My wife (Mexican, 28) and I (German, 31) spent the last week of January 2009 in the Presidente, our decision was based mainly on the helpful reviews by other travelers (on TripAdvisor). There is not much to add to the previous reviews - it is definitely a quiete, very lovely place south of Puerto Vallarta - except one thing: the... more

We booked with Air Transat all inclusive and flew with West jet from Abbottsford. West jet was a nice upgrade than sky service. We chose to change hotels @ the last minute because of reviews @ the Barceló of people getting sick. We arrived around 10pm and were greeted by the bell hop very friendly and personal. (He was a... more

We just returned from a great relaxing week at the Presidente, myself and my wife. This was my 5th time to Mexico and 3rd to P.V. Our aim was a quiet romantic resort and this is exactly what we got. Lovely hotel - we were upgrade to a junior suite- the room was large, clean and comfortable with a fantastic... more

We loved this hotel because it provided exactly what we needed - a quiet getaway. It is located at the far south end of the city, away from the crowds and noise of the main strip of hotels, yet it is a short taxi ride into town if you want a different restaurant or shopping. A waiter in town told... more

We had a wonderful month vacation at the Presidente. The rooms and bathrooms are very large, the front desk staff very helpful in making dinner reservations, beautiful private beach and quiet pool. We took the local bus to town each evening which is so convenient and reasonable and it only takes about 15 minutes. The town has many excellent restaurants... more

I just got back from an eight night stay at the Presidente InterContinental Puerto Vallarta. Overall, it is a very nice hotel. Clean and spacious rooms, great ocean view, decent pool, quiet location. The only restaurant I ate at was the pool restaurant for lunch. Very good food with resort prices. There are a ton of great restaurants in Puerto... more

Pushy and expensive. Two words to describe the attitude and theme of the Intercontinental in Puerto Vallarta. A very small lunch and a beer near the pool cost $60. Staff were grumpy and annoyed with the slightest request and constantly pushed expensive services onto you. The private beach was beautiful however but the rooms were very standard (to even make... more

I just returned from a one week stay at the Presidente and had a wonderful time. I am a bit surprised to read of the recent comments from those who were displaced and quite critical of the hotel staff as my experiences over the years have been outstanding at this hotel. Since the old Camino Real Hotel sold out to... more

We stayed or rather didn't stay on November 8, 2008. After a long cab drive, this is located south of most of the hotels, we came to a beautiful hotel. My friends and I had reserved two rooms with them. The view was jaw dropping. We were very excited to stay here. However when we got there, the manager took... more
