The room was very clean, staff was friendly & pool was not too busy. We experienced a lot of noise being the first room on 3 off the mall. Next door was noisy at times too. Not sure about how we like the intent to move to an all inclusive as we like various restaurants in the harbor.

Property was good but had some small issues. Small things were broken, like the lock on our door and our room safe. But, the service staff was amazing and the pool was great. View from our balcony was also worth the price.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The staff is what makes this property exceptional—especially Gaby and Antonio, who work in the pool area. They remembered our names and made us feel genuinely welcomed each day. The hotel is currently undergoing a remodel, so a few facilities, including one of the large restaurants, were temporarily closed. Note, that PV is a party destination and while staying anywhere you are exposed to loud music into the evening.
