My return to Playa Los Arcos Hotel Beach Resort & Spa was a nostalgic event, my fifth visit in 12 years. The resort consistently impresses with cleanliness, exceptional staff, and prime location. The property's hygiene is impeccable, thanks to hardworking staff who strive for attention to detail. The staff are exceptional, friendly, professional, and attentive. Their dedication ensures a smooth stay with no issue too big or small. The location is unbeatable, safe, walkable, and close to restaurants, attractions, and transportation options. Dining at Mi Pueblito Restaurant as part of the all-inclusive is impressive, offering diverse culinary offerings that cater to every taste preference. The comfortable beds ensure restful nights' sleep. However, two minor issues arose: lack of hot water for showering and a room door not fitting properly. Despite these inconveniences, my stay was outstanding. I highly recommend Playa Los Arcos to anyone seeking a memorable Puerto Vallarta getaway. If future upgrades or renovations are planned, I encourage the hotel management to address these minor issues to ensure continued satisfaction from long-time guests like myself.

The property needs a huge upgrade. The bathrooms are dirty and smell of mold. We didn't get our room cleaned daily or our water The towels were old and discolored. An item went missing the first day Called maintenance to fix the edge and thrg never came. The balcony door handle was hanging off. Overall a great location but I would not recommend staying

old buildings with mexican architecture. Buffet food got a little boring but we also went out for some meals. Staff was awesome. Sure we tipped which was much appreciated. Location, location, location. Right in the middle of the Romantic Zone

Property is overcrowded. A lot of small children screaming and playing.. which is what they should do.. but nowhere to just relax. Noisy all the time.. only one restaurant with the all inclusive package.. food was ok.. not a lot of options. Service at restaurant terrible. I always had to flag someone down for a beverage. Sometimes the servers just standing around in a huddle talking and joking, while I waited for someone to assist.. I had 2 alcoholic beverages the entire time I was at the hotel. Bar by the pool always busy and always had to wait. Alcoholic drinks were not very good. ate outside the resort most of the time. Better service. I paid all inclusive.. not worth it.. Front desk staff not friendly at all..the place is older but clean. Never had hot water and the water pressure was really low. Always a line at the front desk when I wanted to report an issue..Elevator went up to I think the 3rd floor?(2nd? Can’t remember ) Then I had to climb a couple of set of stairs to get to our room.. rooms need some work.. great view from our little balcony.. Would not stay here again..

Kids pool was nice, food was decent and the restaurants in the area were good. Walkable to el malecon. Power went out our last day, scorching hot inside our room, couldn’t sleep comfortably or even take a shower to be comfortable on our flight. Rooms were not very nice

Playa Los Arcos is our favorite place to stay in Puerto Vallarta!! It is in a great location and a great price. We stayed in remodeled rooms and they were great!! The food has improved since the last time. The beach has eroded a lot, so its really rocky. Some of the property does need some improvements.
