    Perfect couples retreat.

    This was an amazing resort. Clean. Fancy. The food was TOP SHELF! WOW- just delicious! We did find it was a great place for a couples trip, nice and mellow, but I would not recommend if you are looking for a party or active night life. Many said the beach was too rocky. We found it a lot of fun. Loved the waves. And it wasn't too hard on the feet or anything, you just had to watch for the reef. The action of it all was great. We also did a private dinner on the beach- which was so special. Not only delicious, but beautiful and very personal. The spa was beautiful. And rooms were spacious. The staff was attentive. We will definitely keep Secrets on our list of resorts to keep trying, and would return to this one. We opted for the Preferred upgrade, which I strongly recommend as the floor 8 pool was AMAZING.

    Very Disappointing Stay – Cheap Practices, Poor Service, and Misleading Pricing

    I’ve stayed at properties from this chain before and had good experiences, and even the Vallarta Bay location nearby is solid — but this specific Secrets Bahía Mita branch is on a completely different (and much worse) level. Several pools were closed, and even the open ones didn’t follow the posted hours. We were yelled at to leave the pool almost three hours early while quietly relaxing. Service throughout the resort was extremely slow; getting someone at the beach or pool often took over an hour. Drinks weren’t made with the bottles shown on the menu and instead used cheap liquor you could immediately taste. The food was also subpar — bland, repetitive, and far below what you’d expect for the price. Spa pricing felt misleading, with changing list prices and restrictions depending on what you asked for. And throughout the stay, we were constantly approached for upsells, making it hard to truly relax. What really stood out was the atmosphere among staff — many seemed frustrated or overworked, and you could hear them openly complaining to each other. It clearly reflects deeper management issues, because the entire resort feels focused on cutting corners rather than delivering a good guest experience. Overall, the location is beautiful, and this hotel should be great — but the way it’s currently run makes it one of the most disappointing stays I’ve had. I wouldn’t recommend Secrets Bahía Mita until management seriously improves its operations.

    Went for the wedding, got amazing views and service

    Went here for a wedding. The staff were amazing and attentive. The room was clean and inviting. Room service was fairly prompt but the food was really good. The beach area was amazing and you could play volleyball or just rest/relax. The pool/bar areas were kept clean and tidy. Totally worth the amount for all inclusive.

    The Best Resort Ever

    If you are looking for a high end resort this is it. I can’t describe how much I enjoyed this resort. My family and friends were in awe of how gorgeous this place was. Very good food and the rooms were very nice. There was someone always available to get us drinks or food. We chose preferred club which gave us lots of extra bonuses. We were very well taken care of. I came here for my wedding and I could not have asked for a better place. Patricia made my wedding dreams come true. Would highly recommend.

    7 days of excellent weather

    very clean resort. the attention to customer experience was outstanding. beautiful ambiance all around. we stayed for 7 days and enjoyed the spa the most followed by the roof top pool near Olio. we were lucky enough to see the early arrival of humpback whales; they were in the bay everyday right in front of us!
