Sadly I have to say that we didn't enjoy our trip to the Careyes Club & Residences at all. The location is of course special and the architecture of the whole area is wonderful. The rooms are nice but basic & pricy. But that's where the magic ends. The beaches are not really to swim at all. Pools are good. But the worst is the costumer service. I had to ask for everything several times and in the end 4/5 replies I got were wrong. One of the most embarrassing moments was that they had an cocktail party planned in one of the beautiful villas in Careyes. I asked twice in the reception if really everyone is allowed to attend the cocktail party. "Of course, it's for all the guests"...so I asked for the directions, I got transferred to a Manager who explained me how to get there and I asked again, if we really could go there. As they had a flyer in the receptions advertising this event. 2h later we drove to the villa. What took us nearly 30 min because of the difficult roads....as soon we entered the property we some guests looking at us with disgust and a woman approached us, telling us that we are not allowed to be here. This is a private property. Then I mentioned the event advertised by the hotel. But she replied me that this event was canceled. I mentioned that I just spook to the manager of the Hotel and who even confirmed me the event 2h ago. She then replied me..ooh then he most likely didn't received the e-mail. Honestly we felt like complete idiots. IMO you should not travel to Careyes if you can not effort to rent villa for 8 -12k a night. If not you're treated like a second-class guest visiting Hollywood. I'm very sad we lost our time and money visiting this place. Not worth the hype at all.…

We stayed in a casita overlooking the beach and resort during our wonderful stay at this place in paradise. The casita itself was huge and really well appointed. The rework magnificent. Safe, clean and remote. An amazing break from New York.

Hard to get to ...you can arrive by boat ...well managed and friendly ...food is pretty good..not fabulous. Guess every place is different ..I had two bedrooms and a living room and kitchen and terrace ...everything including the pool & beach is a few steps away. Very quiet ...no real town and a 3 hour drive from Puerto Vallarta airport. A little like “glamping”... quiet. Fairly Expensive .

We rented Coco Beach unit , Perfection!!! The Unit is decorated with incredible taste, luxurious and sober at the same time, the views from both sides are breathtaking, one side in jungle and the front looks over the pools and ocean view amazing sunsets... As if that was not enough, Brenda who cleans and cooks for you is absolutely wonderful, I wish I could bring her to the states and work for us! The whole place is air conditioned , Sonos sound system and TV everything ( if you find the time to watch it!) I’m reluctant to write a review as I want it to be available whenever I want to visit! Careyes is a very special place, but only for those who can have a good time on their own... If you are looking for crazy nightlife and shopping, move on to Puerto Vallarta! Hasta muy pronto Careyes ❤️…

When you Google Careyes which is located on Mexico´s Pacific Coast you are flooded with news stories and articles about this exotic and magical spot which is one of the worlds most coveted destinations among the cognoscenti, with an unparalleled list of VIP and celebrity visitors who come to enjoy the amazing setting and quality of life. In the words of Gian Franco Brignone, “Careyes is a guarded secret only known by special people.” Careyes is a lifestyle and a magical one at that. Guests are graciously welcomed and the setting offers stunning clear Azul Water, pristine beaches and impressive Architecture at every turn. Most noted for their unique architecture are the areas Castles (or in Spanish Castillos) which dot the landscape. Each Castle offers a full staff that will make sure that your every need is attended to. One of the Castles is Castillo Sol de Occidente where I recently stayed. This 6 bedroom Estate offers in addition to its own private beach, movie screening room and Heliport, one of the most commanding views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding areas to be had. The staff of 5 is without question superb. One of the newer enclaves in Careyes are the Constellation Villas – 3 stunning Mini Estates properties that are each about 7000 square feet with a full staff. You can also enjoy the feel of Careyes and enjoy all that it has to offer in two of the smaller properties. The Casitas – With its crow´s eye view of Playa Rosa these units stand strong on their own. A short walk from the Casitas is the famed Playa Rosa Beach and Beach Club. Breakfast at the Beach Club is even included in the nightly rate which starts at $400.00 per night. There are one, two, three and four bedroom units available some of which have a private pool. In the Casitas, the Concierge can arrange a massage or even a Personal Chef. The Bungalows – Barefoot Chic best describes these units! Three units located directly on the beach and next door to the Playa Rosa Beach Club. Ideal for enjoying the water, sun, fun and activities during the day and the stars at night. Costa Careyes has a Polo Club where tournaments are held from November to April and visitors can enjoy, at no charge, exciting games between Polo teams who come to Careyes from around the world to play. A wedding at Costa Careyes is a truly wonderful and unforgettable experience. The private grounds of Careyes are adjacent to a nature preserve and the location is perfectly situated to enjoy the magnificent Pacific Ocean sunsets. Costa Careyes would be a highly desirable destination for small and intimate weddings with guests staying within the Resort in the nearby casitas and Villas. In summary, Careyes should be on everyone´s Travel Wish List. A visit to this sanctuary is one that you are your family will remember for a lifetime. Costa Careyes Resort is located just 1 hour & 15 minute drive north from Manzanillo International Airport and 2 hours & 30 minute drive south from Puerto Vallarta International Airport…

One of our very best experiences in Mexico. Casita Tucan is a well decorated two bedroom two level small house overlooking the Pacific Ocean. You should take the delicious meals served at Playa Rosa Restaurant.

We were quite nervous whether this place will live up to our expectation. We understood that the casitas were built +20 years ago, but friends who know us recommended them to us and they were right. This is a wonderful place. We stayed at a two bedroom Casita called Tucan. This place felt brand new, the furniture, the kitchen, the bathrooms and the pool. The view is stunning and you can not get enough admiring the sunset from your terrasse or sitting in the pool. The private beach is awesome too.

I stayed in this hotel for 6 weeks twice for business. I enjoyed every day of it. It was the people and the staff that made the experience what it was was. So much so that I came back for my wedding, brought all my friends, and tried to share my experience. Haven't been back for a few years but long for the quiet, sunny days in careyes. I have such fond memories of the staff, the locals, and all of my experiences in this hotel. It holds a special place.
