Our stay was truly incredible! The service was impeccable, making us feel welcome and looked after at every turn. The vast and beautiful resort felt almost private due to its low occupancy, and the activities for the kids were a big highlight. However, while the dining experience was excellent, the resort's exterior did show some wear and tear.

I had an absolutely amazing time at this resort! The service was outstanding, and the smaller size of the property made it easy to meet new friends. The food was some of the best I've had at an all-inclusive resort, and the heated pools were a fantastic feature. While the beach wasn't ideal and the rooms felt a bit older compared to newer properties, my overall experience was wonderful, and I would return in a heartbeat!

7.2/10

I had a mixed experience at the Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit. The property is beautiful and the service at the fine dining restaurants was absolutely top-notch. However, I encountered issues with large corporate groups that made it less peaceful than I anticipated, and the dining options fell a bit short for the price I paid. Overall, it has its highlights, but I believe there are better options for a relaxing getaway.
