Fodor's "Silky sheets and cozy down duvets, multiple ceiling fans, and large flat-screen TVs are a few of the creature comforts that set Velas apart from the rest." Full review

"The gardens and grounds are still charming, the pools (with a lazy river) and recreational options are excellent, and the restaurants are hitting on all cylinders." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A handsome 10-acre, beachfront, all-suite hotel built in a horseshoe shape. Impeccably kept, with beautiful marble floors, pastel walls, Huichol art, and Mexican textiles."
Star Service "On the beach, within walking distance of both the marina and 18-hole golf course, this is a classic international tropical resort, capably run and service-oriented." Full review

Because of landscaping, request a room above the third or fourth floor for the best ocean views.

Concierge "You reach its aeries by... riding up with your luggage on a burro. But the solitude, the laid-back vibe, and the hand-crushed strawberries in your daiquiri make it worth all the effort."
Fodor's "Understated luxury and an open-to-nature building design describe this eight-suite boutique property located in a jungle about an hour south of Vallarta." Full review
Frommer's "Verana is a secluded retreat tucked in the hills overlooking sleepy Yelapa, a natural paradise with spectacular views of the tropical landscape and ocean before it." Full review
Gayot "This secluded boutique resort and spa overlooks the Bay of Banderas just south of Puerto Vallarta and can only be reached by boat."
Travel + Leisure "The eco-friendly accommodations are simple, but have everything you need to relax in comfort, and the welcoming staff is on-hand to arrange picnics, mezcal classes, and fishing adventures"
