“The boutique hotel sits nicely in the Zona Romantica, and the design emphasizes an authentically Mexican aesthetic; I especially appreciate the vibrant use of color and art throughout the property. I think this is a particularly fine choice for couples and younger travelers seeking a social atmosphere and wellness options, along with easy access to the area's restaurants and nightlife. Overall, I find it a particularly appealing option in Puerto Vallarta.”
