Garlands Del Rio is a wonderful place to stay if you're looking for a cozy, intimate vibe in Puerto Vallarta. The hotel boasts a quaint setting right by the river, and I loved how quickly I was greeted with delicious guacamole and margaritas. The rooms are comfortable and unique, making my stay truly enjoyable. However, I have to note that the dining options could be further enhanced to make the experience even better. Overall, I felt safe, well cared for, and will absolutely return.

Staying at this boutique hotel was an incredible experience! I loved how it felt unique and intimate, despite being larger than its sister property. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and the location right on the river offered a serene escape from the busy parts of town. However, it can be a bit loud at times due to its central location, and I wish the dining options had more variety.

This hotel boasts a prime location in the Romantic Zone, ideal for those wanting to immerse themselves in Puerto Vallarta's vibrant activities. The unique rooms and charming ambiance are standout features, though be prepared for some natural elements like geckos that might disrupt your sleep. The staff is incredibly accommodating and helpful, adding to the overall great experience. The breakfast served along the lovely riverside terrace is a real treat.
