Nov 11, 2025Wonderful workcation
Everyone at Sunscape PVR was amazing. Kathia and Alex were great at answering emails and ensuring a special anniversary surprise from the concierge. On-site, Coral was the most amazing, engaging, and lovable concierge ever. But the people I truly want to recognize are the team at your Da Mario restaurant. We bought a Chef's special dinner and asked for it to be hosted there. (To be honest, your romantic dinner menu here is lacking)—and it was the best decision ever. From the moment we arrived, Captain Ricardo treated us like royalty. Our table was privately set in the wine cellar, romantically decorated. He gave us welcome cocktails and had a bottle of bubbly white wine already chilled. He knew we had a special dish paid for but offered us appetizers and anything else we wanted from his own menu. When it was time for the main dish to be served, Chef Jesus Jalomo came personally to explain the dish and to tell us the process behind the modifications he made to make it safe for me, as I have several allergies. Usually, restaurants just remove the problematic items. Not here. Chef Jalomo went above and beyond to make sure I could enjoy the experience. Our waiter, Lemus, and the captain were alert and attentive throughout the whole meal. We were so comfortable and everything was so on point that we stayed until closing time. They also gave us a dessert sampler with a "Happy Anniversary" message on it. We decided to dine at Da Mario on our second night. No extra fee, nothing extra paid. The captain and his team again gave us the same romantic space in the wine cellar, recommended dishes that weren't on the menu, and made everything absolutely amazing. We decided to go back on our third night, and they didn't disappoint. We even got a flambé coffee from the captain. That man is an absolute treasure. Sunscape Puerto Vallarta gave us a good experience overall, but Da Mario? That was the best experience we've ever had at one of your properties and deserves recognition.

Nov 09, 2025Sunscape Review
My wife and I went to celebrate our anniversary. The resort made us feel very welcomed and assisted any ways they could. The hotel itself is ok. It is in a good spot, located centrally between airport and downtown areas. It has its imperfections and does need an update. The staff is helpful and more times than not, have great attitudes. The clientele is mostly local vacationers or people there for events. It made the pool experience very nice as more people were laughing, dancing and conversing. Bars are ok, limited on choices for liquors. So if you want an upper echelon spirit, probably won’t have. Best restaurant is the Italian spot. Don’t eat at the Mexican spot. For breakfast the buffet is serviceable. We did go find plenty of spots within a quick Uber/taxi trip. All in all, fun spot to vacation, allowed us to not only stay at the resort but experience Puerto Vallarta.

Nov 09, 2025Do not wast your money.
It was dingy, the food was horrible, and the service was lackluster. We never did see the bottom of the 5 foot pool because it was so cloudy. The one nicer restaurant had okay food, and service, but there was no air conditioning. I was seating while trying to enjoy my meal. It was so hot and stuffy.
