Oct 12, 2025Such High Quality and Service!
It was the nicest resort I've ever been to! Everything was top notch, the food, service, activities, spacious room with a tub, amazing gym, the biggest spa I've ever seen and was one of the best massages I've ever had, including a one hour aqua therapy before the massage. Loved the yoga and Sup yoga classes. So fun! We loved every minute of it. Snack bar had fresh cut lamb gyros at it, every meal we had was delicious. Guava margaritas are where its at!!

Nice resort
Had a great time and the resort is well kept and clean. Staff was very attentive and restaurants were on par with all inclusive resorts. Too pushy with the sales meeting pitch, no means no.

Beautiful compact resort!
Secrets Vallarta Bay was beautiful. The compact resort has a lot to offer. We had a great 4 day stay where the staff made us feel welcomed and assisted us with every need. Jose Becerra was such a great host, he assisted us when the air did not work in our room. We had a new room by the time we returned from dinner. He made reservations for us and walked us to our restaurant every evening. I can brag on Jose all day! The staff were so kind and always smiling. The grounds are so pretty and very well maintained. Jose Luis Orozco from the Unlimited Club was very helpful with our entire stay. We were treated like special guest all 4 days. It was a great get away.

Adrian in the market cafe was fantastic, I would recommend everyone to at least one time during their stay to served by him. The market cafe as a whole is phenomenal, food was great my wife and I ate here every day.
