First off the rooms and the property are beautiful. The concerns I had related to deceptions and poor service. We were advised by the resort that if we let them transport us from the airport to the hotel it would save us money (we spent $40 for that vs $18 on taxi we got on our own for the way... More

My experiences at Garza Blanca exceeded expectations by leaps and bounds. The property is gorgeous, with meticulous care and attention to detail. Checking in was great - instead of the common "stand in line in front of a huge desk", you are seated at a single desk with someone to go through the process. It's much more relaxing then the...

Beautiful, Great Staff, PERFECT BEACH, away from the city. Only bummer was that there was no Wifi in rooms, just a Ethernet cord. Otherwise perfect! More

From the moment that we stepped foot into Garza Blanca I thought we were in paradise. The hotel is breathtaking, we stayed in a regular room with two queen beds, it was a perfect size with a hammock on the balcony. When we arrived we opted to take the all inclusive option but after 3 days decided that it was... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at Garza Blanca in early April. This was our first visit to Puerto Vallarta and we actually cancelled a reservation at the Westin to take advantage of the "Romantic Package" that Garza Blanca offered. Overall, we had an amazing vacation at the Garza Blanca. Although we had a great time, we would say that they... More

There were a number of hotels we could have stayed at in P.V. but I chose this one based on the pictures and the reviews. It did not disappoint. The grounds were immaculate and picturesque. We were greeted by a friendly host who immediately served us cucumber margaritas on the house. She gave us great recommendations on where to eat,... More

Garza Blanca is the place to stay if you are in PV. A very private resort away from the tourists. Only about a 10 minute taxi ride into the downtown area. The beach is only for hotel guests, and often times we would be the only ones there. The service is great, the food is good. The restaurant could be... More

In one word, Amazing! We are a young couple and we went with my parents and two younger siblings (18, 22). As soon as you get out of customs you are welcomed by someone who takes you out to wash with a nice cool towel and out to the hotel. By the way, don't stop for anything until you see... More

After much research we finally decided on the Garza Blanca when after wavering between three hotels Jetsetter offered a great deal we couldn't pass up! Upon our arrival we were greeted with some of the most delicious cucumber margarita's I have ever tasted and great hospitality. Our room was very nice and the hammock on the balcony with the sound...

This was our second stay at Garza Blanca. The first time around, we gave it 5 stars, and had been considering buying. So let's go through this step-by-step. This purpose of this trip was to celebrate my husband's birthday. We were so impressed with Garza Blanca the first time, that we decided to return. Whenever I plan a trip (especially... More
