Judy & Maria's Summation of the Marival Resort and Suites

 

The Marival Resort,in our opinion, is one the most spectacular hotels in Nuevo Vallarta that offers something for everyone!  The newly renovated club suites are exquisite & decorated tastefully in cool earth tones. The suites are spacious and comfortable. The hotel is located beachfront, only ten minutes from Puerto Vallarta International Airport & 20 minutes from downtown Puerto Vallarta, in the Bay of Banderas, with one of the best & largest beaches in the bay.
 

Dining:  The dining & food presentations are beautiful and are a gastronomical delight.  Whether dining at the one of the buffets or at the a la carte restaurants, guests will enjoy to the max the superb selections offered.  Of particular note is the outdoor brick pizza oven -- the pizza was to die for!  We noticed the chef was working diligently to keep up with the demand for the pizza.

 
Beach: The beach is one of the best beaches in Nuevo Vallarta.  We noticed guests walking the beach from early morning until late evening.  There are plenty of palapas on the beach for shade & relaxing with a cool drink &d relaxing with the sounds & views of the sea.  Maria & I walked the beach and shopped at one of the craft shops located along the beach.
 
Four expansive pools feature something for everyone.  The children's water park is spectacular! Mom & Dad will be able to relax in a lounge while observing the children. The activities pool with swim-up bar is fun, yet relaxing providing guests with ample lounges and palapas.  The adults only pool with swim-up bar & Jacuzzi is relaxing and so enjoyable.  And finally, the adult-only pool is a quiet solace for all.
 
Children's and Teen's Programs:  The children's program will enable the youngsters to spend structured days provided with activities of all sorts and the new Teen's Program, including the rock climbing wall, is a wonderful addition to the Marival's day & evening activities.
 
Weddings: Your wedding will be memorable -- a truly tropical Mexican setting with the finest amenities.  The wedding coordinator will walk you through every step, making your special day one of dreams & memories. So easy, so breathtaking.

Consumer Testimonials

Hello,

I just want to take a minute to thank you for arranging such a great holiday for my family.  Everything went perfectly, the travel, the accommodations at the Marival, & the weather.  Great Job!!

The Marival was just outstanding!  When we check in, they upgraded us to a suite & a room, which worked out so perfectly as we used the living area of the suite as the staging point for the whole family to congregate to decide what we were going to be doing that day.

The Marival had the best accommodations, food, and entertainment that we have experienced.  All day long, no matter where we went, we had food & beverage available, & it was all so well prepared and tasteful.  Our grandson, Mckinley loved the pools & the ocean.  The ocean was the "Big Wawie", and the first words out of his mouth in the morning were, "Big Wawie!"

This will be a vacation the family will fondly remember always, & I want to thank you again for making it all possible.  Please convey our thanks to the Marival also,

Sincerely,

The Waite's, Ned, Cindy, Bryan, Katrina, Brett, Amy & most of all McKinley
Boulder, Colorado
