I had been dying to visit this hotel and was delighted to hear it had finally reopened after a complete rebuild. It was SO worth the wait! It is hidden away off Highway 200 around an hour and a half south of Puerto Vallarta (an easy drive or they'll come pick you up from PV airport). The entire hotel is... More

Hotelito combines the serenity of a wilderness preserve with the sophistication of world class tourism. The design is unique, and beautifully rendered: the intricate artistry of the woven thatch, the hand-hewn wooden latches, the massive stone base of our cascading double shower, the gloriously huge canopy bed, rimmed by lanterns. Evenings were nothing short of magical, with the paths lit... More

We recently had a delightful stay at Hotelito Desconocido on the Pacific coast of Mexico, about 1.5 hours south of Puerto Vallarta. Recently completely renovated, the Hotelito seduced us with it's tranquility and charm. The staff was extremely accommodating, the food was excellent, and the setting sublime. Be forewarned that there are no electrical appliances in any of the rooms... More

We are just back from 5 days at Hotelito. This place has just reopened after a complete re-build and they have done an amazing job- If you want a luxury back to nature, relaxed, barefoot vacation this is the one. No electricity, no air-con, no cell phone reception, no motorised waterspouts- this place is not for everyone but this is... More

We are from Ibiza, Spain, and went to Hotelito Desconocido because our travel advisor told us amazing things about this hotel, that is a destination by itself. We never thought that could be a place like Hotelito Desconocido, an authentic green luxury, with exterior bamboo shower in room, king bed and walls furnishe with Mexican art & crafts. It was...

I went to this hotel in August for my sisters wedding and i think there should be a couple things people should know before spending the money. We first went on the off season so it was extremely hot! One day it reached 103 and that would not be a big deal if there was air conditioning but its all... More

We stayed here in August for a wedding that was held on the beach. The weather was hot hot hot and humid. One of the wedding guests had actually a heatstroke from standing in the sun while watching the ceremony. We were dismayed, but not surprised! Even though this sounds tough, the good news is that the pool is a... More

This is a unique property. Gorgeous setting. Very attententive staff. Outstanding food (much of the greens from their own gardens). A wonderful atmosphere, especially before dinner in the Common Room. In particular, the staff paid great attention to our two-year-old, washing sippy-cups, moving her chair over to the Ocean-side each day for lunch, and installing a screen around the rustic... More

Went to El Hotelito after having heard excellent comments about it, and must say it overmet our expectations. The concept is very well developed, it is very intimate and all the services were of excellent quality.
