I just returned home for a 7 day vacation at Marival with my boyfriend and I have to say it was the WORST vacation I have ever taken! I booked the trip hoping for some time to rest and relax and I returned home more frustrated and exhausted than when I left. We booked a 1br suite over looking the... More

so this is our second trip to the west coast and it turned out better from last time. Maybe because I lowered my expectations a little compared to last trip at Riu Jalisco. Anyway I think this was a good trip. The water slides are a big hit with the kids which in turn keeps the adult pool more "quiet".... More

We first wrote a review for the Marival on this site in 2007 and we have been back almost every year since. Depending on what you are looking for the Marival can be your little slice of Heaven or just another Mexican resort. We always tell people: don't expect US or Canadian standards here, it's MEXICO! Remember that and you... More

The staff was top notch, place was clean, someone was always cleaning, sweeping. The bellboys were always helping with getting a cab, directions or opening doors. The food was fantastic.
