This resort is beautiful, the location was perfect for us. The rooms were very clean and well kept during our stay. We did the upgrade and were placed on the 8th floor. The view alone was worth the upgrade. The upgrade gave us unlimited access to the reservation system as well as a key to the platinum bar. We found... more

This place is just horrible. Their service was painfully slow and rude. I cannot overstate how bad their service is. The drinks and food were poor at best. The location is good, but beyond that this place sucks. This is a well located 1or 2 star hotel. more

My fiance and I visited this resort in July of '09 for 5 nights. We read tons of reviews here on tripadvisor and were convinced this would be a great fun resort to celebrate my b-day but it wasn't as advertised. Let me begin by pointing out a few things from reading various reviews. - People say they've been to... more

The Hospitality was honestly bad from the very Entrance/Gate, moving on to the horrible Front Desk/Reception, the Food and the fact that they have a Public Beach is pretty bad. No privacy.

On arrival to the resort we were met by a glass of sparkling wine. Upon check in we asked about getting a room upgrade. The front desk clerk (Antonio) was very pleasant and more than helpful. He hooked us up with the front desk manager (Ceasar) who showed us around the complex and let us tour all the room upgrades... more

I love Puerto Vallarta for the food, the people, and the sunsets... this hotel had all three! During my 8 day stay in August 2009 the Barcelo La Jolla de Mismaloya met and exceeded my travel expectations for the following reasons: 1. Location - I am quite familiar with Vallarta (7th visit in 4 years.) There are basically 3 options... more

My wife and I took our 17 year old son to Barcelo La Jolla De Mismaolya for our first trip to Mexico. We had a great experience! We could have never left the resort and had a blast, but we set up tours and activities with Funjet upon arrival and glad we did. The resort is north of town so... more
