We recently came back from our fourth visit to the Grand Velas and each time it does more to impress us. We arrived for a week the day before the unrest in PV. The entire staff worked tirelessly throughout our stay to make sure we and all of the other guests felt safe and well cared for. They really did not miss a beat. This was especially meaningful as we knew many of them and their families live in and around PV. The food, once again, was consistently excellent and the amenities are always top notch. But it is the staff that makes the Grand Velas such a gem. Whether it was Jesus and Fabiola when we booked, Cheppe, checking in on us daily, Gustavo finding us pool chairs, Zenon and Leonel, making sure we were never hungry or thirsty at the pool, or Maria keeping our suite immaculate, each of them treated us with the warmth and hospitality that we have come to expect at the Grand Velas. We can’t wait until our next visit!

We are currently staying at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit in Puerto Vallarta and felt it was important to share our experience for other families who may be wondering about safety when travelling here. From the moment we landed, everything has felt calm, organized, and welcoming. There have been absolutely no signs of unrest, and we have felt very safe throughout our trip. What has stood out the most is the incredible staff at Grand Velas. They have truly gone above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, especially while travelling with our child. Every interaction has been warm, helpful, and attentive, and it’s clear the staff genuinely care about their guests. In a world that can sometimes feel uncertain, it has been such a relief to come somewhere where we can relax and feel completely safe as a family. If you’re considering travelling to Puerto Vallarta with kids and are feeling hesitant, our experience at Grand Velas has been overwhelmingly positive. We are very grateful to the wonderful staff who have made this trip so special for our family.

We love it here! We have been enjoying Grand Velas for 3 years Best service the food is spectacular. We enjoy the views in the oceanfront rooms. Rooms are laid out perfectly and the balcony is awesome place to sit and look at the ocean or read a book. The cabanas down on the beach are very comfortable. Can’t wait to go back and have Luis take care of us again!

We stayed at the Grand Velas in Nayarit for 6 days for my Birthday and had a fantastic time. The hotel is perfectly located right in of the beach. The breakfast buffet was a highlight—so many fresh, delicious options. There are multiple dinner spots that you can book that are extremely amazing. My favorite is the Asian and French. All inclusive resort makes life a lot easier. Special thanks to the housekeeping team for keeping our room immaculate from the Morning and Until we came back for the Night Highly recommend. Our sweet was beautiful with an upstairs jacuzzi which was beautiful private, and relaxing for me and my partner. This is my 3rd time at the Grand Velas in Nayarit and I will continue to go. A HUGE special thank you to Luis for making my birthday trip spectacular. Luis checked up on me periodically to make sure I was ok, and if he could make any appointments or dinner reservations for my stay. Staff was very considerate throughout my stay. This resort made me feel very safe. I would recommend this place to everyone. 10/10 and I will continue to come back. Thank you!!!! 🙏🏼

We just returned from Grand Velas and once again enjoyed one of the most relaxing vacations ever. The accommodations are absolutely the best for cleanliness and comfort. And, the on site Restaurants were even better than we had remembered. But the Service overshadowed all. We will definitely be returning.

I stayed at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit for two nights and only have wonderful things to say about the property. The staff is absolutely fantastic -- always friendly, well-trained, quick, and ready to help with anything. Everyone gets a "personal concierge" who was a real time-saver for dinner reservations, spa appointments, and general questions. The spa is clean and the treatments I had (massage, facial, and hydrotherapy circuit) were wonderful, but the hydrotherapy pool area is showing its age just a bit. Because this is the oldest Grand Velas property, I was expecting it to feel a bit run down, but it did not show its age at all. The gym is especially modern.
My suite was "resort view" but I could clearly see the ocean beyond the pool without having to crane my neck or unpack the binoculars. It is most definitely a family-friendly resort, but the adults-only areas are separate and quite relaxing. Pool and beach service are top-notch. Food quality was very good, especially the Mexican restaurant and pool/beach options. The breakfast buffet could be a bit more exciting, but I'm not a fan of buffets... if you just want an omelet, opt for room service, which is lovely. I highly recommend this resort, especially for families, but couples and singles will also love it. It's worth the price and it is a real 5-star luxury property.

Just wanted to let your staff know that after 6 nights at the Grand Velas we didn't want to leave. The staff was very attentive and the food in all three restaurants was delicious. Our room was very contemporary with a Mexican feel. We were able to lie in bed and see the ocean. I would highly recommend it and have already.
