“All‑inclusive beachfront resort with family‑friendly amenities in Puerto Vallarta”
Set in a private cove at the base of the Sierra Madre with all 444 rooms facing the ocean, this Hilton consistently earns praise for warm, attentive service and a strong spa. It's a polished, mainstream all-inclusive that works well for families and couples who want a real Puerto Vallarta location rather than a remote resort strip.
Food & drink
StandoutMultiple standout à la carte venues anchor a genuinely strong culinary program, with Maxal (Mexican, tableside guacamole), La Luce (Italian) and Cocomar leading the pack. Buffet quality holds up across a week's stay and kitchens accommodate dietary requests without fuss.

Beach
StrongPunta Negra is a protected, private cove with calm water ideal for kids and swimmers who don't want to fight surf. The tradeoff: it's contained, so long shoreline walks aren't on the menu.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Protected cove, no waves
- Clean and private feel
- Safe swimming for children
Heads up
- Contained beach, no long walks
- Not for guests who need ocean surf
The resort fronts a small private cove beach backed by palms, with calmer water than many open Pacific beaches in the area though waves and undertow can still pick up seasonally.
