Great family resort. Only complaint was not enough tables in shade areas & ppl would claim them & then not sit at them for hours. Plus only having 2 pool staff who were run off their feet so waiting for food & drinks too a long time. Otherwise great location & fun activities for kids.

This hotel is in very poor condition to stay. We found black mold on the pillows and all behind the headboard of the bed. We left immediately. That is not safe for guests. Hotel refused to refund my money. Do not recommend to anyone, especially if those with health problems.

Location is perfect. Everything is easy access, dining, bars, quick mart, Ubers. Wife and I only stayed 1 night before going to our final destination. Property does need an update, and they need to have someone clean the pools more often. Found many cups of water inside the pool and trash floating around. The dinning and breakfast options are worth it. Food is delicious.

Playa Los Arcos has been our go to hotel for twenty years . Their renovations has made it more expensive but so is the entire area. But it is still worth it . The staff, front desk and food is 5 star. The beach has suffered from the last storm as well. They have j trucked in sand for the beach but swimming and walking in the surf is difficult as the rocks are sharp and dangerous. I highly recommend water shoes to be safe. Nevertheless the hotel is the same wonderful hotel in the best area of Puerto Vallarta.

This was my second stay at Playa Los Arcos and all was well until a mirror (held up with a tacky adhesive) fell and smashed in our room while my boyfriend and I were out of the room. I had went up to grab something before we ventured out for the day and found the mirror shattered on the floor. We promptly reported the incident to the front desk and went on with the day. Upon our return to the hotel, we found a letter saying we must pay 1800 pesos for the broken mirror-which we did not break. We were referred to the concierge and explained the circumstances of the broken mirror again. The concierge seemed empathetic, she took pictures of our room, said the mirror appeared to be held up by super glue and told us not to worry about it. Upon checkout, it was a different story. We had to speak to another concierge who insisted we pay for the broken mirror. I was accused of breaking the mirror and was flabbergasted. After an hour of retelling the same story over and over the manager was finally called. We explained that we paid good money to stay at the hotel, tipped the wait staff generously and would have no problem paying for a broken mirror-had we broken it; it was the principle. We did nothing wrong, wear and tear happened and we refused to be charged for damages we had nothing to do with. The manager conceded and did not charge us, but this took about 6 hours of explaining and disputing. I will never stay at this property again.
