This was my first time in Puerto Vallarta and at this hotel and it definitely will not be my last. The hotel name says it all. The staff, the hospitality, the food, the people, the area, the music and entertainment…..just about everything was absolutely amazing. Thank you Hotel Friendly Fun Vallarta for an amazing time.

The 3 pools are in different areas Adults separated with family and kids Only 1 thing - the inside store and atm machine need to have option for Discovery credit cards Everywhere is Visa & mastercard
Iurie, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Much much better than expected! The location was great, and the property itself was spacious with plenty to enjoy. There was a nice variety of food options, including morning smoothies and ice cream, which was a hit. The entertainment was fun, and the pools were thoughtfully designed— a small kiddie pool, a larger family pool, and two adults-only pools. Our room was quite large and offered a fantastic view of the beach and ocean. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful, and the on-site coffee café was amazing. Would absolutely love to come back again!

Our group of 8 adults had an awesome vacation at Friendly Fun! The staff were great, the food options were varied and very tasty, and the resort is spacious and clean. We spent a ton of time in the adults-only pool, bar, and beach area, which was relaxing, nicely treed to provide some shade, and staffed with a great team of servers and bartenders. Would absolutely recommend a stay at Friendly Fun!

We loved our time here but they could change a couple things. They have no place to play cards and the main area is so noisy chairs and voices echo and are almost unbearable. The food was good, taco restaurant was Awsome. The barbecues were well done, had delicious fish one night, another a fiesta which was great. Didn’t try the specialty restaurants. Found it hard to know how to book these. We were there for 10 days and enjoyed our holliday

10/10 Exceptional

The buffet food selections were good and staff were very helpful in particular the wait staff around the pools and buffets. A la carte selection is limited. The view from the resort is beautiful. There are many options off the resort to walk to or take a taxi too. There is easy access to boat excursions. Evening entertainment was limited most nights to a techno DJ. However there was a fire show one night and a live band without outdoor buffet and flea market that was awesome. I liked that there was the option for a pool for families and pools for adults only along a warmer pool and a hot tub. If you’re a nighthawk or early bird you won’t find too much food or beverages accessible. Loved the cabana set ups in the pool area and then more the the loungers and umbrellas closer to the beach.

Need to improve managing the way to loud music constantly. Annoying! Food has a tendency to be colder than it should be from buffets as well as the restaurants.
Wayne, 10-night trip

Lovely spot. Stayed one night. I appreciate the adult only sections. The food was strange ... Tacos at fiesta were delicious. I loved the spa! Excellent service from Emi.

The staff was excellent, courteous and friendly. Not enough extra curricular activities.
Pamela Suanne, 14-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice location by the beach. Easy to talk to the ocean. Some of the restaurants were good, others were not so great. Not enough room at the pool for the number of guests. It was impossible to get a cabana since people would reserve one and be gone for hours.
Andy, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The main thing, at this resort, I didn’t like was that food in the buffet was always luke warm and the pizza was always cold even slices near the bulb. Other guests I talked to also noticed this so they would get food made fresh at the grill. However I loved the taco restaurant upstairs by the lobby and the outdoor bbqs were great. The oil and vinegar containers on the table needed to be cleaned more often. They had the best margaritas that I’ve had at any resort and I loved warm adult pool temperature. There are lots of shady bed spots if you prefer not to get as much sun. No real card playing tables available… everyone made due with the high long tables in the lobby bar but it was very noisy there at night as sounds echoed. The coffee bar and pastries were great ! The staff is very friendly.
