    Vacation in Puerto Vallarta

    My wife and I spent two awesome weeks at Secrets Vallarta Bay Resort. This was our fifth time staying at this resort because we love it. The location is very nice, the food is very good but it’s the staff and service that keeps us coming back. In the preferred tower you are assigned a service provider. Our assistant, for the last couple years, has been Jose Becerra. Jose is very helpful with any assistance we need. He knows the area well and always has the best recommendations for things to see, places to go and where to eat. Jose treats us like family.

    Good but not great.

    This was not our favorite Secrets/Dreams resort experience. The overall resort is nice, but the adults only Secrets side is not as private as one would hope. The layout puts many rooms too close to the sounds of kids most are trying to escape. The service was great around the pools but not as great when it comes to housekeeping and amenities. The beach is very pretty. Puerto Vallarta is awesome.

    Great views

    We had a great experience at Secrets Vallarta Bay and the value was fine. Aurelio in the pool area and the beach was there for us everyday. He was ready to serve us from 10:30 to 6:30. He did a fantastic job. The room was perfect. The daily turndown service was awesome and the room was cleaned daily. The location was ideal. The adults only side at Secrets was what we were looking for. A perfect atmosphere. We would recommend all the restaurants at both Secrets and Dreams. One morning the whales gave us a show. 8.5 minute video. The only con was the nightly noise of the trucks pumping out the waste system. Very loud.

    Get pampered and relax at Secrets Vallarta Bay

    Very nice resort, clean facilities, amenities and excellent selection of food and beverages, good service overall. Would recommend this resort in Puerto Vallarta. The evening entertainment needs improvement for adults only resort. Special honours to Victor Hugo, UVC representative, and Ivan, gym and entertainment coordinator. Both were very friendly and professional.

    Great as Usual

    A huge thank you to Janna for the amazing SUP yoga sessions — such a fun and relaxing experience on the water! Also, thank you to Jacky for the yoga classes, which were perfectly balanced, calming, and energizing. And a big shout-out to Jimmy from the entertainment team for bringing great energy and making everything even more enjoyable. Truly a fantastic experience all around!
