The shrimp was awesome!! Sake was great. Alberto gave us great service. We tried several dishes and they were all great. This is our 1st time in Peurta Vallarta and this did not disappoint. Try the nigiri sushi!

Hotel's Favorite
Just returned from another great visit to Hard Rock Vallarta. Overall, great food and great service per usual. Upon arrival - we received excellent service from Yami at the vacation planner table as we overwhelmed her booking multiple spa and tasting experiences. We were traveling with a large family so this took quite some time and she was incredibly patient with our many questions, changes, requests, etc. Thank you Yami! I also want to recognize Ale and Carolina from the kids club. My daughter was there every day and they were just the best. She was so excited to see them every day and they made her experience extra special. She regularly talks about going back just because of the kids club. We seemed to see Juan nearly every night when we went to dinner - I assume he is some type of supervisor? He was wonderful - remembered our family, checked in on us, showed us his awesome Hard Rock tattoo, and had nothing but wonderful things to say about his coworkers and employer. It was very refreshing. I had the most wonderful facial from Victoria in the spa. It was exactly what was needed as our week of vacation came to a close. My brother also received a facial from Victoria earlier in the week and raved about her. We lucked out and had two Mexican fiesta nights during our week and both times we had the BEST service from Miranda. He was incredible - making us special drinks that fit our taste, bringing my husband special coffee, and offering to get food for us when he saw us struggling with a fussy baby. Up and beyond service - some of the best we have ever had. He is a gem and should be appreciated for how hard he works. We had particularly great service at Frida as well - with Rosy, Elizabeth and Angeles (I might have spelled that wrong - sorry!) The ladies were fantastic - offering great suggestions and being extremely attentive to our large group. They even helped my daughter practice her Spanish - which made her so happy and giggle with delight. It was by far our favorite meal of the trip. Sergio the sommelier is also fantastic. We did both the wine and tequila tastings with him and had the best time. His passion and enthusiasm for what he does is so evident and he really is a huge asset to this resort. Backing up a second, our check in experience was disappointing - an opportunity for improvement. We booked a family suite, and beforehand, were told verbally that upon arrival, everything would be done to ensure we had an ocean view (these rooms are normally mostly pool view). I said that I was willing to change our booking if necessary to two adjoining rooms (which is basically what a family suite is, lets be real) but was told that shouldn't be necessary. Ocean view was a priority for me personally - I traveled all this way and did NOT want to sit and watch people walking by all day on the ground level. I spent a decent amount of time in the room since we traveled with a young infant who needed multiple breaks/naps. At check in- we were given a ground floor level room and told there was nothing else available. I want to believe them, but this is their slow season, and it was evident that the resort was nowhere near full. What we have come to realize over the years, is that as members, you're often given the worst rooms and have to fight your way for a better room. We tested this theory the last time we came when I booked through the website and my mom booked as a member - same category rooms, and I was given top floor/center/best views of the resort while my mom was placed in a corner with barely ocean view. I get that this is a sales tactic to entice "newbies" to buy into the membership - but its really shameful to treat your members so poorly. Just something to think about Hard Rock... One other opportunity for improvement, I was disappointed with the service we received on our last day when we booked a cabana. We decided to treat ourselves and in the past, have always received stellar service in these settings. This time around, we were rarely checked on, the ice in our water bucket was never refreshed, we felt like we were a bother every time we asked for a drink refill, etc. I don't expect to be treated like royalty or anything, but a little extra attention goes a long way, especially when you're spending extra money on these cabanas. And for the record, although tipping is not required, we tip heavily and frequently, and are happy to do so because the service is usually so good and these people work SO HARD in the heat and conditions, its the least we can do. Overall, wonderful as always. These issues won't stop us from returning, but I do think its worth mentioning so processes can be reviewed and improved upon possibly. :-)

The entire staff went above and beyond during our week. All restaurants were able to accommodate our dietary restrictions with no problem. The cleaning staff did a fantastic job, given that we brought a lot of sand into the room every day after playing Beachvolleyball:-)

Love hard rock experience and the staff. We went on all kinds of excursions. And the staff took care of us and upgraded us to a wonderful stay at a akali beach club! We also went on the city tour and found that to be most enjoyable. The tequila tasting was very professional. All the housekeeping and staff was extremely professional.

Hadn’t been there for two years. Large change in staff, probably because of Covid. Service was excellent as always. I had this feeling that the resort was trying to recover from the COVID shutdown as the pool bar liquor had a smaller selection. They still had a shortage of pool umbrellas. Given the climate this is unsatisfactory. With the Unico resort nearing completion I’m afraid that the beach and the HardRock resort will be overwhelmed as the people that stay at Unico can use the services at HardRock but the people who stay at HardRock can’t use the Unico resort.

Very very helpful and caring staff, took very good care of me when I hurt myself in the pool. Couldn't imagine a better place to spend the week with friends and family. Entertaining nights, comfy rooms, and a beautiful view all week long.

Our family vacation to HRPV was made especially wonderful by the amazing employees at the resort. We had the best butlers to assist us in scheduling spa, pool chair, and dinner reservations. Our butlers kept us informed of daily activities and members events, were always friendly, and stopped by to say hello throughout the day. We are grateful for you, Frank, Uri, Gerardo, and Israel! It was a pleasure to meet all of you. Victor was also a huge help in providing us extra information about excursions, taxi rides, and things to see and do in town. My daily coffee needs were always met with a smile from Mayber at the Cafetto. She ensured that I had the right milk and sugar, offered additional pastries, and held friendly conversations with me. The swim up bar was one of our favorite places, where we got to know the best bartenders: Said, Jarrett, and Jovani. We had so much fun getting to know them. They kept us laughing and kept the drinks coming! The ocean view from our rooms was absolutely stunning. We really enjoyed the sunsets at dinner. The ocean was warm enough to swim in and the sand glittered gold! All of the food from breakfast, snacks, dinner, to room service was all delicious and beautifully presented. The hotel itself was very clean and inviting. We liked that this hotel was smaller than some of the other Hard Rocks. We could get where we wanted to go quickly! Thanks to everyone who made our stay so much fun, we look forward to our next chance to visit! 10/10 would recommend Hard Rock Puerto Vallarta to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing beach getaway!
