"Fun times and the best margueritas ever!!"

"What a Hidden Gem"

This resort is a real hidden gem. From the onset the lobby is great and was recently refurbished. The resort itself is a little dated and so first impressions were a little skeptical. After needing to change room intially, Raul made this an easy and seemless service everything beyond this was A+. There are 3 heated pools offering ample room for even a fully booked resort. The temperature and heat was perfect and cleanliness was tip notch. Daniel was absolutely amazing for pool service, attention to detail, very polite and friendly and was always making sure we had what we needed. The poolside food was also amazing, very well cooked and great selections including a entire vegan selection. The food at the restaurants was also amazing, Jorge who wasnt always our waiter really went out of his way to look after us. Sandra who serviced our room was amazing too. These are just a few names but we had amazing service throughout and will definitely be coming back. Its clear to see many staff members have been working here for a number of years and I feel this is what makes the resort head and shoulders above the rest. Thanks for such a great vacation, we'll be back to see you all again

Second 10 day stay here. We enjoy the resort, it’s like our home away from home. Friendly staff, resort is very clean & charming. Beautiful, well maintained pool & beach areas. We rent a kitchen unit & buy groceries at shops nearby. Especially love the convenience of a market on resort property. We ate the sports bar three times!

"Home away from home"

Great place to vacation, as a couple or as a family. Super safe, and if you only speak English you'll be fine. All of the Villa del Palmar resorts are nice, this one is very user-friendly and would be a good place to start if you haven't travelled much outside of the US. It's close to a lot of the stuff you'll want to do and see. They've really updated the resort, very impressed with all of the work they've done. Very nice, very safe beach, kids can go into the ocean without having to worry about riptides, rocks, etc. Very friendly, helpful staff--be sure to say hi to Irma at the Concierge's desk!

"Great stay!"

We were offered this trip in a vacation package and our expectations weren't that high but to my amazement our stay was absolutely fabulous!!! Our room was perfect for two middle aged folks, king bed with a kitchenette, and the best part was, our room looked out onto the bay. The food was great and the drinks were pretty awesome too. Our cups didn't remain empty for long thanks to the wonderful staff. I would definitely go to the resort again and not think twice about it. Thank you Villa del Mar for a wonderful stay.

"Awesome, awesome, awesome stay"

I came here with my daughter. We wanted to stay at an adults only all inclusive for her spring break. The crowd here is all couples so keep that in mind when choosing to stay here. Despite that our stay was beyond enjoyable. Everyone was having a great time getting to know us and vice versa. We spent five glorious nights at Hotel Mousai in the North tower ultra room. Our views were breathtaking and the room was huge and technologically advanced. Loved the bidet. We didnt do any activities because our goal was to relax at the pool everyday working on a tan, hit the gym, and eat good food and we did just that. Facilities were clean everywhere. Food was excellent at every restaurant. We didnt try the steakhouse so cant speak to that. The staff here really elevated our experience. Omar at the pool was awesome. Everyday we looked forward to seeing him and Guillermo for a great pool day. Always smiling and working very hard to make sure we were happy and everyone else around us. Our butler Diego was very kind and helpful with anything we needed. He would reach out to us throughout the day. I am really bad at remembering names so I wish I could say who else really made our stay amazing but honestly everyone was great. Our room was always cleaned perfectly and loved turn down service and those chocolates at night. There were so many unexpected small gestures towards us that made our trip special. I highly recommend staying here. Puerto Vallarta is a really great destination for those seeking perfect weather during late March and early April.

"Beautiful Resort/ A few things could improve"

We had a wonderful four day/four night stay at Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta. We have traveled to Mexico many times and this was our first time to Garza Blanca. We chose GB based on the reviews and ratings when we booked our vacation. We found it to be a gorgous resort with high end amenities. We had a two bedroom/ 3 bath, ocean front room with a HUGE veranda overlooking the ocean with a beautiful hammock. Sonia was an impeccable housekeeper and took such gracious care of our condo. Meticulously clean condo, comfy beds, nice bedding, full kitchen, TV's and wifi in every room (don't pay for premium WiFi - it makes zero difference in speed or quality). The grounds were stunning and well maintained. We loved the trolley services that ran very frequently to get you to the different parts of the resort. The gym was high-end with everything you need for your fitness routine. Weights, cardio, separate studio - all overlooking the ocean with panoramic rooftop views. * If you aren't staying at that hotel it was a bit time consuming just to get a workout in. The few drawbacks we didn't enjoy were the salespeople (aka "Concierge") hounding us from the minute we arrived to the hotel. We got there at 1 PM and couldn't check in to our room until 4 pm. We waited the entire afternoon to change our clothes and relax and put our feet up. During that time, we had a hotel salesperson showing us the map of the resort grounds and the different amenities and activities. Next thing we knew we were being given a sales pitch to sign up for a free breakfast and learn about buying into their resort properties "Club" membership. We felt like we were being pushed into doing something we had no intention of doing on our short vacation. We should have said no from the beginning, as they kept tracking us down on the beach, in the elevators, everywhere we went, trying to get us to sign up for the "free breakfast" and "sales pitch". We just wanted to relax and enjoy ourselves for a few days and felt we had to dodge the concierge sales people.We did not do the all -inclusive, as we knew we wanted to venture out and try other places. It was hard to find other food and access to other areas of PV as it was farther away from everything. The gift shop was tiny and offered very little, and the deli up in the TierraLuna plaza was cute and offers Starbucks drinks and small sandwiches and smoothies. That was a lifesaver for us and our teenagers. The saved lounges for "members" by the main infinity pool felt very excluding. It created a barricaded feeling around the perimeter of the entire pool, so we opted for the beach every day instead. There is a second, quieter pool up the hill at the other building, but it was shadier and we didn't go up to that one. Very pretty views and sunset at the beach, nice lounges and umbrellas and very friendly wait staff with full menu and drinks. Smaller beach and a bit rocky. If you're looking for a long walk on a beach, you won't find that here. The entire staff was very friendly, attentive, professional and polite. But there are a lot of things lacking that a resort of this caliber at this price should offer its guests, and not push real estate sales on vacationers unless they inquire. All in all it was a wonderful time and gorgeous resort, but a few things we wish we would have known prior to our vacation.

Rosie and Emily at concierge were amazing in giving us recommendations as well as make our reservations. Do not miss the spa, as it was the highlight of our trip! Esther was truly the best!

"Clas Azul Tasting with Daniel"

Hotel Musai is beyond beautiful. We arrived two days ago and have enjoyed everything we have had to eat and drink. Today we did a tequila tasting experience poolside with Daniel and it was beyond my expectations. We have done these type of activities before but Daniel shared our love of fine tequila and shared with us his knowledge and passion for good tequila. We had three types of Clas Azul, a tequila cocktail and accompanying appetizers. Daniel was very engaging and made the experience fun for the five of us!

"Another Excellent Experience !!!!"

We've been members here at Mousai for a number of years and enjoy our trips every time we come. Ernesto and Lilith our butlers are super helpful and attentive of to any of our needs. At the pool side Omar Salvador, who is fairly new at the hotel, went out of his way to make us comfortable and provided excellent service. I look forward to seeing him on our next visit. Very nice young man. The pool staff in general at the south tower are stellar. Guillermo, Ramon, Diana all great. It's a pleasure interacting with them. The food experiences are never disappointing. I love having breakfast in the room on the deck overlooking the ocean. My only regret is that I can't eat more. If you're looking to have a very relaxing experience with service that is exceptional this is the place to go. The facilities are excellent, the rooms perfect, love the dip pool on our deck and the staffs attentiveness and wanting to serve any and all of your needs is refreshing. Can't wait till our next trip.

Another great stay at Garza Blanca. This time in the Honeymoon Suite which was very lovely, ocean front on the 6th floor. Besides the amazing views, the best thing about this place is the service. Special thanks to Christian for helping with chairs at the pool and being a great guy to talk to along with great service from Oscar and Juan Suarez poolside. Angel at Bocados took great care of us. The groundskeepers and cleaning staff also do an amazing job to keep the resort beautiful. Always hard to leave such an amazing place, but we will be back...

Thank you for the wonderful experience!! From the time we checked in we were welcomed with a smile and people that are truly happy. We spent a lot of time on the beach enjoying wonderful service and smiles with Roberto Gallardo!! He was always there at the right time with a smile to help. I also want to thank Javier (with the safari hat) for always being on the beach keeping things in order!! Javier would just show up out of nowhere, handle the issue, asked everyone if they are having a good time, and he was gone again. We cant wait to come back in August!!

Wow!! What an incredible place!! We have a 4 year old and a 6 years old and we had the best time. The kids club is amazing, it gave my husband and I the opportunity to have dinners in private while the kids went to their private dinner with other children. These people go above and beyond to make you comfortable. The food is always fresh and the presentation is immaculate, especially at the adults only restaurants.Very clean and they provide all necessities such as, toiletries, robe, slippers, etc.Last but not least I would like to mention the manager Elaine, the waiters Mario, Humberto, Alexis, Javier, Andres and Omar at Blanca Blue for taking care of all our needs.

"Great stay for Spring Break."

Would really rate as 4.5 if I could. pleasant stay for four nights over spring break at the all inclusive rate. Never stayed in PV, have been to Mexico Yucatán Peninsula many times. The hotel is beautiful and new. The decor may throw some off but I thought it was well done -- think 80s chrome and mirrors vibe with flavors of art deco and Hard Rock hotel. Large Black and white shiny ceramic tiles in lobby with large plastic chess piece decorations. Multimedia paintings on walls, large an abstract print wall coverings. It all seems to work. The hotel is a two tower type affair. Lobbies spacious and inviting. Property on the hill across road from beach so very steep drive. There are plenty of provided shuttles and no body walks so that isn't an issue. Rooms very spacious and well appointed. Hot tub and hammock on very large balcony. Very spacious bathrooms. Stayed at Hotel Xcaret which is a very high end property and the rooms here are better. Service very attentive. Food good -- several on site restaurants -- Hiroshi (Japanese) , Dao (Chinese), Bocados (steak). Hiroshi best overall for us in terms of food quality and service. Best part was getting AYCE of fresh thick fish slices. Rest are decent. Deserts across the board quite good. Bocados had a few misses in terms of steak appearance and serving what seemed to be canned corn but taste was good. However the view from Bocados was the best in terms of balcony over looking the bay. Staying at Mousai also includes access to Garza Blanca hotel down the hill which has a beach and if you are all inclusive includes all the food and beverage there too. Trolley runs from very early to very late every 10 min. You could walk -- the down would be fine-- but very steep uphill coming back. We very much enjoy all inclusives but this works a little different. Because this is an all inclusive option at a regular hotel you still have to sign for everything. And even though tipping is supposed to be included there is a line for "extra gratuity for exceptional service " which one waiter tracked me down for when I didn't include it. I find that very annoying as it is clearly stated that tax and gratuities are included. Seemed expected to me.

"March spring couples trip"

What a wonderful kick off to an early spring. A long weekend stay at none other, Hotel Mousai with some of our best friends. It was their first visit and they were SO impressed. To say its our favorite resort is an understatement! We continue to come back time and time again and write a review for many reasons. First off, the resort itself is perfect! It is set in the most beautiful surrounding, it is pristine, clean, the decor is amazing and modern and the service is over the top. Did I mention how fantastic the food is? Weve come to Hotel Mousai and stayed several times at both the North and South Towers. You cant go wrong when you book the ultra room as having a personal butler is wonderful. We have been lucky to request Carlos Ramos as our butler the past 5 visits. He is an amazing human being and we love love love him! He is incredibly professional, friendly, his attention to detail is insane and he continues to surprise us. From the daily almond milk lattes at 7:30 am, turn down every night and making sure our room was clean everyday at the same time with extra towels was so nice. Fresh fruit and bubbly was a very nice touch- Carlos youre the best!!! This trip, we decided to book the Master Suite. Im not sure how I can travel to another hotel room after this stay-its an incredible suite. A must have for a special occasion. As always, some of our favorite people are still @ Hotel Mousai. Gustavo, manager at the Italian restaurant, Noi always goes out of his way to give us a hug and say hello. The new chef is fabulous. The pizzas, pear salad, fish of the day and pasta were perfect especially after flying. Dont forget to get an Aperol spritz at the bar in the lobby. Ask for the rooftop chef, Marco to make a special Mexican BBQ now on the rooftop menu- its veggies, chicken, streak, shrimp, octopus and risotto- perfecto. The best nighttime crew on the rooftop is for sure Ricardo. Hes been there a few years and he remembers your drink, hes funny and SO fun to hype up the night. Marco is amazing as well with great service and all the bartenders. Allan helped us with our seats everyday and Matteo is our favorite during the day. The daytime menu is so yummy and you can never have enough watermelon fresh cocktails. Lastly, dont forget Hiroshi. Ask for the crispy tuna and for a great experience, request Alejandro and Reuben. Please check out Hotel Mousai. Youll never stay elsewhere in Mexico. Its only going to get better as they expand and of course, more popular and busier. Its our happy place and we will be back this summer. We dont have a timeshare with Taffer but we have been to Hotel Mousai and the Garza Blanca properties with family & friends a total of 18 times. This shows how wonderful the resorts are.

"The best of the best"

Would highly recommend Hotel Mousai, very clean, classy, most professional staff! We had the honour of having Carlos Ramoj he went above and beyond for us. He had planned the most romantic rooftop dinner, rose petals, candles, lovey music. Will always be in our memories. From start to finish, he was amazing! I highly recommend this chain of hotels they have thought of everything. Very delicious food, so much variety. Refreshing drinks and top notch rooftop pool, came home with a beautiful tan Thank you Mousai team, we look forward to coming back soon.

"Fabulous Vacation for Memories to be Made!"

My husband and I love The Hotel Mouse Puerto Vallarta! This was our second year to visit. The amenities are first class. The views are spectacular. The restaurants are all five -star, delicious. The best part of the hotel are the wonderful people who truly make the vacation memorable--Lillith, Cesar Flores, Claudia Molina, Luis, Angel and Romeo--our favorite pool servers.

"Best sushi/service of my life"

How often do you get 3 servers instead of 1? Diego Silva made the best experience for me and my hubby. Delicious food and good recommendations. If you like more simple sushi, ask. We got everything he recommended. The flavor of the fish was 100% delicious with ponzu and green onion. The rest of his team was called the Hiroshi Team (Miguel and Alex) if you are curious.

"Too petty to be first class."

Our room was wonderful. Rosa, our housekeeper was amazing. Adding an involuntary EXTRA gratuity to our bill for the guy who checks the minie bar is petty beyond comprehension. A resort that bills itself as 5Stars shouldn't have to stoop so low.

"We love this place!"

We have been coming here since 2015. The service and amenities are outstanding. Its off the beaten path, which we like. The only downside is that the staff want to sign you up for a presentation the moment you arrive. We were asked on 3 separate occasions and had to resort to becoming downright rude. Otherwise, this resort checks all the boxes.

"The best of the best"

The Mousai is the ultimate adults only all inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta. Everything about our visit was perfect. Literally, the best food we have ever had at any all inclusive resort ever! From the rooftop pool, and the spectacular service, they provide to every employee we encountered while we were there, absolutely amazing.

Everything is always wonderful here at Hotel Mousai. We have been members since 2014 and have been here 35 times. Its true paradise and we have the best Butler named Carlos Ramos who always takes such great care of us. He schedules all of our dinners, massages and anything we need he is there to help.

"Magic at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta"

This is our third time staying at a Garza Blanca resort (first in Cabo, second in Cancun), and this was our favorite location. The hotel designers did an incredible job building it into the beautiful Puerta Vallarta landscape, and the amenities are at the high level weve come to expect at a Garza Blanca resort. The beach is wonderful with areas to bathe. You can also participate in the morning kayak excursion to Los Arcos, which we enjoyed. Dont miss the sunsets which are truly astonishing. The staff are kind and caring, always making you feel welcome and ensuring you have what you need.The workout facility is great for those wanting to exercise. We were told that the hotel was at 97% capacity including a wedding. The best complement I can give about the layout of the hotel is that we never felt like we were in a crowded area (beach, pool, restaurants, etc). Enjoy your trip!

"Mousai South Tower Rooftop bar staff"

My fiancé and I went here for the first time last year and absolutely loved it. This was our second time staying at Mousai. The destination itself is amazing but the amazing service this hotel provides is truly incredible. The wait staff on the Rooftop bar are exceptional. Marcelino and Eduardo took care of us every day during our stay and they were so fun and kind and delivered great service. Every night we would head to the Rooftop bar for after dinner drinks and Ricardo would be there greeting us with such enthusiasm and really made my fiancé and I feel special. They made us feel like family. I highly recommend staying at Mousai. We cannot wait to go back!

Amazing views and an incredible room. We loved that we could always find a chair at the pools, and always with great poolside service. The bed was amazing, and the property large and gorgeous. We were well taken care of by Araceli in housekeeping, she made sure our room was perfect and any extra requests for things was met. My only negative was the desk clerks at the resort entrance. My few interactions there were mixed. Some were very friendly, one or two were just rude and seemed very unhappy (exchanging money, helping with a key card issue, etc). Other than that, an incredible stay!

"Birthday Vacay at Hotel Mousai"

We were in Puerto Vallarta from 2/23 to 2/28 to celebrate my 36th birthday. We had to postpone the trip by a year (I was supposed to be there for my 35th) due to health issues, so we were VERY excited to finally get to Hotel Mousai.I wish I could give this place 4.5 stars because I think they deserve more than four stars, but not five. We arrived on the 23rd around 6:00 p.m. and we started the check in process. I cannot remember the name of the person that checked us in, but although he had proof of our down payment from 2022, he said the hotel had not received the payment and he could not give us the room until we paid for the $700+ (that I had already paid two years prior). I showed the gentleman proof of our payment, which was a receipt from Hotel Mousai itself (we did not use a third party company to book our trip), and he said he also had that confirmation, but that they had not yet received the actual money....? And I'm like, okay the money left my bank account so you guys have to figure this out. It was the most bizarre experience. He finally called a supervisor who confirmed the money had been received in 2022, and that the notes in the system were old. We were given our keys and wristbands and we headed to room #6006 in the north tower.So this room was the room from hell. First of all, we wanted a King size bed for my husband and I and we got two Queens. I went back to the front desk and the same man was like SORRY have nothing for you we are completely booked (more on this later). I went back and just thought.. let's make the best of it. I opened up the shower mat/towel to take a shower and a clump of someone's hair rolled out. I almost puked. We laid on one of the beds and found someone's barbell top (a.k.a the top of a bellybutton ring or other body rings) on it.. super gross. And finally, to top it all off.... the room is across the way from a party hall, which apparently Hotel Mousai staff thought was a good idea to clean and vacuum from 12:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Not kidding.The next morning I was MAD. Kept my cool and went down and talked to a lovely young man (not the same one as the day before) and calmly told him about our horrible experience thus far. He was so embarrassed and immediately advised he was going to talk to the Manager. I told him I appreciated his efforts and that we would be up at Blanca Blue having breakfast and would check back in later.We got back to the front desk and were offered another room in either the south or north tower. We decided to stay in the north tower because that has full ocean views with no obstructions and got room 6016. Room 6016 was an upgrade as it had a wrap around balcony and it was a corner suite. It was one floor above our last which was great.. and we had a King bed! We were very grateful to the Manager and front desk associate for their efforts to remedy the situation. The rest of our stay was amazing..- Huge shout out to Alan and Arturo, who took care of us like we were royalty while we used the pool. Our drinks were phenomenal, were brought promptly, and the food was delicious. At one point, Alan saw that I came out of the pool to hang in our cabana and that I was going to use the towel I had previously used (which I was totally okay with) to dry. Instead he rushed over to give me a fresh one. Seriously.. they really made our pool experience one that will be hard to EVER beat. The last two days of our stay we were taken care of by Gerardo who was kind, attentive, and also amazing! THANK YOU GUYS!- Don't sleep on NOI which is the Italian restaurant in the south tower. SUCH GREAT FOOD!! The pizza was O.M.G. Enrique was our waiter and was so great. He was lovely and ensured our experience was top notch. The Terrace avocado toast with the salmon and egg for breakfast... to. die. for!- Try to get a room above the lobby, not below. The two rooms we were assigned during our stay were below the lobby and although the view was great, there are palms and other trees in the way of your ocean view. The higher you can go, the better. - The room itself was a dream. The surround sound, the robe, the toto toilet, the giant shower, and our giant deck with the cuzzi was so great! We definitely enjoyed every inch of the space.Overall, we would absolutely return to Hotel Mousai. It was an unforgettable getaway with my husband that I will cherish forever! First night removed, I would have no complaints and would have rated the resort five stars.

"Perfect time of year to visit paradise"

We have stayed here many times (15+) and it never disappoints. The end of Feb is a perfect time to visit from a weather perspective and as a couple. There were not many children because of the time of year and so the whole resort felt very quiet and relaxed.The restaurants were great with new menu items added since we were here 4 months ago and as always the staff were the highlight. A big shout out to Alejandro in Hiroshis who is always so happy and welcoming. Also I want to recognize the behind the scenes staff, Virginia who made sure our room was always immaculate and crafted creations from towels to make our room special when we came back from another beautiful dinner. Finally the ever helpful butler staff of Jose, Alejandro, Filipe, Zuno (sorry if I missed someone) make this feel like a very special place.Thanks to everyone.

"Great, But"

First impressions are everything. This is a 5 Star/Diamond hotel, this comes with some high expectations. We checked in and were greeted with a cold towel and a glass of champagne, then the bad news started. We were told our reserved South Tower Corner Suite was not available. We were offered a standard suite in the north tower and a $250 hotel credit, or we could change rooms part way thru our stay. In addition, we had made previous dinner reservations for every night of our stay but they could not confirm or find our reservation for Bocados. This is not how 5 Star Hotels operate and was not the way you want to start an expensive vacation. The views from the North Tower are fantastic but the Main Pool (not adults only) is directly below the tower. Very loud on the patio from kids and even street noise makes its way up to the patio. The South Tower is much quieter.The Garza Blanca resort grounds are absolutely beautiful and the service once checked in was outstanding. All the food was very good although Blanca Blue was just average and not worth the long walk down to the beach.Would love to say that we would go back, but what happened to us at check in is apparently not uncommon. We had friends go earlier in the year and their reserved suite was not available either. They were upgraded to an Ultra Suite but had to pay the difference in price. Hotel Mousai does not understand the definition of the word reserved.

"Felt like royalty"

Our stay at Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta has been fantastic. It's our first time at Hotel Mousai, second time in PV, although we are very familiar with the Tafer properties. This morning's hike with Ronaldo and Eduardo was so much fun. It's the first time ever at a resort where the activity was described as advanced, and it actually delivered. 2 1/2 hours later, we were tired, sweaty, and had seen some fantastic views and beautiful sites. Can't wait to go on another hike and the kayak tour because we had such a good experience with the activities team. Love our Butler Diego, who is the perfect balance of available & always with answers, yet not obtrusive. Miguel at Noi was an excellent & attentive server with on point suggestions and superb knowledge of the menu! Our housekeeping friend, Angelica did such a great job, she was stealth, efficient, and our room was absolutely perfect every day. What a beautiful day, thank you for such a superb staff, who made us feel very, very special!

"Great unless age 13-15"

The views are amazing and the 2 bedroom panoramic is huge and great for families. The only downside is that 13 and up are charged as adults, but they cannot go to the 3 adult only restaurants until they are 16. We have been going to Garza Vallarta every year. However, now that our son is 14, we will not be back until he is 16. The restaurants are strict about the adults (16 and up) only rule. If your child is 13-15, go to Cancun instead. Garza Cancun lets them in all of the restaurants. Garza Vallartas Bocados restraurant is beautiful and the staff at Dao is fantastic. Garza Vallarta could use some outdoor ping pong tables and stuff for teenagers to do. The kids club is geared toward 8 and under.

"We Cant Wait to Return!"

The Hotel Mousai exceeded our expectations. From the beautifully appointed room with a terrace (complete with water views and hot tub) to the above-and-beyond dining options to the surprisingly challenging hike and fantastic nature walk, the stay was everything we wanted. So many individuals to thank, but we loved our time at the rooftop pool with concierges Vainey and Alan, breakfast at BocaDos with Gio and Arturo, helpful check-in assistance with Miguel, hiking with Mike (king of Dad jokes) and nature walk with Tito (enthusiasm personified), and knowledgeable concierges Jovana and Atenas.

"An AMAZING vacation"

Our stay was overall phenomenal. We went on a fun girls trip. The views, the rooms and the food are nothing short of amazing.Ricardo the Bell Boy at the North Tower was one of the first people we met. He was so great showing us our room and how to work everything in the room. Our room was on the 2nd floor of the North Tower and the view of the ocean was amazing. Cecilia the hotel General Manager was the absolute sweetest. She offered us an amazing upgrade. She runs an amazing hotel and has incredible staff.Bianca at the North Tower concierge was so sweet as well as many other staff such as the front desk supervisor Aaron. They really helped us out and were very professional.Roger who is head of concierge at Garza Blanca was phenomenal to us. We stopped by to see the beach and we ended up having an amazing conversation with him. We think Roger is amazing at what he does.Also, many of the waiters were so great. At the North Tower we had Edgar, and Alex for breakfast. They were so sweet and gave wonderful service. We had Angel at the steak house, Bocados. He was so sweet and professional. At the Chinese restaurant we had David twicehe was also incredible.The North Tower pool staff was incredible. Especially Marcelino, Alan, Eduardo, Mateo, and Jorge. Everyone gave amazing service and were so sweet to us. Lastly, the butler Lilith was also so sweet and helped us out when we saw her at the North Tower pool.Lastly, the spa is amazing. We had incredible massages from Luis and Julio as well as an incredible facial from Naomi. Even the spa supervisor Hayde was so sweet and professional.We cant wait to come back to visit again and recommend it to everyone we know.

The service was perfection in every sense. It felt like they were reading my mind it was so smooth and seamless. They were so enjoyable and were making us laugh and we felt so comfortable! It was the highlight of our trip! Also a shout out to Marco who was at the bar as well.

"The best AI food I have ever had!!!"

We have never been to an all-inclusive resort that served dishes at every meal that didn't leave us wanting more...and we did eat more, every chance we got. Ha! Karuma is in the shopping village and is not included in the AI program but definitely worth spending extra to eat there...This Argentine steak house is superb. A shout out to Miguel and Joel at NOI, the Italian restaurant, they treated us like Royalty unlike the hostesses at many of the restaurants that asked my husband to remove his hat upon entering. The dress code for the resort's restaurants says nothing about hats, so that was annoying every time we wanted to go do dinner and then get pressed on something as little as that.Also, the resort credit is a little shady. It does not cover Karuma even though it doesn't specify that at check-in (read your fine print email and then you will find it.)It doesn't cover any spa treatments that are less than 50 minutes either. So, we decided to buy the extra cost tomahawk steak at the resort's steak house and that made us feel a lot better. LOLOverall, a good resort. Loved the rooftop pool, no kids, great service. Will I return? Probably not, unless to eat at Karuma!

"They dont make their own guac!"

This is my third time staying at Garza Blanca. Normally its been fantastic which is why I come back but this time, I was disappointed in two things. 1.) They were not making their own guacamole. It was a paste substitute. It had avocado in it but filled with really bad tasting preservatives. The staff said it was because avocados are out of season but come on you shouldnt be allowed to serve food in Mexico if youre not making fresh guacamole. It just really cheapens the food experience when they do that with yours tacos. 2.) The wines by the glass selections were super limited for all inclusive. The tequila selection is awesome but when it comes to wine, you had two options and both were not good. Other than that the rest of the food, staff and facilities were awesome.

"The Best of everything..."

My wife and I have been vacationing at GB / Mousai in PVR for the last 7 years. For the accommodations, food, service, convenience, and price (typically) it cannot be beat! We have been fortunate enough to meet many of the wonderful individuals on staff, including our all around favorite, Javier - Jefe de la playa! One of the other unsung heroes, is within the call center of Tafer Resorts. That is Supervisor, Antonio Franco Jimenez. As is the case with any destination, you want to feel you've found the best pricing available on the planet. Many 3rd party travel sites will offer different incentives, but I have been very fortunate to work directly with Antonio within Tafer Resorts over the last few years to essentially have him quote and take into consideration our loyalty / customer appreciation / repetitive guest "status", even though we are not actual members of the resort. He is amazing to work with throughout the years and continues to surprise us each time! Thank you for your professionalism and patience Antonio for all of the requests throughout the years.Best,++ lance

"10 out of 10- the BEST vacation experience weve had to date! Cant wait to go back!"

Our trip to Garza Blanca was absolutely fantastic-our best vacation so far! The entire resort is so beautiful. Its clear that so much thought and design went into every aspect of the resort with the aim of making it a 10 out of 10 experience. I cant say enough great things about the staff-they kicked the experience up to the next level. Every person was so thoughtful, kind, and friendly. Special shout out to our delightful concierge Tonia who helped us plan some wonderful experiences, our amazing housekeeper Mariana Lima who was an absolute rockstar-so professional while also being so friendly and helpful. Also to Junior, Mario, and Alex at Blanca Blue and Javier down at the beachside area. Each member of staff were so professional, attentive, and friendly-just the best service weve had.The restaurants were fantastic! So much amazing food. We cant say enough good things about them all! We loved relaxing on the lounge chairs poolside, but especially the ones on the gorgeous beach. We brought books and loved that the food and drink service extended to the beach! Amazing to enjoy your beach read and have a kind server bring you food and margaritas! We also took advantage of the free kayak and snorkeling tour out to Los Arcos. It was fantastic!! I dont remember our guides name, but he was the perfect tour guide. We had so much fun! I couldnt believe how many tropical fish we saw while snorkeling! They also gave us a free room upgrade because the room we initially booked wasnt available when we arrived. The upgrade was absolutely incredible! Gorgeous! Everything was a 10 out of 10 for beauty, cleanliness, service. We will absolutely be back!

Family of four (4.5 year old and 1 year old) stayed here for a week and had a wonderful stay. The property was beautiful and we opted for the all inclusive package and was impressed by the quality and option of food and drinks. Spa was fabulous and had an amazing massage from Alba. Our 4.5 year old LOVED the kids club - the gals that run this club were FABULOUS - Nancy, Emma, Nicole, Heizel. They went above and beyond making our daughter have the best time. They made her extra crafts like bracelets and necklaces and even organized balloons and made special birthday hats for our 1 year old. I can't thank them enough they were truly wonderful!!!!

"Luxury every step of the way"

Came with a 3 and 5 year old for a family getaway. Food at all the restaurants was incredible. Room (double queen) was spacious and had lovely details. The all inclusive plan meant that we always had snacks and drinks in the room as well as poolside. This resort is definitely more for adults than kids/families, but we enjoyed having a more calm environment at the pool (and not having the crazy of a water park trying to watch kids). Bring your own pool toys/supplies. That was the one thing we forgot and had to purchase.

"Garza Blanca P.V. All inclusive is the way to experience your dream in Paradise."

Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta was beyond any expectations. The rooms, amenities, location, Service. And Food!! Stayed for 5 nights and was able to experience the All Invlusive Food Journey. All of their Restaurants included are fresh, skilled and tasty. Enjoyed all the poolside service employees. GREAT drinks. Big shout out to Roberto Pool Service at Mountain 4/5 pool. Shout out to Hiroshi team dinner service Diego Silva, Alex and Janette. Also to the Borados Breakfast service team Gio, Alan, and Julian!! Hands up to all! They went above and beyond. Thank you Garza Blanca for a memory of a lifetime we got to spend together for a lifetime! P.S. LOVED the Carousel ride @ TerraLuna. * approx $4-5 USD per adult, but it was so special. -Candice, Kevin, Genevieve, and Yesenia

"Hiroshi Team 11/10"

Diego Silva and Vicente Joya apart of the Hiroshi Team are the best waiters weve had. We came from Seattle, and they made us feel so welcomed. Some of the best food weve also had. Would recommend the food to anybody, and hope that new people visiting get Diego and Vicente.

"Entirely Phenomenal Experience"

This is my first stay at Garza Blanca but definitely not my last. Already planning a trip to come back in a couple of months and bringing a group of people with me. Ronaldo, Mike, Eduardo, & Christian made this trip even better than I imagined. I came alone but these people specifically stood out at making me feel included, continuously happy, comfortable and as if my presence was genuinely valued. I thoroughly enjoyed the stretching class, Tai Chi, yoga, salsa dancing lessons, multiple hikes & swims to a gorgeous waterfall, and games on the beach. Was here for 6 days and still feel there was more for me to try and experience as there is no shortage on activities and restaurants. Part of my profession is being a Private Chef for high profile families and I can guarantee there is absolutely incredible food and service. I posted many photos and videos on my social media and have had 47 people *and counting* reach out to know where this incredible place is. Will continue to share with anyone and everyone looking to be completely and utterly happy. Thank you for such a beyond pleasant experience and looking forward to being back soon. Xoxo Betty Boop

"Excellent Customer Service"

We have been to the Hotel Mousai four times now and have spent a handful of birthdays along with our engagement moon. Each time we come back, we are reminded why we continue to do so. Of course, the property itself is GORGEOUS and breathtaking, the all inclusive is top notch & the activities offered are great. But, the real reason we come back is because of the SERVICE. The staff is the best weve ever had even after traveling all over the world. This past trip, we really want to highlight our bartenders (Oscar & Alonso) at the Bar Lobby in the Mousai South Tower. They truly made us feel at home by greeting us with cocktail hour and nightcaps. We literally always started and ended our night with them. Not only were they inviting and thoughtful, they were AMAZING mixologists. They made the most creative and delicious cocktails on the property, let alone in Puerto Vallarta. They definitely were a top highlight of our stay. Highly recommend the Hotel Mousai and also visiting both Oscar & Alonso at the Bar Lobby in the South Tower.

"Beautiful Views of the Bandera Bay!"

Garza Blanca Puerto VallartaThis is our second trip here. My husband and I came in May 2023. This January 2024 trip was with two other couples. This is a beautiful resort and the views are fabulous. The first trip we were in the high-rise; this trip we were in building 3, right on the beach. We left the screen open to catch the wonderful breeze and to listen to the waves crashing on the beach. We had a walk-in closet, another closet and a large dresser way more storage than we could ever use.Please remember to make your dinner reservations prior to arriving, as you may not got the restaurant and/or time you prefer if you wait. I made our reservations, for 6, mid-November for our January trip.Our check-in on this trip was frustrating. The person who was suppose to check us in told us Your room isnt ready yet, Im leaving in 5 minutes, my co-workers will assist you later. He then handed me a piece of paper with a code he wrote on it. He told me that by presenting this piece of paper to the server, we could get something to eat or drink. I showed it at the lobby bar, and they had no idea what it was. When I returned to the lobby to see if our room was ready, they had no idea what the numbers were suppose to represent. Of the three couples, we were the first to attempt to check in. In the end, we were the last to receive our room assignment. Thank you, Diego for fixing the mess the previous employee left you. Your assistance was much appreciated.There is a concierge here, but honestly, Im not sure that there was a lot of value for the service. I received a phone call on our last evening there from our concierge. She said she called to remind me of our dinner reservation for 6 at Hiroshi. She then told me to remember that theres a dress code, and not to wear our bathing suits. Say what?? Thank you to Noe, our waiter at NOI; you were fabulous. There is a nice bar outside of this Italian restaurant. Thank you, Alonso, for my delicious Guizeppe!Hiroshi, the Japanese restaurant is one of our favorites. Thank you, Alexander, for the excellent service (and for talking me into trying the cheesecake!). Miguel, you were fantastic as well and kept us laughing.Blanca Blue (Mexican) has a buffet available for breakfast. They are also open for lunch and dinner. We found the food to be very good.DAO, contemporary Chinese, was a good meal.Bacados, the steak house, has very good food. They serve breakfast and dinner. One morning during breakfast we were blessed to watch a young whale, splashing his tale again and again reminded me of a toddler playing in the bath tub. In the evening, we loved sitting outside, watching the sunset. Be forewarned - the dinner portions are very big. You can ask for a smaller portion.At Tamarindo, the Mexican restaurant, we want to thank Nacho. You took great care of all six of us and you made us laugh so!The lobby bar is small, though there are some chairs and tables. A big thank you to Batola!We did take advantage of the Spa and got a couples massage. The Spa is very high up in one of the Mousai buildings. The view is absolutely incredible. Cons My only complaint would be having to sign for everything if youre all inclusive. We kept forgetting that we had to sign. Wed get up to leave and the poor waiter would have to come running after us telling us we need to sign. Weve never had to do this at any other all-inclusive resort weve been to. Bit of a pain, but not bad.There isnt a sports bar anywhere, so the guys had to watch football in the room. Go Ravens!You will find live music by individual musicians throughout at different places and times. Its wonderful sitting in the lobby listening to the piano being played. However, one night we were in the middle of our meal and the sax started. They had the volume up so loud; we couldnt hear each other talking. Music during dinner should be background music.Extra Activities to do - This is a must! We took a cab to Jardin Bontanico, a beautiful botanical garden. It was lovely to walk through and look at all the plants. Theres paths and buildings throughout the gardens, with peacocks, chickens, and lots of other birds to see. You can also support their efforts by going to their restaurant. We had lunch there; the food was really good and very reasonably priced. Our waiter, Armando, was fabulous.You cant go to Puerto Vallarta without taking a cab to the Malecon and exploring the romantic zone. There is usually various entertainment as you walk along the boardwalk. People playing instruments, the Mayans on the very tall pole, spinning. There are lots of beautiful statues as well. Theres also a pier that looks like a sailboat in the distance.

"To visit Paradise is to visit Garza Blanca!"

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about this lovely, welcoming vacation spot! From the first impression with the beautiful views of the Los Archos in the Bay of Banderas to the mountains and waterfalls behind the resort . . . all reflects the beauty of this magical place. The service on all levels cannot be beat. From the friendly "butlers" to the wait staff, like Martin in Bocados, to the maid service personnel, all greet you by name, want to help to make your vacation very special, and treat you as a member of their extended family. There are so many fun activities to enjoy at your leisure. It's easy to make reservations through wonderful Paulina at the Tour desk. Special dietary needs are met without question, and we truly appreciate that as I must be gluten free. The food is excellent at all the restaurants at the resort and they have many specialty dining venues to enjoy every night, if you choose. It's also easy to head to the town of Puerto Vallarta for fine restaurants and shopping. This wonderful resort makes your vacation and time away from home enjoyable and memorable for all the right reasons! Thank you to all the people of Tafer for a wonderful trip!

He came to us in the pool to make sure we had everything we needed and alway checked in. We specifically came back to the same spot for his service! Find Rogelio at the main pool when youre here and you wont be disappointed. Thank you, Rogelio :)

"Great All-Inclusive Experience"

We spent 5 nights at Hotel Mousai in an Ultra Corner Suite in the North Tower. Our room was on the 6th floor and the views were fantastic!! We could see up and down the coast, and also the lush hills out the back. We had a hottub on the patio, which we enjoyed. It quit working one day and we reported it. A crew came by later in the day and fixed it. The curtains and lights are controlled by an IPad, which was easy to use. The heated toilet seat was a pleasant surprise. Overall, it is one of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in.We had the All-Inclusive package and were glad we did. Most items on the restaurant menus are included. It was very clear what was and want not included, so there was good transparency. The included wines were drinkable, but not outstanding. We did enjoy the sparkling wine from Spain and drank that more than other wines. The few cocktails we had were good. We thought the food in most of the restaurants was very good. The only one we didn't like was Bocados. We had the aged steaks on the all-inclusive package. Both were quite tough and mine was overcooked for medium-rare. We ate twice at NOI and enjoyed the fresh artichoke with cheese in the middle, the saltimbocca, the duck ragu pasta, and my husband really liked the Tirtico del Mar (a tiradito-type raw fish dish). Hiroshi was very good. We splurged on the Toro sashimi (not on all-inclusive list), and it was delicious. The salmon in the sashimi and sushi dishes was very fresh and good. DOA had an extensive menu. The dishes that we sampled were very good. I would like to go back and try more. We enjoyed breakfast at La Terrace, and really liked the smoothies. Overall, we were quite happy with the dining experience and the all-inclusive plan.The rooftop is an exceptional experience with incredible views. The pool was just the right temperature for us and we spent quite a bit of time in it. The pool concierge, Greta, was wonderful at finding us the best seats and setting them up for us. We ordered lunch there several times and found the food and service to be very good. Jorge and Armando were great waiters, as were the others who helped us. In the Spa, we did the hydrotherapy circuit twice and also had a wonderful hot stone massage. We had purchased a discounted spa certificate from the pre-arrival concierge and found it to be a good deal.This was an expensive trip, but we think it was worth it. We intend to return again and would recommend it to anyone who wants an exceptional vacation experience.

"Beautiful resort"

The check in went smoothly until we learned the room wasn't ready. We arrived earlier than check in time (11:30am) so it was our fault. Although this is the first time I've been made to wait at a resort. And wait we did. No one gave us any updates. After our checking with the front staff several times, the room was finally ready at 4:45pm (check in time is at 4 - so they were late). The room was beautiful and clean and kept that way by the fantastic housekeeping staff. The mini fridge was kept full and the snacks were replenished in a timely manner. The service included turn down. Most of our days were spent at the beach. If you can find a spot in Tony's area do so. He was fantastic, friendly, cheerful, speedy - and all the other things that'll make your day better. The food and drinks at the beach were great.The restaurants were great as well. Our favorites were the Japanese and Chinese restaurants. The italian and steak restaurants were fine. The mexican restaurant was very good. My favorite was the breakfast buffet. The choices were numerous and all delicious. All the wait staff were absolutely fantastic. Rueban at the Japanese restaurant was very nice and helpful. Please watch the checks though. Sometimes they include gratuity. We ended up tipping twice several times - although no big deal because the servers were great.The resort is beautiful and well-kept and the location is great. It offers fantastic views. Go to the garden as well. It's beautiful. Don't worry about the trolley - it's no big deal. Check out was clunky as well. Try to review your bill prior to checkout as we found a few charges that didn't belong. All in all I highly recommend this resort. You will not be disappointed. I hope to return.

"The Absolute BEST!"

We had such an amazing time at Hotel Mousai! We hadn't taken a trip in a while, so on the recommendation of a friend who had stayed here, we chose to go a bit outside of our initial price range - worth every penny and we'll definitely be back! Every single staff member was friendly and made us feel at home. The facilities were incredibly well cared for and clean. Our bed was amazing as was everything else about our room - bidet and heated toilet seat, hot tub, walk-in rain shower, remote lights and blinds, etc. The food was high quality and there were many options to fit a variety of diets. The ingredients were fresh, the dishes were well-prepared, and the presentation was beautifuldefinitely a higher quality than I'd expect for an all-inclusive. The cocktails were also creative and varied by the restaurant to fit the theme. Restaurant servers knew the dishes well and made excellent recommendations. The pools were gorgeous and perfectly heated. We wanted a quieter vibe and love beaches, so that's where we spent most of our time. The food and drink service at the beach was also exceptional. Far better food than at most beachfront locations! We were looking for our relaxation, so we didn't choose to engage in any activities or excursions, but there were so many things that we'll try next time! Honestly, the attention to detail was just impeccable in every area. That and the amazing staff interactions have us recommending Hotel Mousai to everyone we know!

Amazing views. Amazing food and service. The rooms always stayed clean thanks to Mariana Limo. She was lovely. Antonio at the steakhouse brought us the most delicious meal and even suprised me with a birthday spread and song played by a beautiful saxophone player. Ive never gone to a resort where the pay so much attention to detail and our needs.

"An Ideal Relaxing, Romantic Honeymoon Spot"

We were really impressed by our stay. The staff were all very friendly and greeted you whenever they saw you. The food was delicious and the drinks never tasted water down. The beautiful views and relaxing vibe made it the perfect honeymoon spot for us. We loved spending time at the pools; we ventured down to the Garza Blanca pools at times as the Mousai pools have no shade, but sunset on the rooftop was breathtaking. We never had trouble getting drinks or food by any of the pools. The options at the restaurants far exceeded our expectations and nearly everything was delicious unfortunately, the food at Noi wasnt quite up to the standards of the other restaurants, while we truly enjoyed the pizza, the pasta and gnocchi were overcooked, and the risotto was under. Everything at Dao and Hiroshi had us wanting more. Breakfast from The Terrace, room service and Blanca Blue did not disappoint either. The one night we ate at Bocados, the AC was not working so it wasnt as comfortable, especially seated near the kitchen, but the entrees were perfect; we also enjoyed breakfast there on the terrace. Our favorite though were probably the shrimp tacos and the burger at The Rooftop South. The food here is much higher quality than what you might get at a larger all inclusive resort; it doesnt taste or look like it was mass produced, even the buffets were above typical buffet quality. We added a romantic dinner on the beach as well. And every dining experience added to the celebratory nature with notes or extra details. We were there in September, which was hot and humid, the pools were quite warm-maybe a bit too warm. The evening turn down service was a great touch. And we were impressed with the beverage and snack options in the room. Were definitely looking forward to returning and also visiting their other locations. Sharing just a few of the photos we have.

Breakfast at Bocaodos was amazing and the severs Gio and Alan were attentive without being annoying. Alan offered great suggestions for traditional Mexican breakfasts.

"Dunno if I was really "upgraded.""

So this is a review for Hotel Mousai. I originally booked at Garza Blanca and got upgraded to Mousai for free. By the pure numbers Im not sure we got an upgrade per se, and others have noted this as well. Read my review of Garza for more on the upgrade.The service here is overall top notch, from bell service to the front desk to your suite youll find elegance and refinement are a strong focus of this property. One of the subtle notes youll find is the all inclusive and access for Mousai includes some access that Garza does not. For example, if you want to hit the rooftops for the edge pools during the day, you can only get service and seating if you are staying at a Mousai. After 8 PM all guests are welcome at the south tower. This is one of the upgrades moving from Garza to Mousai will get you.First thing youll notice is the trolly system to get you around the resort. They are nice enough, the drivers are amazing professionals, but somewhere there was a miss in communication. You see the roads leading up to the Mousai areas are cobblestone. These trollies were clearly designed for pavement. Long and short, get ready for some bumpy rides as the seats are solid wood. So no cushions on the seats, no air suspension on the trolly, its gonna get real bumpy, bring your own pillow if you dont have much padding on your posterior.Lets start with the room. Overall a very nice room. The minibar is stocked with Pacifico, Modelo, Corona, Corona Lite, Coke, Diet Coke, seltzer and tonic. Theres a small assortment of nuts and chips and a few snickers bars. Theres a Nespresso machine and also Belvedere vodka, Chivas whiskey, a reposado tequila, and a decent bottle of Cab. The hard liquors and cab seem to be another differentiation between the Garza and the Mousai. The bed is very comfortable and turndown service is typically offered daily.The Deck offered a beautiful view of the ocean, albeit from a bit of distance. The deck has a built-in spa which was functioning, but could have used some work. Several jets, 3 at the back level and both feet level were not functioning. Also the jets should swivel when on, only 2 were functioning to do so. The hammock was large and very comfortable. There is an external HDMI port below the flatscreen, but dont bother trying to use it as mine was simply there for show. Also I dont know if this is just the nature of the situation or something else. Minibar service and turndown service were quite prompt and on point for every day, but our last two days. Those days minibar was not serviced and on the last night turndown service came by around 1030 in the evening while we were in bed. So I dont know if service was off due to it being the end of our stay or something else.We did do the spa and highly recommend it. The hydro circuit was interesting and a lot of fun, the massages were top notch. I do recommend working with your pre-arrival concierge so schedule spa services at a discount and make restraint reservations.Overall, as I look at the estimated price for the suite we stayed in it shows all inclusive at about 380 a night per person or about 760 a night. Thats a good value for what you get at this property, but I would not consider it an upgrade from the original booking I had with the Honeymoon suite at 369 Per Person per a night. In the end, if I compare the two bookings for an exact future date comparison, heres the stats: Price for 6 nights: Mousai (Ultra Suite South, we did not get ultra as we did not have a butler, high floor, aroma therapy, or free wifi, but lets roll with it) $3753Garza (Honeymoon suite) $3643 all inclusiveNet difference: 110 a night or 660 for the stay. From this pure price perspective, the room upgrade could seem like an upgrade. But lets see what I lost, I lost a corner suite with a corner balcony closer to the ocean, a soaking tub, and nearly 330 square ft of space. What did I get? Child free hotel, 24 hr room service vs 7 am to 11 PM, liquor in my minibar, and access to the rooftop pool services/food during the day. I dont believe I came out on top for my upgrade so while the food, and service is 5 stars, the facilities are 4 based on the items noted, Im giving an overall 4 because I feel like a true upgrade would have been at least a corner suite at Mousai. Instead, I feel like I got shuffled to free up more room at the overbooked Garza. Not sure Ill be back if this is how they treat customers.So this is a review for Hotel Mousai. I originally booked at Garza Blanca and got upgraded to Mousai for free. By the pure numbers Im not sure we got an upgrade per se, and others have noted this as well.

In the end, if I compare the two bookings for an exact future date comparison, heres the stats: Price for 6 nights: Mousai (Ultra Suite South, we did not get ultra as we did not have a butler, high floor, aroma therapy, or free wifi, but lets roll with it) $3753Garza (Honeymoon suite) $3643 all inclusiveNet difference: 110 a night or 660 for the stay. From this pure price perspective, the room upgrade could seem like an upgrade. But lets see what I lost, I lost a corner suite with a corner balcony closer to the ocean, a soaking tub, and nearly 330 square ft of space. What did I get? Child free hotel, 24 hr room service vs 7 am to 11 PM, liquor in my minibar, and access to the rooftop pool services/food during the day. I dont believe I came out on top for my upgrade so while the food, and service is 5 stars, the facilities are 4 based on the items noted, Im giving an overall 4 because I feel like a true upgrade would have been at least a corner suite at Mousai. Instead, I feel like I got shuffled to free up more room at the overbooked Garza. Not sure Ill be back if this is how they treat customers.So this is a review for Garza Blanca. I originally booked at Garza Blanca and got upgraded to Mousai for free. By the pure numbers Im not sure we got an upgrade per se, and others have noted this as well. First thing youll notice is the trolly system to get you around the resort. The drivers are amazing professionals, but you see the roads leading up to the Mousai areas are cobblestone. Long and short, get ready for some bumpy rides as the seats are solid wood. So no cushions on the seats, no air suspension on the trolly.There will be a timeshare pitch somewhere during your stay.We did do the spa and highly recommend it. The hydro circuit was interesting and a lot of fun, the massages were top notch.

"Very posh"

Food and staff are wonderful. It's a very relaxed place to be. The rooftop pool is the best part. My wife and I have been here for 4 days and have no complaints. I hope the rest of the trip is as good as the beginning.

"Stay in the South Tower corner suite!"

Great hotel and amenities. We stayed in the South Tower corner suite and it was AMAZING! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The concierge, Rosie Rios, gave us great advice to hire Abraham Ibarra, with Amazing Tours Puerto Vallarta, for a road trip one day. He was so fun, friendly, and a great driver. He took us to the local communities and waterfalls. He is so knowledgeable about the area with many interesting facts. I could go on and on. I highly recommend hiring him for any day trip you wish to take. Hotel Mousai is gorgeous, the food was delicious and 100% with the all inclusive package. It isnt a bunch of cheap fried food and no buffets. All fresh and elevated dishes. Hotel Garzas beachfront access and pool are also amazing. Definitely our favorite place to stay.

"Mousai Puerto Vallarta : paradise on earth"

We recently spent a week in an ultra suite , south tower.From our immense terrace , we could admire the ocean, the gardens and the jungle:hard to beat.It was our first time in an all inclusive hotel therefore we cannot compared with others.However we sail from 2 to 4 times a year on 6 stars expedition or cruise ships and can affirm that food and service both are superior at Mousai.Mousai is all about details and the more you look, the more you can appreciateWe tried every restaurant and all of them were excellent: food presentation, quality of the ingredients and succulent taste.Our preference went for Hiroshi at dinner and The Terrace at breakfastThe place we enjoyed most was the roof top, north tower.Claudia does a fantastic job to make guests happy there.Talking about the staff, every one we encountered would deserve to be mentioned, what a great job they do.I will only name one : our butler Gustavo, very professional, attentive and also funny.Some members of the staff even tried their French to speak to us or wrote us notes in French, it was very appreciated.I would say the highlight of my stay was the 90 minute Diamond facial .Wow , so relaxing and with tangible results.Carmen , the therapist has magic hands .The hydrotherapy circuit that preceded it was both soothing and fun.The view from the relaxing area and the pampering we get are amazingI just went over my review and see that i use quite a few superlatives, that is how i feel about Mousai: a top hotel experience G.C.,Montreal.

"Hotel + Noi Review"

This was our second time at Mousai this year and it was a perfect relaxing stay. Rooms in both sout and north tower are beautiful. I do prefer the North tower view. All the staff is great making sure the guests are happy. This place is fantastic.I would like to give a special thanks to chef Massimo and our waiter Miguel at Noi. First time we stayed we skipped Noi because of the not so great reviews, but this time we gave it a chance, and ended up dining there 3/5 nights. Food was delicious and our waiter was very knowledgeable about food allergies and made sure that I don't touch anything I shouldn't

Just returned from our third trip to this lovely resort. It is truly a wonderful getaway for us. The food is great and the pool is unbeatable. We loved having Carlos as our butler, and Paulina the concierge was super helpful to me and to my husband when he needed something printed for a business issue. Ramon at the rooftop is top notch.

"The Staff are amazing, suites are great, thus 4 stars, but the food and wine, meh."

I stayed at Hotel Mousai for a week with my 85 year old mom. I researched extensively for a place that had exceptional service and outstanding food. I also looked for a place that had everything we could want on-site: restaurants with many options, pools and shopping as my mom uses a walker to get around and tires quickly. We have stayed at many highly rated resorts around the world. We did not take advantage of any of the on site activities. Our experiences were limited to the hotel, restaurants and Terra Luna village. Here is my perspective on where Hotel Mousai hit and missed.The Service. Without question the level of service is 5 Stars. Everyone is attentive, professional and trained to respond with a hand over their heart and a warm., "It's my pleasure" to any request. They learned our names, our drinks, where we liked to be by the pool, and they took special care of my mom which made the experience more relaxing for me. If I were scoring on that alone; 5 stars. The Suite. We stayed in room 6062 and it had an unobstructed view of the bay. We saw whales out front and had a great view of the New Years Eve fireworks over the water. The "plunge pool" is a jacuzzi. It was nice and warm but really hard for my mom to get in and out as there is no railing and the step down is sloped. It was rather shallow but covered shoulders if one slouched a bit. The beds were comfortable, the mini bar stocked, and the patio was lovely. Pre Arrival Service Miss. The pre-arrival concierge Miguel G ghosted me after the first email exchange. Didn't return two voice mails I left prior to arriving. So I was unable to take advantage of any pre-arrival booking discounts at the Spa. Spa Issues. My Diamond Facial technician needed training. He wound up applying a hardening mask over my eyes (leaving just a crack) and completely covered my mouth even after acknowledging my intake comment that I can get claustraphobia. Further, because it covered my eyelashes, most of my extensions came off when he removed it. I was offered a discount on my massage later in the week for the trouble when I discussed it with the spa manager. The 80 minute deep tissue massage I received was average at best. The technician had limited skills and seemed to think "deep tissue" just meant press as hard as you can and try to trace a muscle along the bone. My mom conversely said her technician gave her the best massage she has had in recent memory which is high praise. So maybe it's a training issue and not a widespread problem.Disappointing Dining. I really, REALLY wanted to like the food. I am the cook at home so having food made for me is a treat. We do dine out regularly so I appreciate well prepared meals with a nicely curated glass of wine. Sadly, with the exception of Dao, the Chinese restaurant (tip of the hat to Chef Lau, Adrian the manager, and servers Adrianna and Luis) every restaurant (excluding Karuma, $45 extra per person, didn't eat there and Canu or Kuali which haven't opened yet) had issues. The consistent problem was hot dishes arriving to the table cold and unpleasant to eat. Equally problematic was proteins arriving overcooked and tough or oversalted. After a few days of this I mentioned it to Gustavo who said he would talk with the managers of the restaurants. Things did improve (we had obviously been flagged as the managers came to our table to check in with us during meals). So I give credit for making adjustments. But every time we ordered it was a "wait to see if we have to send it back" moment which really detracted from the experience. The rave food reviews was the main reason I booked at this resort.Wine. The by the glass options for the All Inclusive package were uninspired and occasionaly undrinkable. The bottle options were better, but paying $120 USD (once you factor in the automatic tip on top of the bottle price) for a basic California Cabernet seemed a lot to ask. Cocktails were a better choice but didn't compliment the meals every time.Terra Luna Village. The shops contained your standard resort wear options and a few Mexican artist wares. Maybe because it was over the holidays, but the merchandise seemed low with few options to choose from in each shop. What would have been nice is a general store to buy sundries in the Village. I think there was one at Garza Blanca but I didn't get down there to explore. All that being written, would I go back? Honestly I don't know. The service was amazing and it felt wonderful to be so pampered. However, it is 30 minutes at least from Puerto Vallerta center so getting into town isn't quick and easy. Which means you really need to like the resort. Why four stars? The staff and the overall service. I am *very* particular about my food and wine. So what I mentioned above might not have bothered someone else. It could have been a short term issue that has since been corrected. But given the pricetag of the resort and the rave reviews online, I was surprised that there were so many issues.

"Two Tips to Help you at Hotel Mousai."

Best food and rooms of any all-inclusive hotel. Use to be your bracelet was all you needed with meals for all-inclusive. Now you must sign a receipt for every meal. And there is a place for a tip. If you don't give a tip -- awkward. Also be aware we requested a corner suite when booking with Costco. But Costco is only for floor 3 and below. You must get a "ultra corner suite" for above 3rd floor. Not offered by Costco. Finally, I do not recommend using the booking agency on the Hotel Mousai website. I used them once a couple of years ago, and called to ask a question, and they said they would call me back to me in a few days. That is not service. Best to use Costco. (Two years ago they had no English speaking TV channels -- so glad they do now).

"Our best trip to-date!!!"

This is the perfect luxury hotel for a long weekend getaway or extended stay. The hotel property offers everything you need if you dont feel like venturing out, and the views are amazing... from onsite excursions to the best food at any of their onsite restaurants! My Wife and I will certainly be visiting this location many more times in the future. To top it all off - the hotel staff - from the front desk and reception staff and restaurant staff, to the cleaning staff and pool staff, everyone treated you like family. Hotel Mousai and Garza Blanca are the absolute best. My Wife and I have traveled to many locations and stayed at various 'all-inclusive' hotels both individually and together over many years as middle aged adults, this hotel is #1 on our list. A special Thank YOU to Diego Dimora (our Butler) for enhancing our stay, it wouldn't have been extra special without You!!!

"Great views and very impressive service"

If you are going to Puerto Vallarta you must stay at Hotel Mousai. The property itself is beautiful, the standout being the stunning rooftop pool. We were extremely impressed with the service at the pool- Alan the pool concierge was a standout and took care of everything we needed, often times even anticipating what we would need and taking care of it before we could ask. The waiters by the pool, especially Mateo, were also amazing and extremely attentive without being overbearing. We were able to relax without being bothered but still have everything taken care of for us. This is a really tough balance to strike but Mousai has nailed it. The rooms at Mousai are very spacious, especially the balconies. We really enjoyed the view from the balcony in the morning and at sunset, especially from the plunge pool/jacuzzi. The decor is very modern but the furniture and bed were extremely comfortable. Every person that we interacted with at Mousai was extremely friendly and helpful. While the hotel itself is beautiful and has amazing views, the high level of service is what really sets Mousai apart from other hotels.

"First time at an all-inclusive resort."

We had never stayed at an all-inclusive resort before and Garza Blanca exceeded all of our expectations. We felt so pampered and cared for the entire time. We spent hours by the pool reading, sleeping, floating around enjoying the scenery. Even though it wasnt an adults only resort, we never felt the kids there were overwhelming. We enjoyed the feeling of privacy in that it is a bit out of the way. Food was excellent and all of the staff went out of their way to greet you at all times.

Our family of four, including our two grown children in their 20s, could not have enjoyed our stay at Mousai more than we did. The ultimate hotel for relaxing by the pool, while eating and drinking great! The rooftop pool setup has got to be one of the best pool experiences weve had no little kids doesnt hurt!!Special thanks to our personal concierge, Nicky. She was awesome! Alan and Guillermo also were outstanding at the pool. We loved each of the included restaurants - not always the case at an all-inclusive. 10 out of 10 for us!

We had a beautiful vacation at Hotel Mousai this December. The room was gorgeous and the views could not be beat. I really enjoyed staying in an Ultra Suite in the South Tower and Angelica was amazing with housekeeping. Gustavo was our butler and was extremely helpful. He was attentive and helped us with reservations and was just generally helpful. Our meals were wonderful and we especially loved eating at Hiroshi and DAO... Alberto was fantastic at DAO and went above and beyond with his service and recommendations. We loved Alonso at the bar at NOI who made amazing espresso martinis and Diego was fantastic as our kayak guide. We had a relaxing and wonderful vacation and can not wait to come back!

"A lovely resort. Excellent staff"

Garza Blanca really grows on you. We were a family of 9 ranging from one years old to early 70's. Three children under five. Garza Blanca strength is it staff. Excellent service, smiles and a true desire to assist whenever they can. Shout out to front staff who were very accommodating. The roomsThe two bedroom suite is excellent. Washer dryer and three bathrooms. Spacious with a full kitchen, dining table sitting area and great outdoor balcony.Bedrooms are a good size and easily slept a family of five. The rooms are cleaned daily and the staff did a very good job. There is a turn down service and they leave treats and restock the refrigerator drinks and towels. I felt it was above expectations.The king studio was spacious and had a small bar area with a fridge and sink. It had a small balcony, small bathroom and comfortable bed. The bathtub is very high. If you are short or have mobility issues it would be difficult to access. They was one chair and a small table. A long thin table was in the room with a futon. The room lacked a couch or chairs and table. It felt sparse and in need of place to sit. There is excellent room service options but no where to eat. The room service does leave the serving table if needed. But there is only one chair. That is a big miss.We brought in the balcony chair and table.The room has a large walk in closet a small closet and a chest of drawers.The restaurantsBreakfast at Blanca Blue is excellent. It is buffet and has many options. Very good service.If you have children you only have three dinner options. One Aquasil which is open infrequently about three days a week and takes reservations at 7. We never got there, too late a seating for us.The other two options. One Blanca Blue overlooks the beach and one Bocados is in the mountain area. Accessible by trolley.Blanca Blue is lovely large restaurant with an outside areas on the beach. The menu is quite large and there's are children's menus at all the restaurants. We found that it took way too long to get our mains. We are talking 40 minutes of more after the appetizer. That doesn't work with the young kids. So we asked for the food to be brought all at the same time. That helped. Service attitudes are great and the food is good. Bar service is available all day here. Nice staff Bocados is a ten minute trolley ride. It is a steak house. The trolley takes you around the property. If you have mobility issues it would be difficult to use the trolley. The kids loved the trolley. My back did not. The roads are bumpy and the ride is a tad rough. However the drivers are very nice and the views are quite spectacular.The views at Bocados are amazing. The restaurant feels high end and the food does not disappoint. The staff are all smiles and truly make the experience even better. This was our favorite option. Sunsets from the outdoor space were unforgettable.Overall with kids there are only two restaurants to eat at. That is not ideal for an all inclusive resort. Very repetitive. The other option is room service. But that is not ideal. I do not want to eat in my room. A dinner buffet would be a good idea. Something Garza Blanca should consider.The Pool and BeachThere is no issue getting chairs at the pool or beach.The pool starts getting busy after 10amBeach never was busyThe pool staff are great. Very attentive. Antonio was a wonderful friendly staff who checked in on us and was great with the kids. The chairs are comfortable. Not alot of sun at the pool all day. Certain areas had more sun, others had none. The pool service is excellent. Great pool menu and kids options. Very clean and constant maintenance of the chairs and grounds The beach is quite small. The sun is there all day.. At first we were taken back that the beach is not expansive. We are used to walking miles down the beach. Here it is basically the length of the hotel and had many loungers with tables and full service .There rocks at both ends of the beach. Lots of sand to make sand castles and for looking for shells. So all good. The water can be rough so be aware.The adult only restaurants are excellent and not too be missed.Or favorite was Noi. Overall Garza Blanca is a five star resort. However it lacks children activities.It has a small splash pad on the pool. The kids club had limited activities and was not ideal for our age group. The staff are so nice too. Always smiling and happy.Suggestions would be a park with a children's playground with swings, slides and climbing area. A splash pad with slides or lazy river. A perfect location for these works be TerraLuna. Such a beautiful location with a carousel would lend itself to a children's playground.We are used to going out and about when on holiday. There is nothing around Garza Blanca to wander to. So that took some getting used to. We would have needed access to three car seats to go on an excursion. That seemed like alot of work to arrange. We enjoyed our visit and felt that the food service, room service and food were better then expected.

"The not "All Inclusive" All Inclusive Resort"

The rooms & rooftop pools were excellent. The breakfast & lunches were good. The dinners were below average with the exception of Hiroshi's which was very good. Every eating experience had menu items with a tiny chef which meant it was not included and in fact expensive. One example was our friend got 1 chinese beer vs mexican beer and it was over $20, wow! At every meal and food/beverage order there was pressure to tip the wait staff which was nearly $300 USD additional cost to this all inclusive resort. As much as we enjoyed our stay, I'm not sure that we'll stay there again.

"Wonderful Service and Countless Activities"

My family and I had a wonderful experience at Garza Blanca in Pierre Vallarta. Everything from the service to the location and atmosphere was top notch. The views were stunning and the amenities are hard to beat. With multiple restaurants and excursions to enjoy, youll have trouble finding something you dislike. On top of that, the service and employees were phenomenal. They are very friendly and helpful, especially our activity directors Mike and Tito, as well our front desk associate, Yarely. Mike and Tito we met early on our trip while doing the resorts nature walk to a beautiful waterfall and swimming hole. They were phenomenal guides and remembered our names the rest of the trip. Yarely handled all our questions, of which there were many, and our room booking. She was extremely helpful and made things easy and clear.Also, when booking your excursions, keep an eye out for Francisco. He helped us book all of our activities, and made sure everything was handled on the business side so we could just enjoy the excursion. He is also a great person, and now a friend. You wont be disappointed with your stay!

From breakfast at The Terrace with our awesome server Nabile and our hostess Marisol, to dinner at Noi with our server Leonardo, dinner at Dao with our server Jose and dinner at Hiroshi with our servers Diego Silva, Miguel and hostess Janette. Every single person we interacted with enhanced our stay and made our vacation so much more enjoyable.

Mousai PV is and always has been our old trusty vacation resort in Puerto Vallarta. This would mark as our 6th visit to Hotel Mousai and even now, still maintains its quality with excellent services and care. The addition of new restaurants and tower as well as Tierra Luna Garden is an awesome touch by the resorts main company, Tafer Resort. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a high end but quiet all-inclusive resort.

"Never a complaint here"

We love this resort. Not a single complaint! The service is always excellent, the food is great, and on this trip we had a housekeeper named Mariana (Lima) we really loved. All I need to do here is lay by the pool and enjoy the all-you-can-drink and eat benefits!

"Great staff, beautiful property"

After a rocky start, we really enjoyed this property. Checked in to find the room we had been confirmed to be in at the North Tower was given to another party. It was a huge disappointment since the view was THE reason we paid for the upgraded room. We waited 40 minutes to speak with a manager who told us we would enjoy the South Tower just as well and put us in a corner suite on the 7th floor. View from the bed is directly INTO the North Tower which we did not enjoy. (Note regarding customer service: a simple question how can I make this better? is all that most people need to hear. This was a missed opportunity for excellent service for a poor experience made worse by perceived lack of concern.) We had also paid for a cake delivery to be brought to the room on the wifes birthday, but instead it was put in the room on the check in date (3 days prior). A minor detail that was a bit awkward when nothing arrived on the actual birthday. Next time we would skip the extra services. First night was dinner at Hiroshi based on reviewers comments. If you think sushi at Kona Grill is high quality, then you will enjoy this restaurant. We elected not to go back after the first night. We were fairly deflated with our experience by this point, and then to top it off, we could hear very loud music from a wedding party until 1:30am. Day 2 is when things took a turn for the better. Our butler informed us we could move to a corner suite on the 10th floor of the North Tower where the views were improved and there was no loud music for the remainder of our stay. The interior of the room was not as nice as the South Tower rooms because it is a bit older, but this was not a concern for us. Service at the pools, beach and restaurants were all great. Diego (butler) was very responsive to requests. The guides for the kayak and hiking tours were also fantastic. On the all inclusive plan, food was a bit hit or miss though much better than most other all inclusives, and the cocktails were incredibly weak. Wine was acceptable but not great. Learned to order all cocktails as a double. As far as our restaurant experiences, breakfast at Blanca Blue and the room service options were best. Lunch is mostly bar food at the beach and pool. Dinners at NOI and Blanca Blue were our favorites and we went back a second night to NOI. Bocados was disappointing (very tough steak and nearly raw baked potato). We didnt try DAO. None of the restaurants ever felt full though the resort was 95% booked. It was difficult to find lounge chairs on the rooftop after 12, but the beach had open spots even on the most crowded day.Lastly we had a spa treatment and got to access the hydrotherapy an hour prior. Highly recommend doing this at least once. Though we only used the gym once, there was plenty of equipment and no waiting for a machine.Would we go back? Yes. Would we choose all inclusive? Probably not. Would have liked to try some off property dining options, but having all inclusive makes one feel they need to stay to get their moneys worth.If youre here during whale season, I recommend Vallarta Natours for a whale watching excursion. Very knowledgeable people!

Great resort with solid restaurants and a nice beach. Our butler Gustavo was very helpful the whole time as was the entire staff of the resort. Its a bit from the airport, but worth it for sure. Views are great

"Not too far away from town, but far enough to have some peace"

Garza Blanca is a lovely resort built up into the mountains, a quick 10-12 minutes bus ride to the Malecon. Bus stop is conveniently located right outside the hotel grounds. Our room was a surprise with a spacious balcony complete with Hammock (we were in Tower 4 next to the steak house). We also had the luxury of a giant free standing tub overlooking the water in our room. Room was spacious and clean, 3 different pillows to choose from (considering I hate down pillows, this was great to have a choice). The resort is large and in the mountains so there was quite a bit of walking or you could wait for a trolley service to come around. There is a starbucks on site, prices are a bit high for a regular coffee con leche. Pools were clean and not crowded despite having families there for holiday. We opted to not do the all inclusive plan as we wanted to experience muchos tacos on this trip but I heard from other guests the food was good. If you want to stay away from Centro this is a great place to unwind. I was disappointed with the beach, however you have a great view of los Archos and can kayak over to them and snorkle there. Pros:Great location for some peace, beautiful resortClean and spaciousPools are lovely, never had to fight over chairs and towels (towels are folded on available chairs) empty chairs were assumed free and it was easy to locate towelsBus is convenient outside the resort across the street, quick and inexpensive way to get to town for the TACOS!Shoutout to Housekeeping for the extra coffee they provided us!Cons:All inclusive was offered to us at checkin but at $150/pp/day it wasn't reasonable for us for this trip. We got some soda and water at Walmart and had a fridge to keep them cold and went to town to eat our meals. We don't get the value as we are not big drinkers, so this worked well. The beach is small and rocky. Not bad to lay out, but getting in the water was a little tricky. You can see Los Archos from the beach and there's opportunity to snorkel there. The concierge isn't really a concierge, they are a sales team. We called to locate the gym and they directed us to the lobby. Got to the lobby they directed us back to Tower 5 (it's about a 5 minutes trek to the lobby). In Tower 5, we eventually found someone familiar with the gym who directed us to the elevators in Tower 5 to floor G from L1 (you keeping up with this?) Floor G does contain a decent gym with fantastic views of the bay and a decent set of machines and weights. We opted to ignore the welcome package and maybe that is where they give a tour and tell you about the resort, but we have been to a few of these and don't want to waste our vacation getting a sales pitch. Turndown service provides a snack and a small paper schedule for the following days activities. I think here is where a book or something in every room would be beneficial to describe the activities and where exactly to go or maybe even create some content for the hotel's channel on the television to talk about the activities?Our last full day we were heading out to the bus stop to go to the Malecon to buy some souvenirs and get some food. Just outside the lobby we were approached by a hotel employee named Omar who repeatedly questioned us about where we were going and who we were going to meet. We responded that we were just hopping on the bus to go to town 3 times before we eventually parted ways. It was just a weird interaction. He mentioned how the hotel keeps us safe and that they cannot guarantee our safety if we leave? We had been to town day and night for the past 4 days without incident.Check in time is 4 pm - standard time I have encountered has always been 3 pm. Regardless we arrived around 3 pm and were told to the room would be ready in 15 minutes. After 15 minutes we approached the desk to see if they were ready and they said no it will be 4 pm. Ok, fine. So we sat in the lobby and waited. It may have been in my exhausted travel day state that I was not inviting any conversation from the sales team. They asked if we wanted to eat or go to the pool, but after a long day, you just want to settle in your room first before you truly start your vacation. Not to mention, if you are not all inclusive, it can be pricey. Overall, if you are looking for an option away from town, Garza Blanca is a good choice. We were very comfortable in our room and at the pool. It was convenient to catch the bus and Uber is also a great option. The trolley service is also nice after a long night in town.

"Heaven on Earth"

This is our 4th time at Hotel Mousai. Each experience is better than the previous. We stayed in the South tower but spent most of our time at the North tower rooftop pool. Our butler, Carlos, was amazing and attended to all our needs. On his day off, Ernesto took over and equally amazing. Greta, the pool concierge was always there to help as was the restaurant supervisor, Jennifer. All so sweet and nice. All the waiters at the restaurants were there to please. Paola the elite member concierge knows her job well and always there to help. We met so many nice people during our stay and now have new friends. Highly recommend Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta.

"Great staff"

My husband and I visited last year and were excited to return in December for a 6 night stay. We were thrilled to see Vincente Joya at Hiroshi again! He is so incredibly knowledgeable of the menu and made perfect recommendations for us. Diego Silva and Janette at Hiroshi helped us as well and were both so kind! I have to also mention Javier on the beach! I had fun with him last year and this year was no different, he always made sure we had what we needed. The waiters on the beach (all of them) work SO hard and do a fabulous job! We also returned to Dao and were glad to see David, he is always so attentive and so friendly! We love Garza Blanca!

"5 diamond experience!"

Hotel Mousai is a true 5 diamond experience. We spend over a week at this resort and loved every minute of it. The rooms are very well done, and your private balcony has a hot tub and a Hammick. The roof top pool provides some of the best views we have ever seen, and the service is outstanding. The all-inclusive package is well worth it, and the food is amazing. Room service was excellent also. All the drinks were premium brands and anything we wanted was pretty much available. Our butler Ernesto was top notch. He was always checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. His service skills are amazing and always goes out of his way to make our vacation special. Thank you Ernesto!! One of my favorite things to do was to visit the South rooftop bar at night for a few cocktails. The roof manager was Rigoberto and he did an amazing job running the roof top bar each night. Great work! We also found all the other on the rooftop bar to provide outstanding service. Angel, Eduardo and all the others were providing outstanding service also. Bottom line....you have to visit the Mousai rooftop bar at night. Great fun and serviceWe went to the beach most days and they provide a trolly that brings you for a short ride down to the beach. This is truly a 5-diamond experience and want to thank everyone at the resort for always going out of their way to make our vacation the best. You have to visit this place! Steve & Beth Tennant

"Outstanding!!!! "

My wife and I have a wonderful experience at Garza Blanca Preserve in Puerto Vallarta. We had a honeymoon suite which was great. It was ocean front with a balcony overlooking the ocean and the pool. The suite had a private hot tub on our balcony. The All-inclusive was a great deal. Many restaurants to choose from and the room service was outstanding. Would highly suggest the All-inclusive package. The thing that stuck out the most was how friendly and dedicated all the staff was. We really want to thank our butlers Jose, Roberto, Alejandro and Felipe for the great service they provided during our stay. They were always checking in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and just provided outstanding service. Thank you!We spent most of our days on the beach and want to thank Javier who always stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed. We really want to thank him for always decorating our beach cabana with beautiful flowers every day. Javier you're the best! Thank you for all you do. Over the years we have gotten to know most of the servers at the beach and the beach pools. Roberto, Alejandro, Francisco, Ziem, Ivan, Juan, Panchillo and all the other servers are just outstanding people and really make your resort shine. All of them always welcome us with a smile and go out of there way even if they are not covering our area. This trip we had a chance to meet a new server who took care of us most days on the beach cabana. Oscar is such a great addition to the server staff. Oscar did an outstanding job taking care of us every day and was always one step ahead of us with what we needed. Oscar, thank you so much for taking care of us each day at the beach. You are outstanding at what you do. It also important to thank Joel who was always in the Garza lobby entrance. He always helped us and made sure to go out of his way to say hi and make sure we had everything we needed. Thanks Joel. One of my favorite things to do was take the trolly up to Hotel Mousai South rooftop bar at night for a few cocktails. The roof manager was Rigoberto and he did an amazing job running the roof top bar each night. Great work! We also found all the other on the rooftop bar to provide outstanding service. Angel, Eduardo and all the others were providing outstanding service also. Bottom line....you have to visit the Mousai rooftop bar at night. Great fun and service. Being that we stayed 8 nights at Hotel Mousai also I want to also express what a positive experience we had with our butler Ernesto while staying at Hotel Mousai. Ernesto is on top of things and 2nd to none as far as service goes. We had such a wonderful trip. The resort is beautiful, the rooms are great, the food is outstanding, and the employees are really top notch. My wife and I have been all over the world traveling and this is one of our favorite places. Thank you for such a great experience. Steve & Beth Tennant

We had an amazing time here - again. This is our 3rd time back in 3 years. The hotel, pool, food, spa are all top notch. Everything feels high-end including the customer service. We had a butler with our suite, Ernesto, who was incredible. He had the right mix between being present without overbearing, and went above and beyond in making sure we had the best stay possible. Its employees like Ernesto that make us want to keep coming back to Mousai.

Great resort! Beautiful rooms and outstanding service. The campus is spread out with trolly service through terrain and jungle that is easy to navigate. The spread out campus with multiple pools makes it feel private and not crowded even when there are lots of guests abound. The photo was our view from Tower 5, and i think virtually all rooms have a similar view. Mariana Lima provided outstanding service and helped make our stay very special!

"Must Experience "

First off the Butlers Jose, Felipe, Zuno, Roberto & Alejandro are amazing, they listen and make sure you have a wonderful experience! They set up reservations for you spa, dinner, etc., plus they make sure your room is to your satisfaction!We ate breakfast almost every morning at Blanca Blue. Please ask for Elaine, she is the manager but she will go above and beyond to help your needs are met and your dining experience is one that you wont ever forget! When you travel to Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta you will be amazed at the Views, the pools, the beach, going from the beach to the jungle do to speak is off the hook way better than Hawaii! They do have some bugs they need to work on! Not all staff members are on the same level of service they are trying to achieve rating wise. They are shooting for a 5 star they arent there in my opinion.. however they are close just need more training of staff. We have stayed at the St. Regis several locations and they dont miss a beat in service from there greatest to management and everyone in between the level of service is like no other. I believe Garza Blanca could achieve this same level of service. The Sales Staff Dustin who is the GM is remarkable! He doesnt pull any punches which I love that about him. Plus his British humor we love, thank you Dustin for taking care of us! Garza Blanca is very lucky to have him, he has such great vision and understanding of how Garza should be run and achieve their 5 Star rating, as long as Dustin is at Garza Blanca this place will soar!Thank you again Dustin for everything!Pascal is part of the sales team and I recommend working with him plus he has connections with restaurants in town and boy what amazing food. He recommended and setup reservations at Barcelona Tapas and wow the experience and food was amazing! We had the paella even though you have to be patient since the paella takes a bit but oh so worth it, the flavor and dish is spot on compared to Europe! The tapas were perfect small bites before our paella came oh and the drinks were fantastic along with the potato salad which is a must to tryyum. Thank you Pascal for exposing us to the restaurant and thank you so much for taking care of us!I do want to recognize Gloria for assisting us in the beginning upon arrival.thank you for all your help!Well I think I have said enough! If you truly want an amazing experience Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta will not disappoint!Yvonne & Tim Tilley

"Excellent experience"

The hotel is beautiful and the restaurants are delicious. Theres really no need to leave the resort unless you have something to do downtown. The waiters are so nice and helpful. Roberto was our waiter by the pool and he was excellent. My only complaint is the busing system that connects the various towers and restaurants. It runs every 15 minutes but Sometimes it feels like youre waiting forever, especially when you need to get to a reservation.

"Hotel Mousai is a MUST if you are visiting PV"

This is by far the best resort my husband and I have ever stayed at. Hiroshi: Miguel + Irving were both the sweetest! After spending 15 days in Mexico and traveling around to different parts of PV, our dinner here was by far the best! I literally still think about it. If you are staying at Mousai, dinner at Hiroshi is a MUST! Humberto was our butler during our stay. He was incredibly thoughtful and helpful! He was very responsive with our messages and always willing to go the extra mile. He set up coffee service for us and had the diffuser on with scents that we loved. The rooftop pools were some of our favorite parts of the resort. Alan was helpful with finding a spot for us and setting it up with towels. The serving staff was great and food was so delicious! We were very surprised how good the tuna ceviche was! Mousai has a trolly that goes throughout the 2 resorts. The trolly drivers were always welcoming, funny and friendly! If you are capable of making the kayaking trip to Los Arcos DO IT! Diego was our guide for the trip. He had an incredible energy and made the trip so fun. At Los Arcos you can snorkel and there are sóo many fish. I wasnt expecting there to be so many fish as soon as we jumped in.

"My third time at Hotel Mousai, and my favorite visit yet!"

I wanted to do something special for my mom on her birthday (she turned 64!) so I brought her on an all inclusive 4 night stay to Hotel Mousai. We had the most amazing time!Our butler Carlos was exceptional! He went above and beyond for us. He was super responsive, booked all of our reservations for dinner and the spa, and even arranged for the room to be decorated with silver and gold balloons as a surprise for my mom! If Carlos is your butler, you will be so lucky!I recently started getting back into tennis and noticed that Mousai has a court at their sports facility. So I brought my racquet along and Carlos was able to schedule me two lessons with a tennis pro. The tennis pro was Alfonso and he was SO GOOD!! Starting my mornings with an hour long tennis lesson in the middle of the jungle was awesome!! Highly recommend asking for Alfonso and a tennis lesson. The court is a little unorthodox (its also a basketball court & a pickleball court) but it was still amazing. They have all the equipment if you dont want to bring your own, and even had a basket of balls to practice serving!The rooftop pools are incredible, as all the other reviews will say. Ramon was our server (south tower pool) and he was so fun and made delicious margaritas from the margarita cart!! Breakfast each morning at the North tower was fantastic. We had Luis as our server there all 4 mornings and now that we are back home we definitely miss him. He remembered that we liked cappuccinos and a side of steak every time!! He even brought a special breakfast goodbye plate on our last morning, we felt so special.We also had a tequila tasting in our room. Yesenia came with a cart and taught my mom and me all things tequila!!! We learned a lot and had a hilarious time. If you have a chance to schedule the tequila tasting you should definitely do it- but make sure to have it a few hours before dinner because you will get a little tipsy!! We loved all the restaurants, but our favorite was Bocados! My mom loves tomahawk steak so we splurged on it (its not included w the all inclusive package) and it was worth every penny! The chef came out and carved it for us and wow was it delicious! Our servers Janko and Julien made the Bocados night so fun we had to go back a 2nd time!This was truly a 10/10 stay. Hotel Mousai is expensive but for me it is worth it every time. My mom had the most amazing experience being pampered by the staff, I am so grateful to everyone for making her feel special. Cant wait to go back again and next time bring my sisters! The vibes, the food, the views- it just cant be beat!!

"Another unforgettable vacation in paradise!"

This was our second trip to Hotel Mousai, and I am certain there will be a third. If you are looking for a peaceful, serene vacation, this is your place! We particularly enjoy the delicious food, divine cocktails/wines, friendly service, gorgeous views, and fun rooftop pool. Two "warnings." (1) While the address is in Puerto Vallarta, this is FAR from party atmosphere of downtown. Downtown is about 45 min away. This is not for you if you want to experience PV's nightlife. (2) They are doing construction in and around the grounds, which causes noise. This did not detract from our vacation, but you should be aware in case that matters to you.With that, Hotel Mousai is a beautiful place that quickly became our favorite vacation destination in Mexico. Now, I'm going to list some names. I know this is something guests are asked to do to support the staff, and it can feel a bit awkward and insincere. Let me assure you that I would not list one name if I didn't think each person was, in fact, exceptional. But they really, really were! Alanpool concierge, Mousai North Ivettespa team (mani/pedi) Gerardo and Ignaciopool servers, Mousai North Cesar, David and Albertowaiters at Dao Miguelwaiter at Hiroshi Marcoroom service waiter If you are lucky, you will have these folks (or great staff just like them) help make your stay even more amazing.See you again, Hotel Mousai!

"Loved my stay, north tower needs some updating"

Carlos is the best host. He made out stay 100x better. He really took care of us throughout the trip. The only thing i would say is that the north tower needs to be checked out some of the appliances are not working properly and its starting to show its age. The cabinet where the refrigerator is located heats up the snacks and liquor bottles as well which is inconvenient. Aside from that loved my time there and appreciate the great service from Carlos Ramos

"The most pampering resort with a view that you will find"

If youre looking for a relaxing vacation this is it. My husband and I came for our babymoon, we upgraded to a large suite on the North tower with the all inclusive package and had a beautiful view of the ocean from inside the suite and the balcony. Gustavo was our butler and he made sure we had everything we needed. One morning our hot tub wasnt hot and Gustavo had it fixed really quickly, he also went and bought us some sun block when we ran out. To say we were pampered is putting it lightly. The 24 hour room service was a life saver because I would wake up starving at 3am or 5am and would get a nice hot breakfast or a delicious burger within 30 mins. I also really liked that the toilet seats are heated, small detail that was very pleasant when you have to get up throughout the night to use the restroom. The only cons was the construction noise for a new hotel they are building next door during the day that you could hear from the room but we hung out mostly at the pool all day and then at our room or restaurants in the evenings so it wasnt a big deal. The service was impeccable from all the staff and the food was very good. This is not a party hotel, very relaxed and exactly what we needed and we enjoyed that there werent any kids splashing around/screaming. The views are unbelievable. They did try to sell us on the timeshare but they didnt push too hard when we declined the presentation. I would highly recommend this hotel.

It's simply unacceptable that I haven't reviewed this place before! This was our 6th visit to this particular resort. We were there for 4 nights. I can tell you that unequivocally each visit has been spectacular! We first visited in 2018 and we have now stayed in everything from the deluxe room to junior suites, Mousai and 2 bedrooms panoramic suites! We were initially invited by friends who have a time-share but we have always gone strictly all-inclusive and it is in fact the only way to go if you drink alcohol! One time I went with a friend who doesn't drink so we went without the all-inclusive and because we ate everything we set our eyes on..it basically came out at the same price as all-inclusive when we finished up..so..all inclusive is the way to go. We always get the amazing massages at the spa as well. They have a hydrotherapy room for the hour before your massage..it is amazing! So..this particular time we had an initial issue with our room but it was handled in the most exceptional way...we were upgraded and it simply could not have been a better experience in the end. Yes, 1 day was a bit aggravating but really service is always about how it gets handled and these folks know how to meet their 5 star status.!!They now have 3 amazing restaurants that are now part of the all-inclusive. Beyond exceptional. This place has 5 star restaurants so the challenge is how much can you eat every day?!! We always go to Hiroshi...but this time we also loved Noi and Dao. Additionally, you can't beat the breakfast buffet at Blanca Blu! Absolutely everyone was exceptional so it's difficult to mention everyone by name but..special thanks to Ricardo (driver) Nicole (front desk) and of course Adriana (gen Mgr)..you made it for us! Gracias! We will be back soon!

"Amazing stay at Mousai and excellent service from Humberto Mayordomo and all staff. A must stay place! "

Hotel Mousai was the most luxurious hotel I have ever stayed at. If you are looking for a relaxing couples get-away with an all-in-one experience, this is the place. You get your own personal concierge that checks in with you every day and helps you with reservations or whatever you need. Ours was Humberto Moyordomo and he was absolutely excellent. He went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. Even on his day off, he would check in on me and re- arrange services that we believed would be out of his control. You could get room service delivered to you at all times of the day and it was included. All suites are massive and have a private jacuzzi. We did the included kayaking/ snorkeling with Angel and it was the most fun and adventurous experience he was an amazing guide, as well as Mike and Roni on our included waterfall hike. Every day we went to the adults only pool which had incredible views and great music, food and drinks. We were greeted by Alan who helps you get the best beach chair with shade or sun and is so friendly and helpful. Then we got amazing service from Antonio, Marcelino, Ruben, Greta and Picho. As well as Gio at the restaurant. I usually dont get blown away with food at all inclusive hotels, but this food was exceptional with great presentation and great flavors. The restaurants were so delicious and very high class and everyone was extremely prepared with great service. I only have good things to say about this hotel and I have been recommending it to all of my friends and family because of the great experience I had.

"Great experience "

Beautiful resort. Amazing food and location. The check in process was kind of a nightmare as they overbooked the hotel and didnt have the room we reserved near the rest of our group. They put us in a two bedroom suite instead, which was immaculate, and comped us a couples massage, so it more than made up for it. Marisol Lopez from housekeeping more than took care of us and provided excellent service. We could have spent a month in that room.

"Garza Blanca delivers a great vacation experience."

Just returned from Garza Blanca PV. These are the strong points: all staff and employees all have wonderful friendly attitude.We did the All Inclusive- best way to go if you staying primarily in the resort. Foodwas excellent (not often the case with All Inclusives).Beach is wonderful, soft sand, and clear water, calm and NO seaweed anywhereBye-Bye Cancun for that reason.The main activity pool is great but not for us- by mid-day every sun bed that surroundsthe pool is full so it's almost rubbing elbows with your fellow guest, and there is really little peace and quiet with the music fed from speakers the whole day. For peace and quiet the beach is the only option. There is a smaller pool just up the hill (via trolley bus).For breakfast the best spot is Blanca Blue without doubt - the best buffet I've seen in years (and we have visited 18 Mexican 4 and 5 star resorts over the years.(Special mention to Blanca Blue Mgr, ELAINE, who was exceptional in every respect.)Too many names to mention, but all staff- concieges, waiters, check-in, room service etc. were the best I have encountered - Glarza Blanca gets 5 star rating for this alone.Only a 40 minute transfer from the airport.We gave the steakhouse, the Chinese and the Japanese restaurants the best ratings.Blanca Blue is also included here but the Dinner menu we found somewhat limited.(Check the web-site for menus). Note : with the All Incl. plan you have accessto the restaurants in the Mousai resort (adult only) just a few minutes by trolley.Would go back for sure.

"Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta Oct. 23 - Nov. 2, 2023"

We were two couples who enjoyed a beautiful, spacious 2 bedroom mountain suite with a huge wrap around balcony, hot tub, large kitchen, washer and dryer (that sure came in handy)! We were on the 3rd level which was great for the full ocean views and bird watching. There were activities available for all ages. The restaurants offered delicious food and drinks our favourites being Blanca Blue breakfast buffet (Christian & Martin), Blanca Blue dinner (Marco & Andre) where the tomato salad, roasted corn cream soup and catch of the day are always ordered by us; The DAO Contemporary Chinese restaurant was a favourite among us all. Tierra Luna is lovely, fun to ride that Carousel. The shops were nice, but had many luxury items we didnt need. Many staff made our stay extra special, some having been employed there for several years Concierge: Jessica & Gloria; Butlers: Alexandro & Jose; Beach Pool: Alvaro, Mike, Rolando & Thoonie; Garden Tour: Estefania & Tito; Housekeeping in Tower 5: Jacqueline & Mariana. Already looking forward to next time. Adios

"Wonderful Staff Aids Good Experiences"

The staff at Garza Blanca keeps us coming back. We see a lot of the same faces every time we go. We view this as a sign of good management, which is very important to us in supporting a business. (Note: we are members of the residence club at this establishment and usually visit twice per year although how often we visit is up to us.)We had especially good turn-down service this time from Marisol Serrano. (The daytime maid service, as is frequently the case, was less reliable and Marisol made up the deficiencies.) Bellmen Victor and Joel were very attentive. All of the butlers were very solicitous as usual, helping us with reservations and other special requests. The service at restaurants Blanca Blue, Bocados, and Hiroshi, and at the Spa was excellent. There is frequently a wedding party when we are at Garza Blanca, and the Blanca Blue bartenders do an amazing job of keep up with a very crowded and noisy bar when that is the case. And the trolley drivers are very amiable and good at assisting those who need extra help climbing aboard.When planning to take advantage of the various activities around the resort, double-check with the concierges ahead of time to make sure your desired activity is actually happening as scheduled and in the location advertised. We have enjoyed the late afternoon music sets and the botanical garden tours.

"The staff are the best"

We visited with friends for a week at the end of November. We love this place and have been many times and it keeps improving with more facilities.What has stayed the same and what sets GB apart from other similar resorts are the staff. They are happy, fun to be around offer a level of service that is unsurpassed. All staff are like this, from house cleaners, to reception to restaurant staff and poolside - without exception all amazing. This time we had the pleasure of having the following staff members make our stay particularly memorable. Panoramic pool - Tony and Alejandro two great guys who had amazing service and always with a smile. Thanks guys.Blanca Blue restaurant for breakfast where Cristian was in hand to help us and then as we migrated to the beach Juan was ready with towels and cold water (or beer!!)Hiroshi restaurant- so many amazing staff. Starting with Alejandro and Alejandra on the first night (yes we went back for a second night as it was so good).The second night Alejandro was not our waiter but came up to say hi and welcome us and then we had the pleasure of being served by Irving, Ruben and Jannette. Just the nicest polite and expert staff.Our favorite concierge Gloria and the fantastic team of butlers, Jose, Roberto, Alejandro always making sure our every need was taken care of.Once again GB your staff excelled.

It was our first time with the whole family and we cant say enough about how wonderful and family oriented the facilities are.

He made each day better than the previous.Gustavo and Juventino at Blanca Blue made each meal there one to remember. And Gustavo made such a great Mexican coffee!Last, the ladies working at the kids club (Brizzet, Berenice, Samantha, and Cristina) made our daughter so comfortable and have so much fun. It was our first experience with a kids club and our daughter was obsessed with it and wanted to be there all the time.

Garza Blanca Resort was a great place for us to enjoy a wonderful relaxing weekend. The food was good especially the tacos and steaks at Bocados Steakhouse and the Asian restaurant had great dumplings. The chef at the Asian restaurant is truly amazing.Our waiter, GIO at the steakhouse took great care of us and made excellent recommendations. Jorge went the extra length to make sure our stay here was extra special. The people here are friendly and wonderful.You have a trolley that takes you to each tower; they have a total of seven towers.

"Our fifth visit and won't be our last!!!"

This was our fifth visit to the resort, and despite a major hurricane impacting the area a week earlier, service was on point. We did have a late check-in, but the staff was still having difficulties getting to the resort for work, and delays were understandable. We were delighted to see our favorite concierge Orlando was back, and he took the very best care of us during our entire stay. On the beach, Joan Suarez delivered exceptional service and was a pleasure to visit with. Fall 2022 we ate at Karuma and had an amazing meal. This fall, Karuma was included in the all-inclusive plan, for a $45 upcharge, but the meal was awful. We raise cattle in Wyoming, and the steaks were about what one would expect from a truck stop off of I-80. It's safe to assume the chef from Argentina has left and lower quality meats have been replaced for still an exorbitant cost. For steak, we recommend Bacodos instead. The most outstanding meal was at DAO, and David G was an exceptional server. We had breakfast daily delivered to the room, and the menu had been upgraded and the food was outstanding. We did agree to a membership presentation, and it was tolerable. As this was our fifth visit, we were interested in pursuing membership options. We declined however since the deal was only good while we were staying at the resort, and they refused to allow us to submit the contract to our attorney for review prior. Can you say RED FLAGS, ha!!! Overall, another great experience at Garza, and we intend to come back soon.

The service, food, and location are incredible! The staff are very attentive. All-inclusive was worth it - we got to try almost all of the amazing food. The Japanese place is especially good, but all of the food is amazing! Not many activities during the week. There was usually dance music being played everywhere on the property, and it would be nice to have some quiet serene places. There is also a lot of construction going on for a while since they are building more resorts, so that is also loud. The one very peaceful place was the spa - wonderful massages and overall sensory experience.

What a remarkable hotel. From the moment we arrived and we are greeted warmly by Ricardo who actually remembered us from last year, until we were wished, safe travels home by the best concierge we have ever met, Jenny Penny. It was lovely meeting our new butler, Ernesto. He took wonderful care of us all week. We actually got to see and chat with our butler from last year Lillith, who was on her last shift prior to maternity leave. What a delightful girl she took great care of us last year. The wait staff were spot on all trip. Amir, our bartender was always willing to whip up something fun for us at our request. Our rooftop pool server George was great all week. Our dinner at Dow was exceptional and our servers. Eduardo and David did a remarkable job. We were very excited to meet chef.Khen Ihao and thank him in person for the lovely job hes done with the menu. Last but not least our new friend, Abigail, Terrace hostess, greeted us warmly, and affectionately every single day. I look forward to seeing her again soon what a bright light.

I had an amazing stay at the Mousai Hotel! The location is perfect, offering spectacular views that took my breath away. The rooftop infinity pool is jaw-dropping and provides a stunning vantage point to enjoy the surroundings. The beach is well-maintained and pleasant, and the calm, clear waters on this side of the bay allowed us to truly savor the ocean.But the absolute highlight of our stay was the SPA experience.

"Hotel Mousai - Adults Only AI"

Hubby and I really needed a quick getaway and I had signed up for emails from Tafer who owns Hotel Mousai and Garza Blanca resorts. I typically do not look at all inclusive resorts but was intrigued by this one especially as Hotel Mousai is adults only. Which we always look for when traveling. We were in the South Tower and were upgraded to the Ultra Corner Suite South. This room is gorgeous and has a wrap around balcony. The views here are incredible. I love Puerto Vallarta in large part due to the amazing sunsets. Mountains and ocean views are gorgeous. Transportation from PVR was arranged by the hotel as it was about 45 min drive or so. Our room was not ready at arrival which was about 10am so they held our bags and we headed up to the south rooftop pool. Absolutely stunning views. And enjoyed some of the best guacamole while waiting on our room which was ready in less than an hour our assigned butler was Ernesto. He was a delight and constantly checking on us to see if we needed anything. He arranged for champagne and a charcuterie delivery to our room. We pretty much lounged at the pool every day we were there which was 4 days. I could stare at the view daily and never tire of it. Everyone at the poolside was very attentive and made sure our drinks were not empty. As I mentioned this is an AI but the alcohol is top tier (Grey Goose) and the food was excellent. Not a buffet in sight. We are at Dao, NOI, and BocaDos Steak house which was located at Garza Blanca. Go to BocaDos for dinner at sunset. So pretty! Since we were at the pool daily we ate there for lunch daily. Only ventured out for breakfast and dinner. Breakfast at the Terrace was sóo good! Located at the north tower, the Terrace is an outdoor setting with amazing views. We did have a spa day which everyone who stays there needs to partake. We did the hydrotherapy ritual and had a couple massage. The hydrotherapy ritual was definitely a first for me but we both loved it. And of course the views from the spa were of course amazing overlooking the ocean. Unfortunately I did not do a good job of capturing everyones names to give them some trip advisor love so I am hoping the resort can look up our massage therapists at the spa and let them know how much we enjoyed it. Every day at the pool there was a lady who set us up in the same chairs daily. I thought I would remember her name and I know it begins with G (maybe Gilda or Gina?) I waited too long to write this review and have completely forgotten all of the names. I will say that everyone who worked at the north rooftop pool between September 14-18 deserves recognition. The one negative was our hot tub on our balancing kept over heating so it would stop working. Ernesto did have maintenance on top of it and it would get fixed but only temporarily. We had maintenance come daily to fix it. Ernesto was very apologetic about it and it wasnt his fault at all. I did mention it at check out so hopefully a permanent solution can be found. We definitely plan to return to Hotel Mousai. We love a kid-free resort!

"Great double birthday celebration! Great food and service! "

We had a wonderful experience at Hiroshi this past Sunday evening. We had been before in May and recognized our servers Diego Silva and Ruben Santana. They work together extremely well. They know the menu well and were able to steer us with gluten and salt restrictions to the best options to order. Our whole meal was delicious and beautifully presented. Cocktails are wonderful! We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and brought our two birthday boys a special dessert plate! Janet Zuniga was a behind the scene star. We will be back on our next trip! Book now ! You wont be disappointed!

"Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta "

Everything was perfect. The corner room provided outstanding views of the ocean and the forest. The staff were incredible and met our every need. While there, we endured Hurricane Lidia and a torrential rainstorm the following night. The staff had to work super hard to clean up the mess and make the property ready for use. They didn't miss a beat. We look forward to our next visit.

Arrived at Hotel Mousai 1 day after a Cat. 4 hurricane. You would have never known that the hotel had just experienced a terrible weather event. Stunning views and incredible service. Will definitely come back! Food was so good. We had Gustavo as a butler, he was top notch. Cannot recommend this resort enough.

Above and beyond. The staff is wonderful, the pool is beautiful, and the room was incredible. Our bed was so comfy too! It's still 15-20 minutes from the Romantic Zone and Malecon, but it looked like all the nice hotels were farther away. The only reason I wouldn't stay here again is just because I'd want to stay in the heart of the Romantic Zone next time.The food was pretty good. Nothing seemed authentic Mexican. It was just good hotel food. My only small thorn in the side was that I was charged $4 after we left. I'm guessing it was for candy or a soda in the room but we didn't take any of it.

"Starting to lose its luster"

My husband and I had our 4th stay at Hotel Mousai in July. Our previous 3 stays were close to perfect and we couldnt wait to return!The first change we noticed is we were never contacted by a pre-arrival concierge, as we were on our previous visits. We previously were emailed regarding pre-arrival requests at least twice before we arrived. We stayed in the north tower, which continues to be our favorite tower. Housekeeping in the morning was punctual and did a great job. We only received nightly turndown service once during a weeklong stay. Drinks and snacks being stocked in our room was hit and miss. The rooms are starting to show some wear and tear. Service at the pools and restaurants was generally good. On this visit, a few of the servers at the pool were soliciting larger tips and irritated when we were not handing out $20 (USD) bills. We thought we were tipping well for the quality of service. Dao continues to be our favorite restaurant. The food, service and ambiance are top notch. BocaDos is great in the evening. During breakfast it was extremely loud with lots of screaming children. The quality at Noi has slipped since our last visit. Room service was efficient and the food was fresh. We enjoyed going to the south tower lobby bar in the evenings before dinner. We booked directly with Hotel Mousai and were given a resort credit. When checking in, I inquired if I could use the credit at the salon. When checking out, the same receptionist who checked us in (and who said I could use the credit in the salon) told me the room credit cannot be applied to salon services. Well stay at Hotel Mousai again in the future, but we arent in a hurry to return.

"Unforgettable Experience"

This resort is absolutely gorgeous with the breathtaking views and sunsets. The food is wonderful, our favorite is Blanca Blue and Aquazul. The reason why this resort is unforgettable is the outstanding staff service. The service is impeccable to what we know in the states as you can see that they truly love what they do and they have so much passion, care, and love towards their customers. Mario, first night at Blanca Blue did an amazing job of being attentive to every request and he showed true passion towards his job. Danny, our kayaking tour guide did an excellent job of keeping us safe and it was so much fun! At the end of the day my wife and I were feeling sexy!! Ronaldo, our tour guide for the hike did an awesone job of navigating through the jungle to get to the waterfall. Great guy and loves what he does. Nancy, our Mexican bingo and bracelet making hostess did a superb job and had such a genuine and kind personality. Za'am and Rogelio waited on us each day at the pool side and beach side loungers. They were always attentive as we never had an empty glass and very respectful. I want to commend the staff on their excellency. Overall a great stay and we will be coming back.

"Third Time to Mousai "

Since this is my 3rd time visiting this resort, my expectations were very high. We have visited pre-in post Covid. In the past we would give this resort a five-star rating. However it appears that recently while the place is still awesome, they seem to be cutting some corners.We arrived as a group and there was no welcome drink.The Butler service seem to be based upon text messaging. We only saw our Butler on one occasion and the rest of the communication was by text. In the past they would make it a point to come and visit you daily.In the past the use to give great chocolates during turndown service. In its place there is now a cookie.We have never had a situation regarding our minibar not being serviced, however this time our minibar was not service for one day.We also noticed that the room was not is clean as in the past.The facilities were great and the service was on point. The complaints above I would characterize as minor however for a truly five-star experience we should not have to have these issues. I would definitely come back again. Hopefully these small minor issues will be worked out.

"Rest and Relaxation at it's Finest"

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Mousai this past week and it was absolutely an excellent experience. The staff was super very friendly and always at your service. The food and drinks were of highest quality that we've experienced in quite some time (as we've been to numerous all-inclusive resorts over the years). The hotel was modern, clean with very well- designed rooms (all rooms have amazing views, but the corner suites get three different views. I recommend the North Tower PV/Bay view). The entire resort was amazing with shuttles to/from the beachside pool & restaurants were timely and relaxing as they wind up and down through a beautiful tropical atmosphere. Everything you need to adjust your room (music, lighting, sheers, curtains, etc.) were accessible on an iPad or wall units. The balcony hot tub, loungers, couch and hammock were all very clean and enjoyable. I really can't say enough good things about this resort and the bonus was that Hotel Mousai (all adult) is also connected to the properties of Garza Blanca (family friendly). It had something for everyone! We will definitely return again and again!

"Another exceptional week at Garza Blanca"

We've been coming to Garza Blanca since 2018 and it continues to be one of the premier resorts in Vallarta. The dramatic topography, bringing the mountains right into the sea makes for special scenery.We enjoyed several of the restaurants for dinner (Hiroshi, Dao, Karuma, Blanca Blue), and although very pricey for Mexico, the quality, service and atmosphere are very good.The personnel all over the resort is friendly, attentive to all your needs and focused on attention to detail. Kudos to Roberto (mesero), our waiter at the main pool most days, as well as to Guadalupe, our maid for the week.Special mention to Lorena Pea, who has been helping us several years at the Concierge team - she has done a fantastic job taking care of us!

"BEST couples trip! "

We had the opportunity to go to our favorite hotel, Hotel Mousai in our all time happy place, Mexico! We went with great friends of ours, who have also visited on their own a few years back. We all stayed in the south tower, and not to be surprised everything was amazing and therefore I need to write another review. From the moment you enter the lobby to start your trip to the time you depart back to the airport, everything was absolutely perfection. Once again, we requested the most amazing Buttler Hotel Mousai is lucky to have, Carlos Ramos! He was messaging us via WhatsApp well before we arrived to ensure reservations, and our room was set. Our room was stocked with the mini fridge as well as the message Welcome Back in flower petals. He also set up as a surprise in our friends room with happy birthday balloons, dessert, and drinks. Every morning, seats were reserved at the pool and we were looked after throughout the day. Kayaking, Hydro therapy/spa appointments, dinner reservations, and daily lattes, mimosas, and fresh fruit were all taken care of. We had a very special lunch on the rooftop that was a Mexican barbecue and it was amazing. So many of the staff have remembered us from our many visits, and all the friends that we have sent and they made a point to go out of their way to say hello and take care of us. Entertainment every night on the roof was excellent including the fireworks to celebrate independence day for Mexico. The resort was a bit quiet due to the season and we loved that. I can not say enough how beautiful this resort is, how amazing the service is and excellent the food & drink. ALL the staff are incredibly kind and work so hard. Some of my favorites are:Matteo, Ignacio, Gerardo & Greta on the rooftop Miguel, Alejandro & Alejandra @ Hiroshi.

"If you're thinking about it just do it!"

My family had a great experience at Garza Blanca Resort. It wouldn't have been as great without the wonderful staff. One of the best places to spend a 10 day vacation. It all started with a warm welcome from our concierge Montse. She walked us to Blanca Blue for lunch where we met the amazing manager Elaine. Elaine made our trip so memorable. She treated our baby boy Rio like her own and was very welcoming every morning we went to enjoy the delicious Blanca Blue breakfast buffet. If she wasn't there, the hostess Leslie took very good care of us. She was also welcoming and attentive to our needs. Every restaurant had great food and service- the Chinese restaurant Dao is a MUST TRY. We were celebrating my wife's and sons birthday and the celebrations for dinner were great. BUT Blanca Blue has our heart because of Elaine & Leslies service! I cant leave out the waiters too: Lorena, Omar, Cristian, Alex. Marco, Osirus, and his other partner who's name I forgot lol were great during our dinners there too. The awesome service doesn't end there. The poolside service was unbeatable. All the gentlemen servicing us out there always had a smile on and were quick. There was one that went above and beyond for us more than once; Roberto! I will finish this review by highlighting the people behind the scenes that we rarely saw but deserve a lot of credit for their exceptional work. Our housekeepers Silvia Luna & Luz. Silvia went out of her way two of the nights to decorate our room for my wife's birthday. Very important and romantic touch! Thank you all and see you soon!

We didnt quite know what to expect coming to Dao, an upscale Chinese restaurant in the lobby of Hotel Mousai. But whatever our expectations were, Dao exceeded them. The atmosphere and decor were spectacular, the service was incredible, and the food was unparalleled. We had potstickers, shrimp dumplings, a chow fun dish, honey glazed walnut shrimp and a cucumber salad, all of which were extraordinary. Our service team of Luis and José made our evening even more memorable, along with the opportunity to meet the talented Chef. We highly recommend!!

"Beautiful views and rooms, but the best part is the staff!"

The resort is beautiful, but the staff and service is what makes it so phenomenal. We travelled with 4 kids (10, 6, 2 and 5 months) for our 12th anniversary and the staff from restaurants to cleaning service went above and beyond. Noemi, Jorge and Geo were so welcoming and attentive at Bocados STK. Max and the staff at Blanca Blue made meals so special and made us feel like family. The pool service staff was always attentive and considerate. The trolley drivers were so sweet to my 2 year old who just loved the trolleys. Ive never been so sad for a vacation to end. Even checking out of the hotel was a great experience with Angel and the concierge staff (Natalia). The travel agency on site helped us set up a phenomenal fishing trip. By far the best vacation weve been on and a large part of that is because the people who work at Garza Blanca Preserve make you feel welcome and cared for. Looking forward to our next vacation there.

"Wonderful experience during our stay"

Our most recent stay was, as usual, exceptional. We went on the complimentary Los Arcos Kayak tour. About a 2.5 hour paddle to the National Preserve area. We paddled through 2 sea caves and did some snorkeling as well. Danny was our guide and he was wonderful. He was supportive of the group and provided historical facts of Los Arcos, the Bay of Banderas as well as Puerto Vallarta. I highly recommend this tour.We enjoyed our stay at Garza Blanca. Alma provided our maid service and was extremely thorough and super friendly. Coming into a clean fresh-smelling room after a long day of pool time or other activities was so enjoyable The lead Pool Concierge, Mike, is 2nd to none. Whether he's assisting us at the pool, leading poolside activities, or taking time to chat, he's the best!Can't wait to return!Pete & Michelle

"Our Favorite Place to Stay in Puerto Vallarta"

We have stayed at several resorts in Puerto Vallarta and Garza Blanca is definitely our favorite. We love the setting of the mountain towers with the great views of the water. The 2 bedroom units are amazing, we spend most nights enjoying the private hot tub on the wraparound balcony. The food is also excellent, with our favorites being Hiroshi (Japanese) and Dao (Chinese). We usually don't do all-inclusive as we like to eat in town, but we always do a couple of dinners at the resort due to the outstanding quality of the food. Service is another area where Garza Blanca excels and we always feel very taken care of during our stays. On our most recent visit, Jose, Felipe, and Alejandro checked in with us several times a day and made sure we had everything we needed (dinner reservations, transportation, etc). Overall, we had a great visit and we can't wait to go back!

"What a great 5 diamond resort!"

We spent 10 nights at Hotel Mousai North building in June, 2023. We had a wonderful stay and plan on going back again. This was our 6 visit to Mousai and we have yet to find a better place to go. We had a higher Floor suite, and the views were incredible. The room and resort staff were top notch, and you definitely could tell you were at a 5-diamond resort.We did the all-inclusive and would highly recommend this to everyone. The restaurants were excellent and was the best all-inclusive experience we ever had. We have tried the all-inclusive at other resorts and often found the food to be just ok. You don't need to worry about that at Mousai. The staff was outstanding. It is very clear that everyone at the resort put a lot of care in their work. There only mission was to make sure our vacation was the best it could be. Our butler, Ernesto, was excellent and he always went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly suggest Ernesto. On the days Ernesto was off we had Carlos. Carlos was also an excellent butler. While on our trip I ended up needed medical attention and Carlos called the on-site doctor for me. The doctor came to our room and gave me 2 stiches and I was out the door and going to dinner all within an hour. So, comforting to know they have a doctor on site. Thank you, Ernesto and Carlos. The roof top pool is like nothing we have ever experienced. The views are incredible. You have a beautiful view of the ocean and mountains all in one pool. The service was top notch, and the rooftop food was amazing. It also has a full bar with all the premium liquors for those that want a drink. You have to experience this!We spent a few days down at the beach also. The service was once again top notch. Javier is the beach manager, and he made a point to visit us every day and make sure we had everything we needed. He also brought flowers over every day which my wife loved. Thank you for making us always feel at home Javier!!It also very important to mention how safe we felt at this resort. It is very laid out and trolly was always available to take us to different parts of the resort if you didn't want to walk. We also went into downtown several times for dinner. You can feel safe to eat and drink anywhere in downtown. The south roof top bar is also open until 1 am each night for those of you that want to hear some music and have a drink or two. The servers and bartenders are excellent. One of our favorite things to do was room service. You have an iPad in your room, and you can order food anytime. If they don't have something listed on the menu just ask and most the time they will accommodate. Food was excellent and having breakfast on our balcony was outstanding. We have traveled all over and still find it hard to beat what Hotel Mousai offers. Views, Food, service, spa are just hard to match much less beat. We are going back in November and can't wait!! Thank you Hotel Mousai for such a great vacation!!Steve & Beth Tennant

"Dont Hesitate"

Hotel Mousai was a DREAM. Immaculately clean. The staff was so kind, friendly and helpful to us for the entire duration of our stay, especially Jennifer and Ricardo at the front desk, Danny, Ronaldo and Carlos (Nacho) on the beach, and the staff at the North rooftop.The kayak tour with Diego was a highlight of the trip. My massage from Naiomi at Spa Imagine was the best Ive ever had. Dont hesitate to stay here.

"Not 5 stars for me"

Sorry guys, it will be long. As a travel agent, I have to let you know. Me and my husband and I decided to spend our 15th year anniversary at this hotel. Booked it for 9 days from August 25th to September 3rd. I picked the ultra suite in the south tower, which included butler( thank you Carlos) and some other extras. We had a private transfer from the airport, so that ride was about 45 minutes. Pretty easy check-in process,but during that process those friendly faces are trying to get you into kind of timeshare(they call it differently).After saying no about 10 times we got to our room and Wow it didn't disappoint. Big room with a big bathroom and just as big balcony/ patio with a hot tub and amazing ocean/,jungle view. I love that everything in the room like lights,music, TV remote, window curtains etc. was controlled from the iPad-super convenient. So for the room definitely 5 out of 5!!! Hotel premises: everyday we spent at least couple of hours on the rooftop in south tower. There was never a problem to find lounger by the pool. Great views, music and amazing service: Greta, Daniel, Gustavo,Ignacio and all the rest of you guys( sorry can't remember the names) were absolutely amazing 5 out of 5....thank you for making our stay so much better. Food and restaurants: we went twice to each of the specialty restaurants: favorite- Dao(Chinese) then steakhouse, then Hiroshi and least favorite was Noi the Italian ( service here is very very slow-for no reason). We always had lunch on the rooftop and it was good,they even made us butter and garlic shrimp with risotto which is not on the menu and that was nice. Since I was working from my room for couple of hours in the morning I had to order breakfast to my room- disappointing choices and taste as for 5 star hotel.Another big disappointment for me was waiting for checks at the end of the restaurant,room service or bar visit: it is so annoying, you have to fill out your total add extra tip if you want to, fill out your room number, name and signature. It doesn't matter if you got all iclusive food or drinks or not. I hated to do that many times a day. They explain it as they need to know what's coming out of kitchen, I call that B.S. as every order gets entered into the computer so there is no need to waste so much paper and time. And even just because of that I wouldn't be back . Also a huge disappointment is so many items on the menu that are not included but cost extra and let me tell you it is not cheap. I wish they had like separate menu with drinks and food for people that are willing to pay extra after paying a ton of money for this all inclusive hotel.Just to give you an idea: a coconut , just a regular green coconut costs $15 US dollars, I've paid the most $1 for it in Carribean and Asian countries, here $15 I could not belive it. Since we had $150 credit I wanted to use on Moet champagne as I couldn't use it on anything else and let me tell you,that $40 US dollar champagne is $260 US there( and that's the cheapest out of 3 kinds).Mind blowing. Same with the spa- couples massage is $600 US dollars, I get it in states for 180$. I honestly don't understand those prices, it's Mexico not Dubai for God's sake. So if you are coming here- be praperad to pay much more than even in states for food and extras. If you like the beach and you are spoiled like me with white sand gorgeous beaches right at your doorstep- you will be disappointed. To get to the beach you need to wait for a trolley wich runs about every 15 minutes. Once you get there - it's a small sandy beach area but in the water it's all rocks so you have to be very careful as it's very painful to get into the water. Entertainment- there is NONE. So if you are looking for something fun to do in the evenings without leaving your hotel-look somewhere else. As I was explained this hotel is for relaxing, honestly I travel the world so much and stayed in more and less expensive hotels and I never was so bored. Once a week there is a dj with mediocre music that no one even gets up to dance to. I think relax can be mixed with fun, for example every day there was about 30,40 people on the rooftop,why not to come up with some games? Something like bingo for example,this is huge hit everywhere, it's fun and gives people something to do and gives the opportunity to meet and talk to other people. They do offer hikes and kayaks every morning which my husband did and it was nice,but if you are not physically fit- you won't be able to do it meaning this hotel has nothing fun for you whatsoever!!! Weather- since it's rainy season right now it rained 7 days out of 9. Every morning is hot and sunny and right after about 3 pm expect storm. Overall nice well taken care of grounds with a lot of greenery which will be ruined as more towers are built unfortunately. Tierra Luna- the shopping area next to the hotel was always empty so I can't comment on that as I had no desire to visit those shops,but did ride on the carousel. With that being said- unfortunately I can't give this hotel 5 stars. I was hoping it would exceed my expectations, but it didn't.

Hotel Mousai was exceptional. Our room was stunning and quite large. Huge balcony with hot tub and lots of seating. Everyone that we encountered that worked for the hotel was very nice and seemed very greatful that we were there. Breakfast was incredible at the hotel. The roof top infinity pool and bar is probably the most beautiful Ive ever seen! Music was so nice at pool for relaxing . Miami lounge vibe

"Because why not weekend getaway "

Beautiful hotel. Loved the views, the grounds and the staff. Had a north tower corner ultrasuite. Bed was super comfortable, loved the hammock on the huge terrace. It was great. Our Butler Carlos Ramos was fantastic. Made sure all our needs were met. He would randomly check on us but was done carefully enough not to be intrusive. We picked the all inclusive option. The food was great. Our favorite was Dao. Didnt have a great experience at Hiroshi though... unfortunately. We did a hike up the mountain with Emilio... not for the faint of heart but thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely come back.

"FANTASTIC "

We arrived August 24th for 9 days. This was our third vacation at Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta with our first stay in the South Tower.Humberto, our Butler, assisted us with pre-arrival details. Dinner reservations, preferred pillows, extra closet hangers, extra Perrier in the refrigerator, scheduled housekeeping, scheduled turn down service and round trip airport transportation. All requests were in place on arrival.From landing to check in was 1 hour 45 minutes to Hotel Mousai from the airport. On departure it was 1 hour and 10 minutes from Hotel Mousai to the gate. Hotel Mousai transportation service was seamless on arrival and departure. Very professional with cost of $100. Mercedes van airport pick up and Suburban airport drop off. Suite:Our Ultra Corner Suite South Tower, Suite 7086, was ready at 3:00pm. Our suite was on the 8th floor. Not to high but not to low. The suite was spacious with good views of the mountains and pacific with over 1,000 square feet. The bed, 6 pillows and sheets were very comfortable as well as the room temperature. The bathroom is spacious with double vanities, separate dressing table, numerous mirrors, double closet, separate water closet and nice size waterfall shower.Housekeeping: Great cleaning service with sufficient towels and LOccitane toiletries replenished daily.In Suite Bar Service & Snacks: Great service with refrigerator replenished daily with beer, mineral water, sodas, gatorade, tonic water, Red Bull and snacks - nuts and chocolates. Coffee pods also replenished daily.Restaurants: DAO great! Loved the soft shell crab. Hiroshi dinner is wonderful! Bacados Steakhouse fantastic! 10 ounce tenderloin if you like filet and order rare if you like medium rare. The Terrace and Hiroshi for Breakfast - Great food and views.South Tower & North Tower Rooftop - Great lunch menu with numerous choices and excellent views. Rooftop South and North Tower pools: We loved relaxing daily at both Towers with excellent pool concierge, wait staff and bartenders. South Tower Rooftop has a restroom. However, North Tower restroom is one floor down. The views at the North Tower are fabulous! TierraLuna Gardens: Beautiful lush property with lovely boutiques. 5 minute walk from Hotel Mousai.Hiking/walking: Excellent to hike or walk. We walked an hour daily on the property grounds. Malecon: 20 minutes away, the taxi was $10 from HM and $15 back to HM.Staff: Excellent friendly staff that provide top notch service. EVERYONE is so very nice genuinely nice. I wish I could list every staff members name. Humberto - Great, professional Butler from arrival to departure.Greta - I loved our chats about everything! Your Mom, animals and nutrition advice.Abigail / Abby - I loved chatting about your pets, husband and little one.Ramón: Best wishes on the arrival of your baby. Coronel, Hiroshi Restaurant Supervisor, is very professional and personable. We enjoyed our chats on several evenings. Love your photos.Thank you too to Christian, Claudia, Demetrio, Luis, Ignacio, Mateo and Luis - Restaurant Supervisor. We had the most wonderful vacation and will return! Few cons/areas of improvement:New construction with addition of new towers. This made us sad. It takes away from the natural beauty and landscape of the property.North Tower Rooftop Pool: Insufficient umbrellas for all guests.The lounge cushions are in need of replacement, holes and tears.South Tower:Floor 8 had a mildew smell for 9 days. Not in the suite but in the hall.xoxoGinger & Ed

"Great first time in Puerto Vallarta!"

Wonderful first time in PV at Hotel Mousai. I had been looking at the property for a few years since it was recommended by a friend, and I'm so glad I finally pulled the trigger for my gf's birthday. I had previously only been to Los Cabos many times and had mostly stayed in a private villa so I was a little weary of the whole large hotel all-inclusive experience but it did NOT disappoint in the least. We had the ultra suite in the north tower and got super lucky with the 11th floor and the best views of the bay. The suite did come with a butler but I honestly didn't know what to do with him, haha. I did have him change around our dinner reservations a couple times but that's about it. Spa was gorgeous and we had a couple of nice facials and I really enjoyed the hydrotherapy as everyone had said. Literally the only thing I think I found to be subpar was the hair dryer, hahah. The service was great, facilities were beautiful, pools were wonderful. We had arranged transport to/from the airport through the pre-arrival concierge, which was very convenient. The only other time we left the premises was to go jet skiing, which I arranged myself prior to arrival (Jet Ski Safari-highly recommend!) If we had had more days I would have loved to go explore PV a little more. I loved that they had daily hikes (we went to the waterfall with Emilio which was awesome, but beware..very rocky..I was a little nervous for some of the older people in our group) and kayaking from the hotel, as well as paddleboards available most of the day. We did wish that at least one of the pools was open later in the evening, you basically couldn't swim anywhere past 8pm I think ...the rooftop on south tower is open late but you're not allowed to use the pool itself. We also befriended another couple who was staying at Garza Blanca so they weren't even allowed up there at all...awkward. We ate dinners at NOI, DAO, Hiroshi and Blanca Blue twice, that actually was my favorite, but they were all good. NOI, Hiroshi and DAO didn't blow my mind but were all quite good. Only went to Bocados for breakfast but it was excellent. We really wished they would at least let you take your leftovers back to your room if not take orders 'to go', we got a lot of conflicting answers on this, but no one let us do either one. Overall, excellent, looking forward to coming back!

"Paradise Found!"

We visited Garza Blanca PV in both July and August, so this review is a culmination of both experiences.We have been to GB PV seven times. That should tell you how fantastic this place is. We have also been to GB Cabo. The difference is that GB PV is set in a magical, jungle setting; the property is very unique. Per usual, we received exceptional service from everyone we encountered. Yes, as the guest you should receive excellent treatment because you are paying to receive it. However, you will receive it ten fold, if you return the kindness. We have begun to feel like family at this resort and that is saying a lot. Food - Delicious Spa - FantasticService - SuperbLocation - UnmatchedAreas for Improvement:One of the things that makes this property so special is the Trolley ride. Riding throughout the property with the wind in your hair and the ocean nearby is something special. I will say that in the years we have been coming, the Trolleys have begun to show their age. I think some much needed TLC will restore their glory. Exceptional Staff:I want to take a moment to recognize a few of the people who made both trips fantastic. Although, to be fair, there are more that I don't know the names of.

My experience at the Mousai was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we was greeted with champagne and friendly smiles. The concierge Natalie & butler Carlos are the best! They both went above and beyond to arrange all our dinner and spa arrangements and made sure we had everything during our stay. When I say went beyond, Carlos our butler stopped by Walmart to pick us up a new suitcase on his day off.. since the airport broke ours. He even arranged to have our room decorated for our anniversary. The details in the decorations was so beautiful and detailed we felt pampered during our stay and will definitely be returning..

"Amazing pool experience; a bad apple in the mix"

Just came back from Hotel Mousai for a very nice vacation with my boyfriend - 5 days/4 nights. We were looking for an adults only resort and didn't have plans to do much other than to be at the pool - and we were able to essentially do just that.We got an Ultra Suite in the North Tower and it did not disappoint! Housekeeping did an excellent job of keeping things tidy for us. My only minor gripes is that the toilet is not very private - even if you're in a couple sometimes you just need a little more privacy in my opinion. Every toilet on this property has a bidet and I am here for it.Second to the quality of the room was the quality of the service (with one exception - read below). The staff here are super welcoming, friendly, and HUSTLE. Special shout out to Ricardo, Alan, Eduardo, and the woman pool concierge (whose name starts with a V but I simply could not remember it I'm so sorry!) at the North Rooftop pool, and Rosy and Jennifer at concierge. Alejandro at Hiroshi has the happiest/most positive attitude I've seen in a dining setting in quite some time! Ernesto, our Butler also made sure to check in on us and handle anything we needed.The aforementioned exception - we dined at Bocados on Saturday evening and I unfortunately found a hair underneath my steak, on the 2nd bite (or while I was trying to cut a piece for a second bite). Honestly this didn't bother me but how the kitchen handled it was completely unacceptable. The (head?) chef - a gentleman in a white chef's coat whose name I did not capture - came out with the hair on top of a white napkin and claimed it was my hair. He held the hair up against the light and said "see? it has red coloring and you have reddish hair - do you want us to make another steak for you?"I have never in my life ever seen a chef come out and blame the customer for the mishap with the food. I honestly wouldn't have minded if they simply refired the steak and didn't mention anything. But to tell me it was my fault, and then ask if it was necessary to fire another steak....I said no thank you and immediately got up to leave. We left and filed a complaint with Rosy at concierge (while also asking if the pool staff might have come across a couple of items we accidentally left up there that day). Rosy crushed it - she called the manager over at Garza Blanca and told us he was out but the supervisor on duty would call us soon. She also made sure to check on our lost items and personally delivered them to our room herself. (THANK YOU SO MUCH ROSY!) The supervisor also called us and apologized for the mishap. Since we were on the all-inclusive plan, there wasn't a meal to comp or anything, but my boyfriend did suggest they do something special for me at my spa treatment the following day. I don't know if they did or didn't - I didn't know what to expect for my Sixth Chakra treatment - but either way the spa experience was nice. Does it always come with hot stones as part of the massage? I don't know but I definitely got hot stones - yay!Speaking of - the hydrotherapy is fantastic! Staff were very friendly (thank you Carlos!) and I was the most relaxed even before my treatment began! I was also very relaxed that the following morning my body was like jello (in the best way possible) Well done and thank you Naomi!Our favorite food the whole time was at the rooftop pool (baja shrimp tacos, tuna tartare, tuna sashimi, the coconut shrimp, nachos, jicama tacos), actually, but had a great dinner at Hiroshi. The room service burger is also delicious (but perhaps a bit rich for some), along with the onion rings and tacos arracheras. We ordered the burger after the Bocados mishap, and on our last evening decided we wanted to lounge in the room instead of heading back out for dinner. I would pass on the al pastor pizza (it's too heavy - crust too thick plus too much cheese).The food at Noi was also very good but service was lacking - felt like they were understaffed that evening. We ordered burrata and the baked artichoke as appetizers and asked for a recommendation on a bianca pizza. We were recommended the Cacio e Pepe pizza - which was very tasty but also came with burrata. in retrospect I wish our server had recommended something else as we basically just had so much cheese - felt like he just picked the most popular option rather than think about the progression of our meal. We also ordered the oxtail filled pasta which was also a bit on the heavier side and I felt the pasta was a bit too thick and tough. Instead of trying to get another drink - we decided to head to the rooftop for the Dj evening because the service was rather slow. The couple next to us waited 90 minutes for their food! Breakfast at the Terrace has a lovely view! For variety, the Blanca Blue breakfast buffet works really well! I definitely had my fill of chilaquiles during this trip!The all-inclusive is definitely worth it at Hotel Mousai and we always got a great spot at the pool - it simply was not very crowded at all. The pool itself was amazing, the lounge chairs comfortable, plenty of shade and the staff move the umbrellas around a the sun moves to make sure you always have shade. Truly the best pool service I have ever experienced and since I spent 90% of my non-eating awake hours here, it absolutely made this trip worth it!The activities list is just enough though some more descriptions are probably helpful. The botanical garden tour is at Tierra Luna and is more a description of the botanical work the reserve is trying to do. A worthy effort but simply not was we were expecting for a botanical tour. We tried to kayak but nature decided it wasn't the right day for us - we had the option to go still but Daniel was very transparent about how hard it would be. Everyone else still went forward but my boyfriend and I knew what we were about to get into and decided we would rather not, and that's fine too!The last comment I make is more a personal preference - we took the trolley a few times and I felt somewhat uncomfortable that they have separate pick up/drop offs for guests and staff at some stops. Like - we can all hang out and wait together. I can see some hoity toity guests not wanting to share the stop with the staff but they can grow up please. We spend so much time with hotel staff it seems only reasonable that we get on and off at the same stops and minimize their walking too!Overall a very lovely vacation with the primary highlight being staff and pool time / service at the pool. Thank you all!

"Great experience, deserving of many more visits!"

Wonderful experience! From our concierge Omar to our butlers Felipe and Alejandro who kept reaching out to us to make sure we were enjoying our vacation, to Araceli housekeeper who was very accomodating and did a wonderful job cleaning after our 20 yr old and his friend. This has been an excellent vacation! The beach pool was a little too warm and crowded, but then we tried the panoramic pool, a lot cooler and less crowded. The food was not as good as GB Cancun, except Hiroshi (just as good, thanks to Miguel and Irving for making it extra special!) and Dao which far exceeded our expectations. Well be back again, next time Mountain View!

"Garza Blanca Preserve Resort and Spa Rocks!!!!!!!!"

Garza Blanca Preserve Resort and Spa is an amazing place. I cannot wait to go back. It, along with Hotel Mousai, will be my "go to" spot in Puerto Vallarta. Every staff member provides the best customer service. Their motto is "It is my pleasure to serve you" with a hand over their heart. As a food and wine guy, every dining experience was amazing. The Jr. Panoramic suite in towers 4 and 5 have sweeping ocean vistas...All the restaurants at Hotel Mousai and Garza Blanca were high end with excellent service. One of my favorite spots was the lounge/bar area of Hotel Mousai at the Italian restaurant, NOI. The bartenders were amazing (see my favorite bartender in the pictures below)...service was excellent, the food great and the classically trained piano player in the evening was very special. The staff at breakfast at the Bocados steak house served beautiful food with fantastic customer service. The bartending staff (see below) at the panoramic pool were awesome. Be aware of the sales people, if you don't want to purchase something...I could go on about all the amazing staff. Best ever!!!!!Happy in Paradise.....

"Truly 5 Star Experience and Service"

We just returned from Garza Blanca in June 23 after an amazing 12 days at this property. Let me start by saying the staff here are what make this resort the best in all of Puerto Vallarta hands down. This is also our second time returning to the Garza Blanca after we fell in love with it last summer. And we cant wait to go back! I generally dont post a lot of reviews but thought I should in this case based on the review of the so called Concerned Parent below written on 23-08-03 which I can guarantee is an absolute load of crock. Most would refer to that parent as a Karen but I will refrain. This concerned parent has taken the time to write an awful review about someone at the hotel who goes out of their way to provide exceptional service to all guests. Just read past their review and youll see hundreds of posts about Briset and the amazing care she provides to all the children at the kids club. She is the primary reason we have returned to Garza Blanca and she defines the word Service at that resort. We trust her to watch our children every evening while we dinner and upon picking up our children, we get asked when they can be dropped off again because of the wonderful time they had with Briset. Weve never seen her treat any child there with anything but love and respect and Ive seen all sorts of kids in her club from jacked up on sugar maniacs to shy quiet ones and Briset ensures each and everyone of them have a great time. Concerned Parent is clearly a vengeful person who decided that whatever issue she found against Briset, had to be overblown to the point of possibly affecting a persons career. Thats the definition of a Karen. Anyway, this at review required a counter review as its extremely false and should be disregarded by readers. To point out other great aspects of the hotel and to focus on the positive, here are some of my favourite aspects of Garza Blanca PV:- Constant pool side service. The staff are very hard working running back and forth in extreme heat to make sure all guests have what they need. Cant say enough about how hard each of them work- We tried all of of the restaurants on-site and each were great, offering a lot of options for guests staying as long as we did- Beach area is very clean and service is as attentive there as pool side- Love that there are two pools as we could switch up which ones we wanted to visit through the week and we felt there was different ambience at each with the upper pool being a little quieter - Great location! An Uber into town was very quick so if you want to get some shopping in or dining at one of the amazing downtown restaurants, its not a hassle to do so- Kids club. Ive said it above and I will say it again, this place was a life saver. We were able to enjoy adults only restaurants with full trust our children were safe and enjoying themselves and I heard it every night from the kids that they had the best time- Last but not least, the service from everyone here. Wow. Everyone went out of their way for any request you had. They truly enjoy making the guests feel at home and comfortable and thats not easy to find at hotels. And Ive stayed at hundreds throughout my work and personal travels. Well be back to Garza Blanca next year and I look forward to sharing another review with you all.

"Lobby Bar: Lomeli and Orlando coffee masters"

Lobby Bar at South Tower Moussai: We had a great time as usual at the Moussai but one of our favorite experiences was with Lomeli and Orlando. They were both so patient and accommodating when we tried to figure out how to have creamer like we do in the States. I wanted something like half and half for our coffee and they figured out what products from Mexico that would be the closest to what we wanted. They ended up mixing Crema para Batir with regular milk and it was delicious!! Everyone should try this instead of just milk or evaporated milk. If you like half and half in your coffee or heavy whipping cream then this is what you need. We will miss their smiling faces and delicious lattes in the morning.

"The PERFECT STAY"

The Hotel Mousai was so luxurious and perfect in every way. Starting with EDSON - we had a group of 8, with people coming in at different times, which would normally be a logistical nightmare but booking was so easy - Edson was a DREAM come true and worked so hard to get us what we needed and made it so, so easy. The hotel itself is BEAUTIFUL, new, and luxurious, with an artsy and nature-y feel. Even the floor on the balcony is real wood. The food is delicious and healthy. We were all saying the tuna sashimi at the pools was among the freshest wed ever had. Every single person there went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. This place is truly incredible in every single way and I cant wait to go back!! Thank you Hotel Mousai!!

"Wonderful Honeymoon at Hotel Mousai"

We booked our honeymoon trip to Hotel Garza Blanca Resort and had the incredible good fortune to be upgraded to Hotel Mousai, part of the same resort complex. While we were initially concerned about being moved into a different hotel further from the beach, it was so worth it and Natali at the main desk made sure everything worked for us before we checked in. We could still access everything at Garza Blanca, but also could access additional pools, restaurants, bars, and views (all without kids in those spaces)! It had the perfect vibe for our vacation, so we can definitely recommend staying here.Our concierge, Nathaly, did a great job and was very personable. She helped us book meals at all the available dining options as well as scheduled activities (e.g. kayaking, tequila tasting). We had some al pastor at the on-site tequila tasting that was probably the best food we had the whole trip! 24-hour room service was perfect for when we wanted to relax. The spa was also very impressive and we had great massages there. Getting out into the ocean was a priority for me, so I was really excited that the snorkeling even just right off of the resort beach was so good (lots of biodiversity and numbers).While I would say that the staff across the board was very welcoming and helpful, I wanted to call out some specific folks that were particularly good: Nathaly, our concierge; Daniel, from Dinning and the tequila tasting; Diego, from Kayaking/Snorkeling; Alan, from the Rooftop Pool/Bar.

"Exceeding Expectations: A Luxurious Getaway at Garza Blanca!"

"What an absolutely delightful vacation for our family! Prior to departing, we conducted the usual pre-vacation research, and Garza Blanca seemed like a promising choice, but let me tell you, it surpassed all our expectations. The resort is nestled into the breathtaking Mexico Rain Forest, offering incredible views that left us in awe.Let's start with the rooms: they were the epitome of luxury. Immaculate cleanliness and thoughtful turn-down services made our time in the room truly pleasurable. The picturesque views from every angle were just fantastic. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the family's favorite was the balcony hot tub. The nightly treats added a fun surprise element to our stay.The Pool experience was exceptional as well. We found the upper pool to be our go-to spot. The staff there was incredibly attentive and helpful, making our poolside relaxation even more enjoyable. While we did explore the other pools, we couldn't resist the inviting atmosphere and scenic vistas offered by the upper pool.Now, let's talk about the Food, an aspect where Garza Blanca truly stands out. The quality and taste of the cuisine exceeded all our expectations. The Steak House became our family favorite, and we relished the flavorful dry-aged and regular steaks. A personal highlight for me was the crustacean bisque at the Blue restaurant, which has become my new all-time favorite dish. The creative and delicious cocktails, along with the all-inclusive option, provided us with the delightful experience of savoring this tantalizing goodness.Last but not least, we feel it is essential to acknowledge and commend the outstanding staff at Garza Blanca. Every single person we encountered displayed a friendly and helpful demeanor, clearly taking pride in delivering top-notch customer service.Victor, the bellman, was not only kind but also very knowledgeable about the area, serving as a valuable resource throughout our stay.Roberto, the bartender at the upper bar, was an absolute delight and made each day filled with joy. His cocktail-making skills were impressive.Janko, the staff member at the steakhouse, was undoubtedly our favorite employee. His playful and knowledgeable nature made every interaction a memorable one, and he went above and beyond to make us feel special. Janko provided true 5-star service every day, leaving a lasting impression on our hearts.Additionally, we want to recognize Fiovani, Arturo, Alan, Noemi, Ericka, Leslie, Andres, and Javier, who all contributed to making our vacation an unforgettable experience.In conclusion, we are hooked on Garza Blanca and already planning our return. We are immensely grateful to the entire staff who played a pivotal role in making our trip so memorable. The exceptional service, combined with the picturesque location and delectable cuisine, truly made it an unparalleled vacation experience. We can't wait to be back!"

"Amazing, Unique Place. Great food, great stay"

We just returned from the most amazing vacation at Garza Blanca in July 2023. We booked a 3 bedroom suite with another family. So it was 4 adults and 4 kids under 10. We were up in the towers on the hillside which provided just incredible views of the ocean for our entire trip. The property itself is quite large and on a mountain so if you are staying up in the towers you can take a trolley around the property, and the kids loved that part of it and we never had to wait too long.There was a totally sufficient pool up by our tower, but the main pool and beach area are down by the ocean area. Once you get there, they take excellent care of you. they set up your towels and chairs and immediately are there for food/drink orders.We did all inclusive and it was excellent. The food here is easily the best food I've had at an all-inclusive. there's no buffet, it's all very nice restaurants. Definitely make dinner reservations in advance of your trip. There are a couple restaurants at the adults only towers that you can also go to even if you aren't staying there, but again they are adults only. We would do room service breakfast, lunch by the pool/ocean and then dinner at the restaurants.Huge shout out to Brizette and Yazmin at the kid's club, they were so sweet with our kids. The kids club was awesome and they have lots of fun activities. For a small charge, they can watch kids during dinner at night and they even take the kids to dinner and to ride the carousel.Big thanks to the check in staff, they upgraded our room as well, which was much appreciated. Blanca and Ofelia kept our room looking amazing all trip. The staff at GB was extremely accommodating and professional. We will definitely be back, but I might pick a cooler part of the year, it's very hot and humid in the summer, but for a beach/pool vacation with kids that's kind of what we wanted. Thank you Garza Blanca for a great trip!!!

"Mousai Puerto Vallarta is my heaven!"

Mousai has ruined me for any other resort experience. I did not understand what a 5 Diamond resort was until our trip to Mousai in Puerto Vallarta. The location is GORGEOUS, however, the best thing was the service. Each and every person we encountered was truly thrilled to make sure we had the best possible experience. The amazing service began immediately after making our reservation. Our concierge contacted us ahead of our stay to make sure they were prepared for us. Ricardo was there to greet us when our car arrived and escorted us to our beautiful suite and made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. Evelyn and Paulina checked on us regularly, made our reservations for us, and were overall an incredible resource. Every host, server, and bartender treated us like family. The team we spent the most time with was at the North Tower rooftop infinity pool bar. Breathtaking views and incredible service. There is no reason to leave the resort or go anywhere else. I will be going to Mousai as often as I can. Don't miss out!

A huge shoutout to Christian and Osvaldo. They were the Bellboys and they were always so welcoming, so helpful, and they always had great tips for us at the hotel. Also our Concierge Rocio was extremely attentive and so helpful. Ricardo from Bocados was a great waiter also. So grateful for the staff who made us feel welcome! There were many more!

He help with excursions, restaurant choices, nightlife activities and so much more. He literally made our vacation! Cant leave out the rooftop staff Guillermo and Alan!

"Hotel Mousai ruined my life"

Ok, the title of my review may sound dramatic but it is so true. I cant stay at any other hotel/resort now, because nothing compares to Mousai. So what makes Mousai so special?1. The staff. All of the staff go out of their way to make this the best trip of your life. A special shout out to the guys at the pool, Carlos, Diego and Alan. You will never have an empty cup. 2. The food. When you see an all inclusive option you may worry it will be subpar food. However, everything we ate was delicious. We are from California and know food sushi/seafood and we were blown away by how good the sushi and seafood was. 3. The pool. Adults only. The view. You could spend the entire trip lounging at the pool and come away happy. 4. The activities. We did the kayak trip and it was wonderful. You really should know how to kayak to do it though, it is not for people who have never been on a kayak before. Its been a year since we went and we still talk about Mousai every week. Mainly we talk about when can we go back again? We have traveled to places all around the world and Mousai is at the top of our list of places we MUST go back to. Mousai sets a high bar, weve not found any other place that even comes close

"Breathtaking... BEST All Inclusive ever!!!"

Let me just say that I have been wanting to spend a vacation at Hotel Mousai for years!! From the very first day I saw an ad for it, I have wanted to go there. Finally, I was able to make it a reality. Leading up to our vacation, I was a little anxious about how our experience would go at Hotel Mousai. Not because of any bad reviews... the reviews are amazing, as anyone can see. On the contrary, I was worried that I might set my expectations too high, only to be let down later. As it turns out, I had nothing to fear at all. Hotel Mousai was, by far, the very best all inclusive resort I have ever been to. Including this most recent trip, I have now been to six all inclusive resorts all over Mexico, and this one is hands down the best of them all. There is not much to say in this review that has not already been said by countless other guests. So I will simply reinforce two fabulous characteristics of the hotel that have ensured we will return... service and cuisine!!Service at the hotel is flawless, especially at the rooftop pool and bar. From the moment you step off the elevator on the rooftop level, you are escorted by a staff member to your personal loungers where towels are placed. Moments later, your dedicated waiter takes your drink order and continues to check on you periodically for the remainder of your time up there. Food, drinks, you name it... you will be taken care of. Most resorts offer poolside service, but it's different at Mousai. The attention to detail is there, and you are truly made to feel "special", as if you are the only ones at the hotel. This level of service carries over to the rest of the hotel as well... lobby, restaurants, room service, etc. As for the food, absolutely the best food I have ever had at an all inclusive resort.... THE BEST!!! Far too often, meals are hit or miss at the all inclusive restaurants, but not at Hotel Mousai. Every meal we had was delicious. Food quality is terrific, and the presentation is fantastic. We ate at all of the restaurants.... Bocados Steakhouse, Noi Italian, Dao Chinese, and Hiroshi Japanese. It was truly hard to decide which meal was the best. If I had to pick one, I would personally say Dao was the winner!! So many options to choose from, and just so freaking tasty overall. We ate there twice!!Thank you Hotel Mousai for an absolutely amazing vacation. We will be back!!!

"The perfect vacation does exist "

Had the best time at Garza Blanca Would like to take a minute to thank a couple of the wonderful staff at the resort. Tony for treating us like royalty by the pool every single day of our stay. Also a big thanks to Emilio for instructing a great yoga/stretch class Emilio made everyone feel welcome, calm, relaxed, and even made us laugh at times with his great sense of humor. Also Yesika and her partner in housekeeping kept our room spotless and welcoming even gifted my kiddo a small octopus plushy to keep her other plushy company. Also a big thanks to Gloria for her warm welcome she got us checked in quickly and efficiently and kept us updated with member perks. Lastly would like to thank Felipe with concierge, he checked in on us daily, helping us make dinner reservations and making sure all our needs were met during our stay at Garza Blanca. Every time we come back he remembers me by name and he shows genuine love for his job and for the members of Garza Blanca. All in all the entire Garza Blanca staff is fantastic. Their service and character is unmatched. The food and amenities are top notch. I cant wait to be back next summer! And every summer that follows.

You will not go wrong with booking a stay at this incredible establishment! From the moment you walk in, youre made to feel special! Everyone from the bell boys to wait staff to the property management are simply the best!We obviously spent the majority of our time at the South Tower Rooftop pool and the staff is top notch! Greta took care of our every needs when it came to getting our poolside beds squared away and she would stop by every so often and adjust the shade based on how the sun was hitting you! Who could ask for more?The wait staff at the rooftop pool was some of the best weve seen! Jorge was outstanding making sure our drinks were always topped off! I cant forget to mention Luis (Supervisor) and Marcelino, Angel, Gerardo and Edgar! Everyone of those gentlemen set the bar with the service they provided us during our week there!

Our guide guy Sergio was amazing! We went hiking on the mountain and he was a great leader to the group. Even when it did rain the night before the two hours hiking was incredible! We recommend Sergio 100%

"Amazing service, great food and drinks, all-inclusive is a MUST"

Hotel Mousai is great. We came for our baby moon and had an amazing time. The service, food, cocktails, and views are all first rate.I would recommend staying in the North Tower, it is slightly older but still incredibly nice with much better views. We ate at DAO, Hiroshi, and Bocados but did not get to Noi. They were all solid but the sushi at Hiroshi was not great. Dao was our favorite, the banana egg roll dessert was incredible. We had breakfast at Garza Blanca one day and in the north tower lobby a second day. The north tower lobby breakfast was incredible. We also did a light breakfast via room service each day, which we loved. They have amazing non-alcoholic cocktails, but I would recommend ordering an extra shot with your normal cocktails to add a little more kick.

"Fun in Mexico!"

This was our second trip to Garza Blanca-PV. This place is amazing. Our room was clean, but the only concern was the huge cockroaches on the patio that come out at night. The front door needs to be sealed better. Also, the pool between towers 4 and 5 was filthy. I would suggest getting pool vacuums to suck out food and paper towels that somehow are ending up in the pool. They wanted to sell me a membership and I told them I was not interested and that was it. You just have to be direct so you can enjoy your vacation. All of the staff are awesome, especially at Blanca Blue and Bocados. A lot of the staff remembered us from the previous visit and went out their way to make us feel special. Last, they picked us like royalty, rolling in clean SUV....they sent us back in a bucket. LOL.LOL.LOL. Will get that straight next time. LOL. I highly recommend a vacation stay at GBPV. We will always have wonderful memories. Chris Bell

"4th Trip Done and Cant Wait for the 5th"

We had an amazing experience at Hotel Mousai! It was my fourth time staying here and my boyfriends first time! PROS: The food is always so good. Hiroshi (the sushi spot) and Dai (the chinese spot) were the best. We also tried the new steakhouse called Karuma. It was worth checking out even though its not included in the all-inclusive! Just a bit pricey. The vibes and shops were cool and the food was really good. Leo and Eric were great waiters and really friendly. The South tower lobby was really cool. We loved the bar - Lomeli was great and became our friend by the end of our trip. Oscar also made good drinks! The private beach was the highlight of our trip. Rodrigo and Javier were very welcoming and always willing to help with our towels and anything we needed. * Housekeeping was very good. Lilian always cleaned our room and left it spotless. CONS: The check-in process was not up to par with what it should have been - especially given that I explained it was my 4th visit. We explained to Gustavo that we didnt like the view from our room. He seemed disinterested and blamed his inability to switch our room to the hotel being full. He said he would try to switch our room the next day, but never called us back. Didnt try to make up for it in any other way like sending a bottle of champagne or chocolates or a spa service. Being a 5 star diamond resort, I recommend that the hotel improves the check-in process and provides a better experience to its guests. - Lily (Gabriela)

"Best All-Inclusive Weve Ever Visited"

Our trip to Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta was one of the best resort experiences we have had. Highlights:*The food was insanely good. With the exception of our meal at Bocados, we felt like the food was truly exceptional. Our favorite was Dao - Luis and Jose were amazingly helpful and the food was perfection. Plus, even if it isnt marked on the menu, the kitchen can make almost everything gluten free. *The drinks were great - super unique and tasty.*Our kids loved the kids club. We had plans to take them once so we could have a date night. They begged to go back and we ended up with 3 date nights. Brizzet was the sweetest and the boys are still talking about how much they loved her. *The pools were clean and the perfect temperature. *The rooms were not humid at all and were very clean. Cons:*Housekeeping was inconsistent. We rarely had enough towels or floor mats or hand towels. We were always missing something. Everything was clean but I would have expected a bit better for this caliber of resort. *The breakfast buffet didnt have allergens listed. It would have made my experience a lot better if it had been. Overall, it was an exceptional experience- especially for two people who are foodies and usually hate all-inclusives. We are already planning our next trip!

"Amazing!"

This was my first experience in an all inclusive resort! We went for a girls trip and lets just say it was amazing! Everything you could possibly need is on the property! The service was great. We stayed in the South Tower and had beautiful views of the ocean and the lush mountains. We had great service upon our arrival with representatives meeting us at the hotel. We were greeted by Gustavo and he made sure all of our things were taken good care of why we sat back and relaxed. We enjoyed the restaurants and the staff and their professionalism. The Roof Top bar was one of our regular hangouts. We loved how Greta was so great making sure we were cknftoabke with towels and shade. Jennifer was also very professional making sure things were good for us. Ulises was on top of our drinks! As one was getting empty he would have another one all ready to hand to you! He was also very knowledgeable about the area and places to go see. They work so hard. Each night you can have Turn Down service where they bring you water and cookies! The gentlemen who would refill our bar each evening were very aware and accommodating. If you are looking to get spoiled this is an awesome place to start!!

"Do not hesitate - Mousai is paradise!"

Like so many others, we had the most spectacular and perfect trip at Hotel Mousai. We were in Puerto Vallarta to get married on the beach (offsite), and we did a lot of research before selecting Mousai for this most special vacation. We could not have picked a more perfect place, or asked for a more perfect trip!We booked an ultra corner suite in the north tower. While there were many elements that added to the amazingness of our trip, at the very top of the list was our butler, Carlos Ramos. We truly cannot speak more highly of Carlos. He was so helpful, genuine, and kind. We felt a bit odd about having a "butler" and feeling "needy," but Carlos made us feel like he TRULY enjoyed helping us, and just made us feel so comfortable and welcomed. He never made us feel like a burden or like we were asking too much. He would even check on us at the rooftop pool each day! He answered our texts in under a minute (even when he was done for the day!), he came to our rescue when we misplaced our room key at the pool, and he helped us out in about 100 other big and small ways throughout our trip.The north rooftop pool is everything everyone says it is, and everything you see in the photos, and more! It is truly paradise. It was never too crowded (we were there in late May/early June) and the service was impeccable. We loved being greeted by Yessenia (the pool concierge each day) and how helpful she was in getting us set up. All the servers were fantastic, but Eduardo and Guillermo really helped to make our trip. It's incredible how they can anticipate what you may need even before you do! You'll truly never want for anything! We only ate at Noi, Hiroshi and the Terrace. We ended up eating a lot at rooftop north (everything was delicious!) and through room service, which was much higher quality than we were expecting, and just so convenient. We tried to book our reservations later than we should have which made the available times quite limited. I highly recommend booking your dinner reservations as early as you can. I read this advice in other reviews, but neglected to take it which is my only regret.Hiroshi was definitely our favorite! We ordered a few of the "extra charge" items (outside the all inclusive) and they were all well worth it. Everything we ate and drank was delicious, and our server, Diego Silva (along with Ruben) were just spectacular! They were our favorite servers of the trip and it was really easy to understand why they're mentioned on here so often!The ultra corner suite was just fantastic. To have views out all three sides was incomparable. We originally booked the penthouse, but switched to the ultra corner prior to our arrival when we realized how small the balcony/outdoor space is in the penthouse. We were not disappointed! The wraparound balcony is truly breathtaking. We could see the gorgeous blue water out windows on two sides, and those were the views we woke up to every morning. Incredible!We found the all inclusive package well worth it, and found the quality to be MUCH better than what we've ever experienced at an all-inclusive. Our past experience has been that you trade a bit of quality for an all-inclusive option, but that was not the case at all at Mousai.If you're reading reviews to pick a place in Puerto Vallarta, I promise you can stop now. You've found it in Mousai. If you're reading these to get excited for a trip you've already booked, no words will truly convey the magic you will experience at Hotel Mousai. It's everything you're reading here, and better! If you have an ultra room, please do yourself a favor and request Carlos. I have no doubt he'll make your trip just like he made ours! We will definitely be back!

"Beautiful Resort with Exceptional Service"

The resort is absolutely beautiful. There were many activities to choose from throughout the week, including yoga, hiking, cerviche classes, paddle boards, and more! The service is top notch and they really anticipate your needs. If you have the option, stay in the garden side for breathtaking views of the beach and gardens. The only downfall is many stairs down to the beach or waiting for the trolley, but it was completely worth the trade in my opinion. The walking trails down to the beach are through the beautiful gardens.We choose to do the all-inclusive plan for the week so we didn't have to worry. The restaurants are full of delicious food with plenty of options to choose from. While all of the restaurants were delicious, DAO was our personal favorite! Somehow the service there goes above and beyond the others (which is a tall task considering you are treated so well everywhere).We wanted to take the time to give a shout-out to a few people who went above and beyond during our time there.Roberto and Zuno from the butler team were so personable and easy to talk to. They helped us with several different tasks throughout the week and always did it with a smile.Tony and Oscar from the poolside waiters. Oscar kept the palomas coming before my husband even had time to ask! Tony was so attentive and always had a smile on his face. It was so hot the week we were there and these two never once complained.Marcus and Mike taught the cerviche class and made the whole class entertaining--not to mention the delicious salsa and cerviche they made! Alberto Frias and Angel at DAO were both amazing servers. Angel noticed I looked cold and provided a shaw without me even asking or thinking to even ask! Alberto served us an amazing meal and ensured everything was to our perfection.I truly could go on and on. We had a wonderful week! It felt like everyone tried to get to know us and ensure we were ad everything and more that we needed. We highly recommend this resort.

"Exceptional Service"

We stayed at the Garza Blanca building #5 we used the pool next to our room most of the time . Roman Rosas and Ponciano were are pool waiters for the 5 days we were here . They both were the most friendly ,helpful hard working waiters we could have ever asked for . They both were so attentive to us every day . They seemed to always know when we wanted something to eat or they knew we were ready for another drink. Having this kind of service makes us want to come back I hope the Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta knows that they have some amazing employees working for them . We cant wait for our next visit soon .

"5 star for Kids Club ; 1 star for Reception"

The 5 star rating is only for Kids Club. Our younger kids (5 and 6) had the best time with Ms. Brizzet and Ms. Berenice during our stay. The most important thing for us was their safety and well-being and they were taken care of so well the first day that we dropped them off multiple times. They got to go on small hiking trails, swam in the new lagoon like pool and rode the carousel many times. Ms. Brizzet and Ms. Berenice were truly the most kind and thoughtful towards our children and they were both a highlight for our (what would have been a pretty terrible experience) stay.This is my second visit to GBPV and I loved it so much the first time I brought my family with me. Unfortunately the customer service at front desk was less to be desired. A 1 star rating would be given for the lead manager/supervisor in reception. We had a distasteful and almost 'vacation-ruining' experience with front desk after our master suite had leaked paint fumes (very strong acetone like nail salon) coming through our ventilation because of a planned construction for what they called "The Perfect Room" on the 12th floor (we were 11th floor). Of the 5 nights we stayed, we were unable to use our master suite (also where kids took their baths) and ended up sleeping with our kids for two nights (until they could offer another two bedroom suite that offered the same view). The very first afternoon, our wonderful housekeeper, Marisol, smelled the paint fumes herself and immediately called front desk to troubleshoot (after we already had called to report a few hours before). That late evening, a maintenance member came and was unable to do much except to confirm the 'acetone' smell in our room. Front desk, Iris, did her best to try and find us a new room the next day and ask for construction to stop but she was unsuccessful. The predicament required us to stop what we were doing (which was to relax, spend time as a family) and instead continuously follow-up with front desk on a resolution and eventually ask for some kind of compensation for the inconvenience caused. The acetone smell only left the suite if we closed the door to the main room and left all sliding doors wide open and turned off the a/c. It was a horrible ordeal for a vacation that we had been so looking forward to.A friendly couple in the room next to us also complained about the terrible construction above us (the sound is like drilling and banging right above your head). And was told that nothing could be done and "no one else was complaining in the same building". They also had a very very hard time getting someone to speak with them in person about this complaint and had to wait (just like us) in the front lobby for the supervisor/manager to come out from the back.All in all, we lost time with our kids because of the constant in room phone calls, walking up and down the resort to front desk to resolve and get a SINGLE APOLOGY. It was really just the craziest thing to NOT get an acknowledgement of the severity of the situation (Intense construction above with toxic fumes SEEPING into our room). And how much we, as guests, had to fight for some kind of compensation that equated to our loss in use of the master room and the vacation time we used to pack and move our belongings to a new room (I missed an entire morning at the beach with our unplanned evacuation from 10am-1pm -- you'd think throwing everything into a garbage bag would work for three adults and two kids; well the bell boy wouldn't likely enjoy that either; we still ended up forgetting some items in the VERY darkly painted closets). I didn't intend to plan and pay for a vacation where I would not get the option to spend time with my family.I really wish I could look back and think happily about our time as a family at Garza Blanca (first overseas trip) but this experience with front desk and the supervisor (Adrianna) was just so awful that I can't do much but try and block out the stress it caused us. When friends asked about our trip I had to be honest and ask that they look elsewhere or be careful when booking GBPV.Here's a kicker: the afternoon we left the room, they gave our paint fume suite to a new guest. We met him the in the elevator going up to the 11th floor. And guess what, they didn't warn him about the paint fumes or construction.One thing we didn't get was COVID. But I'm pretty sure the dry cough my husband developed there (and still battling) with was due to the fumes he inhaled.

"Garza Blanca Vacation"

Its always a challenge that a resort meets the expectations you have or that it truly looks like what you saw on pictures. Garza Blanca did! Its well deserve of the 5 diamond rating. The place is just beautiful! One side you have the jungle, Mountain View and on the other the gorgeous beach. Traveling with my family of 5 I had to book the 2 bedroom suite. The suite was just marvelous, big, spacious and super comfortable. Surpass my expectations. It was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. Including full washer and dryer, which with kids its a huge plus. We where assigned a first floor suite, as beautiful as it was the view was of a beautiful greenery. However its not the view I wanted. I wanted the panoramic ocean views. I spoke to my concierge Pablo about my disappointment and he right away walked me to the front desk to try and request a change of room. Front desk was very helpful and arranged for a change of room by the next morning. The wait was so worth it, we had a 6 floor suite with the amazing panoramic ocean views that I had seen on videos and pictures. The pools are amazing and one of the most cleaned I have ever seen. The staff is just beyond helpful and attentive and just extremely friendly. The food was delicious and not one restaurant disappoint. The pool food was great as well, along with the drinks. I would for sure without thinking twice would go back. Im also excited to check out their other resorts around Mexico.

"Do yourself a favor and book it !"

First off hotel was great prior to getting to the location setting up car service was easy no hassle like others. Once we got to the hotel check in was a breeze (no sale gimmicks ) we waited maybe 30 minutes for our rooms to be ready , but while we waited they directed us towards the rooftop pool for some lunch and drinks. The north pool rooftop was amazing staff was attentive , recommendations on food and drink were perfect! Over the next 4 days every time we got to the pool , we were taken care of by each and every member of the staff yesenia has such a great welcoming attitude she always found us a great spot to lounge at. Service was 10/10 at the pool thank you Alan/Mateo/Guillermo/nacho/Antonio/Eduardo/zubeirq such an amazing staff !! The restaurants were all great quality , the terrace was such a gorgeous spot for breakfast (luiz) thank you for everything ! And huge thank you to TONY(bellman at front of north tower) from the moment we checked in he helped us , he set up transport for us to town recommendations , and just a great guy that was so welcoming . Room service was great we had an issue with our hot tub and they immediately came and fixed it. The beds are sóo comfortable pillows are perfect and the views from the north tower amazing! Hotel mousai has such a boutique feel to it we never felt that it was over crowded at all. And being able to check out the beach at their sister property via trolly that comes every 10-15 min was great too !

"Botany Garden Tour"

The Botanical Garden Tour on the property was fantastic! Estphania was extremely knowledgeable in her presentation and was able to very intelligently expound on any questions asked. She has piqued my curiosity to learn more with connections she was able to make to other plants I am aware of around the world (papyri plant to Egyptian papyrus, orchids and vanilla, oleanders in CA, great discussion on lack of knowing the origin of the coconut, other edible plant life, and much more) even though my formal degree has nothing to do with botany. I came away with an appreciation for what is being done at Garza Blanca to maintain the ecosystem.. Tito, her partner for English translation, understood the subject matter well and had a good knowledge of the botany on the property. It was well worth my time to do that tour. I recommend it!

This is our third time at this stunning resort. The rooms are magnificent. The resort is sprawling and exceeds all of our expectations every time. Pictures DO NOT do it justice. The room service is spectacular. Jessica Flores provided amazing daily cleaning for the room, including restocking enough water bottles for a family of five in the son, and a second visit later in the evening with fun turn down perks. She left awesome signs of a personal touch throughout the room every day. We didnt do any dishes. Room service plates were always picked up for us promptly. Clean and comfortable sheets and a super comfortable mattress.

"Ill be back!"

Eat your heart out Punta Mita! Hotel Mousai has served as the first and only Five Diamond-rated hotel in Puerto Vallarta and throughout the entire state of Jalisco and it shows! 5-star service! 5-star creative food choices at multiple different themed restaurants! 5-star roof top infinity pool(s)! 5-star views! But you already knew that if you did some homework. Heres somethings that pleasantly surprised me:(1) Toto wishy/washy toilet!(2) Easy 1-touch button controls for drapes and piped in music!(3) Balcony jacuzzi has temperature you control Here are things that bummed me out:(1) Limited beach does have soft white sand BUT the water access is very rocky (actually knew that from reading reviews so that was okay). (2) Room door to hallway needs better sound insulation. (3) Old fashion drink had Maraschino cherry instead of Luxardo (OMG are you picky-LOL)Difference between North & South Tower? North with better unobstructed views, smaller lobby & rooftop closes at 7pm. South with more active larger lobby & rooftop closes at 1am (tho the pool closes at 7pm). Honestly you wont go wrong in either building and you can access each building with a 60 second walk!Ill be back!

Everything was fine except for the property purchase explanation just a waste of 4hrs and seemed like taking no for an answer really wasnt taught. Put a sour taste in my mouth and wont be returning.

"Amazing trip"

First off, hotel mousai/garza blanca in cqllarta was too notch service, food and hospitality. They definitely know how to cater to their guests. All restaurants were amazing and service on last night by diego silva and alejandra was superb at Hiroshi JapeneseRestaurant. Hotel mousai rooms were better than advertised. Highly recommend either property for a stay when in vallarta.

"Final Night Dinner on the Beach"

It was our last night at Garza Blanca and we wanted to have one final special dinner. on Monday, we had an amazing experience at the Aquazul restaurant on the beach and wanted to do that one more time. Unfortunately, that restaurant is not open on Saturday. Luckily, Fabian was on duty. I told him about how it was our last night together (for a wedding) and the family would love to have one more dinner at the beach. Fabian talked to the staff and they kept the kitchen for the pool open an extra hour and they put together an amazing traditional meal for us of tacos and taquitos, with lots of tequila and margaritas for all. It was a group of 13, so this was no small feat. It was an amazing evening with Fabian and Juan and we will never forget it.

"10000% recommend, it was a perfect stay"

Our experience was incredible. The room, the staff, the cleanliness, the food. Cant say enough good things about this place. We did several excursions including the hike with Sergio (who was absolutely incredible), kayaking, walking around downtown PVR, and an ATV tour with Estigo Tours which I highly recommend. This was the best food at an all inclusive Ive ever had. The pools were awesome and the cleaners did such a good job every single day. Our room stayed spotless. I would stay here again 1000%

"Paradise"

By far the best resort in the area. 10 years ago we switched to this resort after seeing everything this place has to offer, and we only stay here when we visit now. There are million reasons why between the breath taking views, the garden like tropical paradise, the delicious food, incredible experiences, and most of all the amazing staff! We don't often vacation in Mexico, but when we do, we vacation here. Ask for Alex at the pool, and for Venesa at the concierge. They take amazing care of you, and they treat you like a very dear friend or very close family. My entire family loved this vacation and we can't wait to come back.

"Great Activities & Staff"

An awesome resort with a perfect balance of options for pure relaxation and more physical activities. The staff is also great and are a pleasure to interact with. Throughout the week, I specifically took part is a ceviche making class, an advanced hike, and a kayaking and snorkeling daytrip to give an idea of the activities they offer. It already would've been an awesome experience but two staff members in particular (Sergio & Marcus) were great about being extremely personable and I enjoyed getting to know them and learning about the area over the course of the hike and ceviche class where I mainly interacted with them. The staff and activity leads are definitely what will separate this resort from others in my memory looking back on it.

Great resort. Saw 3 weddings. Drinks at pool were great and priced right. We didn't do all inclusive, so went off property a few times for meals. Restaurants onsite were a bit expensive. Public bus was easy to use. Beach onsite is very rocky so bring water shoes. Staff is great and friendly.

"For the Gardener in You"

We have been to this resort many times and are now on a twice-yearly "schedule". The staff there always welcomes us "home" and, indeed, it has become our second home. On this visit we experienced something new: a tour of the on-site botanical garden. The tour was conducted by horticulturalist Estefania through translator Tito, the man of many talents. Estefania showed us a good variety of plants native to Mexico and was very patient in answering questions about their seeds, fruits and which animals utilized them. We recommend this tour and enjoyed the special fruit/tea drinks provided halfway through. Be sure to bring a hat, water and sunscreen!

"is this heaven?"

My wife and I recently got back from celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary at Hotel Mousai. I will be honest, I didn't know what to expect as I simply bought the trip strictly based on review research and pictures. Friends and family were worried about traveling to Mexico, but I felt more safe then at home here in California. The hotel and property is absolutely immaculate, it's almost like you're in another world. The rooftop pool is where we spent most of our time as the views are breathtaking and the drinks were sublime. The food isn't Michelin star level, but darn near close. We especially enjoyed the fresh tuna and octopus appetizers and entrees. The suite we stayed in was the nicest hotel room I've ever stepped foot in. The beds are extremely comfortable and I wanted to steal the pillows; I slept like a baby every night. The entire suite is controlled off an iPad all lights are dimmable so you can set the mood and black out the room from bed. The deck/patio has a jacuzzi spa and hammock and insane sunset views. Room service is prompt although I'd suggest getting up in the morning and stumbling down to Garza Blanca for breakfast and Bloody Mary's or mimosas! Our favorite dinners were had at the steakhouse and the sushi joint. Lastly the customer service we received on our five night six day trip reminded me of how it should be. Everyone is energetic and excited to help you for whatever the ask may be. In summary I would recommend this slice of heaven to any and everyone from around the globe, but especially from California. It's like a breath of fresh air. If I could live at Hotel Mousai I would and never look back!

"Third time is a charm"

In response to the 1-star review from May; we were staying at Hotel Mousai at the same time. The "construction" was renovations happening on one of the adjacent condo towers. My wife and I hardly noticed it while relaxing on our balcony. This is our third visit and somehow the experience gets better each time. The staff was recognizing us and greeting us by name on day one! Hiroshi, Dao and Noi are excellent restaraunts. Special shout out to Jerry at Noi, Edgar at the Terrace and our butler, Ernesto for their excellent service. I recommend Ultra Mousai suite with all inclusive; book your ground transportation thru the hotel. Add gratuity to each meal even if you have all inclusive. Enjoy yourself. We have fallen in love with this resort and will be back again next year. My only complaint is that we have ever have to leave.

"Amazing family vacation"

This was a family trip to remember. Three family from the UK including our 86 year old mother and two of us from California made the trip to Garza Blanca.From being greeted in the spectacular reception area to having our luggage picked up when we left everything was perfect.We had visited GB before from California but not since the second Mousai has been finished. They have two new restaurants, Dao and Noi which added to our enjoyment. All the facilities are great but what makes GB special are the staff. Irving in Hiroshis restaurant who welcomed us made us very comfortable and kept the amazing food coming. Emelio on the beach who made sure we always had clean towelsGloria at reception, Jose and the entire butler team who looked after our every need.Gonzaldo and Alvaro who made sure we never went hungry or thirsty while on the beach or around the pool.Also the invisible cleaning staff are just amazing, our room was so clean, smelt great, fresh towels, treats and turn down service. We met the lovely Diana who was part of this team who were such a part of our lovely stay.These are just a few names among many but special thanks to all the staff for making our stay memorable.

We have traveled all over the world and have stayed in many luxury hotels and Mousai is simply the best. On our recent trip we stayed in the South tower in an Ultra Coner suite. The views, rooftop pool, beach, food and most importantly the resort staff were simply amazing. Our butler Ernesto most certainly was the person that made our stay the best. Ernesto is very caring and dedicated to making our trip the best. Highly recommend the all-inclusive option as the restaurants are amazing.

My wife and I had the best time at this resort. Our Concierge Carol was very helpful and very nice! All the Butlers, Roberto, Jose, Alejandro and Zuno were always making sure our itinerary was correct and if we needed to rearrange a reservation, they always made it possible.At the pool, we had the pleasure to meet Juan and Rogelio! Even when Juan was at a different section around the pool, he would constantly let us know about the different activities that were happening. I let him know I wanted to surprise my wife with a special dinner at the beach and when we arrived I was more surprised than she was. There was a heart on the sand and the table with her favorite wine and candlelight. The food was delicious and the servers, Ramon, Tony, Fabian and Alvaro made the evening extra special singing to her Happy Birthday! Like I mentioned, Rogelio at the pool was very attentive and remembered the drinks we liked from previous days. We know we have choices when it comes to resorts, but honestly, its because of people like them who treat us like family, that we decide to come back year after year.

Words cannot express how amazing this resort is. We have travelled to many places and stayed at several "all inclusive" resorts, but Hotel Mousai is hands down the best. From the minute we arrived we were met with incredibly friendly staff and a glass of champagne. We were then shown to our immaculate room with all the luxury one could hope for. The balcony with a hammock and a hot tub was the icing on the cake. The restaurants were delicious, as were the drinks throughout our stay. The staff was incredible and went above and beyond. Yes, it is not cheap, but after experiencing it for myself it was worth every penny. I will definitely be returning to Hotel Mousai.

"April in 2023 at Garca Blanca."

We vacationed on the beach this time, having been on the mountain before. Our experience was delightful. Not only was the room's view beautiful, but the housekeeping and turndown service made us firm believers in the Garza Blanca Welcome Home atmosphere. Rosa along with Gaby made our room so special. Rosa is a treasure. We knew our pool area would be more crowded, especially with children. But the pool area runs smoothly due to the efforts of many, but specifically Rey, Tito and Mike. If you don't enjoy the children we found the pool on the hill very relaxing. We gravitated mostly to Blanca Blue for our meals. Don't get me wrong, the other places are great but staff, menu and proximity out weighed our other considerations. I believe the person who runs the restaurant is Manuel, if so, he has assembled a greatcrew including Gustavo, Leon and Alvaro! This restaurant does get the bulk of the children so it can be noisy, but that's why there is alcohol: Ulysses and Angel make the best drinks. The sunset from your table is most memorable.We want to give Carol our concierge a thank you for all her fun and helpful advice.No matter where we wandered on the facility, we found wonderful, friendly and warm representatives. Please plan to stay for a visit if you are visiting Puerto Vallarta.

"Great hike at Garza Blanca resort activities team!"

Excellent hiking experience with Sergio! He took us on a 2 hour hike into the beautiful jungle. Shared information about the areas history along the way. Felt safe throughout the advanced hike. Highly recommend Sergio- we are planning to go again during our stay!!

"Superbe"

Wonderful experience! The service was impeccable and we felt thoroughly pampered hand and foot. And shall I mention the food? A foodies Mexican trip dream. At the Italian restaurant, Noi, Francisco Jose Miguel and Leonardo were top notch. The team serving us at Hiroshi, Diego Silva, Rueben and Miguel, made our night truly one to remember. They were Outstanding! Also at Dai, Luis and Ariana made us feel very welcome and made sure every second we spent there, a five star experience. Boracos steak house made for an excellent birthday dinner for my sweetie. He was made to feel special. Blue Blanca was amazing. Loved the octopus dish and the soufflé dessert. The rooftop pool was a daily afternoon fave activity. We will will be back.

"Beautiful mountain views and great food!"

While staying at Garza Blanca, we were able to enjoy the restaurants, gyms, and spa at Hotel Mousai. The gym has an amazing view of the resort and beach! The hotel offers great views of the mountain. We had a great dinner at Noi, where our waiters (Jose and Leonardo) were very welcoming, helpful, and attentive! LOVED the food at Dao!

"Heaven"

Had a wonderful time, as always, at Hotel Mousai, celebrating our 11 year anniversary with friends! We stayed in the south tower penthouse this time and it was wonderful. Special shout out to Jenny, the manager at the rooftop, along with Juan, Greta and Karen! Ernesto was our butler who took great care of us, helping with reservations and transportation. Luis at the spa was amazing. I booked multiple spa appointments, Also, Ricardo Leon, our bellboy was wonderful as always and helped us with our luggage when it was time to go. Such a nice guy! Truly, there are just so many great staff members here - which is why we keep returning! Cesar in room service was very helpful - always cheerful. Bertin at the new Italian spot was excellent - although the food was not our favorite. It was the one time the food made you feel like you're at an all-inclusive. Hiroshi remains our favorite, where Irvin and Alexandra took great care of us and made excellent recommendations! One note for housekeeping - we kept having to request washcloths. (Please just give people washcloths.) One thing I'll note about the new South tower versus the North tower is that the South Tower sky pool does have a bathroom ON the same level - which is nice. No more trekking down the stairs to the use the bathroom by the gym. Much more convenient. The south tower rooftop also somehow feels larger! We also went to Karuma - which was OK. The hubs says the steak was REALLY good, everything else was just sort of okay. Also, for those with a nut allergy (like me), do not get the mac and cheese. Surprisingly the cheese sauce includes nuts somehow... I don't know why... so that was annoying/disappointing. I still prefer Bacados - but perhaps with time, the menu at Karuma will improve. Service was great though! All in all, a wonderful trip and we can't wait to return!

"Another fantastic stay."

Recently got back from our marvellous extended retirement stay (8 weeks!) at Garza Blanca, and wanted to commend the great staff for making our stay so delightful. The Butlers, Jose, Alejandro, Roberto, and Zuno, made sure everything from taxis to dinner reservations to last minute emergency needs were taken care of through their daily check ins. The pool and beach staff, Mike, Emilio, Marco, Sergio, Diego, and Danny, were like friends making sure we were comfortable and having a good time (even helping me with my paddle boarding technique). The housekeeping staff, especially Veronica and Sylvia did an amazing job of keeping our suite clean, while adding special touches (towel swans to balloon flowers) to help us celebrate special occasions while we were there. And finally, but certainly not least, Luis, our original sales representative for helping us through the years and not becoming a friend we look forward to seeing each time were there.

This was our 4th visit to Hotel Mousai and we absolutely loved it, as per usual! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Greta took care of us at the pool and Humberto took care of pretty much everything else. The meals were all wonderful and the drinks are so fresh. We are obsessed with the rooftop pool and they have the most beautiful spa right underneath. We love everything about Mousai and will be back again soon!

"Best Anniversary"

This is our 6th visit to a hotel Mousai (2nd stay in South Tower) and as alwaysits our favorite adults only in Mexico! We were very lucky to request and have Butler, Carlos Ramos. We had requested him this visit as well as our visit in January 2022, because he is by far the best. So incredibly generous of his time, very genuine, and beyond professional. Every minute of our stay was perfect from check in process, our room, reservations for every meal, chairs saved by the pool, mimosas and lattes delivered every morning at the same time, Spa appointment, transportation to and from. He would start the day early in the morning checking on us via WhatsApp text to see how our night was & to see if we needed anything immediately. Would make a point to come check in on us a few times throughout the day at the pool as well as check in before he left for the evening. I cannot say how amazing he is - we are excited to come back with friends and have him again. The entire staff at Hotel Mousai is great. Gustavo, manager from Noi restaurant recognized us on our first evening and made a point to come over and say hello. We saw him throughout our stay and had a great conversation. Aperol Spritzs at Lobby bar are the best. Spa is amazing, all the decor is fabulous and venture down to the beach @ Garza Blanca and head out in kayaks, paddle board etc. or a quick ride into town for some amazing night life and food. Huge shout out to rooftop pool- Juan worked his tail off getting drinks to everyone and Greta who was happy, saved us seats super early in the am and everyone who made our trip so fun. Entertainment at night was fabulous as well. All staff was over the top friendly, professional, and fun. Some great staff to mention:Carlos Ramos- BEST butler ever!!! Rooftop pool (South) Ignacio taco, Juan, Orlando, Mateo, Jennifer, Kate and our girl, Greta- ALL the bar tenders especially Yair.

"Absolute Paradise"

My mom and I had the trip of a lifetime to Hotel Mousai and will be making this an annual trip until we die, because it is just that good! Drop everything and book a week here right now!From the moment you arrive; there is just something about mousai that makes it feel like youve been transported to another world where dreams come true and everything makes sense :)We stayed at the north tower and the rooftop pool north is definitely where its at! The south tower is much newer and a bit grander but the view from the rooftop north doesnt compare. In January we had the pleasure of watching pods of whales breath daily from the comfort of the insanely huge infinity pool.Our butler Carlos arrived to greet us on our first morning and it was like meeting a famous telenovela star! He was so professional, yet approachable and so kind. Taking care of our every need, from daily dinner reservations, to spa treatments. He even heard it was my birthday and had our room decorated with amazing balloons and streamers. We will make sure Carlos is a part of every trip to Mousai moving forward. Id trust the man with my life!Our favorites at the pool were Yessenia, Ramone, and Ricardo. The food up at the rooftop was incredible (tacos, nachos, sashimi, and the Caesar were some of our faves). The Watermelon drink was incredible too.Our favorite restaurants were Dao (shoutout to Luis -his big muscles and amazing service) and Noi (Jerry is the man!). Daos Mongolian beef and Nois filet were incredible.Ana Lopez came to do our turndown each night and she was honestly the sweetest. We were excited to have our ferry godmother come each night to tuck us in and tidy the room!Everything at mousai is top notch, world class! Ive traveled to 5 star resorts in 20+ countries all over the world and Im telling you this place is at the top of the list. The Santorini esque view from the rooftop, the service, the food and the cozy comfort of paradise made this a true trip of a lifetime for my mom and me.Cant wait to see all of our friends next year and every year after!!!

"Ultimate relaxation and exceptional service"

I only write reviews when something or someone exceeds my expectations and Hotel Mousai and its employees certainly did. Check in was a breezeThe rooms are stunning. We stayed in the South tower in a corner suite. Unbelievable! Our butlerErnesto was fabulous. He took care of our every need. His recommendations on extra activities and restaurants was spot on . He is awesome! The concierge Jovana is simply adorable. She is a shining light and goes above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable. We love to travel and rarely do we go to the same hotel twice. This one would be the exception! The food, drinks, rooftop pools, service and sheer beauty of the place was intoxicating! Thank you to the staff at Hotel Mousai for making this an unforgettable experience. I wish I could remember every employee s name as they all were wonderful. The last night we ate at Karuna. Speechless! I will be writing a separate review! Thank you again!We hope to see you soon!!!

The hotel was quiet and clean. Room was always cleaned and tidy. Hotel staff and restaurant servers were always eager to serve. Especially our butler, Nicte Salvatierrs was excellent. She always responded to our needs right away. She resolved all our minor issues right away. I enjoyed all the restaurants. Breakfast at the Terrance was excellent. Dinner at the Dao (Chinese), Noi (Italian), and Hiroshi (Japanese) were all fantastic. Rooftop (south) was the best relaxed place, and the food was great. My favorite dishes were Aguachille and Octopus Skewers. Special thanks to Juan and all South Rooftop staff.

This was our 5th trip to Garza Blanca. This time we stayed at Hotel Mousai but all other times have been at Garza Blanca. Weve brought our kids (ages 5 and 3) twice. Sergio and Emilio were great hiking guides. Letty with housekeeping kept our room spotless. The kids club is available to kids younger than 5 as long as the parents stay for the activity too. Brizzet and Paulina were wonderful with the kids. Well definitely be back!

"Great place to visit for families!"

We had a really good time at this resort. We had our five kids with us and they enjoyed meeting Brizzet, Nancy, Angie, and Berenice at kids club. These wonderful ladies entertained them for hours while we relaxed and the kids didnt want to leave! What a great perk to have at a resort. We knew we didnt have to worry a bit about the kids while they were there and that peace of mind just made all the difference. Thank you Garza Kids Club!Also absolutely have to give a shout-out to Omar, our concierge who went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. All the butlers were amazing but Zuno really made us feel take care of. He was on top of anything we needed and was organized, warm, and made us feel like he really cared. Roberto was a fabulous server and always kept us well fed and hydrated while we were relaxing at the pool. Gloria with the concierge also really made a huge difference on our holiday, making sure our room issues got sorted out amazingly. All the staff at GBPV need a pat on the back! We will be back soon!!!

"Hightlight was the wonderful staff of the kid clubs and outdoor activity staff"

Myself, husband and two daughters age 7 and 4 stayed at Garza Blanca PV for a week in March 2023. Everything from the grounds, rooms, decor and food was excellent, really outstanding quality and wonderfully clean. But there were a few staff members that really made my own and my daughter's stay 10/10 amazing - Nancy and Brizzet - the activity leaders of the Children's club. They were so kind, communicative, flexible, and responsible. I was able to leave my happy children in their capable hands to do children's activities like tennis, hiking, carousel, painting and more. They nurtured my 4 year old with extra care and attention since she was a bit on the young side. During the time they spent in the children's club, I was able to take advantage of the daily hiking, yoga and kayaking activities on site, and this time in nature and exercise with ease and childcare was truly was my idea of heaven as a mom! The outdoor activity staff were capable and fun, I enjoyed each differing activity! Marco, amongst the activity staff, really stood out as an exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging hike leader, both for small group and rather large group of people on a hike. As with most things in life, we always remember how people treated us above all, as the material details fade with time. Some of the wonderful staff members I've mentioned, really made the whole thing terrific. Unfortunately, I forgot the name of the housekeeper that scrupulously cleaned our room daily, we spoke several times and she as well, was a simply lovely person who showed us hospitality with her excellent skill and little artistic flourishes around the room. Thank you Garza Blanca staff, and Mr Corona, for your fantastic vision of a resort on a natural reserve. Sincerely, Andrea Hata

"4 1/2 stars for this PV gem."

My wife and I visited PV for the first time this April and picked Garza Blanca over several other all inclusive options. We were really impressed with the overall food quality and service at the resort; it also boast some the best views weve ever had anywhere weve traveled. Our room was literally right over the ocean and we could hear the waves crashing all night; it was amazing. The pool was really nice all though drink service doesnt start till 11 and food until 12; that was a negative we thought. Its also a smaller pool and seats fill up fast. Ray helped us during our entire stay with our lower pool seats and that guy is a seriously hard working man who goes the extra mile for everyone! We visited all the restaurants and had one of the best dinners of our life at the steakhouse. You simply cant beat the sunsets there! Hiroshi was also really great with fantastic service and incredible sushi! The Italian restaurant Noi was also a standout as was our service from Gabriel and Keery; these guys are over the top with everything. The property is absolutely stunning and my wife gave the spa her best ever review and thats saying something. The gym is also the best Ive ever seen in a hotel anywhere with views that go on forever. We did the Kayak tour with Danny and had a great time all though we were totally wiped out after as its a heck of a workout. Danny was a great guide and added a lot to our experience. Id read the sales pitch is a bit much here but we never felt that way. I wanna also give a shout out to Diego and Dante who both really stood out for their service during our stay. Its not usual that we wanna come back to a resort but seeing the plans they have for adding on to this one we will definitely be back. Id give Garza Blanca 4 1/2 stars and would recommend to anyone.

"An incredible stay for our first time in Mexico"

My husband and I just returned from our first trip to Mexico, where we stayed at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta. This was also our first time staying at an all-inclusive resort. To say that is was the most relaxing, luxurious, and enjoyable vacation we have ever taken is an understatement! The standouts:- The staff were unbelievably friendly. Every single worker who we interacted with at the resort was helpful, friendly, and kind--even those who we just passed by on the sidewalk. - We absolutely adored Tito, who led us on a hike up in the surrounding mountains. His positive energy was infectious, and we were delighted to see him working at the pool later in the day! We also had great service at each of the restaurants. Daniel, Jesus, and Jorge at Blanca Blue were especially helpful. The hostesses at Blanca Blue and Bocados recognized us every time we visited and always made us feel so welcome. The trolley drivers also had great energy and saved us many trips up and down the mountain to and from our room. TIP: Make your reservations as far in advance as possible. Try to eat at Bocados during sunset for incredible views.- Our room was gigantic and immaculately kept by Griselda and Ale from the cleaning team. We were surprised our first day that our room was tidied up twice per day while we stayed. They always made sure to make the bed up perfectly, using the blankets and pillows as decorations. We also had a fresh water bottle placed on our nightstands every night.- Every step you take at the resort is surrounded by exceptional views of the natural landscape. The road was a tad loud from our balcony, but at no point did it take away from our experience. We also visited while a lot of construction was happening in the surrounding mountains, but there was hardly any noise from this.- The pool areas are gorgeous, and the pool attendants and waiters make sure you never go hungry or thirsty. Because we had the all-inclusive package, we took advantage of many delicious drinks and snacks from Aquazul. Alvaro and Daniel by the pool were very attentive waiters! Even when I was in the water, they would come and find me to ensure my glass was full!- We enjoyed the kayak and snorkel ocean tour hosted by Danny. I got a little seasick at the end, and to be honest it was way harder than I thought--I should have known that kayaking in the ocean would be a big job! He did stop the group at the halfway point and give people the chance to turn around if they thought it was going to be too much. That said, it was fun to experience the ocean in this new way. The snorkeling was a bit murky, but we did see some colorful fish. Danny gave us lots of history of Los Arcos and let us kayak through the natural tunnels. We felt very safe and had a good time. Just be warned that this excursion is no joke in terms of physicality.The ONLY thing...- There were a couple of times where it was really hard to find a seat by the pool, especially if you were out for a morning excursion. People would sneak down early and "reserve" chairs by throwing down their stuff and then leaving for the morning. The pool attendants did what they could to prevent this, but that was the only thing that was a tad frustrating. It seems like the property is expanding quickly and there will be more pools as they new towers are built, so hopefully this problem is able to be solved by having more pool space. - There are a lóóot of stairs to climb to get to the upper towers. Holy smokes. Folks with mobility issues will want to wait for the trollies. To be fair, the stairs are clean, clear, and nicely landscaped...but lots of stairs.Last notes:- We were nervous that there would be timeshare pitch around every corner, but not once were we approached for a cold-call sale. It seems like you will only be given the timeshare pitch if you seek it out. That was a relief!-Spring for the all-inclusive! We had heard horror stories about other resorts where you shell out for the all-inclusive only for the food to be inedible. The food is DELICIOUS. The breakfast buffet at Blanca Blue features a crepe/waffle station (which we unfortunately didn't discover until our second-to-last day!), and the Bocados steakhouse is a real treat. There are other restaurants on the property that are not included, but we stuck to the ones we had already paid for and felt like we ate great.- We booked through Costco which was extremely convenient. We indicated that we were celebrating our anniversary, and we arrived to a bottle of champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries. Would recommend!All in all, we had a remarkable vacation and will look forward to returning in the future.

"Really blown away by quality"

We are typically adventure travelers. Old school Tulum, etc. So did not have high expectations. But this was a large family reunion so an all-inclusive made sense.Was totally blown away by the place. Very modern and well kept, the rooms are huge, the staff is super friendly and attentive, food was excellent, and the pool and beach and rest of facilities were top notch.Was particularly impressed by the staff. Did not feel like everybody was jonesing for a tip. Genuinely very friendly. And super attentive.We still have a day and a half of our weeklong visit so will update. But huge shout out to Ulysses. Who is the bartender by the pool. Very friendly, knowledgeable without being saccharine. Only criticism is that we have a 10-year-old and that meant we could only eat at two of the many restaurants on site. It would have been much better if they switched to 'adult only' later in the evening so we could have taken advantage of all the restaurants with her. Only two restaurants for a whole week becomes a bit repetitive. That said, we did slip away to both the Italian and the Chinese restaurants. They were both phenomenal and in fact, much better than the family restaurants. The Italian one was particularly amazing, but I think that's more personal taste. There is a ton of food and drinks included with the all-inclusive. While there were some nice looking dishes that we could have gotten if we paid extra, totally didn't feel like I was missing out in not getting them. Also, if you want to buy a nice bottle of wine, it comes out of pocket but frankly unnecessary. The wine by the glass, which is included as part of the inclusive plan, were really good. Had both the Cabernet and the Sauvignon Blanc and they are both great.

"Review for those with little ones"

We just returned from a week-long vacation to Garza Blanca with my wife and two daughters (8 and 3 years old). We stayed in the main building in a one bedroom suite which provided beautiful views of the ocean and was a nice short walk to the pool for the kids. The building was quiet and you could not hear anything from anyone above us or beside us. Room was extremely clean, well laid out, and with the provision of a cot, gave us ample room to have one of our daughters in our room with the cot and other daughter on the pull out sofa bed. What I wish we knew before going: Drinks: Drinks by the pool do not start until 11:00am, you can always go to Blanca Blue to grab a drink earlier than this but be prepared to stand for a bit as the bartenders will give priority to the servers before making a drink for someone standing there. While not a major issue, would have been nice to sit by the pool and be able to have a coffee and baileys served instead of waiting until 11:00am or having to walk to Blanca Blue. Snacks/Food:In addition to this, the pool snack bar does not open until 12:00pm, again you can go to Blanca Blue for food, but having two young kids we had to scramble to get snacks for them and Blanca Blue was not always happy to provide a "to go container" when I asked for one. If you are traveling with kids I'd suggest getting extra food for breakfast and taking it down with you by the pool or even ordering something extra with room service to take with you to the pool until noon. Dinners: We knew options were limited with kids, but didn't really realize how limited. We had booked Blanca Blue and Bocados a couple of nights before arriving and were only able to book Aquazul the day of our reservation. They do offer babysitting services. however, since this was a family trip it would have been nice to be able to go to more restaurants together as a family. In addition to this, although there is a buffet at breakfast all other meals are a la carte, so if you do not have a reservation for dinner be prepared to order room service as there is no buffet option you can stop in to. Night life: There is a great set up at Tierraluna gardens, it was incredibly quiet when we went up there, and enjoyed just being able to walk around with our family and stop at the carrousel. We stopped at Karuma for a drink and did not realize at the time this was not covered by our all inclusive plan - further to this, the service here was horrible, having to wait 30 minutes for a glass of water and were treated as a burden rather than welcomed as guests. We would never complain about a wait as being able to just enjoy each others company and the atmosphere is always something we look forward to but the way in which we were treated here was almost appalling. Randomness: I had never stayed at an all inclusive where you have to sign for everything and began to get worried what I was paying for and what was covered as "all inclusive". It is handy in the sense if you want to just charge your tips back to your room, however if you brought cash for tips it becomes redundant to have to keep filling out what room number you're in and signing. Also, the only alcohol you'll find in the room is 4 beers and possibly some champagne, if you want a high ball or wine plan accordingly to order up room service (max 2 drinks per adult). I would also caution you to WATCH YOUR BILLS - it is hit and miss whether or not the tip was included so often found ourselves double tipping. Finally, if you plan on checking out, I suggest waiting to the very last minute before leaving - I had gone down to finalize my bill on our last day and informed the front desk that we were still finishing up in the room and still needed access, however they cut our wifi immediately and had to pay out of pocket for one last drink while waiting for our airport transportation to pick us up - this is minor but a bit of an insult given how much we had paid to stay there for the week. In closing;It was a beautiful resort, and the staff (apart from Karuma) were amazing and treated my family like their own. Carmen at the spa is amazing - my wife had an 80 minute facial and would HIGHLY recommend it, Javier always made sure we were taken care of and Ray was there for us every morning with towels and a friendly morning hola, IVAN, IVAN, IVAN AMAZING - the BEST server we had by far the entire trip and last but certainly not least ... ANGELICA - THE WORLD'S GREATEST HOUSEKEEPER and who we kept calling our fairy God-Mother. She is a gem and made every day spent there feel like home. We had a wonderful vacation and very much enjoyed our time; however, it is definitely geared towards guests with no children or older children with little to no night life.

"Quintessential Vacation"

Thanks to Antonio, Marcelino, Eduardo, and Karen at the south rooftop here at hotel mousai for the great service over the last 6 days we stayed here. This is where we spent the majority of the time due to the amazing rooftop atmosphere and all the amenitites provided in the all inclusive package. The staff mentioned before have an amazing attitude and get you set up fast and easy every single time. Youll have fun up here all the time because of them!Shout out to the rest of the staff for always being solution-oriented and making any sort of annoyance a hassle-free experience

"The good, the great and some room for improvement"

Ill start off by saying my family really enjoyed our stay and the kindness of the staff. The location is so beautiful, and the resort is kept very clean and well maintained. The real standouts for us were the kids club and Dao restaurant. All the staff at the kids club (Brizette, Nancy, Leo, Angie and crew) work tirelessly to keep the children happy and entertained. It really enhanced our vacation experience for our son to be not only willing, but enthusiastic to visit the kids club every day. Add to that the kids club dinner, where the staff take the kiddos to dinner and keep track of them into the evening, which allowed us to sample the adults only restaurants at Hotel Mousai we were thrilled to have such truly caring and attentive staff to care for our son. Speaking of the restaurants Dao was far and away the most amazing restaurant on the property. Everything we tasted was simply delicious and we couldnt have asked for better service than what we received from Luis, Cesar and Daniel. They not only kept the food and drinks coming but did so with such friendly service. Dao and its staff are a must visit when staying at Garza Blanca or Mousai. Some additional staff Id be remiss not to mention include Marco & Eloy from Blanca Blue. From our first night they both made us, and our son feel so welcome. Marco & Eloy also paid special attention to our son during the kids nights when he dined at Blanca Blue with the kids program. Tito and Mike from the pool staff were also standouts, Tito for his contagious happiness and enthusiasm and Mike for his patient guidance and kindness during our nature hike and throughout our stay. Last, but not least, Mariana Lima took great care to keep our room very clean throughout our stay. Even if we happened by when she was servicing our room, she graciously allowed us to pop in to grab whatever we needed without making us feel as though we were inconveniencing her. The room for improvement would be that outside Dao our dining experiences were hit and miss and enforcement of the rules seemed to be inconsistent (pool rules and dress codes). The overall quality of the food is good, but not always as high as I expected heading into this trip (our first visit to GB). This was especially true for lunch service as the sit-down service in Blanca Blue left a lot to be desired and the level of service made it seem like an inconvenience for the staff. We certainly didnt starve as options for food were plentiful, but we were disappointed a few times during our stay (room service left a lot to be desired, including losing our breakfast order one morning). Overall the trip was fantastic and we were glad to have chosen to stay at Garza Blanca.

"Garza Blanca Vacation"

We have stayed at Garza Blanca many times and every time we have the greatest service. A shout out to Cecilia in housekeeping and Silvia for turndown service, the elite butlers - Jose, Roberto and Alejandro, and Margarito and Tito and Francisco (bellboy, pool service and tours). They all go out of their way to ensure our stay is perfect. The resort is beautiful and has the best view in Puerto Vallarta too!

"Wonderful experience."

Amazing resort!! The setting is beautiful and the amenities were well maintained. The staff from start to finish are welcoming, friendly and accommodating. Most everyone speaks English, but all are patient and helpful if you want to practice your Spanish. Juan, Francisco and Tito at the beach pool were amazing, attentive, friendly and fun. Always smiling and moving fast. Emilio was our hiking guide. He was knowledgeable, fun, patient and also always smiling. Enrique and Gabriel our servers at NOI provided us with excellent, intimate, knowledgeable and friendly service. This resort incorporates the surrounding tropical terrain into the experience. The beach front studio is large with nice size oceanfront deck with hammock. Everyone greets you with a sincere Buenos Diaz or appropriate time when passing you at anytime throughout your stay. Quality resort and wonderful stay!!

"Best Anniversary Experience"

We stayed at Mousai a few weeks ago for our anniversary. After enjoying Garza Blanca in Cancun in November we decided to try Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta. It didnt disappoint, from the moment we walked in we were treated exceptionally well and made to feel as welcome as possible. I had booked an Ultra Corner suite in the South Tower and we were upgraded to the Master Suite in the same tower on the top floor. The views and the sunsets were spectacular, not to mention the room was incredible. The food is really exceptional for an all inclusive and being a foodie one of the things that drew us to try another Garza Blanca location. I have to call out our butler Diego Mora, absolutely spectacular. He made all of our arrangements and dinner reservations, checked our needs every day multiple times and was sincerely very nice and kind. Even took care of us on his day off. Hotel Mousai is very luck to have him. Natalie also made our anniversary very special with champagne and flowers. Thank you everyone at Hotel Mousai we will definitely see you again.

The hotel itself was superb, but the service was even more so. Our Butler Carlos handled every detail of our day to day activities and made the entire trip stress free and relaxing. He took care of everything from getting breakfast delivered to our room to running to the pharmacy to pickup an item we needed. We will definitely visit the Mousai again, but with the only condition that Carlos is our Butler. We appreciate all extra care and attention we received. Thank you for making it a wonderful trip!

"Planning Our Return Trip"

The views, food, atmosphere were all incredible. We travel to Mexico regularly and finally committed to the Mousai. Well- there is no going anyplace else now. More than anything, the service was like nothing weve ever experienced. We stayed in the north tower. The team at the rooftop pool left no stone unturned. Jonathan, Alejandro, Guillermo, Arturo & Ramon all made us feel very welcome and spoiled lol. At Hiroshi restaurant, Diego Silva and Alejandra went above and beyond. Service like weve never experienced very attentive, and warm & welcoming. And hats off to all the chefs!! We did ask for some substitutions (more like additions), and wow! Finally, our butler Carlos could not have been better. We were celebrating our birthdays, and he helped in grand fashion. We are already looking to book our return trip! We did the all inclusive option, which we recommend. It isnt like most these are all higher end, ala carte restaurants. Not buffets or limited nightly seatings.

"Beautiful location and property but needs some fine tuning"

The good: Location was amazing. It's not too far from the hub, but far enough away for the pace to be slower and more relaxing. We booked an Ultra Corner Suite South, which is in the newest tower. The room was well set up with amenities but no bathtub. We did have a jacuzzi on our balcony so not a big issue. There's an I-Pad which controls the lights, drapes, music and room temperature. Speaking of temperature, you truly can control the room temperature. We like a cool room and were able to keep it that way. There's also a ceiling fan that works very efficiently. The bedroom/living room area has two small seating areas. We didn't really use them because, when we were in the room, we were on the balcony. There's two separate sliding door areas to access the balcony. I usually find hotel beds to be too firm for me but the mattress was comfortable. The two nightstands, though a bit cluttered, had plants if space for my C-Pap. There's a surprising amount of electrical outlets by the nightstands and the room overall. The bathroom has a standard set up with two sinks and good counter space for toiletries. The large shower area with seating was greatly appreciated. The toilet room is a comfortable size. It has a bidet seat but you can turn it off, if it's not your thing. There's plenty of closet space for hanging clothing and a cabinet for underclothes. There's an iron and board for The safe is good size for a laptop. There's a lounge chair, The room category we booked had a wraparound balcony with amazing views. The jacuzzi was perfect for two. We made it our daily ritual before we'd get ready for dinner. There are to upright chairs and oddly only one lounge chair to lay in the sun. There's also a hammock and small table out there.We opted for the all-inclusive package. The dinner restaurants overall, had a variety of menus options. There's a Japanese, Chinese and Italian on site. Down the hill at the Garza Blanca property, there's a steakhouse and a Mexican restaurant. Both the North and South Towers have a rooftop pool. The pool area has a beautiful view of the ocean and hills. We ate several times poolside and the drink and food service was quick and friendly, with an extensive menu. The bad: Consistency! We ate at Dao three nights in our ten night stay. The food was lacking flavor on the two Mondays but was far better on Friday. A restaurant shouldn't vary so much depending on the day. The bartender also needs some retraining. I ordered a Mai Tai and it was horrible. I reordered is and it was worse! I would expect more from a Chinese themed restaurant. Maid service was hit and miss. Though the day maid was a very kind and friendly person, we were never sure how many towels and products we would get. The turndown service was more miss than hit. One day they showed up at 5pm. We were getting ready to shower and was just handed some towels. They never came back. One night we got back to the room about 9:45pm. We never got turndown. I had to call and wait to get it. In I hadn't, we wouldn't have towels for our morning shower. One afternoon we ran out of facial tissue. I pulled the empty box out of it's enclosure so it would be very visible that we were out. Got back after dinner and had turndown service but the empty box was still sitting there. I lucky there was still a maid a few doors down. I asked for the facial tissue and she gave me an opened box. Mixed feelings about that. Would I go back: Yes, overall we had a wonderful and relaxing time. I also want to acknowledge a few people by name. Concierge Rosy and Jeane. They are amazing not only at their job but truly kind people. They were never too busy to say good morning or stop over to see how our day was going or if we needed anything. They exceeded my expectations. I would go back just to see them again! Bell person Ricardo Leon was more than a "luggage guy"! He was kind and always asked how our day was going. Bartender Manuel in the South tower lobby bar was amazing. We had finally found a bartender who made drinks to a standard we expected and good conversation. Also all the wait/bar staff in the South tower rooftop pool. They all were attentive, friendly and always willing to joke with you. Thank you all for a wonderful vacation.

Diego Silva was our server and he was AMAZING! So extremely friendly from the minute we met him, he called us our friends and treated us as people that he would enjoy hanging out with outside of work. His service is what you would expect from a 5 star resort, and more! I commend you Diego, keep up the good work and continue to make connections with the people you serve.

We had an amazing time at Garza Blanca with our family. We went for a wedding celebration and made it a family vacation. Could not remember the last time all of the members of the family were so happy on vacation! The suite and view was amazing, the food was outstanding and everything was so easy with our kids since the pools were warm and there was always something fun for them to do like snorkel, kayak, carousel, collect shells, whale watch from our balcony and many more. Everyone at the hotel was so friendly and helpful. Our housekeeper Mariana was fantastic and made our stay so much better by knowing our babys nap schedule and cleaning around it so that he could get his rest!

"Fantastic resort with excellent views, rooms, food & service!"

We are departing Garza Blanca today after a week of relaxing at this fantastic resort after an all-inclusive experience. My wife and I were trying to come up with ways the resort could have made our experience better and really struggled! The restaurants all served really good food and the service was great. Tony really spoiled us at the pool with great service. We had breakfast at Bocados every morning and ordered from the menu each day and had incredible views. The only issue I had was the nearest golf course was 45 minutes away and there is not a ton really near the resort. However, one can Uber or ride the local bus into downtown to experience PV. Overall, we became Garza Blanca fans after this experience!Tips:Take an Uber from the airport for between $20-$25. The authorized taxis cost $35 plus tip. We did not attend the sales presentation and did not feel pressured to do so.

We had a lovely trip here for my birthday! Humberto (our butler) was so sweet and went out of his way to help with anything we needed! Ramon and Manuel at the Noi bar were awesome - we all had a good time and they made the best drinks! The chef at Noi also had a good sense of humor and made us a special off the menu pizza that was delicious! Ricardo was a really friendly bellboy who we loved seeing throughout the trip as well! Rosey was very nice (concierge) and helped us get restaurants booked each night, she even told them it was my birthday and got us a bottle of champagne to celebrate. Jose was also wonderful - we couldnt afford the membership program, but he did an amazing job explaining it and making us feel welcome. Unfortunately when we declined the membership, they brought in a shark to hammer at us and try to get us to buy into the program. Elliott was this person for us and was extremely insulting, pushy, and judgmental. When we finally said no enough times, he just walked away without any further words. He was the only negative of the trip. I recommend declining their free promotions you can get (massages, excursions, etc) by sitting through these time share sales presentations. It took 3 hours of our morning and the second guy ruined our vacation happiness for a few more hours then as well. Not worth the saved cost of activities - I promise! Be sure to eat at the Japanese restaurant for INCREDIBLE sashimi! Get the miso creme brlée. You wont regret it! Also side note, take a quick taxi into town - the staff can help set this up even) and go to Panchos Takos. Best tacos and Al pastor of our lives :)

"Great Mexico experience"

This is a beautiful all inclusive hotel. The staff is very attentive and the food is great. We are vegan and had so many options. During February the whales come so close to the bay, we saw some up close while kayaking.

"One of the best all inclusives weve been to"

Garza Blanca is great! The hotel property is built on the side of a mountain which makes it incredibly picturesque. We stayed in an ocean front studio, there were no obstructions and we could hear the waves crashing from our balcony. The rooms are very nice sized with a large walk in closet with plenty of room to keep a 4 person familys belongings out of sight. We took our kids, 6 and 9 and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The ocean front suites are right by the beach, pool, Blanca Blue and lobby areas. The rooms also smell good, no musty funk, which Im always worried about in tropical climates. The other towers are up the hill and you can take the nice walkways up or take the trolly back and forth. It would have been quite a trek with kids all day. Id pick an oceanfront if youre there with little ones!Our kids enjoyed time at the kids club and Brizzette and Nancy were amazing with them. They even offer by reservation ($5 usd each child when we stayed) Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings so we could enjoy an adults only restaurant. We picked Dao and it was wonderful. The daytime kids club is free and there are activities throughout the day. We paid the extra for all inclusive and felt it was well worth the money. The restaurants at the hotel are quite expensive for Mexico (our steakhouse dinner for 4 plus drinks was well over $300usd, breakfast averaged over $100usd) and it was nice to not have to worry about our spending. The resort is also far away from anything, so youd have to take a cab into town to eat, which takes about 20 min. The drinks were flowing and cocktails were tasty! The best all inclusive we have ever stayed at in terms of service and food. Breakfast you can choose buffet, lunch and dinner was ala carte. The food was great, and its amazing it includes the steakhouse. There are amazing views everywhere you look and all of the staff are incredibly friendly. The resort is very clean and well maintained too. We werent able to take advantage of the kayak/snorkel, but did the waterfall hike. Id say it wasnt easy because there are lots of boulder type rocks, but medium. Our kids did it and we even jumped in the waterfall pool at the end!We expected a timeshare sell when we got there, they didnt mention it. I dont know if it was my constant jabber about relaxing with drinks by the pool or the fact that we had kids, but there was not one word on check in! We did book all our dinner reservations online before we got there, maybe that helped? Our room was kept well stocked with water, beer and sodas.

"An Amazing Stay with Amazing Accommodations!!"

My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary in an Ultra Suite with ocean view in the North Tower. The bed, shower, jacuzzi, and room amenities were amazing. As was the roof top Infiniti pool!! We spent the majority of our time on the roof top pool taking in the amazing ocean and jungle scenery. We were able to spot whales each and every day from our room and the pool. Our personal butler, Diego Morci, ensure all our needs were taken care of - from nightly dinner reservations, to daily hydro therapy at the spa, and a kayaking excursion to Los Archos for a truly remarkable snorkeling adventure. Thank you Hotel Mousai and thank you Diego Morci for making our stay so memorable. Recommendations for others looking for a luxury stay is to book a room at one of the Mousai towers. Be sure dine at Hiroshi, Noi, and Dao restaurants to round out the experience. You won't be disappointed.

This hotel is amazing; the food and the view are exceptional, but beyond that the staff truly makes this experience. This is our second time visiting hotel Mousai and it did not disappoint, we are already planning the next trip. The staff welcomed us back and treated us so well. They really went above and beyond and paid attention to every detail. Special thanks to the staff at the rooftop pool, there service is impecable Jonathon, Yessenia, Angel, Alejandro, Marcelino, Juan, and Rigoberto were amazing! Also special thanks to Manuel at the bar at Noi, he makes the best cocktails and was so kind. We had the best experience mostly because of the staff they really are the reason we will continue to come back.

"A Fantastic month of vacation at a Fantastic Resort!"

I wanted to give some recognition to many of the hard working employees at Garza Blanca.Mike Avila (pool concierge) is always so helpful and a great person to talk to around the pool. Good to see Oswaldo Zuno and how he is moving up in his roles at the resorts, was always the best kayak/snorkel guide at GB! Sergio (pool concierge) has learned the ropes and was a great guy to meet and get to know, and we hiked with him many times. Marco (pool concierge) was a lot of fun, a good hiking guide and just a funny guy. Danny and Diego were great to kayak with and also a lot of fun. Was nice to meet Emilio (pool concierge) while he learns his role at GB. Tito was fantastic as ever and full of info for the jungle hikes, great to see him around the pool as well. The pool waiters around the main pool are all very attentive (Alex, Roberto, Alejandro, Ponciano), they all work so hard!Looking forward to coming back next year!

Loved the environment and had fun with friends. A little frustrated as we came for peaceful get away but heard construction and dump trucks most of the time. understand the need for progress but would have been nice to have a note saying sorry for noise and time frames to expect disruptive noise. Otherwise updates from 2020 are lovely. Evening turn down was lovely and provided a sense of being pampered. Marisol Sevrano and team did a lovely job providing me a beautiful break from the daily task of keeping a house clean and those in it feeling loved. Thank you so so much!!!

"Hiroshi - Dining Par Excellence"

After a long wait, we finally were able to take our vacation at Hotel Mousai. Out of all the restaurants available, Hiroshi was by far the best. We went on the penultimate and last nights of our trip and wished we hadn't waited. From appetizer to entree, everything was excellent. The fish used for sashimi, maki, and nigiri was very fresh and everything tasted amazing. The wait staff (Diego Silva, Franco Israel, and especially Miguel Aley) were very attentive and our drinks were never empty. The food by itself would have been great, but the staff knocked it out of the park. Thanks, Hiroshi, for two memorable dining experiences!

Hotel Mousai is absolutely exquisite. We spent the most fantastic week ever. The staff is amazing, our butler, Humborto, was wonderful and the food in every restaurant was delicious. We cannot wait to return. We highly recommend the Ultra Suitethe in floor hot tub on the balcony is so nice! We have never enjoyed a vacation more and will be anxious to return.

"Group Trip at Garza Blanca"

Overall our trip at Garza Blanca was amazing. We stayed in the Grand Penthouse Suite in tower 5. The staff is incredible. Everyone from the restaurant staff to the cleaning staff, to the hotel reception desk, was great and extremely attentive. The resort is beautiful and overall the food and drinks are good. We chose the all-inclusive options and ate at Blanca Blue, Hiroshi, Bocado, and Noi, utilized room service, and ate at both pools. Everything was great overall. Def would recommend everyone staying, try Hiroshi as it was the best place we ate at on the resort. The Spa is amazing and would recommend to anyone who enjoys a good massage.The elephant in the room is how much the staff is going to try and sell their timeshare to you. I know plenty of reviews note this and it was something I was slightly concerned about. I can confirm that they do in fact sell you on it and are a little aggressive with their sales pitch. I do believe knowing what I know now, this is something that can be avoided if we ever visit again.My only real complaint is that they don't have any real Mexican food options at the resort. While all the food is good I just wish there were options for Mexican food, like authentic street tacos, something a little bit more than just their poolside quesadillas. With the resort being located so far from town it was hard to find a convenient Mexican food option nearby. Overall, would stay at the resort again and truly enjoyed the experience.

"Duncan Familys PV Vacation"

This is my 4th visit to Hotel Mousai since 2018. My husband and I decided to bring our 3 adult children this time, because we wanted them to experience the resort as well. We all had an amazing time as always. We did the hiking/waterfall tour, used the paddle boards and kayaks down at the beach, and went to all 5 of the restaurants. The rooftop pools and Dao are my favorites. A few things have changed, but what makes Hotel Mousai so special - the wonderful folks that work there - has remained the same. Ive traveled all over the world and never have I felt the genuine kindness and desire to please guests as I find at Mousai. Its unmatched and just makes one feel good. Our butler, Nicte; concierge Jeane-Maria; terrace server Luis; and Dao server Alberto were especially notable. I wish I had written down everyones names, because they ALL were fabulous - extremely helpful, kind, and friendly! A few notes to anyone who has not stated at the hotel:- We have stayed in an ultra corner suite, regular ultra suite, and regular suite (lower floors), and they are all beautiful. - Dao restaurant is amazing. Very quick and friendly service, and food is out of this world!- Be kind and tip. We always do the all- inclusive, but I always bring a lot of tip money, because the bellmen, the trolley drivers, the housekeepers, the front desk staff, the concierges, the butlers, and the servers all work so hard! They deserve our gratitude and what better way to show it than a tip!- If you sign up for the advanced hike, bring good shoes and wear a swimsuit. Youll be walking over uneven terrain, big boulders, wet rocks, sandy soil, and thick tree roots. Once you reach the waterfall, youll have option of jumping in, so be prepared. - Do an excursion in town, if you can. We went to the marina and did the jet skiing tour. I was terrified as I bumped and bounced over waves (we hit 74 mph) holding onto my husband for dear life, but it was absolutely exhilarating! We even saw a family of whales about 50 yards from us. Absolutely unforgettable!Im talking once-in-a-lifetime experiences at Hotel Mousai and Puerto Vallarta; experiences we were able to share with our children. And as Ive gotten older, thats whats become important to me. Making memories with the people whom I love. Thank you Mousai for another amazing, relaxing, and memorable vacation. Looking forward to coming back once tower 3 is built!

Our third visit in the past year and its still our favorite. The location, the facilities and the accommodations are 5 Star. We did not opt for All Inclusive since we dont drink much and its really pricey. Rather we ate occasionally on site and enjoyed all the fantastic restaurants in and near the Malecon. However its the staff that makes Garza Blanca special. They are so helpful and fun. We want to especially acknowledge Bonnie in Concierge Services, Tony at the Pool Bar and Rosa in Housekeeping. They make our visits special.While their prices continue to go up, we will try to return soon.

"Fabulous vacay at Garza Blanca"

First trip to Mexico. We r 69 & 70, very active. The first thing I would tell future guests of Garza Blanca is that the Mexican people are so very gracious! The staff here smile and say Hola then place their right hand over their heart in a greeting gesture. So welcoming!We stayed in building 5. We had view of bay from our spacious wrap around veranda. There is twice daily room service, with change of linens, etc.When we ordered food from room service, it arrived hot & delicious. We had a personal concierge, Jhova. She was good at her job, always available, always had accurate information. She helped make our stay effortless.Two of our favorite people were Roberto & Alex. They work at the infinity pool adjacent to our building. If u want to feel pampered, spend a few hours with them attending to your every need! Drinks, food, towels, smiles.they did it all with professionalism and flare. Thank you guys! The food is delicious, fresh, reasonably priced! We were amazed, actually, that prices werent inflated to resort standards. We felt like we got more than we paid for. Breakfast at Bocado is delightful. Great view of bay where u might see a whale breaching, while sipping coffee & spreading chocolate butter on ur roll.I think my review is getting too lengthy, so I will end by saying trips into Puerto Vallarta were safe, taxi drivers good, shopping fun, food excellentnever got sick. The spa here is excellent with the hydro therapy circuit. We loved it.Bob & Cherie, Michigan

Everything from the food to the rooms was the best Ive ever experienced. The service was amazing, ESPECIALLY Roberto and Alex. They called us family and we felt like it. We will be coming back for sure, my family takes trips to Mexico often, and from now on we will be coming back to Garza Blanca.

"Perfect Honeymoon Resort"

This place is heaven on earth! An piece of paradise on earth, and an excellent honeymoon destination! We stayed at Moussai on January 2023 to celebrate our marriage and were so pleased with our choice! This resort is the most beautiful resort I've ever stayed at, more on this below...THE RESORT:It is beautiful all around! Nested in the mountains, away from the busy downtown and other resorts, this is a great location to truly relax and unplug from the world if you choose to. The beach in this area is also much nicer than what you'll find near the malecon (downtown) area. Staying at Moussai gives you access to the facilities at Garza Blanca near the beach. The resort is pretty big! but there is a courtesy trolley that can help with getting you around.THE SUITE:We stayed at the South tower which is the newer tower of the two. The rooms are beautiful, modern, and sexy! You control everything through an iPad, and you even get an in-room sound system! As an IT pro, this was a real treat! We upgraded to the Ultra suite, which gives you higher floors and a much better view, plus premium (faster) wifi and a personal butler. Our butler Carlos Ramos was amazing to work with! I was able to reach him via text and he quickly took care of everything we needed during our one-week stay. Carlos even gathered a team to decorate our room with roses, which was a very special surprise for my wife. THE FOOD:The best resort food I've had in Vallarta. Everything was delicious and presented in an elegant style. The drinks were also on point! The in-room service and mini-bar were awesome too! The all-inclusive package is optional, but hear me out... Get it! It is soo worth it! The food is delicious, and you will get your money's worth--trust me!THE SERVICE:The service at the restaurants, lobby, and throughout the resort was superb! Everyone makes sure that you feel like the most important guest of the day, we did not want to leave Mousai! Overall, this place was so beautiful and comfortable. We had a great time at Mousai, we enjoyed the pools, our room, the restaurants, and the excellent service that the Mousai team delivered. I highly recommend Mousai to anyone looking for a place to relax in Puerto Vallarta. If you are looking for a honeymoon stay in Vallarta, this is the one! We will be back for sure!

"Bocados - lunch and dinner"

This review is specifically for Bocados steakhouse as we stayed at Hotel Mousai (on the same property).Bocados was our favorite restaurant on the property - we ate there several mornings for breakfast and also for a few dinners.The breakfast was delicious - we especially enjoyed the smoothies, the poached eggs in chile verde, and the chilequiles. Even better than the food (which was excellent) was the service. Javier, our main server, went the extra mile - he remembered our usuals and made great recommendations on the menu. He checked in on us regularly and was very friendly. He and the rest of the servers (Arturo, Mario, Alex, and Alan) were such professionals - it made breakfast at Bocados our favorite meal of the day.Dinner was also excellent. My girlfriend enjoyed the dry aged ribeye (and I split it with her!), and the short rib taco is not to be missed. Dinner service was also terrific. Martin and Erika served us for two nights and were amazing. Martin recommended the white chocolate cinnamon ice cream to go along with the lava cake (delicious) and also put cinnamon on the latte (so good). We cant wait to go back.

"Great way to bring in the New Year"

My family and I went stayed at Garza Blanca to celebrate the new year. We are members at Garza Blanca and always enjoy our visits to this wonderful place! This was our first time in the mountain towers and the experience didn't disappoint! The 2 bedroom suite was beautiful and very spacious. The new additions to the property, like Tierra Luna, are providing more activities to do onsite and make it hard to leave. Our housekeeper, Angeles, always kept our room very clean and left the best sweet treats! Alejandro was our butler for the stay and was always very nice and helpful in getting anything we needed during our stay. Garza Blanca is a magical place to stay, but the people are the best part of this resort and will be the reason why I always recommend staying here.

"Beautiful and luxurious"

This was the most fantastic resort we have ever been to! From the rooms to the staff, it is A1! Alma was our housekeeper and she did a great job, always smiling . We requested different pillows and she brought them right away. We had a 2 bedroom villa and It was awesome. Angel and Marco, who were the pool & beach attendants , along with Tito, never left us wanting anything! They remembered our names each day and they were also always happy to help. Food was fantastic, lots of choices, room service was wonderful and Fast, and the morning kayak with Michael was a day Ill never forget!! We would love to make this an annual trip! The children (ages 4&6) loved it also!

"The best way to start your day in Puerto Vallarta"

Our goal on vacation is always to start every day with a smile, and the best way to do that at Hotel Mousai Is to have breakfast at Blanca Blue and to be served by the gracious and professional team of Mario and Jorge. They will help you start your day in the very best possible way. Ron and Nina Harris.

"Another great holiday"

It had been nearly 5 years since we were last at Garza Blanca and once again we had a great vacation. The addition of TierraLuna has really added something to the resort and the Steak House, Karuma, is phenomenal. The grounds are as beautiful as ever and despite the new construction that has occurred the feeling that you are in the middle of the jungle is still there. While eating at Karuma we were fortunate enough to see a coati come strolling out of the trees!The property is being well maintained and despite not being there for 5 years there does not appear to be any deterioration of the infra structure. We were sad to find out a number of the staff who we had got to know had moved on or retired. We were pleased to see Tito is still running things in the pool area, beach and activities. He is quite a man and makes an excellent ambassador for the resort. We were also lucky to be waited upon by Ivan at the pool and on the beach. Ivan possesses the qualities that I wish all customer service employees possessed, he is caring, thoughtful, efficient and most importantly kind. My wife developed a bad back while we were there and Ivan took the time to escort/assist her down the stairs to the beach where I was on several occasions. On top of his other attributes he is also very professional and displays incredible leadership abilities and we are hoping he will still be there when we return Dec 2, 2023. A shout out also to Daniel, who manages the beach activities, another personable but profession individual. We were so glad we were able to finally return to Garza Blanca after a 5 year hiatus that before we left we booked another two week vacation there for December 2023.

"Best Xmas Vacay!"

My daughter, son, and I spent December 25, 2022-December 30, 2022 at Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta. Let me begin by saying this was my first trip to Mexico, as we tend to only vacation in the Carribean, and I will DEFINTELY return to this resort. Hotel Mousai is absolutely beautiful!! Everything from the ocean facing rooms, the wonderful views from the rooftop pool, the location, landscaping, and overall resort are simply amazing. Our room had a private hot tub on the balcony that I would enjoy in the mornings or some evenings before bed. Additionally, the staff went out of their way to make sure our every need was met. I wish I could remember the names of all of the staff who made our rooftop pool experiences so wonderful; Jennifer was always there to greet us with a smile. Eduardo, Javier, David...the list goes on. The food and drinks at Mousai and the neighboring Hotel Garza are fantastic! We ate twice at Dao and fell in love with several new dishes. Our experience in the spa was wonderful and all 3 of us had relaxing massages; the spa is on the rooftop, so the views were spectacular!!! Delta lost my daughter's luggage, and the front desk assisted in tracking down the bag, so that we could enjoy our vacation- little things like that go a long way in my book. Last, I must give a special shout out to Nabile-definitely one of my favorite servers.I will absolutely return to Hotel Mousai. I've already told some of my besties about it, and am planning on returning in April :)

"Awesome destination for couples; impeccable service; beautiful facilities!"

We are relatively experienced Travelers and have had the pleasure of staying at beautiful hotels in Mexico, Hawaii, Tahiti, Europe and throughout the United States. Our stay at Hotel Mousai ranks among the best! We purchased our trip to the Mousai for our first leisure getaway since December, 2019. We chose it based upon reviews we had read here on Trip Advisor and on other websites. We were not disappointed!First, and most importantly, the level of service that we received was absolutely second to none. All of the staff greeted us, and all other guests, With a gracious smile, and hand over their hearts; they responded to all requests willingly and with promptness. At the Mousai, we had the regularattention of our butler, Diego, who greeted us each morning with a text message inquiring how he could be of service that day. The concierge desk was helpful with recommendations and took care of reservations as needed. For clarification, Mousai offers guests the opportunity to purchase hotel services only, or an all inclusive package. To us, the package seemed to not only be a cost effective way to vacation, but also gave us the freedom from worrying about the specific cost of each and every item at each meal, not to mention our daily hangouts at the pool (more on that below). Id recommend the all inclusive package. For context: Hotel Mousai is part of a 1700 acre facility, that includes two Mousai towers (north and south), and three Garza Blanca buildings. Mousai guests have access to all the Garza Blanca facilities, including the restaurants at Garza Blanca, the pools at Garza Blanca and the beach (which is adjacent to Garza Blanca). Garza Blanca, however unlike Mousai allows childrenso the peace and quiet of Mousai will not necessarily be found at Garza Blanca! We stayed in the South Tower of Mousai, which is exquisite and only a year old. It incorporates leading edge wireless technologies and all the comfort (HVAC) and lighting, etc are controlled by a bedside IPad. The north tower is about 10 years old and I have no idea if the same technology is present in that building. Our balcony offered a beautiful view of Puerto Vallarta bay and points South. The resorts offer a number of activities, including kayaking, hiking, tai chi, etc. We took part in several of these, including a wonderful hike to a waterfall. A minor point of improvement could be to offer more staff on the hikes, as they are very popular and not necessarily as easy as they are billed to be.There are several restaurants at the facility, including a Chinese restaurant, a Japanese restaurant, an Italian restaurant, a Steakhouse, A breakfast Terrace, a Mexican restaurant. All of the food that we enjoyed was good, although our favorite was the Italian restaurant. Service at all of the restaurants was, like the rest of the resort, impeccable.At both towers, there are rooftop pools featuring incredibly beautiful vistas. The pool staff is great, and the bar staff at the rooftop pools are awesome. I had read some reviews that said the drinks were weak, but those bartenders must be gone, because all of the drinks that we imbibed during our weeklong stay were appropriately created! Perhaps our only criticism, but not a dealbreaker, is that the music played at the rooftop pools is not to our liking, and is quite loud.Overall, we were sorry to be leaving Hotel Mousai, and certainly plan on returning as soon as we can. Thank you to the staff of Hotel Mousai for making our week in Puerto Vallarta amazing!

"5 Stars! (with an asterisk)"

This resort is all around fantastic and we had a fabulous stay! The amenities and services are top-notch and the staff was extremely courteous and professional. The grounds are immaculate and the views are stunning. Our corner suite in the South Tower was spacious, expertly designed for comfort, and the views were the best from any resort we have ever visited.The 'asterisk' present in the review title is due to us not necessarily wanting the constant 5-Star structure and interactions, meaning sometimes we would have liked a more casual experience and not felt the pressure to organize everything. We are a bit more spontaneous in our actions when on vacation. So, that is on us, not really the resort. Some specifics:-- Restaurants: NOI - great Italian food and well made martinis. DAO - best Chinese food ever Aquazul - maybe better Italian food than NOI, with a beach presentation Terrace - went every morning for the buffet, good food and relaxing Rooftop South - easiest place to get quick bites & drinks-- The grounds: Spectacular! The trolley comes around often to negate the distance to some resort amenities and restaurants. -- The views: Amazing overlook of the mountains & bay!-- The staff: Very courteous and helpful.-- The room: Incredible setup with iPad controls, personal hot tub, fully stocked minibar, and yes -- the view! -- The one negative: Timeshare presentation pressure. We avoided it by constantly saying we didn't know our schedule. This type pressure could drop the star rating for some, but by dodging the interaction, it was a non-event for us.

"Gem of the Pacific coast!"

We stayed at Hotel Mousai for the third time in October 2022. Hotel Mousai continues to exceed our expectations. Each stay is better than the last! We stayed in the north tower, ultra suite on the 10th floor. The direct ocean views from the north tower are breathtaking! I could spend my entire vacation on the room balcony. Our room was quiet, comfortable, spacious and had modern amenities. Service throughout the resort was excellent. Housekeeping was prompt and detailed. The spa is pricey, but a nice treat.We were able to dine at Dao during this stay, as it was not yet open during our previous visit in Dec 2021. Dao is now our favorite restaurant for dinner at Hotel Mousai, though BocaDos is a close 2nd! The Rooftop restaurant never disappoints! We prefer to have breakfast on our room balcony or at Hiroshi so we can enjoy the ocean views. Room service was always timely and accurate. My only very minor complaint is there is no bar service at the pools until 11am. It would be nice if there was a self serve area at the pool with Bloody Marys, mimosas and bottled water for the early risers!We have been traveling to Puerto Vallarta for over 20 years and have stayed at countless hotels, resorts and condos. Hotel Mousai is the best of the best! We have already booked our next stay for July 2023. I can hardly wait to drink a Watermelon Fresh at the rooftop pool!

"Amazing!!"

This hotel is really beautiful. My husband and I brought our 16 year old daughter and 18 year old son. The service is spot on in all restaurants, pool and bars!! Our favourite restaurant was Barcados steakhouse and the pizza at NOI! We spent every afternoon at the luxury rooftop pool in the south tower. A special shout out to pool service bar waiters Antonio and Marcelino. Both these guys were fun, always had a smile for us, and had a great sense of humour. We had some laughs!! We never waited on anything from food, to drinks to towels. Antonio and Marcelino along with ALL the pool staff were exceptional!!! Thank you!! I would highly recommend this resort if you are looking for 5 star luxury service and rooms!! Weather was perfect and we saw whales ever day from our room and pool!! Amazing!!

Our stay at Garza Blanca was fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful, and made us feel welcome from the moment we landed until we departed. Roberto at the beach-side restaurant was particularly great. He was attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. Esteban and Gustavo at Bocados were excellent waiters, both provided exceptional service.The room was clean and well stocked with bottled water, it was exactly as described. We felt safe the entire stay and definitely recommend Garza Blanca to others.

"Best Rooms I have ever stayed in! Pros and Cons but, overall, but very good!!!"

We went as a family of 4. A 9 year old, 20 year old and parents. We originally booked a one bedroom ocean front, but were told we could get a 2-bedroom panorama with 3 bathrooms. Spectacular. Insane. I mean, really really nice. Hot tub on deck, washer dryer. Etc.Pros and Cons:Pros: The all inclusive (definitely purchase this ahead of time, or your any meal will cost you literally hundreds of dollars) was well worth it. The food was good, although limited to two restaurants since we have kids. Food and drink were high quality and the room service was always reliable. Same kids menu at every restaurant but also, totally fine. Kids Club- Huge shout out to Brisette and Nancy. They worked really hard (often with some real trouble making kids, not mine of course), were committed to making each activity fun and went out of their way each day. Brisette and Nancy showed love and kindness to my daughter and every day she wanted to go back. So a plus for the kids club. They even had a group dinner with all the kids so we could be at peace for one meal! God bless them. The Room- Sick. Insane. Best room I have ever stayed in. We went running around it like we were at a zoo. It's huge. Hot tub on deck. 3 bathrooms. Huge huge living area. Views to die for. I will never be able to be in a standard room again.Service- Amazing. Maid service top notch. All calls answered right away. No complaints with the service.Airport pick up- Included with our all inclusive! Fabulous. Welcome perk!Cons: I want to say that the cons are not true cons, they are just drawbacks for a family....I think if I went as a couple I would not be focused on these.Zero entertainment at night. Zilch. We are used to huge cirque de soleil shows, kids shows, audience participation, over the top talent. There is nothing here...and they have a HUGE space for it at Terra Lunda Gardens. Nothing for kids to do at night. Nothing for anyone to do at night. The carousel at Terra Luna is not free! (if they do it via kids club scheduled outing it is). If Garza wants to be a true family resort, they need nightly shows. Period. This IS a reason we will never come back as family. Location. At least 20 minutes from downtown PV. We like to get daily $20 an hour massages. Nothing near the hotel. Also, having to take a trolley back to the room if you need something, is not ok with us. If you are in the main building it is fine, but if you are in the super nice rooms at the top of the hill, you need to take the trolley. Big drawback for us.Check out day- There is nowhere to eat lunch. They cancel your all inclusive intentionally so that you cannot eat lunch. No joke. You have to pay for your lunch on the last day. No hotel does that. Not cool. There is no coffee bar, snack bar, nothing. We chose not to eat lunch because the prices are so high it wasn't worth it. The only coffee like place is in Terra Luna and it is not not included at any time in the all inclusive. It was empty any time I walked by. Makes no sense to even have it. Pool- The chairs are set up so that ONLY THE TIMESHARE PEOPLE GET SUN IN THE MORNING. Swear to god. The other seats are in the shade until at least 11am. I have no idea why they set it up to have no seats on the side where the sun rises. We had to go down to the beach to be in the sun. Many reviewers spoke of a big time share sales pitch. I cut them off as soon as it started and no one asked me again. Here is a tip that will help with that. Book your dinner reservations online, on the Garza website, before you arrive. That way when they say you need to SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT MEALS- you say, nope we are good! We booked all meals online beforehand and did not need to talk at all about it. All online bookings were honored. All in all we did love our trip to Garza, and would consider visiting the one in Cabo without the kids. I think Garza is trying hard to turn it into a family resort and sell the timeshares and the buildings not yet built (we heard the boom of exploding rocks many times), but they will fall short because of the lack of entertainment and location of the buildings on the hill. I will give the resort, and especially Kids Club Brisette and Nancy a solid A+.

"Beautiful beyond words"

This was a beautiful resort. Everything from arrival to departure was perfect. The one bedroom suite was beautiful and huge. I didnt realize it included a washer and a dryer. That was very helpful for kids. I usually do not like all inclusive resorts. But, this place was different. The restaurants and food were top notch. No complaints. Drinks were also great. This resort has the best views from every corner of the resort. The staff was amazing. Javier with security was extremely helpful. The housekeeping staff especially Alma was great. The pool servers were great. You are never lacking for anything. The kids club was great. My kids are 10 and 9 and they were occupied very well. Im afraid I forgot her name. But it starts with a B.. she was great at the kids club. Very kind and patient. We enjoyed two nights alone for dinner while the kids went to the kids club. I will be back. The most beautiful resort ever.

"This is a 5 star experience"

I don't know where Agnes stayed, but it wasn't at the same Mousai we were at. As you can see from my profile, I have stayed at great hotels around the country. This was easily the best 5-star experience to date. We spent a week there, and while I could write 1,000 words, I will just mirror the vast majority of 5 star reviews. Service was the best hotel service from before the trip (Victor and his pre-trip emails and helpful service) and throughout the stay. The staff is extraordinary- with the ability to converse in English as easily as Spanish. We love to practice our Spanish, and every staff member was willing to allow us to do so. Check in- easy- review of the facilities and restaurants- all good. One improvement though- did not know they had tennis/pickleball until the last day. Need to somehow emphasis that.Food was simply amazing. Wife had many choices for Vegan options and every restaurant server knew to discuss it when we were there. The food, presentation and service was GREAT at all restaurants on site. Extra amazing was the vegan chocolate cake at Hiroshi -yes- the Japanese restaurant had the most amazing vegan chocolate cake. I challenge anyone to tell me it isn't as good as non-vegan cake. Also- have to add that all restaurants have unique drinks, dishes and desserts, so it is never the same if you rotate through all of them. Wasn't going to single out staff since they were all great, but Miguel and Alejandra made our night so much fun. We opted for South corner suite and could not be happier. There are only 6 rooms on a floor, so it is not noisy or busy. Rooftop south pool was our hangout. Staff was incredible- attentive and fun. Service hours start at 11am, but you can go early and hang out. Most importantly, there was no scramble to get chairs! Nobody saving loungers- rarely filled up, and if you get there early or at opening, never a problem to get a place to sit. Water is heated- food was great- drinks keep coming. We met and hung out with a great set of people from all over the country. It was instant friendship. The view- well- it speaks for itself. Room was huge, modern and the Ipad controls were a great touch. Jacuzzi on our patio was completely private- so feel free to do whatever makes you happy. Morning breakfast on the patio via room service was easy to order on the Ipad and quiet. Mountains to the left, ocean to the right. Amazing. Revitalizing. Calming. Heaven. Gym was new and everything worked- lots of room and weights. Live music at night at various places was great. Trolley service around the property and to Garza Blanca. We arranged car service through Victor and got a large SUV with a nice driver. On time for both services. Housekeeping was superb- turndown service always appreciated. We definitely did not want to leave. This is an amazing place for couples to recharge, romance or just enjoy yourselves without huge crowds or rowdy 20 year olds. I can't say enough good things about the staff and property. We had the all-inclusive and tipped cash everywhere. You can charge tips to the end and pay after. This is a definite stay again despite our rule of trying not to go to the same destination twice. Thank you Mousai! Amazing vacation.

"Best Chinese Ever!"

We visited Dao Chinese restaurant in hotel mousai and we absolutely loved it! Our servers were Alejandro and Veronica and we cannot speak more highly! They treated us like we were VIP and treated us like royalty! I 10/10 recommend this restaurant and ask for Alejandro if possible! He had all the best suggestions and there wasnt a single plate we didnt enjoy. We cannot thank you enough for a great experience! Will definitely be coming back in the future!

"Looking for One Of The Best All Inclusive Experience Look No Further"

Let me start by saying I have gone to all inclusive resorts of all levels, low end, and mid level and high end. Our high end is hard rock and hotel mousai is definitely the best we have stayed at if your evaluate all aspects.Check in and check out/front desk: Natalie took great care of us in check in and Andy took great care of us on our check out and throughout our stay. Andy was always quick to greet us with a smile as we went to and from our room our room. She truly made our experience wonderful. Managers take note she is a rock star employee. Loved her friendliness and her big heart. She is a professor of customer service. She even hugged us as we left which really made us feel valued and welcomed us back asap. This girl needs a promotion. Returants: Bocados was my favorite restaurant. Steak was great quality and the staff never let our wine glass be empty. Impressed by our first night. Customer service was fantastic. Dao: Great spot. Very happy with dishes I had. Definitely wasnt disappointed. The spicy beef wonton was my favorite dish along with chef hor fun noodles. Very good cocktails.Customer service was good. Noi: This restaurant I was the most solidly buzzed at. With that said we had the ravioli and spaghetti and it was the best I've ever had. Wine was great. Servers on point gave us a great birthday celebration.Blanca Blue: Decor and customer service was awesome. It's on the beach. The dinner menu didn't connect with me at all for entree/main dishes. Soups and appetitezers weew great along with the souffle for desert. Definitely would skip this place next stay. Pool Bar: Food was fantastic. Popcorn chicken and coconut shrimp were my favorites. Customer service was perfect. Shout out to Guillermo, Jorge, and Yessenia, Antonio, Edgar, Marecelino, Jennifer, Karen at the South Pool Bar Staff. Drinks were fantastic as well. My favorite was a Double Don Julio Margarita with a side shot of gran Marnier. Rooms: Very nice decor. Bed mattress was comfortable. Pillows were OK but had a a goof variety. Housekeeping staff was amazing. Maya and her team took great care of us and kept my room perfect everytime we left. They even folded my clothes that I through on the ground. The views of the ultra mousai corner suite were amazing. I could have spent a day just in the room. Wifi premium which was included allowed us to stream Netflix whcibmade our night in the room perfect. Hammock was amazing and comfortable. Jacuzzi was perfect for the room. Somehow we accidentally drained it but it got refilled the next day. Light controls and moods were really cool. Rain shower was amazing and super comfortable. One of my favorite things of the room. Curtain and sheer control was perfect. Tablet controls of the room were just ok. Music on the tablet was disappointing and should have gave you access to Spotify or Apple music. Only slight disappointment was that we needed to request to have our beverage fridge refilled each day. Should have been done automatically. Butler Service: Our Butler Carlos was perfect. Took care of all the questions and accomdations. No need was left unmet. He was very friendly and courteous. He texted me each morning to make sure that we were doing good and if we needed anything. Beach Service at Garza Blanca was also amazing. Roberto was an amazing server who took great care of us and was very friendly. Overall I would definitely go back asap. The food, customer service and the room quality/view was top notch. I can't wait to come back.

"Beautiful Hotel and rooftop pool"

This hotel is surrounded by lush landscaping, has a little shopping area, carousel and great pools. The service was great and the time to get food and drinks was a very short wait both at the restaurants and the pool. The pool area had plenty of seating, bar and zero edge pool with great views. The rooms were nice, we had a balcony with a hammock and a hot tub. We did the all inclusive which was really worth it and the food was good. The only negative is that it is not directly on the beach. In order to get anywhere on the property you would have to take a shuttle to most of the restaurants or beach. Check in and check out was fast and easy.

"Lots of wonderful touches, but partly spoiled by the sales team."

We got a mountain studio with a great view of the ocean, a stunning room, and choice of swimming at a beautiful pool beside the hotel or at the beach a 5 minute walk away.We enjoyed the activities including hikes, kayaking and snorkeling.Thanks to these friendly and knowledgeable staff.Our concierges were helpful.Housekeeping staff kept the room in top shape.Several high-end restaurants to choose from.Now for some not so nice things, On day 1 we were pressured to attend a free breakfast followed by a 1 hour "member's update ". We met at 9:30 am for breakfast, everything all friendly, but the sales guy kept bragging about all his amazing trips, a lot more than we could afford, trying to make us feel that we could afford more. By 12:30, we are both getting a bit fed up and want to leave, and then he really starts throwing around the numbers to entice us to buy more points. When one angle doesn't click, he tries another. The squeeze is on. Finally, with the sales manager in attendance (he seemed more reasonable), we left at 1 pm, having lost almost half a day of our timeshare vacation, and leaving us frustrated. An update should have taken 30 minutes as we are already members. How can I recommend a timeshare to my friends and family if they get this annoying pressure every time they go. I did have one update a few years ago that lasted 1 hour after breakfast but all the other times left me frustrated. Why not change your sales strategy and actually just give a member's update? Then I would be be more likely to refer my friends. In any case, I want to make good use of this beautiful resort, so we'll be back, but I'll be more firm with the sales people!

"Great experience, with some suggestions"

My husband and I recently spent 5 night at this resort and had a great overall experience with the all inclusive package. I generally rate my experience based on the question, Would I come back here? And yes, I would if I could get a better price. They are competing with Hyatt and Hilton, but their pricing needs to be more attractive. Here are some cons along with the pros, so other travelers can make informed decisions.Pros: Spacious room; walk in closet, great food at all the restaurants we tried, with multiple restaurants to choose from; very good drinks; service at restaurants, poolside, etc were great on most days; very clean and well maintained grounds; activities like kayaking and hiking available right from the resort. We also appreciated that all tips were included. The hikes were great, but were intermediate for a reason. The waiver forms we had to sign should have been an indicator too. Do wear your wet shoes for the "river and waterfall" hike, and take your swimsuit if you want to swim the waterfall area. The "mountain" hike has quite a bit of uphill and some rock climbing involved. Cons: Our first floor with a great ocean view, didn't have many of the resort (or even hotel amenities.) The coffee service was just a kettle and coffee bags, There were no sugar, tea bags, or creamers. They had one nightstand between the double beds, but it was so far from each bed that you had to reach out at night to grab water, etc. There was no clock in the room. On our first night, there was a wedding party, so it was very loud and noisy. Even though they had signs posted, every night there were noisy guests who would walk past our room around 1-2 am and wake us up.The bathroom had no hooks or towel racks, which we brought to the attention of the front desk. They said they'd send a coat rack, but it never arrived. All the bathroom had was bottles of lotion, shampoo, and conditioner, but not of any brand that I recognized. So don't expect any luxury items. No shower caps or any other personal care items that go with a resort feel. Our sliding door to the patio didn't lock, so we had to ask to get it fixed. It really felt like no one had used our room in a while. The patio/balcony was a shared one with the adjoining room. Fortunately for us, no one checked into that room.Room service: was very slow. we canceled our order multiple times as it took so long.Check in and concierge: was underwhelming. Many resorts we've been to offer a small welcome drink of some sort or a wet towel to make you feel welcome, but not here. The concierge service was more of a sales/commission pitch, rather than someone trying to make our stay better. They try to drum up more sales by pushing their spa services, and property sales presentations. No thank you!Location is far out from the main town and their beach is very small. Though we didn't have much problem getting Uber rides to go to the boardwalk area, etc. They only have one smallish swimming pool, as the second infinity pool is for "Members only". The hotel has only one main restaurant, Blanca Azul, on their premises, along with a lunch cafe next to the pool. All their other restaurants are up the hill, across the street, in their Hotel Mousai grounds. They have free shuttles running back and forth, but we ended up walking to these restaurants, just to get an opportunity to walk. I wish they had more water sports offered - like kayaks available throughout the day, paid banana boat and jet ski opportunities, as it's a real challenge to get any physical activity done. Staff we want to recognize: All their bar and restaurant staff provided great service.Their bar tenders, hostesses, waiters were very good. Tiffany, our housekeeper, did a great job with our room every day. Tito, our hiking guide was wonderful and was also at the poolside on some days to give us great service, and made us feel like valued customers. Angel was a very attentive staff member and hiking guide. The guide for the river and falls guide was excellent too, but I didn't catch his name. The saxophone player at the restaurants was amazing and she added to our dining experience.

"A Beautiful, Delicious Escape"

THE GREAT- Beautiful views, wonderful weather, very serene place to spend some time unwinding- Service. All of our waiters and hostesses were kind and friendly and helpful. They made the stay special and we loved running having the same server multiple times. SHOUT OUT TO: Mario, Arturo, Giovani, and Alan at Bocados Breakfast service! - Dinner. Lots of options, a variety of cuisines, really thoughtfully curated with something for everyone and so SO tasty. I tried a number of things I wouldn't normally and was never let down! We would rank the restaurants: Bocados (Steak House), Blanca Blue (Mexican), Hiroshoi (Japanese), Aquazul (Italian literally served on the beach)- Housekeeping. They were quick and friendly and thorough. We had them turndown the room every day because it was nice coming back from the beach or pool to a freshly made bed and clean smell. Definitely tip these folks they rule. - The Room. We stayed in the Junior Panoramic Suite and we loved it. A great amount of space, an outdoor space with a hammock, very comfortable bed. A perfect paradise to escape paradise. - The Spa. We both had one of the best massages of our lives. Definitely top 3, maybe even Top 2 level massages. They're a bit pricey but they are worth it. There's complimentary hydrotherapy before, and we didn't LOVE that, but I also hate both being hot and being cold.- TierraLuna. It was this nice little shopping area you take the trolley to. It was very pretty and fairly empty and just a nice place to walk around, grab a little lunch and ride the carousel. It's an upscale kind of tiny village, but there's plenty of seating. I read and my husband took a nice peaceful nap. THE FINE- Breakfast. It's the same every day, every restaurant. In the Mexican Restaurant off the lobby there's an elaborate buffet (lots of options, none executed particularly well). And then the menu breakfast is decent, good french toast, steak and eggs, eggs in general and a great assortment of fresh cut fruit. But bacon, sausage, potatoes all very meh. My husband did love the Salmon Benedict and Canadian Benedict though!- Activities. There weren't a ton. But to be fair, we knew that, and we were fine with that. We really came to do nothing. One day we went on a hike led by the hotel to a waterfall. It was for all ages, but there was definitely a little more scrambling than I expected. Definitely not just a walk. And then there's plenty to do if you leave the resort. We went to the boardwalk in the city center and walked around to the flea market. People pitched ATVs and ziplines but that was more activity than we were interested in. THE BAD- Concierge will hound you about signing up to do a timeshare presentation. And if you say "No." they'll say, "But why?" and if you say "You're not interested in owning a timeshare." they'll say, "Oh, it's not a timeshare. It's totally different. You should do it." And you'll say "No thanks" as politely as you can and then they will say if we don't sign up they won't hit their numbers at work and they'll get in trouble and they really need this and you're their last hope and really you don't have a good reason to not go, so you should just go. And you do that same conversation about 4-5 times your week long stay and it feels predatory and like bad business practice, but you literally HAVE to speak to your concierge so they can make you dinner reservations. We appreciate that our concierge did make our reservations (apparently some drop you if you say no to the presentation). You will also receive phone calls from the concierge desk (not your assigned concierge) also pushing the "VIP Package" a.k.a timeshare presentation. - Room Service. We ordered room service about 4 times in our stay and i don't know who's manning the room service kitchen, but it's definitely not who's running the lunch/dinner kitchen. The room service pizza was absymal (but hey it's Mexico, that's on me, I figured), the oatmeal was so so sad, BUT the french fries were solid. Order the french fries.

Silvias housekeeping was beyond incredible. Our three night stay was made extra relaxing by her supreme attention to detail. Each evening we would return to the room with all toiletries and fridge well stocked, crips white sheets perfectly pressed and made on the bed, towels stocked, and on one occasion our laundry service was wrapped in tissue paper (folded underwear and socks) and tied with a bow. She also made paper flowers and left us a super cute towel elephant! See pics. It was so nice to return to a sparkling clean and well kept room every night. Silvia is a rockstar!!

"PARADISE!!"

We were so blown away by this resort after our first visit here last year, that we said we were going to come back again this year. And we did! We spent one week again, this time the second week of November, and we had another AMAZING vacation. Every day, from the moment the sun rose until it set, there was not a cloud in the sky, just blue skies with temps in the mid 80s. Simply PARADISE! We stayed in Tower 4, the two bedroom/three bathroom Panorama Suite, on the 11th floor. OMGthe views were breathtaking from the balcony, whether just standing there and looking out, swinging in the hammock, or relaxing in the hot tub.Alex was our waiter almost every day at the pool, and always came over to us whenever we needed food or another drink. The pool service was IMPECCABLE!We took the Kayak tour to Los Arcos with Super Sexy Diego and had a great time. He made the trip a lot of fun with his great personality. The water was so clear the entire way kayaking. We snorkeled once we got to the arches, and saw many fish in the clear water.We did the Advanced Hike, which was a total of 2.2 miles. The hike started by climbing up the mountain, and by the time we got to our first resting point, everyone was out of breath and sweating SO much! But, it felt good! Mike was our guide, and his great, funny personality, made the hike very enjoyable. The hike ended down at the waterfall, where we got to go in the cold water, which felt só good!Mike was also our concierge at the pool, and would always come over to our chairs to check on us if we needed anything, and answered any questions that we had. Mike even made my birthday extra special, by giving me a chocolate candy bar!David was our waiter at DAO, and he was exceptional. His service was impeccable. He would ask us if he could take our plate when we were done eating, and then hed thank us when he took it!A few weeks before our trip, I spoke on the phone with Lupita, who made our dinner reservations for each night at each of the six restaurants. She spent a lot of time with me on the phone to make seven dinner reservations for the exact dates and times that I wanted. I told her that hopefully I would get to meet her during our week at Garza Blanca, because I wanted to thank her in person for all that she did. Our first day at breakfast at Blanca Blue, the hostess who greeted us wasLupita! And, she remembered me! I needed to change around a few of the dinner reservations, and while we were eating breakfast the first day, she took care of that for us. Each day after that when we came down for breakfast, she greeted us by name, remembered our room number, and remembered the same outdoor table to seat us at! The day of my birthday, Lupita had a piece of chocolate cake brought to our table, and the staff came over to sing Happy Birthday to me!In addition, on my birthday, chocolate cake was brought to me at the pool, and at Bocados for dinner, both with Happy Birthday written on the plate in chocolate. At breakfast at Blanca Blue on our last day at the resort, Lupita had a dessert plate brought over to our table, with Have a nice trip written on the plate. Lupita made our vacation very special, along with everyone else at Garza Blanca who went above and beyond, and once again, we cant wait to go back!

"Expert service, excellent food"

Luis and Veronica at DAO restaurant in Hotel Mousai gave outstanding service. He started by telling us he was going to take great care of us tonite-and then did just that. They were both knowledgeable of ingredients, set the table carefully, brought the correct food and had personality without making themselves the main dish. Food was excellent and interesting. Decor worth visiting. Well be back

We had a wonderful time at the Garza Blanca for a wedding! We stayed for a week and ate breakfast every day at Bocados and it was absolutely amazing! The view, the food, the drinks, the staff. Giovani was our server almost every day and treated us with kindness and care each time. Thank you for such a wonderful morning every day!

"Semi-remote PV resort"

Wonderful resort/amazing staff/multiple restaurants with excellent food and variety. The biggest downside to staying here is its relative isolation Actually a 30 minute taxi ride from the nearest supermarket and 15 to 20 minutes from the nearest restaurant not on site.

"Amazing honeymoon experience, will return soon!"

My wife and I were fortunate to stay at Hotel Mousai - South Tower for 8 days during our honeymoon. We had booked an Ultra Corner Suite through Costco Travel and were upgraded at no charge to a Master Suite, which I greatly appreciated. I think we were lucky since we went in the off-season so they had the availability. The Master Suite is absolutely stunning--it is very large with amazing views, a beautiful terrace with a plunge pool overlooking the jungle and ocean, the best bidet I've ever experienced, comes with a fully stocked bar (whiskey, vodka, tequila, beer, and mixers) and is really the nicest hotel room I have been in. The one complaint about the room itself is that you can hear the music from rooftop pool at night. It isn't horrible, but if you are a light sleeper I would recommend not staying on the 12th floor (which is the top level). What really made the hotel room exceed our expectations was Ernesto, the butler that helped us throughout our stay. Ernesto is extremely kind, courteous, friendly, and welcoming. He constantly made sure we were satisfied, but was in no way overbearing. He genuinely seemed to have our best interests in mind and we will ask for his services the next time we stay at Hotel Mousai.We really enjoyed the food at the various restaurants at Hotel Mousai--none of the places reminded us of 'cruise' food that I have experienced at other resorts. The rooftop pool at the South Tower had an amazing view of the ocean and jungle, it was never overcrowded, did not allow for children (which is a huge positive for us), and the food and drinks were exceptional. Really, the food at the rooftop pool was some of the best food we had our entire stay. What really made our visits to the pool great was the staff, who were all very kind, fun to speak with, and exceptional at ensuring all of our needs were met. Although everyone we interacted with at the pool was fantastic, Ricardo deserves a special shout out. He was extremely friendly, constantly checked up on us even when he wasn't our assigned server, and really made us feel like we had a friend at the Hotel. Another honorable mention includes Victoria (manager I believe) who helped resolve a minor issue that came up towards the end of the stay.Our favorite restaurant was Hiroshi, the Japanese restaurant, which had great quality sushi and overall good food. This restaurant probably had the best serving experience of our entire stay (excluding Ricardo who I mentioned above), thanks to Alejandra and Diego Silva. They both provided excellent recommendations, were very friendly, made sure our needs were met, and really exceeded our expectations. They both really appeared to enjoy their jobs and really contributed to a positive experience. Alejandra was our only female restaurant server during our stay and she was amazing, Hotel Mousai should seek to hire more female servers throughout the resort.Our least favorite restaurant was probably Bocados, the steakhouse. The food wasn't bad, but compared to the other places we ate, it just wasn't very special. I didn't think the steak was the best quality, I didn't enjoy how they served the baked potato, and the fries weren't nearly as good as the ones served at the pool.We loved eating breakfast at the Terrace at Mousai North. Luis Gabriel Verduzco was our server and he helped make sure we were comfortable, we appreciated his hospitality!The Spa was very nice. We really enjoyed Jesus, the butler for the spa who shows you around during the one-hour hydrotherapy session. He was very kind and welcoming. The massage therapists were also excellent--we were lucky to have Sayra and Rosario for a couples massage, then Andrea and Vividiana for single massages. All four provided excellent pressure, made sure we were comfortable and relaxed, and overall contributed to a great spa experience. My one complaint would be that the Spa area seems a little rushed--it doesn't feel like you can just hang out at the spa all day and do your own thing. Instead, it seems like you have access to it for an hour and have to divide your time in the sauna, steam room, jacuzzi etc. for 5-10 minutes at a time. I would recommend they create an additional spa area that is more traditional and allows guests to lounge around and experience the different facilities at their own pace.One of the best aspects of staying at Hotel Mousai are the activities provided for free with the stay. We did a Kayaking and Snorkeling tour, guided by Diego (different than the one above), who was incredibly knowledgeable about the local environment, friendly, funny, and contributed to an amazing experience. We also did a hiking tour to a waterfall with Mike who was also very friendly, funny, ensured our safety, and overall contributed to an amazing time. Mike surprised our group by memorizing everyone's names (about 10 guests total) and making sure we were having a great time on our hike.I didn't get all of their names, but I must also thank all of the housekeeping staff who assisted us during our stay, especially Angelica and Ana Lopez. They left our room impeccable and there was never any concern about something going missing or being misplaced. The only complaint I have is that I received a call from someone at the front desk I believe at approximately 10:30 p.m. at night, after my wife and I had already gone to sleep. The call was because we had not yet signed a receipt for chocolate covered strawberries that were delivered to our room a couple hours earlier when we were out to dinner. I did not appreciate receiving a call so late at night, especially for something that only cost $20. When I spoke to Ernesto about this the next day, he sincerely apologized and accommodated us. In hindsight, this wasn't a huge deal, but certainly something that the front desk or whichever department called us could fix moving forward. Finally, one thing we did, was the sales tour for the residence club that Garza Blanca offered. We actually ended up signing up because we really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Mousai, which I contribute to the staff mentioned above and many others who we did not get the name of. Although we will wait and see on whether the residence club is a good deal or if it is just another timeshare that people want to get out of, we will provide another review after our next stay and provide additional details on the residence club program itself. Andres has helped us with the presentation and has helped answer all of our questions about the program since leaving the resort.Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Mousai and my wife and I most certainly plan to stay there again in the future.

"Breathtaking views with unbeatable service"

By FAR the nicest and cleanest place Ive ever stayed. The staff was unbelievably friendly/accommodating and there was always something fun to do during our stay. Marco went above and beyond in making our stay special. He did everything from lead us on a waterfall hike to serving us on the beach. Oswaldo was also a tour guide that was very knowledgeable and made the hike very special! Gustavo at the front desk and Gustavo the bellhop were both incredibly helpful and friendly. David G at Dao(Chinese restaurant on the property) made us feel like family and served some of the best Chinese food Ive ever had. Diegos kayaking and snorkeling tour was so much fun! Eduardo served refreshing drinks/smiles at the pool. Christian served delicious vegan omelets and fresh juice with unbelievable views.We visited during the day of the dead celebration and the themed trolley and party they had was incredible! The accommodations/views/food and drinks did not let us down one bit, but the staff truly makes this place something special. PS, Im a clean freak and our room was cleaner than my house. They came 2x a day to clean,mop,etc.

My 5th time here this year!! Sergio, the pool concierge with such a bright welcome. All i can do was smile as he was so helpful and caring. Made me feel extremely calm. As you know, traveling can get you cranky but once you Step foot into the Garza Blanca you feel immediately tranquillo (relaxation). Jaime from the front desk as well. Very welcoming. The staff are extremely hardworking to make sure your experience at the Garza Blanca is the best. You always leave the hotel almost sad becuase you know its the best place in the world.

"Fourth Great Experience"

This was our fourth year at Hotel Mousai! Again an amazing experience! First off of if you get a butler Carlos is the only way to go!! He is amazing! Second so happy that Mateo got promoted to the pool staff! He is amazing!! We enjoyed him at breakfast the previous years and even better at he pool! So sad Ignacio on our trip was only at the north tower but went to say hi and he was amazing as always! Vanessa bartender just started and wow what a great hire! Keep her!! So sad to see Alan had leftget him back! There was a boy at Hiroshi. He has braces and Im so mad I cant remember his name. He rembered us from years prior and made the night amazing! Juan at night at the rooftop bar is one of my new favs!! Alonso, Gerardo and Dylan also did everything they could take make our experience amazing!! My only two suggestions for improvementbreakfast staff is way too slow. With both towers going to the one spot for breakfast staffing is the same and your are not given the same service. The manager at NOI need to be replaced. I got a stomach bug one evening when we had tried to have dinner. I went upstairs my husband stayed at the bar. They would not let him order at the bar because he wanted something other than pizza. They also wouldnt let him get anything to go. He then had to come upstairs and wait an hour for room service. I get its a true restaurant but as an all inclusive guest you should give the guest anything and everything they want. Eating at the bar or getting something to take upstairs is an extremely small request. Why upset the guest instead of just giving what they ask?

I must say my stay at Garza Blanca was magical! The entire staff was great. Especially our housekeeper Natividad!!! We stayed in the 2 bedroom panoramic room and it was beautiful. The hot tub with the views from our room were so relaxing. For an all inclusive I was nervous about the food because I traveled with my mom and 13 yr old daughter. We were celebrating my daughters birthday and she loved all of the food as did I. I cant wait to go back.

We recently stayed at the Garza Blanca as an all-inclusive guest for 4 days and 3 nights and the entire experience was fantastic. From the time that we checked in until the end of our trip, the staff was attentive, friendly, and professional beyond compare. One highlight to share was our poolside experience with our waiter Roberto. It felt like we had a personal poolside attendant and were never left waiting for food or drinks. Additionally, he clearly recognized our party, able to serve us across the large pool area.Kudos to the staff at the Garza! We will definitely be back.

"The good, the bad, the honest"

We had an Ultra Mousai Corner Suite in the North Tower for the first half of our trip, and then switched to the same in the South Tower to get the best of both worlds for our first time. North Tower-preferred this rooftop pool to the south tower, as it had a more mature vibe (we are in our 40s) and was more relaxed.-our butler was MIA for the first two days, and we were told he was off. Mousai should only assign butlers to rooms if they are working during the guests stay, and if not assign an alternate. We were approached several times by other butlers in the hallway, but none could assist us-Amazing full ocean view from the balcony-No iPad charger in the room. If it weren't for our personal chargers, we would have completely lost power-Because we had no butler for the first couple of days, we had to figure out the controls ourselves-Jacuzzi never worked Temperature stayed at 84 degrees and no warmer. ! Maintenance came three (yes 3) times and attempted to fix. Finally on the day we were leaving the jacuzzi heated up. -When our butler finally arrived, we let him know we did not receive the hat, beach bag, or blanket/shawl as shown on numerous youtube videos. The response was that they are short on amenities-Natalie at the front desk is AMAZING! She was very responsive and accommodating when we mentioned the concerns and called maintenance or other assistance promptly despite the fact that our butler and concierge weren't of assistance-Hiroshi is by far the best restaurantSouth Tower-Newer tower and more contemporary feel -iPad controls much more intuitive in this room-Loved the addition of the self cleaning/freshening feature on the toilets in this tower-Loved the doorbell, and the privacy light option for the front door-views are more jungle focused-Returned to the room after dinner on our last night and the jacuzzi was completely drained! It was late and because we were checking out the next day, we didn't press the issue, however we were looking forward to soaking on our last night Overall, we definitely will return. While the amenities are five diamond, the accommodations are four diamond at best. Maintenance and management needs to regularly check the rooms to make sure that all amenities promised are indeed in working order. As far as the food goes, Hiroshi is number one for dinner. Blanca Blue breakfast buffet is the best bet. I do not recommend Dao. Noi is decent Italian food, and my husband enjoyed the Bocado steak, the other options for non steak were unimpressive. The rooftop pool for lunch is great, they actually have quite a few delicious options

Writing this review only to celebrate Dao Chinese restaurant at Mousai and our servers Alex Diaz and Ariana. This is the newest restaurant in Hotel Mousai and has the least amount of reviews and raves, but it blew our expectations out of the water. By far the fastest food service, drinks were excellent, and the food selection is more vast than all of the other restaurants--and authentic! Don't skip this one--it's truly a high-end restaurant with excellent service.

"Thanks to all the staff that made for a good trip. "

Most of the trip comes down to the food. We ate at the steakhouse for dinner 2x during our stay, so we tasted about half of the menu items. For the apps the street taco and the mussels stand out. The leek soup is also very good. For the entrees the lamb was excellent as were the blue cheese mashed that accompanied the pork chop. At Blue the duck mole was memorially good. Breakfast was by far best meal of the day, so many good options.As for service, the morning staff at Bacardis were all very friendly and helpful. It was so nice to have a non-water option with the hikes. While the easier hike was advertised as moderate, it is only 1 mile, but quite steep at places and slick. For anything more we would have needed proper hiking shoes. Tito made it a memorable activity for all.

"Tropical Paradise"

We had an amazing time at Garza Blanca. All the staff was exceptional. Gloria greeted us at our arrival and offered us a free upgrade to our room. The room was exceptional and the view was amazing. Moses and Juan were exceptional at the pool bar and always were fast at getting whatever we wanted. Brenda and Mario made our last day amazing at breakfast by writing "Have a nice trip family Sullivan", which made it more special. Yolanda from housekeeping made our stay enjoyable by always having our room clean and getting us anything we needed. I know I'm missing people, but everyone was exceptional.

"Luxurious Home Away from Home"

This was our 4th time at Garza Blanca and we had an amazing experience as always, especially when we had dinner at Bocados Steak House. We were greeted by Rosalio who also happened to be our waiter this time and when we were here last time. The food was awesome as always, but the service and attention to detail by Rosalio and his team was exceptional. They even wrote on the dessert platter Welcome Home, since its been 2 years since we have been back to Garza Blanca. If you want to have a luxurious vacation with warm and welcoming people that will take care of you, Garza Blanca and El Mousai are unbeatable.

"Outstanding Property in Tropical Setting"

My wife and I visited the property Aug 20th for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our room, panoramic suite, was spectacular along with housekeeping and room service. We dined at the steakhouse and Blanca Blue as well as pool side on mountain. All staff were outstanding, especially Xavier and his team at Bocados. Our only disappointment was Hiroshi. When we arrived, we found it unbearably hot, apparently the A/C was out. The host was not very accommodating when we requested outside dinning, which was cooler than inside. We elected to leave and didnt find the host very apologetic (our only negative experience with a staff member). We were pleased with the beer and wine selection and while the liquor selection was fine, we found the mixed drinks week and lacking flavor. Of note, if you are seeking a nice beach getaway, this may not be for you. Overall, excellent facilities, great food and outstanding staff. Will return.

The resort is beautiful and our room was comfortable and very clean. We loved all the restaurants. The chef noodles at Dao and sushi rolls at Hiroshi were delicious! We had stellar service from the waitstaff and everyone that worked at the resort. Our favorite was the rooftop pool. That view is incredible!

"Feel tranquil like you're staying in Costa Rica @ Hotel Mousai in Puerto Vallarta"

My wife and I wanted to have a quiet and peaceful vacation and we couldn't be happier that we had choosen Hotel Mousai for our 4-nights stay. The room is beautiful and modern with lights/drapes/music on/off at a touch of a button. We stayed on the South Tower (bldg 7) and all rooms have the view of the greenery of the mountains and the ocean. There's no direct access from our building but there's a trolley that will take you to Garza Blanca where you can swim at the beach and to the TierraLuna Gardens where you can shop.Best of all, Mr. Diego Mora, our butler, has assisted in all of our needs and he made sure our stay is pleasant all the way to the minute we were leaving the hotel.

"Solid good experience"

Beautiful hotel. Room is posh and complimentary toiletries provided is a nice touch. Staff at restaurants were five stars all the way. Shout out to Giovani and Juan. Carlos is an excellent butler who checked in twice a day. He answered all questions with patience and professionalism. Infinity pool on north tower is breathtaking and service is excellent. The only negatives were the activities program listed a live DJ but in actuality, there was no DJ and staff seemed unaware of what was advertised . The larger negative was the experience upon arrival with the concierge who pushed aggressively the timeshare presentation. Despite declining, the next day, another concierge approached us and aggressively tried to push the presentation again and kept asking why we did not want to attend it . This pushy behavior unfortunately was so unpleasant and affected our overall experience. It made us want to avoid service by the concierges.

"FULL HONEST REVIEW"

My wife and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary at Mousai "The Suite" we stayed in was the Ultra Mousai Corner Suite and the views are unmatched. The Suite came with a Bulter named Ernesto. Ernesto went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was fantastic. He made dinner reservations, taxis reservations, etc. We did not have to lift a finger or have a worry thanks to him. I want to give a special thanks to him for making our stay. Definitely splurge on the Ultra Mousai corner suite and you will not be disappointed. The only negative is that the last two nights it seemed as if housekeeping got a bit tired and left essentials out the room such as face towels but other than that it was perfect. "The Food" we ate at DOA, Bacados, Banca Blue, the Roof Top, and Room Service. I'll start by saying nothing that we ate was nasty. Our favorite restaurant was Bacados. I will say that the restaurants at Garza Blanca did lack the outstanding service we received at Mousai. I feel that for the extra money for the Ultra Suite we should have the best table however that was not the case our last two nights dinning at Banca Blue and Bacados which was a disappointment. We felt ignored by the staff which was upsetting but we did not let it ruin our trip " The Roof Top" Mousai truly outdid themselves with the Rooftop pool. Everything about it is amazing. Our server JUAN had the best customer service hands down. Some people are nice because it's their job. He was amazing, personable, and went above and beyond because he truly cares! I am not sure why he is not a butler because the service he gave was hands down the best we received our entire stay. JUAN TRULY WARMED OUR HEARTS, he is passionate about the guest and because of him we will be returning. THANK YOU JUAN !!!

"A few hiccups but would return"

Our arrival to the hotel started off a little rocky. We booked an ultra suite in the North tower. First, the push to talk to the activities concierge about a welcome package is annoying. The welcome package is really a way for the hotel to try to sell you tours and to try to get you to listen to their timeshare spiel. That is not what we expect at a five diamond resort. Second, we arrived to our room on the seventh floor and it was in total disrepair. The hot tub had dirty water in it and spewed water all over the balcony when it was turned on. The room smelled stale like it had not been used in awhile and was dusty. Also the room had water running out of the air conditioning vent. Mirror was also broken in the bathroom. We immediately called down to the front desk and asked to be moved. The maintenance person arrived to repair the hot tub but it wasnt until the second day that we were moved to another ultra suite on the eighth floor. The second room was very nice and had updated decor. Our butler Diego took care of moving all of our stuff to the new room. The food at the resort was excellent. We found the service at the restaurants and overall at the resort to be five diamond worthy. We were really impressed with rooftop pool menu, which was expansive. Lots of options. The food was always hot and served with a smile by the staff. We got exceptional service on the north rooftop pool from Mateo, Juan, and others. We also ate at Karuma. It was not included in our all inclusive package, but the atmosphere and service was exceptional. My husband had a great steak and I hade a fish dish. Both were very good. The Tierra Luna area where the restaurant is located is beautiful. Unique shops and worth experiencing the area. The hotel could improve its checkout process. The bills are in Spanish and the way charges are done is confusing. Further, when we were checking the charges we noticed that they had not given us our full resort credit and they had charged us for the broken mirror in our first room. When we told them that the mirror was already broken when we arrived the front desk person asked us, why didnt we report it. We reminded him that our first room was in total disrepair and not just the mirror and that we had report the state of the room as soon as we arrived!!!! We had to ask to see his supervisor to get the mirror removed from our bill and to get our full resort credit. Ismerelda, the supervisor, took care of removing the mirror and providing us with our full resort credit, with grace and professionalism, unlike the person at the front desk. Overall, the experience was good , with a couple of hiccups. Would return. Great couples retreat.

"A Truly Exceptional Experience"

We booked an all inclusive suite in Mosai South and when we walked into the suite our jaws dropped, it was stunning. The balcony view is spectacular, complete with a huge hammock, comfortable chairs and our own jacuzzi tub. The room was incredibly spacious, huge bathroom and shower, plenty of closet space. We really loved how much technology was incorporated. an iPad controlled everything from curtain movement to integrated sound system with a ton of music choices. Room service was always efficient and timely. The food was outstanding except one meal. We especially enjoyed the rooftop pool, fantastic food and drinks with superb service. Standout service was provided by Jovana (our main concierge) as well as Victoria (rooftop pool concierge), Angel, Antonio, Memo, Marcelino, Alex and Gerardo at the South Tower Rooftop pool. A truly amazing experience, we cannot wait to go back. Lastly, the spa. Holy cow, that was fantastic! Hydrotherapy plus massage is a must.

They are loving, sweet, caring and great with communication. Our kids couldn't have been in better hands and they loved their time with them.

Do keep in mind that if your room is located in tower 4 or 5 you'll have about a 5 minute walk or have to wait for the shuttle to take you down to the beach, but you'll have access to more of the adult only restaurants, and have your own pool as well.

Pro tip, add tequila to the mocktail Di Gusto Turmeric and you wont be disappointed. Lastly, the head Chef Francesco was a great host and often checked up. It was a wonderful nightcap to celebration weekend! P.S. order the apple strudel. It will be fun.

"Amazing hotel Mousai experience"

Have been few time to Puerto Vallarta however Hotel Mousia is another level. The hotel, rooms, food and service is amazing. We had a minor hiccup at checkin however I already forgot that due to all other benefits.Roof top at North is definitely where you want to spend your time and especially ask for Diego. He will be attending you with delight and recommend best foods and drinks.Thanks Mousai tram for such great experience. Will definitely be back.

The best in the business. Noi in Mousai South is the best bartending experience. From the states you expect your drinks to taste resort quality. But they go above and beyond with making them truly taste mixology quality. Better drinks than I have in America. Truly the best. Thank you.

"Honeymoon Trip of a Lifetime (Long Review)"

We just came back from a 2-week honeymoon stay at Hotel Mousai and wanted to share our amazing experience with others:First off, Hotel Mousai was not our first choice in terms of a place to stay for our honeymoon as we had already booked an Air BnB for the same amount of time but quickly found out it wasnt going to be the honeymoon experience we had wanted. The Air BnB itself was beautiful but it was too noisy and not relaxing having construction and noisy tenants next door so we set out to find the best hotel we could find and came across Hotel Mousai.It is part of the Garza Blanca chain of hotels owned by Tafer Group which is a Mexican-owned corporation (which we liked). It was definitely on the more expensive side for us compared to anything we had previously done but figured it was worth it for our once-in-a-lifetime trip. The hotel and staff did not disappoint us for the entire 2 weeks we were there. Everything was exceptional from the décor, the cuisine, and service. The hotel is very well constructed in terms of the attention to detail in the rooms and the artistic vibe that is present throughout the entire hotel. The ONLY complaint we had was that the room would make a crunching sound (similar to a plastic water bottle popping) when the sun would come out and hit the exterior of the building. It must have had something to do with the construction material and the temperature fluctuations, but it was quite annoying and, at times, made it difficult to rest. Everything else was fantastic about the building.We thought the food was excellent as well. Our favourite restaurant was Bocados Steakhouse because of the mussels and lamb (unbelievably tasty) as we did not try the steak there. For steak, we went slightly offsite (at Tierra Luna) to the paid restaurant called Karuma and we enjoyed a massive tomahawk steak which was delicious. The views and drinks are also amazing from there! We also really enjoyed the Japanese restaurant called Hiroshi as they had a beautiful view from the balcony, great drinks, and some amazing sushi. We like the Chinese restaurant (DAO), and the Italian (NOI) as well, but only ate there once each so we did not get as much of a taste for the items but had a great time and enjoyed the staff at both of them. Our least favourite place was the Mexican restaurant (Blanca Blue) as the food was not as nice or fancy as the other places, so we only went there once for dinner. The breakfast buffet there was amazing though and the handmade crepes and omelettes were delicious.One of our favourite parts of our stay here, however, was the amazing staff that we got to meet and know over our 2 weeks stay. Literally, everyone on site was friendly, warm, and helpful. They made you feel important and made it like you were home. If we could thank everyone individually we would but the list would be massive, so we have a few particular people that we want to note:The first is Carlos who was our butler for the entire time. Carlos is incredibly helpful, professional, and kind. He helped me with several things for my wife and was always available within a moments notice if we needed anything. I am certain the other butlers are just as good, but I highly recommend asking for Carlos as he made our trip that much easier and special. The guy is a rockstar at his job!The next people we would like to thank work at the concierge desk Jaaziel and Karen. Jaaziel was very friendly and personable with us from the day we arrived. He helped us with organizing things and giving suggestions of where to go around town. I enjoyed laughing with him and his personality made him a pleasure to have around us every day. We looked forward to seeing his smile in the mornings! Karen was also very kind and professional in her role. She was always available to help with whatever we needed and would go the extra mile to do so. We got to know them both throughout our stay here and can say they are very lovely human beings in general and we would visit again just to see them.Since we stayed in the South Tower, the restaurant in our lobby was NOI which is the Italian one. Almost every evening the piano player, Adel, would play beautiful music for everyone eating there and anyone in the lobby. He made the atmosphere feel classy, romantic, and elegant. The bar staff at the lobby bar were amazing and made some of the best cocktails we had our entire trip. Eriberto and the rest of the bartenders know their drinks and you can tell they appreciate their craft. Their attention to detail when making cocktails is excellent. I highly recommend getting a Smoked Old Fashioned from there or any one of their cocktails on the list. Even their mocktails were delicious! Jerry from NOI was also excellent and a great server and host to us. We had some great chats about whiskey and brandy, and he went above and beyond to make our even enjoyable.Mario, Javier, and Noemi at Bocados were also amazing and took great care of us every time we visited the restaurant and made our experience more than enjoyable.A few other mentions from the restaurants would be David and Vero from DAO which was the Chinese restaurant what a pleasant experience it was to have them there.Last, but certainly not least, all the staff on the rooftop bars were amazing. Stephanie was in South Tower almost every day we visited and would greet us with a smile. Alan was at South and then moved to North Tower but was a great guy who learned our names after only meeting for the first time. Really great team up there. There are many others from the team including hosts and servers, but we do not have everyones names unfortunately but would recommend all of them for excellent service.After all was said and done, we had an incredible trip to Puerto Vallarta and Hotel Mousai was a large part of that. It was the perfect place for a honeymoon trip as it was adults-only (in Hotel Mousai, not all of Garza Blanca), unbelievably fancy, and brought us peace and quiet throughout our stay. Thank you to everyone there that made it a trip of a lifetime for both of us.

Like to take Katie in Lobby , Roof Top staff - Edgar, Carlos, Ignacio, Sthepany, Alejandro and Ramon..

"Excellent Service!"

Hubby and I ate dinner at NOI. The restaurant is beautiful, clean and comfortable. The staff are welcoming, friendly and very patient. So me and hubby's idea of Italian cuisine is limited to New York Italian food. Chicken or Eggplant Parmigian, Pasta, Sausage, meatsauce etc. We tried different food for us, a delicious antipaso that was beautifully plated. We also tried a warm lentil salad with Shrimp, also very good and beautifully plated. Our soup was a cream of pumpkin, delicious. For the main course, hubby got the lamb shank and I got sea bass with asparagus. I liked mine, hubby didn't like his. The staff were so attentive. Shout out to Alex who was so pleasant and patient with us as we tried wines, cocktails etc. Thank you to Miguel, Beitin, Gustavo, Noe and Jose who went out of their way to aim to please us. The Supervisor came out to check on hubby to see why he didn't like his dish and find out how he could accommodate him.Dessert was great! During our time there a young man played the piano. It was a very enjoyable time, with wonderful staff and good food.

Hotel Mousai is an experience without comparison or parallel. From the moment you arrive the level of care provided by the hotel staff will leave you in amazement. The excellent dinning, rooftop experiences, and cleanliness of the rooms were only a few things that made the stay both impressive and memorable. I would really like to thank Mildred, Gustavo, Diego, Bertin, Jose, Lupita, Katy, Geovani, Yessenia, Arturo, Alex, Edgar, and the Ricardos for really taking care of myself and three friends. While the hotel and its amenities are amazing it's the staff that really made the experience worthwhile.

"Wonderful Resort, Amenities and Service"

One of our Bellman went out of his way to help us. Victor Leyva used his own time to help us search for a collectible item we wanted. He found it for us, and did not ask us for any favors. All the service persons, from the front desk to room service, and hospitality were excellent. The rooms was so nice, the restaurants were excellent, and the property was well kept. We enjoyed it so much. Angel and Veronica our servers at Dao (Chinese Restaurant) were excellent. The chef Quan came out to greet us personally. At Bocados (Steak House), Richard, Juan, and Xavier served us. We learned Caeser salad was invented in Mexico by a chef named Ceaser. The cuisine was delicious in Dao, Bocados, and Bianca Blue. We are already thinking of when we will return to Puerto Vallarata and the Mousai of Garza Blanca.

"Outstanding Vacation!"

This was our first trip to Garza Blanca, but won't be our last. The property is beautiful, sitting on a hill, seemingly in the middle of the forest, especially when you're in the higher buildings. The location is stunning.We stayed in the main building, which is where the main pool and lobby are located. It was incredibly convenient since we had small children: the pool and the restaurant, where we chose to have breakfast at each day were only steps away. Our room was a three bedroom suite, which was huge and expansive. The furniture was beautiful, clean and in good shape. The mattresses were incredibly comfortable. Our room had an unfortunate noise three times daily: 5:30 am, 5 pm and 11:15 pm the staff busses dropped off and picked up staff members. For the rooms on that side of the hotel (north, I believe), we were woken to that reverse beeping multiple times a day. Not good, and something I think they should work on finding a solution to. My biggest concern with the room was a safety issue and highly concerning with small children: it was almost impossible for the sliding glass doors to be locked. The mechanisms were definitely not okay; even the staff struggled to get them to work. In the end, we chose to have the curtains all closed at all times, which was our best solution to not draw attention from the kids. In my opinion, this could be a deal-breaker for families with small children.The housekeeping staff was probably the most impressive I've experienced in years and years. Everything was spotless, every single day. There was also nightly turn-down service, which was great with tramping in sand from the beach in the afternoons, showers before dinner, etc. Aracelli was our housekeeper and couldn't have done a better job.Our package came with butler service. After settling us in, asking us our needs and taking a standing breakfast order for the kids, they were available for whatever needs or questions I had during the week. Roberto, Felipe, Fernando and Jose seemed to be right around the corner whenever we needed anything, or just to check in on us.We chose to have an in-room dining experience with the chefs of Blanca Blue. Chefs Gabino and Antonio, along with Jose, our waiter, and Jose, our butler, came in, set up, cooked and served one of the best meals we've had anywhere in the world. They asked us what we wanted to eat and we decided to give them license to create a meal that inspired them. And it was amazing! This, we will remember for a long time to come.The pool is where we spent most of our time, since we had young children. Once again, the service was over the top! Roberto and Alex seemed to be there every day and memorized what each person in the family liked to eat and drink. It was just a really lovely way to spend each day. Unfortunately, the beach service didn't meet the same standard as the pool service. I only went down once to relax, but struggled to find someone to get a towel from or a drink (almost an hour).We did spend an afternoon at the spa, and it was wonderful. The massage was great, and the hydrotherapy beforehand was such a treat. We are still talking about that experience.Not only is this property beautiful, but the service is what makes Garza Blanca a 5 star experience.

"Fantastic place for a family trip!"

Beach in the front, jungle in the back. We fell asleep to waves crashing and snorkeled right in front of the hotel every day (crystal clear and so many incredible fish)! Our family loved the snorkel tour out to the arches and also loved the rainforest hike to the swimming hole. We ventured outside of the resort a couple days (deep sea fishing and Vallarta Adventure zip lining) but otherwise just enjoyed Garza. Every staff member was so kind and friendly. But ESPECIALLY Alex (the poolside server who was incredible, got our food out quick and always accurate, and so professional and enjoyable to be around. Also our kids LOVED Diego by the snorkels. He made their day so much fun and was so energetic and silly. He was a highlight for them. We also loved Oswaldo, who was so helpful and friendly. He led our stretching class, helped down by the beach, and took some amazing family pics for us before we left. Thanks Oswaldo!We just got home today and were so sad to have to leave paradise.

"Luxurious, safe resort with great service + terrible food"

My husband and I went to Garza Blanca for our honeymoon. We booked our reservation direct through the site and got exactly what we paid for -- Oceanfront Honeymoon Suite. The pictures didn't do the room justice - our view was extraordinary, private and grand. We were right over the beach and left our patio doors open most nights to fall asleep to the waves.The service, from the moment we arrived, was incredible. Our concierge handled all of our bookings and excursions from the moment we arrived. I tend to research places and activities before I travel, but I didn't really need to, to be honest. Our concierge handled everything for us once we arrived. We're both sober, but got an all inclusive package in the name of ease. It was our first time in Puerto Vallarta, as well as Garza Blanca, so here's what I'd note for anyone else making the decision:1. Everything that's included by default is great - the kayaks, hikes, etc,... are rad. The pools are lovely, the views are present everywhere. The service is outstanding - anything we asked for, if they had it, we got and quickly. Folks were incredibly responsive and gracious.2. Skip the upsells, including the time share pitch - The massages, paid driver from the airport, even with the discounts of pre-paying or with the timeshare pitch, aren't worth it. Massages at Garza Blanca are $150+ per person vs $40-70 at the best spas in town. An Uber from the airport is less than $20 USD vs the "pre paid private car" they offer for $110 USD in advance of the airport.We didn't find the time share presentation pushy. We've both been sales people and saw them as folks trying to close a sale. 3. The food was Instagram worthy, but was terrible to eat - We opted for an all inclusive package because we wanted the ease. But the food at GB was all over the place - if it hadnt been included already we would have been livid. Trust - everything was served and played beautifully, but half the meals felt like theyd been prepared by people who'd read descriptions of the food vs eaten it. Breakfast was good, but room service was a total crap shoot and the only decent dinners were at Hiroshi and the Steakhouse. The snacks at the mall were convenient, wildly over priced, and limited, but they suited in a pinch.Once we ventured into town (a $5 USD Uber ride and 15-20 mins), the food was incredible. Coco's had an amazing breakfast and Tintoque was one of the most extraordinary upscale meals we've had in years. The street food on the Boardwalk was lovely. Overall: the room + hotel was incredible and worth every penny. The experiences, like the kayaks + pool, were great and we strongly recommend them. If we did it again, we'd absolutely consider staying at GB again, but we would treat it solely as a hotel + would have all of our meals and services in town at better quality, for a lower price.

Starting from the rooms, they were so clean and we had everything we needed thanks to Alma who took care of us from day one. She was so sweet, we even got a bottle of champagne I felt like a Queen! She was always available for anything we needed. The customer service all around the pools and ocean was excellent! Alvaro, Juan and Antonio helped our stay to be unforgettable with their kindness.

My wife and I had never been on a resort vacation before, and this stay at Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta might have ruined us for all other vacations. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, and the level of service was just perfect. In between hammock naps, amazing food and cocktails, and reading by the infinity pool, we really enjoyed the excursions Hotel Garza provided. Kayaking with Diego and the mountain hike with Jay were so much fun (and enough of a workout to justify a large brunch afterwards). After six beautiful nights in paradise, we were sad to go home. To the wonderful hotel staff: muchísimas gracias a todos - nos vamos a volver pronto! :) Sinceramente, Rebecca y Jessica

"Highly recommend"

We had such a wonderful stay at Hotel Mousai. The rooftop pool was our favorite. It was so fun to meet other vacationers from all over while enjoying the beautiful view at the rooftop. The food and drinks were fabulous and the service was exceptional. A special shout-out to Juan Santillan who went above and beyond to accommodate us. The entire staff was wonderful and I wish I remembered more names of the ones that stood out but well be back!

"Best trip ever"

This particular stay was our best yet! Carlos Ramos, our butler in the south tower suites, was absolutely amazing. We will 100% be back again. We had a a group of 12 and everything was arranged for all of our excursions and reservations. We cant thank you enough carlos! Such a beautiful property as well.

This hotel is wonderful. As it should be. The call out is undeniably Arturo. Arturo, our server on the rooftop, was sweet, funny, and grossly attentive. This review is for him because I dont read good reviews. And nor should you Karen

"Great service at Mousai rooftop!"

Gerardo at the rooftop pool at Mousai in Puerto Vallarta was the best. He was kind, funny and fast. He was a pleasure to speak to, and provided some great tips. We had a great time there. Not only is the bar up there really cool overall, but having someone like Gerardo serve our drinks was a the best!

"Magical Property"

I've stayed here twice now, and I love this property and the people who work here. I've stayed in a number of different types of rooms, as well, and all of them are lovely. One thing I will say is that visitors should expect to get the room you paid for and not any complimentary upgrade like you get elsewhere. Here, you guy what you pay for. That said, the rooms are lovely, and the roof top pool is amazing, with perfect service, including Angel, a terrific server. Ricardo L., the bellboy at the front of the North Tower is terrific, too. They go above and beyond in trying to ensure amazing customer service.

"Birthday Trip was a 10/10"

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Mousai North Tower! Our favorite parts of our trip was our excursion day to canopy river where we did zip lining and ATV rides, our spa (Erika and Maria were absolutely exceptional), and our beach day where we rode paddle boards and drank pina coladas out of coconuts. We had amazing meal service (special shout-out to Geovani, Christian, and Nabile at breakfast & Xavier and Estaban - our servers at Bocados who went above and beyond on my birthday as well as our last evening). Our concierge (Liz and Katy) were absolutely phenomenal at arranging our reservations, our transportation, and just going the extra mile to make our trip amazing. The only thing I would suggest to avoid is the timeshare spill, we did it for discounts to our excursions and in hindsight wish we wouldve just paid full for the excursions and got those 4-5 hours of time back. Mark was our timeshare guy and he was extremely rude and made several comments that were distasteful. It sounds good to get the discount but I promise its not worth it ha! All in all, our trip was phenomenal!

"Wonderful Honeymoon at Hotel Mousai!"

We traveled to Hotel Mousai in late July for our honeymoon. We stayed 5 nights and had a truly incredible time. I cannot wait to go back! Room: We stayed in a South Tower Ultra Corner suite. The room was huge with big beautiful windows on 3/4 sides. The wrap around balcony was so nice and had plenty of space. We loved the hot tub and hammock and used both just about every day. The Ultra suites are located in higher floors, which I think is a must in the south tower as there are 2 other towers (north tower Mousai and one of the Garza Blanca towers) between the south tower and the ocean. It did seem like overall the north tower rooms probably have better views, but the south tower is newer and a maybe little bit nicer according to others guests we spoke with, but I cant verify that. Butler: The Ultra suites do come with a butler, but admittedly we didnt use ours very much since we made most of our dinner reservations with the concierge prior to and upon arrival. Our butler was Moises, and he was incredibly nice and easy to get a hold of. While we didnt really need him for anything, he did check in with us regularly to make sure we were doing well and enjoying our stay. He was happy to make a dinner reservation for us when we needed it.Pool: The rooftop pool was amazing and probably my favorite part of the resort and the trip. They offer comfy, shaded lounge chairs all around the pool, and serve drinks and lunch starting at 11am. We did find that we had to get up there around 11 to make sure we got a spot at the pool. The view is spectacular, food is really good (we loved the guacamole, pico, burrito and popcorn chicken) and drinks were wonderful as well. The service at the pool was also amazing - our main server for two of the days was Ignacio - who was wonderful. I also need to shout out Mateo, Arturo and Ricardo on the rooftop staff who were also so friendly and attentive. We checked out the rooftop pools on both the north and south tower, which are accessible no matter which tower you stay in. The views are beautiful at both, but the north tower is more pure ocean without the jungle/shore view. The north tower also seemed just a little quieter. Restaurants: We dined at every restaurant on the property (which includes the restaurants at Garza Blanca) with the exception of Aqua Zul at the Garza Blanca pool. All were very good and have really nice atmospheres and views. The breakfast buffet at Blanca Blue was wonderful and had a great variety of options. We also really enjoyed the atmosphere and views at Hiroshi and The Terrace for breakfast. The French toast (available at both) was probably the best Ive ever had. We ate lunch at the pool every day, so I cant speak to any other restaurants for lunch, but as mentioned previously, the food at the rooftop pool was great.We ate dinner at Bocados (steakhouse) twice. The steak was delicious, leek and potato soup was amazing and the sides were also really good. Our servers there were Juan, Ricardo, Martin, Jhanko and Antonio. Each one helped make our time there incredible.The Italian restaurant, Noi, was also excellent. They offered homemade pastas and pizzas that were so incredibly good. I loved the ravioli and the Cacio e Pepe pizza. Chef Francesco Cavicchi does a wonderful job and was kind enough to stop by our table and check on us.Dao was my husbands favorite. We ordered the chicken lettuce wraps, vegetable spring rolls and fried rice for starters and they were all SO good. The Kung Pao chicken was also delicious. Spa: We booked the Soul Connection couples massage and it was wonderful! We were also able to arrive 1 hr before our massage to do a hydrotherapy circuit beforehand, which neither of us had done before and really enjoyed! Weather: We were there during the rainy season, which sounded a little scary but honestly wasnt bad at all. It did rain every day, but usually only in the late afternoon/evening. Most of the day was beautiful and sunny, just hot and humid. The rain came typically around dinner time when we were ready to be inside or at least covered for the evening. I really dont have any negatives to share other than maybe to come a different time if you are opposed to high heat/humidity. Otherwise Id recommend Hotel Mousai to anyone. It was wonderful and probably the best service Ive experienced anywhere.

My husband and I took a much needed break at Hotel Mousai. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family by their entire staff. The rooftop pools are absolutely dreamy- we never wanted to leave! A special thank you to Nathaly at the front desk, Rosy our concierge and Ricardo and Ramon, the bell boys.

"Perfect couples getaway. Super sexy hotel"

Hotel Mousai is absolutely one of the best resorts Ive been too, hands down. I would go back 1000X. The staff was extremely friendly and genuinely wanted to accommodate us as much as possible. We stayed at the south tower which is the new one. Holy smokes Batman, this place is so modern and extremely sexy. And just wait until you get to the room, talk about setting the mood! Its decorated extremely modern and everything is perfect for a getaway with your spouse/partner. The chair in the bathroom was my favorite, youll figure it out when you get there. The jacuzzi outside was perfect for a little private skinny dipping. The view was amazing. The food at this resort is my absolute favorite. Room service option are great. Room service was slow most of the time not always. One day we ordered at 10 and didnt get it until past midnight. Rooftop staff was amazing, thank you Luis, Carlos and Yessenia for keeping us hydrated and fed the whole time. The timeshare presentation sales man was great but his boss the sales manager was pushy and made me feel uncomfortable so I walked out. I dont intend on buying a timeshare but I do intend on buying an apartment there. The spa was great and very professional. Im going to visit many more times to come. Thank you for the great time.

"Simply the best!"

We had an incredible 6 days at Garza Blanca. The views are stunning from all over the resort, the suites are beautiful, comfortable, spacious, and complete with washer and dryer. The amenities and provisions are incredible, but what makes this place truly spectacular is the hard-working, attentive, genuine care of the staff. Housekeeping by Abigail and Marisol always caught our attention and left us smiling! On a daily basis, the gentlemen at the pools of Tower 5 (Juan, Moses, and Tony) and the main lobby (Gerardo and Tito) took such wonderful care of us. Thank you all for EVERYTHING! We enjoyed several dishes and specialty drinks from each of the restaurants we visited but were especially blown away by the gentleman of Bocados. Jhanko was one of the best, most attentive servers we have ever had anywhere. Special thanks as well to Antonio, Javier, Pedro, Esteban, Rosalio, Ricardo, Fabian, Xavier, Ivan, & Ruben. We also absolutely adored the lovely saxophone player. The only aspect we felt was lacking a bit was the trolley service - timing was somewhat inconsistent and could be improved by adding one or two trolleys, however all of the drivers were lovely and helpful. Thank you to the bellboys who assisted us on several occasions in getting us to where we needed to be - Victor, Joel, & Miguel. We also wanted to extend our graciousness and well-wishes to Dr. Rivas in Tower 4 who took such great care of my sister when we had to stop in quite late on our last evening. There are countless other names who made our stay special and unforgettable that we are equally as grateful for. Thank you all. Keep up the great work and God bless you all :)

"Exceeded all expectations"

If you're debating on booking here, just DO IT! Everything was so great that we are having a hard time transitioning back to real life after our vacation. First we booked the round trip airport transportation through our pre-arrival concierge. It was very reasonably priced. They were waiting on us in a large Mercedes van. VIP services provided us with much needed cold water after spending way to long in customs. They handled our luggage, cranked the AC and basically narrated a whole tour while enroute to Mousai. We stayed in the South tower. I was apprehensive as other reviews mentioned loud construction in the south tower. Our room was amazing and huge, the balcony and plunge pool provided amazing views and the perfect place for multiple photo shoots. We had no issue at all with construction noise. I heard a hammer in the hallway one time, but it was not audible in our room. The food is top notch. We ate at every restaurant. It's all delicious and impossible to pick our favorite. I will say Noi was our least favorite. There were no issues there, we just preferred the others. Blanca Blue had a perfect view of the sunset. Thankfully Gustavo offered us Mexican coffee and I was so glad he did because I had read many reviews that mentioned it. This isn't just coffee! This is a cocktail with a full on table side show including a lot of fire. It's a must order! The mango roll at Hiroshi was our favorite. We loved our servers David and David at Dao. They were so friendly and very attentive. We had breakfast at The Terrace and it was also phenomenal. Most mornings we just had room service on our balcony though. The housekeeping kept our room spotless the entire stay. The room was so great I never wanted to leave!The majority of our day time was spent on the South Rooftop. Antonio was hands down the most attentive server I've ever had. He is definitely 5 diamond quality. There were DJs and different musicians playing a great mix of music in the day and evenings. We got a chair/umbrella by the pool every day with no issue no matter what time you showed up. It was NEVER over crowded. Typically I'm a beach girl, but this infinity pool is in a league of its own.We bought Spa gift certificates before arrival so we could get a discount. This isn't necessary as if you're all inclusive you get 20% off spa services anyway. So don't stress about buying them in advance. We booked our massages the day before we left. We all agreed they were in the top massages we've ever had. Luis was my massage therapist and I highly recommend him. It's a good thing we went during the end of the week or we would have probably spent every day and dollar we had there. It's a lovely place with great views and amenities. Before the massage you get 1 hr of hydro-therapy. We did have a little hiccup there. Whenever the Concierge booked our treatments we were not informed we needed to wear our swimsuits to the spa. We had to run back to our room to retrieve them. That was inconvenient as it cut into out hydro-therapy time. So wear your swimsuit. One of the only things that could use some improvement is the mandatory rubber flip flops you wear when there. They were so uncomfortable it was painful for me. These are just minor things because it's honestly hard to find anything to complain about at Mousai. The beach was a good hang out spot too. Once again we had NO issues getting chairs and umbrellas. Food and drinks are also available there. The beach itself was cool and as expected. Actually the water was much more clear than I anticipated. They have a kayak excursions that goes out to the Los Arcos rocks. My friend did this one morning and was blown away. She said the snorkeling once at the rocks was phenomenal. The trip was so amazing that we were slightly nervous about the bill at the end. We thought there is no way this was all included. Heck we even drank the full size bottles of our mini bar. Just as promised, everything was indeed included. Our only additional charges were tips/gratuity we had purposely left. The all inclusive is 100% worth it. The food is a complete culinary experience at every restaurant. Once again there was never an issue getting a reservation at the time and place we wanted. Lastly, we never needed Pesos. We took small bills for tipping or left it on the room bill. We went downtown and to the romantic zone shopping. Everyone there takes US dollars as well. Cabs are a flat rate, I think 10$ to get downtown, definitely go exploring atleast once. All of our expectations were exceeded and we cannot wait to visit again!

The whole staff makes sure that your stay is the best it can possibly be. Ruben, our butler, takes service to the next level.

One of the nicest resorts I have had the pleasure of staying at. The rooms were extremely comfortable and nicely decorated. I loved being able to control everything (and even order room service) from the included iPad. The food and drinks were phenomenal, which is rare at an all-inclusive. The cocktails were very inventive. The best part of the hotel was the service, however. Everyone did all they could to make sure you had the best stay ever. The rooftop pool was my favorite spot to be. The whole staff here (Maggie, Guillermo, Ricardo, Antonio, Diego, Yessenia) went ABOVE and beyond to make sure we never went empty handed.

All of the reviews about how great the service was set my expectations pretty high. Those expectations were exceeded ten times over. We did the Chinese, Steakhouse, and Japanese for dinner, the rooftop for lunch (shoutout to Diego!), Never needed water, drinks, a wrong or missing order, or experienced anything but highly accommodating and friendly people. Did the kayak trip to Los Arcos as well. That was one of the highlights of the trip! Our guide (another Diego) was fabulous, engaging, and overall great.

Lileth provided us excellent service from the moment we arrived to the very end seeing us off in the car that she ordered to take us to the airport. She was sure to check in with us everyday a few times a day to see if there was anything we needed. Anything we requested she was sure to make happen. Her bright cheerful smile everyday was very nice to see. When we visit again Ill be asking for her. I highly recommend using the butler service.

During our stay, we would come down for breakfast every morning and were greeted by the most friendly, helpful, and kind staff members. They knew us by name, remembered our drink orders, and provided helpful suggestions about the food on the menu. Geovanni was very nice and provided us with everything we needed during our meal. In addition, Edgar and Nabile displayed excellent table service and made each experience a great. Thank you to Geovanni, Edgar, Nabile, Dayana, Paty, Lalo, Cesar, Criss, Robert, and the rest of the team for making our stay so special! We see and commend you for all your hard work - Hotel Mousai would not be the place it is without you.

"Great stay at hotel mousai"

We did a work trip to hotel mousai for four nights and it was a great experience. It was absolutely five diamond service. The service at the rooftop pool bar was particularly exceptional.Our prearrival concierge provided excellent service. He helped us all book massages, dinner reservations, and a boat ride for the group prior to arrival.We ate at the steakhouse, Japanese, Chinese and Italian restaurant. The only one that was not not excellent was the Italian. We ordered room service for breakfast and it was Great. The food at the rooftop pool bar was also excellent and everything was very high quality and the presentation was very high end.The Trolley to the beach takes about five minutes. The food at the beach is not as good, but it was fine. It was part of Garza Blanca.We did the all inclusive package and I would highly recommend it if you drink at all, and maybe even if you don't. The rooms are great. Huge, with great views and a hot tub on each deck. Amazing bathrooms with a bidet.The spa has an amazing hydrotherapy section and view that the website doesn't do justice. Everyone enjoyed their massages. I will come back. Overall it's a very high end contemporary resort with excellent service.

"Spectacular experience"

The property is beautiful, but what makes it all worth it is the food and the staff. Long but comprehensive review.THE STAFFJhanko was extraordinary at BocaDos Steakhouse. We started talking, he heard my husband loved mezcal and I love sour cocktails. He went and personalized cocktails for us, which were the best weve had during our 8-day stay! Talk about going above and beyond!Alberto at the rooftop was our host 2 nights for dinner. He learned our names straight away and knew them every time we bumped into one another. He made excellent food recommendations and seems like a genuinely nice guy.Samai is the hostess at Hiroshi and she also learned our names and is the epitome of warmth and kindness. She is just special and you can tell right away.Bonnie was our concierge and helped with reservations and info anytime we needed. Super nice and helpful.The general manager was extremely kind and helpful when we didnt get any sleep after our first night because of in inconsiderate noisy neighbors who kept shouting late at night and early in the morning. I believe his name was Johnattan, but Im not sure, Im sorry. He moved us to another room so we can best enjoy our hard-earned honeymoon.THE FOODWe are huge seafood lovers and this was paradise for us. Creme de la creme was Hiroshi, we went there 3 nights for dinner, including our last night. The Yuzu Salmon is an out of body experience! (no, Im not exaggerating even one bit). Miso creme brulee is so yummy but we opted for salmon sashimi as dessert (not on the menu but they can do it). Everything was just insanely good here.The octopus and bone barrow at the rooftop for dinner were amazing as well. The presentation and taste of soups at the Mexican one downstairs is truly 5 stars.Steaks at BocaDos are good but are you really coming to the paradise of fresh seafood for steaks?!Best breakfast options are hands down at the Mexican restaurant next to the lobby. The variety is 10x better than at BocaDos.OTHER THINGSThey push timesharing quite a lot. We attended a presentation but ultimately for us the numbers didnt make sense as an investment.Tandem kayaks to Los Arcos is 100% worth it. The guide allows plenty of breaks and snorkeling was a dream there.We did have all-inclusive. Its most worth it if youre a big drinker and foodie. If you love sushi/seafood, we recommend having it at least 2 days to enjoy Hiroshi at the maximum - you need 2 days cause youll want to go back!If youre trying to decide if to pay extra for Mousai (the even more luxurious 2 towers on the property), we had a very poor experience there against all odds. We did not feel those last 3 nights were worth it at all!

"Fantastic resort with incredible views"

For reference my husband and I have been to 12+ All inclusive resorts in Mexico over the last 15 years, most of which have been in Cancun/Riveria Maya. We are in our 40s and we have two kids ages 12 and 15. We have never been to the same resort more than once; we like to try different resorts. I would say that most of the resorts weve been to would be considered 4 or 5 star hotels. We loved Garza Blanca Preserve. We opted for the all-inclusive package because we do like to eat and drink and enjoy a vacation more knowing what the total cost of the trip will be before we get there. We did not leave the resort during the 6 days we were there. We felt there was enough at the resort to keep us busy (at a relaxed pace). We also opted for walking across the bridge at the airport and taking a taxi from there to save some money. We did not have any issues doing this. It cost us $20 to get to the resort. The resort called a taxi for us to return. The taxi was there in a few minutes and it cost $25. The taxi ride took about 35 40 minutes. Covid testing at the resort was easy as well. It cost $30 per person and results were emailed to us within a few hours.Here are some other main takeaways:Food (5)Like most of the reviews on here, we also agree that the food was excellent. Our favorites for dinner were in this order, Hiroshi, Dao, Aqua Azul, Bocados STk, and Blanca Blue. My husband and I let the kids order room service so we could visit Hiroshi (since it is adults only) and my daughter and my husband visited Dao on another night (even though she is only 15 and Dao is adults only they let her in). All the food was very good to excellent, however Hiroshi was a step above most every restaurant we have even been to at an AI resort specifically around the atmosphere and ambiance. We could have easily spent $300 for our meal here in the States. I have to avoid gluten and dairy so eating out is always a bit intimidating. They asked about food allergies at the host station before every meal and did a fair job of accommodating me. Some restaurants/servers did an amazing job of this! The menus do not specify dairy but do have notes that specify dishes that are gluten-free and vegan. They were willing to modify meals so I could have something that wasnt by default gluten or dairy free. Typically, when traveling in MX, one or more of us will have some some sort of tummy trouble during or after the vacation. At Garze Blanca, no-one in our family had issues, which is amazing. We almost did not do Aqua Azul for dinner because it was outside and seemed more casual, however we loved it. Food was good, but sitting out on the beach and watching the sunset was second to none. A couple of the restaurants had a live saxophonist play during dinner which was very nice as well. The drinks were all amazing as well and I liked how each restaurant had its own specialty cocktail menu. Also worth noting - most of the restaurants have incredible views that face the ocean and take advantage of the beautiful PV sunsets - which we adore! The cocktails were a real treat - they are not the mass produced kind with cheap mixers - they taste curated; fresh and well-crafted with high quality spirits.Service (5)We felt the service was some of the best across all the resorts we have been to. There were a few folks we interacted with around the pool and during activities that were especially kind and were a pleasure to interact with. These included Emmanuel, Jay, and Carla. They stopped to speak with us every time they saw as and were great about finding out anything we needed. The person that impressed us the most however was Roberto el Capitan at Bocados for breakfast and Blanca Blue for lunch. He learned our names early on and my dietary restrictions and over the course of the week he brought out dishes that met my dietary restrictions but were not listed on the menu - for example one day he surprised me with gluten free pancakes and another day gluten free waffles. He went above and beyond what was expected and it was greatly appreciated!Activities (4)I would say activities would be the only downside of the trip, although this is fairly minor because there were enough activities to keep us busy. We did the advanced hiking tour one day which was a lot of fun. Kids loved it. Some parts are VERY steep and they had ropes to climb up or climb down. Several people had to head back before finishing and the staff was prepared for this with extra workers to go back with them. (Shout out to Carla who basically hiked the trail twice to help take people back then rejoin the group.) The total hike was about 2.5 hours. The views were amazing! My kids were a bit disappointed, because we were expecting to see waterfalls, however we learned that May is dry season and all the waterfalls had dried up. Going later in the year would have been better to see those. We also did a kayak tour that went half-way to Los Arcos (about 1 hour total). The reservations for the trip to Los Arcos filled up quickly and we also learned that during this time of year they do not do any snorkeling because the ocean isnt very clear so we were disappointed with that and decided not to spend 2.5 hours kayaking out there. We did do snorkeling in the beach area around the rocks and saw a variety of fish. My daughter also participated in a paddle boarding class and paddle-boarded for the first time; which she loved. They did a great job teaching her all the basics. They have quite a few paddle boards but several are in need of repair so at this time they can only send out two at a time. One day, they had a Ceviche class by the pool which was fun and we also did Bocce ball one afternoon led by Jay. I did a stretching class one morning led by Emmanuel and enjoyed it very much. The stretching and yoga are located at Tierra Luna, a beautiful location at the foot of the mountain with hanging orchids, lush plants, and tropical birds flying overhead. Other than that, we spent our time lounging around the pool and playing on the beach. The website mentioned a bird watching tour but we did not see anything advertised for that. We went over to Tierra Luna a few times in the evening. The gardens and carousel are very lovely. They had live music one night when we went over there, however the place was pretty empty, so we left. There is not a dedicated entertainment staff at this resort like some of the other resorts we have been to, which is why I said it was the only downside. We enjoyed the activities that were provided and the staff that provided them.Room (5)We got the basic room and we thought it was amazing. We were in building 2 (2401). We were right on the beach and could hear the crash of the oceans from inside our room. We were also close to the pools, beach and some of the restaurants so it was not a big deal to go back to the room throughout the day to get something or drop something off which would have been much more of a pain if we were in another building at one of the higher elevations. We also loved the walk-in closet in the room as well as the overall size. The room was lovely, clean and comfortable. The A/C was great. The room smelled nice. The decor was updated and fresh. The mattress was perfect and the bed had ample pillows. The bathroom was small but very nice. The fully tiled shower/tub was wonderful - great shower with good water pressure and ample hot water. Just outside the room is a large wall and on the other side is a road that runs through the middle of the property. You can hear street noise from this street while at the lower pool, but they have many pool fountains that create a nice white noise that drowns out most of it. The view from the room was truly spectacular. Being right on the beach and laying in the porch hammock listening to the waves was heavenly!Overall Impression (5)While we have never stayed at the same resort twice, I would definitely consider staying here again especially at the right price. It is likely we will try another one of the Garza Blanca resorts in the future. The resort was absolutely beautiful and the pictures we have sent our friends have sparked a lot of questions and interest in where we stayed. We really had no complaints. Based on the food and drinks/restaurants, beauty of the resort (and the mountains/ocean all around you), overall service, and enough activities to supplement the beach and pool time, I would definitely recommend this resort to friends (actually already have)!

I came to Hotel Mousai with some friends for a girls trip and was amazed with the service. Diego at the rooftop was one of my favorites. He always made my group feel welcomed and ensured we had everything we needed. Ariel at the front desk was another welcoming face and presence. He gave us amazing recommendations and never complained when we needed new room keys or had crazy asks (including bringing bad bunny in for a room party). Both of these people made Mousai South feel like home and will be the reason I return. On the rooftop make sure you order the tuna sashimi and a hibiscus margarita

This is the best resort ever! Not only the design, not only the location, not only the highly professional and friendly customer service, not only the exceptional culinary artcy super delicious food, but also I am taking my hat off for the owner of this resort who created this magical place and who cares about his customers and stuff! THANK YOU!!!I want to also acknowledge everyone who made our stay perfect. Please forgive me if I forget someone or if I dont remember the names. I will start with the lady who cleaned our room number 3502B for the week of 5/14-5/21. She was super friendly and did your best for us. Thank you. I also want to acknowledge the kids club that our four and six year old really enjoyed it. Great job ladies! I also want to mansion the chef of the blue Blanca Blanca blue restaurant. Oh my God. If you have a chance please have a lunch there and please order everything that you have for lunch. So so so delicious. This is 24 year old young man is incredible chef. And all the stuff in Blanca blue are amazing. My kudos to your manager and to you guys. I also want to acknowledge the amazing chef from Hong Kong for the new Asian restaurant. And the Italian restaurant is amazing as well. Not even talking about the Hiroshi love your food and you guys! My only regret is that unfortunately the roof top was not opened to serve food for Garza blanca residents. We enjoyed your bone marrow dish two years ago when it was opened to Garza blanca residents. Please please please open it for us again. And please get back the bone marrow dish. It was so so so delicious.Thank you again and z I cant wait to visit you again.

Fabio (who is so sweet and amazing) bought me a beautiful bouquet of roses and S Kia from housekeeping decorated it beautifully.

"The time of our life!! Mousai is a MUST!"

Hotel Mousai is a class act! The amount of attention you receive as a hotel guestis like none other in the area! We spent eight days in a corner suite with a beautiful view of the ocean and enjoyed our private Jacuzzi and hammock everyday! This is our second time visiting and we love it so much that we finally decided to join the membership family and become timeshare owners! With our package this trip, we were able to enjoy hydrotherapy in the spa every day which is an amazing experience, especially the cold dip! The rooftop bar was our favorite place to be. Jorge and Marcelino took very good care of us the entire time we were there. The entire Mousai family celebrated our anniversary every chance they had with desserts and rose petals in our room. Jeanne, our concierge was always so helpful and pleasant! Miguel is at the bell desk and was always available to assist with questions or to get us a cab. He has the best smile and demeanor! The food at Dau was amazing. We also had an excellent dinner at Blanca Blue, however, I would not recommend paying the extra money for the romantic dinner on the beach. The view was amazing but the food was not up to par with our overall experience. Another stand out is Karrum. Its on the property but if you decide to do the all-inclusive like we did for three days, this particular restaurant is not included as it is higher priced. However, all of the inclusive food and alcohol was amazing! But Karrum is definitely one of the best steak restaurants Ive been to. My husband and I also enjoyed two 80 minute massages and my massage therapist, Julio was one of the best Ive ever had and I travel very frequently to other 5 star spas. BUT The true MVP of the week who made our entire trip was our butler Carlos. He went above and beyond to check in with us multiple times throughout the day. He would walk around to find us or text us just to make sure we were happy and did not need any reservations or anything handled. He took care of many of our asks during our stay and is the main reason we will be coming back to Mousaiof course he will only be our Butler next time we return. If you come to Puerto Vallarta, this is where you want to stay. If you have children, you can stay at one of the other properties called Garza Blanca but Hotel Mousai is an all inclusive adult only resort that is definitely above and beyond a five star!!! We will see our new Mexican family in February when we return! Save my suite!

Everything is délescious but the poblano sauce chilaquiles are out of this world . You will not be disappointed with your stay at Mousai. Weve already booked our next stay here!

"All-Inclusive + Beautiful PV Backdrop = Honeymoon of a lifetime"

From the moment we stepped onto the property, we felt like we were being welcomed home. As Tafer members, we are accustomed to the personalized hospitality at the Garza Blanca properties--our 5 day / 4 night stay at Hotel Mousai was nothing short of exceptional. We were immediately greeted by Concierge Karen, who oriented us & set our full itinerary (including dinner reservations for each night, booking our massages at Spa Imagine, & organizing our off-property tours/activities). Our North Tower Mountain suite opened up to views of Banderas Bay & Los Arcos, and we took every advantage of taking in the sunrise from our hammock & plunge pool. We spent most of our afternoons eating & relaxing at the North Tower rooftop infinity pool. Ricardo & Jorge attended to us on multiple occasions, and never missed a beat. Our Mezcaltini & Coffee Time drinks were continuously refreshed, and the coconut shrimp & aguachile were daily orders. The rooftop at night also delivered...still peaceful & especially romantic with the lights illuminating the coastline & views of downtown PV in the distance. Maria made sure we were also well-cared for when we came by for our night caps! :) Perhaps a bit ambitious, but we joined the hotel's Kayaking excursion that left from Garza Blanca's beach at 8 am. Kudos to Alan & Victor for leading our group out to Los Arcos National Marine Park. Never felt rushed--took breaks when needed & still made it back safely to shore by 10:20 am. It was 2.5 miles each way (!), and was a full body workout even in a tandem kayak. Poor visibility, so no snorkeling, but not a big deal. Lastly, our butler Ruben elevated our trip to a whole new level. He helped my husband execute a small surprise for our last night there. After the boat ride & Rhythms of the Night Show, we came back to our suite beautifully decorated with balloons, rose petals, and chilled Sparkling wine & dessert. A sight for sore eyes & feet after a full day of sight-seeing. We appreciated Ruben's responsiveness & frequent check-ins throughout our stay. Food-wise: - Blanca Blue for Mexican breakfast is solid, with many options. (Tip: Order tableside Mexican coffee!)- Hiroshi was as expected (Tip: Since the restaurant is adjacent to the lobby, ask for a table on the balcony for the best ambiance)- BocaDos spoiled us. We especially enjoyed the waiters teaching us about Raicilla and fixing up custom drinks for us was special (we're big mezcal drinkers)(Tip: Try to book dinner reservations when the live musicians (especially flutist) are playing. You'll have a soundtrack that complements the already breathtaking sunset views)Thank you, Hotel Mousai, for helping us celebrate our long awaited Honeymoon. We can't wait to return next time--with our parents, siblings, and family in tow--and share this slice of paradise with them.

Breakfasts were the best thanks to the amazing food and the service of Luis Gabriel! He was so attentive and nailed every recommendation. All of the staff was more than gracious. Special thanks to our butler Rueben also! Thanks mousai - give them both a raise ;)

"Wonderful stay at Hotel Mousai"

Based on recommendations from friends, we booked an Ultra Mousai Corner Suite in the North Tower with the all-inclusive package for 6 nights (May 7-13, 2022). We could not have been more pleased with our stay. The corner Ultra suite was amazing and the north tower provided unobstructed views from Los Arcos to the south to all of Puerto Vallarta and the entire Bay of Banderas to the north (the south tower's views are somewhat obstructed by the north tower). Our butler, Eduardo was fantastic and was always quick to respond to any and every request. He really made our stay extra special. We will definitely request Eduardo for our next stay. Also want to call out our housekeeper, Angelica, for her fantastic service. Every staff member we encountered was so friendly and provided excellent service. Mario, our concierge, arranged all our initial dinner reservations as soon as we arrived and was very helpful. Some of our favorite wait staff included Eliu and Miguel at Noi and Marco at Blanca Blue (this ended up being our favorite restaurant for dinner). Breakfast at both The Terrace and BocaDos was fantastic every time. And room service was outstanding.We spent the majority of our trip at the north tower rooftop pool. The food, drinks and entire staff at the pool are awesome. Carlos, our pool concierge, made sure we were always comfortable and was shifting umbrellas to keep us shaded all throughout the day. Jorge was our waiter at the pool for several days of our trip. On our first day at the pool, I mentioned that my wife's birthday was the next day. The next day, Jorge had a special birthday dessert created for her. All through the week, Jorge (as well as the other pool staff, Diego, Victoria, Ricardo, and Marcelino) anticipated our every need. Both Jorge and Carlos truly made our stay something we will always remember. Can't wait to return to Hotel Mousai.

We had the pleasure of staying here for about a week for our honeymoon. It was our first time ever doing anything like this and it blew our expectations out of the water. We did the North Tower ultra suite, and I absolutely would recommend it to others and would do it again - go with the all inclusive plan, it's worth it. The drinks are great, the food I honestly thought was absolutely fantastic. NOI and Hiroshi especially were really great and the servers made it all so special. The squid ink risotto haunts my dreams, it was so good . The live music is also a huge plus!The rooftop pool and bar are a fantastic way to spend an afternoon, but bring plenty of sun screen. I personally also LOVED the hikes - my now wife found the mountain hike a little challenging, it's a bit more ropes course than she anticipated but again, if you're into that it is a lot of fun. There is also kayaking, snorkeling and tons of other pools. There's also a little village Tierra Luna near by but it was always a bit empty when we visited, but that was fine since there is a ton of other gorgeous places to be. The view from the rooms are unbeatable and its so nice to have a little hot tub in your room too, and you can get room service every morning with a beautiful sunrise backdrop.Our honeymoon was so much fun and it was a great place to relax and enjoy.

"Amazing service and beautiful amenities"

Our family rented a three bedroom suite in tower 5 and had the best time together. Waking up with that view and spending quality time with the family is invaluable. Our housekeeper Brenda was incredibly sweet and provided us with the best service. While i was concerned by the trolleys, they ended up being easy to manage and Erick the driver was so fun and provided excellent service to our family. Thank you for the fun and memorable trip!

"Relaxing vacation, attentive poolside service and amazing views"

We had a great time visiting the resort for 5 nights with our family (adults and toddlers). Spent most of the days poolside and got great, friendly, quick service (thank you Roberto!! Best server ever :) )The beach area is small, but was never crowded. We also enjoyed being in the ocean bc they have a stone wall that keeps the waves enjoyable for the toddlers. All inclusive food was tastier than other resorts we've been to in the past, I just wished they changed the menus up at the poolside, room service and breakfast restaurants. Overall loved it and will be back again.

"Honeymoon experience"

When we first arrived we were tired from traveling. The staff were very kind and efficient at welcoming us. The room was made up perfectly, it was our honeymoon so the surprise they set up cant be described if you havent seen it. How they timed everything is a mystery but it was fantastic. The friends we made with the other guests as well as the staff are ones you want to keep, they are the best people. We sat down with Caesar to go over the presentation about vacation packages and it was very informative . Because of the staff we will be coming back at every opportunity we can. Our housekeeper Marisol kept our room perfect the entire stay and we where surprised each day with a new little treat or design on the bed. Our fridge was kept perfectly stocked. Jay and Mike are phenomenal and provided amazing service during activities such as Mike hosting the cooking class and Hikes .Lupita at the Bocados steak house made sure we got seating outside so we could view the sunset and our food was delicious.Our waiters Angel and Marco at Blanca Blue where very attentive and provided amazing service . The grounds are very well kept and you should definitely take the time to walk around and see the different plants and wildlife.

My wife and I have a very pleasant stay at Hotel Mousai. The place is extremely clean. Service is above and beyond. Our butler Ernesto Ornelas really knows how to makeYou feel at home. When we left I realized I left my iPad and Apple head phones in the safe. I called Ernesto and he retrieved it. Then sent a taxi to the airport before my plane left. When we go back we definitely will request Ernesto as our butler. He also suggested the best birria in the area. Birriería Robles

Where do I begin? This resort goes over and above to make you feel pampered and taken care of. The food was extraordinary for an all inclusive. We stayed in one of the ultra suites. The room was impeccable with unobstructed views of the ocean and a hot tub jacuzzi was incredible. Every wait staff person was so very friendly and cordial. An added bonus was Lilith, our butler. Anything we needed or wanted was just a text away. She made everything seamless. Cannot say enough good things about this place. We will be back!

Check in was not smooth and had to wait 3 hours to get to our room, however everything after that was amazing! We had the 2 bedroom panoramic and it was soo worth it! The food in general is excellent and I recommend the All inclusive for this resort. They have a couple new adults only restaurants and the best of them is the Dao- contemporary Chinese restaurant. Our kids went to the kids club for a couple hours each day and they loved it! Overall it was a very relaxing vacation for the family and I recommend it !!

"Beyond Awesome to Amazing"

Arrived to stay three nights prior to leaving on a Windstar cruise. Did a google search of hotels in the area and was taken by the positive reviews for the Mousai. Until you are in the hotel, can you appreciate all the positive statements about the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Personal experience allows you to know how nice the South Tower is. Sitting in one of the restaurants, looking out to the ocean reminds you of paradise. All the positive statements are accurate but appreciated once you experience them. All the staff are outstanding and deserve personal accolades. For us Steven, concierge, was most helpful. Our butler, Eduardo, provided good suggestions, and Naomi, housekeeper, kept the room in top condition. Giovanni, breakfast server, was the best we have ever experienced! Suggestions for dinner include making a reservation time about 1/2 hour prior to sunset, take your dark glasses and eat outside. We ate at three restaurants and each was outstanding. If this will be your first experience with a heated toilet seat, with bidet, I believe you will consider adding one to your home.When asking staff for directions, it seemed each time rather than verbally telling us where to go, the person walked us to the location. The grounds are quite large but the free trolly gets you from place to place and the wait is usually at the most 15 minutes.The unique greeting or acknowledgement by staff is contagious and you will likely find yourself using it. Just another friendly experience.All staff take time with you and never appear in a rust to move on. This is true in the restaurants we ate. The server went out-of-the-way to be certain you were aware of all of the options and would make suggestions to be considered. We purchased the all included and it was a good way to go.We used the hotels transportation from the airport to the hotel and to the ship cruise port. It was our first time to Puerto Vallarta, and the airport was crazy busy. The VIP Service was well worth the cost. We were greeted and promptly off to the hotel, leaving the uninitiated to flounder through the confusion.Our only regret is only staying 3 nights. The Mousai Hotel experience was beyond awesome. Looking forward to returning.

"A perfect getaway"

We spent 5 nights here for our 20th wedding anniversary and the hotel far exceed my expectations. The staff is incredible. There is a good variety of restaurants for dinner, especially. We enjoyed the pools and the beach. The hydrotherapy is very cool, although we only did it once. I definitely recommend. We didn't do the all inclusive plan, and for us it worked out pretty much evenly.

"amazing vacation at a running resort !"

we had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful resort from april 20-27th. From the moment we walked into the lobby we were nearly speechless. it is incredibly beautiful. we had an ocean view one bedroom suite. loved listening to the waves crash while we slept as well as ordering room service and enjoying our breakfast from the balcony over looking the ocean. this resort is so clean and beautiful. loved the trolley going up to hotel mosai and all the restaurants. The food at all of them is fantastic not your typical all inclusive resort food. Before dinner we would enjoy a drink at the rooftop bar and watch the sunset.we enjoyed sitting in the infinity pool most of the day with a cold beverage watching the boats go by. A special shout out to Roger Caudillo who served us food and drinks every day by the pool. He knew exactly what we wanted before we even had to ask!! hes super friendly and attentive. Hands down our favourite waiter at the resort and amazing service. even though everyone was so friendly and great. can not say enough great things about this Garza Blanca. we will be back for sure!!! jim and jen inrig

Roberto was especially fantastic and we went out of our way to sit in his sections as he is so bright and happy. The beach is fantastic, including a Robertos beach side service with food and drinks! Alex our concierge was fantastic and went out of his way to arrange a private bird and botany tour with Tito (who was hilarious and adorably excited to show off the wildlife at the property).

"Challenging hike"

Garza Blanca provides guided hikes everyday at 10am. We had Emmanuel as our guide and he was very pleasant and was respectful of all ages and hiking levels. He even did some triage on one of our group members who had scraped her leg. Make sure you ask which hike they are doing as this was above intermediate and there were a few folks who struggled but he asked several times if anyone wanted to go back. No one did! I suggest not doing this hike hungover. Half of the hike required climbing trails with ropes that were in place so if you have people that are not that in shape this hike is not for you. Ask staff about which days are for easier trails.

"Relaxing vacation!"

We traveled here at the end of April for 5 days! Overall - beautiful property and amazing weather. It was very relaxing and the staff was great. A couple things I wish I would have known before going - theres not much resort entertainment (no nightly beach shows, no pool activities), pool bar is only open 11-5, and there is really no nightlife. We went up to the rooftop bar in the evenings after dinner and there were only a few people there. The food was pretty good - the Chinese restaurant was the best food I ate all week - you have to go there if you visit this resort!!! Its actually a part of hotel Mousai, but you can eat there for free. Also - lots of stairs/walking. There is a trolley but we usually didnt want to wait around for one so we walked and the rooms are pretty far from the beach and pool. There werent many young couples - mostly families or older people, and thats okay, made for a very relaxing week in the sun!!

Looking to spoil yourself? This is the place! The room is tasteful decorated with a huge bathroom looking out to the ocean. Terrance had a private hot tub with a lounge set and hammock to relax in privacy. The staff was amazing and highly attentive. The grounds are immaculate with a Zen feel. The rooftop infinity pool offers a stunning view of the ocean and the pool concierge was on the lookout for wet towels and replaced with fresh ones without being asked. The dining experience was awesome with 5 different cuisines to chose from, Hiroshi (Japanese), Dao (Chinese), Bocados (steakhouse), Noi (Italian) and Blanca Blue(Mexican) . Morning Yoga sessions with instructor Mike prepared me for the tough day ahead - lounging by the pool lol. A special thank you to the team from Dao, Chef Esteban, Manager Juan Carlos, servers Alberto F and David G they definitely know how to make guests feel special!

"Beautiful views, great service, great inclusive options"

Hotel Mousai offers wonderful views of the jungle and the ocean. With our Ultra South Corner Suite, we had butler service included with our stay. Carlos did a magnificent job and always tried to exceed expectations. I would hire him again without question! When asked, he ensured white wine was provided for my wife and he was always quick to set up and confirm reservations and taxi services. The room itself was large and private. The balcony jacuzzi and hammock were welcoming. The stocked mini bar had a variety of delicious liquors. Room service was outstanding and always served with a smile. We loved the little chocolates the turndown service would leave! One option that was mentioned but we never quite figured out was the aromatherapy options. Of course, we never thought to ask either so that's on us. Also, the iPad music themes are wonderful. Perhaps there's a way to connect to play your own music too, but again, we didn't ask. That could have been a nice break from the options set in the iPad. Two rooftop bars with wonderful staff (especially Jorge and Gerardo on the south tower!). They are attentive, quick to accommodate even custom drink orders, and never leave you waiting for drinks and food. The water temps in all their pools are pleasant.Hotel Mousai offers a variety of other restaurant options as well, many of which we tried. We were pleased with the good at each of them. I wish I could pick a favorite, but they all had very different, extremely delicious options. The breakfast buffet at Blaca Blue was noteworthy. The only restaurant I likely would not revisit is NOI. The food was great, however, the service really missed the mark here. It felt like at first too many people were trying to work with us and the communication wasn't quite where it needed to be. We were asked if we wanted more bread. When we said yes, it was never delivered. They refilled my wife's wine a couple times with the wrong wine. As it got busier, suddenly the service slowed down and we felt a bit forgotten about. We didn't mention anything since we knew they were trying, it just wasn't comparable to the other restaurants service.We faced two dissatiafiers with our room while there. One day one of the wine glasses left after room service had glass shards in it. That could have made for an extremely painful glass of wine had we not been paying attention. Also, our mini bar refrigerator didn't work for a couple nights. We had to ask a few people, but this did get resolved eventually. The hotel offers many included activities. We only took advantage of the intermediate hike on this visit. The tour guide was wonderful, though intermediate is quite a bit of a workout if you're not in great shape. I'm glad we hadn't chosen anything more difficult!Those aside, we would definitely come back to Hotel Mousai again. If you're looking for a worry free place to stay outside of the main city, this should be on your list.

I have traveled all over the world and Hotel Mousai, by far, exceeded any and every expectation I have ever had, when it comes to a luxury hotel. The hotel, grounds and beach were stunningly beautiful. The rooms were total luxury and comfort and the customer service was IMPECCABLE! One of the highlights of our trip was eating atone of their signature restaurants, DAO. The food was glorious. The ambience was classy and chic. But let's get back to the quality off customer service! We were taken care of, at DAO, by Alberto and Luis, who were thee most attentive, helpful, fun, knowledgeable, respectful and friendly hotel staff I've ever met.

"Our favorite escape"

This review is long overdue. We have visited Hotel Mousai at least 8 times in the last 6 years. All inclusive and luxury dont really belong in the same sentence, however, this place knocks it out of the park with their high end liquor selection along with the most impeccable meals at Hiroshi, the rooftop, and Dao. Nois pizza is also insane! The staff has, at this point, become like family. A special shout-out to Fernando (manager), Ruben (our butler), Cristian (Hiroshi), Abraham (Hiroshi), Maria (rooftop), and Yenni (rooftop). These are just a few of the names of the people who go above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need during our stay. Sorry to all the people I forgot to name; each and every staff member is polite and willing to help. Thank you Hotel Mousai and to all of the staff who keep this place our second home! See you all soon.

"The best place weve ever stayed! Book here now, you definitely will not regret it."

This was our favorite vacation ever! The room was superb - the hot tub, toilet, bed, lights, music system, in room bar, and the view - all perfect. The rooftop pool is the perfect place to relax and the staff there are very nice and attentive. The pool is the perfect temperature and the view is break taking. Our room was perfectly cleaned each day. Room service was super fun and easy. ALL of the staff were nice the entire time and obviously enjoy doing the best job possible to make your stay comfortable. Shout outs to Emmanuel at the pool at GarzaBlanca, Alejandro and Miguel at the Terrace, Geovany and Lezama at Hiroshi, Yesi our concierge, and our butler Ruben. All did an outstanding job and went above and beyond. My only complaint was I bought a pair of $40 sun glasses from the general store at Garza Blanca that broke after only 3 days, they literally just broke in half at the bridge piece. I did nothing to break them. The manager of this store flat out refused to refund me or exchange them claiming they broke from daily use when I only used them for 3 days! Very tacky when we spent well over 4 grand at the resort. So dont buy from that store, they wont guarantee their stuff wont break.

"Amazing Place!"

Stunning locale, hotel and views! The rooftop pool is incredible and the tuna and guac are way too good. This was our first trip to PV and it did not disappoint - can't wait to go back! So many great things about this hotel and PV. If you are an animal lover, hopefully you'll get a chance to see some of the coatis - so cute! Also, listen for the call of the chachalacas - they are exclusive to that area. Our favorite restaurant was down at the resort at the beach (which is awesome to be able to go between the properties & pools) and the steakhouse. Views can't be beat!If you choose to do the hike - be prepared - it's definitely not for beginners! Amazing views but quite a challenge.The only negative was that we had to pack up and go back to the real world!

"Just Country Hopping"

Alberto, Arianna and especially Carlos, took care of and doted on us from the moment we arrived. This restaurant is meticulously decorated, down to the very last detail. From the service to the red tree that is the focal point of this newly birthed establishment, to the chandelier (that will be going in my foyer by the way), major kudos to the ToTo toilets, then the chairs and the curtains. But wait, those werent even the highlights of my night, it was hands down the female saxophonist. Being a lover of saxophone and violin covers, I thought watching a man play the saxophone was sexy..s**ta woman playing the saxophone in a cocktail dress is by far the sexiest thing Ive ever witnessed in my life. This establishment pulled out all the stops. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

"Beautiful Mousai"

I travel very often and Hotel Mousai is the most beautiful with the best staff resort i have ever been to. We had a designated butler named Ernesto Ornelas and he checked in with us every day to help plan our daily activities. He was attentive and professional and made the experience more pleasant. Every restaurant on the property had 5 star service. One of the host staff Claudia Molina always went above and beyond when taking care of us. She remembered who we were and always answered questions regarding the dining experience. The Hotel Mousai met and went beyond our expectations.

"Wedding Anniversary at The Mousai"

My husband and I had the most wonderful time at Hotel Mousai. We stayed there for 4 nights and wish we were able to stay longer. Our butler, Carlos Ramos, helped make our stay so easy, relaxing, and special. Having the ability to easily text Carlos Ramos a question or move dinner reservations was so nice! He also left us an anniversary surprise of chocolate covered strawberries and rose petals in the shape of a heart in the bed on our last night. Aside from the amazing butler experience, the food was absolutely delicious. The all inclusive was worth it as we tried so many different menu items from all the restaurants we visited. Another person wed like to call out is Steven at concierge. He created a nice little planner for us that had all our dinner times, spa reservations and activities all in one place. We really didnt have to think about anything but relaxing and having a good time. Penny at concierge was also a sweetheart. Well definitely be back here again soon!

"Superb Garza Blanca Stay"

We had a great stay at the Garza Blanca for our honeymoon. The food was amazing, the rooms and the views were gorgeous, and the staff were so kind. Chelsea and Marylou at reception helped us with all our needs, even a last minute name change for our Covid swabs to travel (which was very easy and quick). Diego and Rigo helped us at the all inclusive included kayaking and snorkeling adventure. Diego was amazing as our guide and was so kind and happy and enthusiastic for the whole 5 mile tour! Overall we had a great stay and plan to be back!

"Just an incredible time with the family and grandkids"

The rooms far exceed any expectations with beautiful views of the Bay and the surrounding hillsides, each with it's own spa with full kitchens in our case. Turn down service with always a bedside treat. The food was equally good in the restaurants tried, our particular favorite being the Steak House at the bottom of our tower (#4). Mario and Alex gave us particularly great service, remembering us, even to the point of knowing our preferences. Absolute impeccable service-- with always a welcoming smile. Anything asked of the Bell Service was answered the same way, we needing transportation to several excursions. Bell Captain Carlo went way beyond what would normally be expected, finding ways to get us picked up at the Tower and to and from where we needed to go. Joel was equally helpful and accommodating. They are quite the team. Alejandro, at poolside was also wonderful. We couldn't have had a better trip-- and there was eleven of us to take care of. That size group has to have it's challenges-- but we experienced none-- really saying something. We shall return.

"Amazing trip"

What an amazing experience! And thank you to Carlos, the property Bell Captain at Garza Blanca. He met us when we arrived and made sure all our needs were met, and accommodated special requests when they came up. Between five couple and three different suites, that was quite an undertaking. What a beautiful resort, at the foothills of mountains right along the bay. Watching whale families breach the water while having morning coffee was something I've never experienced before. Just an extraordinary stay with excellent customer service all around! Already planning a trip for 2023!

Luz Flores was our housekeeper during the visit. She was phenomenal. We stayed in room 7101. The room was always cleaned daily with fresh towels and whatever else we needed. She made our towels into little swans on our bed. Anytime we needed anything she would provide it. Luz is an amazing asset to your team and she deserves all the raises! On my last day I requested her up to my room and gave her my floral arrangement I was given and told her it would look even better in her casita. I hope to see Luz next time we visit!

"Gorgeous resort and views, and exceptional service"

First time visit for me and my 18 year old daughter, but definitely not our last. Everything was exceptional and went smoothly from pre-arrival to check out. Like other reviewers, the staff and service were amazing - helpful and kind. This is a long review, but hopefully helpful (and in chronological order!).Pre-arrival A few weeks before you arrive, you'll get a nice email from the pre-arrival concierge to help you book transportation, all-inclusive deals, spa, etc. Victor was super helpful and answered all my questions including dress code for the resort restaurants. We skipped the all-inclusive package because we're not big eaters or drinkers, and we booked our transportation directly with Vallarta Transfers & Incentives (highly recommend!).ServiceThe staff is the best. Tip them well because they work really hard to make this a true 5-star vacation. A few shout outs:Geovani - can't say enough about our server for breakfast at The Terrace/Hiroshi. Funny, warm, kind, genuine. Gustavo - bellmanNathaly - helped with pre-arrival questions, checked us in, checked us out (all without hiccup)Rosy - concierceRicardo, Jorge, Angel - North RooftopEliu, Francisco - NoiAlberto, Daniel - DaoSamai, Luis - Hiroshi, The TerraceLilian - housekeepingAmazing musicians in the South lobby and North rooftop pool (flutist, pianist -- thank you!)Spa ImagineExceptional people and services at the spa. We got our nails done by Carmen and Anahi - excellent job. We got some waxing services - also terrific. My daughter got the detox facial which comes with a complimentary hour of hydrotherapy -- amazing. I got the deep tissue massage with the complimentary hour of hydrotherapy. Don't miss the hydrotherapy services, it's a guided circuit of hot and cold water therapy. Rosario was our guide and she was wonderful. My deep tissue massage was THE BEST (ask for Xochitl, she's amazing)Food We tried 4 of the 5 restaurants on the Hotel Mousai/Garza Blanca properties. Presentation and portion sizes were perfect for us (note - we're not big eaters). Every meal started with a little complimentary taster dish from the chef - always delicious and innovative.Noi - dinner for our first and last nights because the food is simply amazing. Get the drinks -- all beautifully made and unusual. Highly recommend the PAPPARDELLE AL RAGU DI AGNELLO, the ORECCHIETTE SALSICCIA LUCANICA E CARCIOFO, and the MELA pizza. Hiroshi - Hana Lychee sake, popcorn shrimp, and any sushi roll. For dessert, the miso creme brulee is very good but a bit rich and heavy. Go for the coconut cake, totally different.Blanca Blue - we ordered apps from the Pre-Hispanic menu and everything was excellent. Tuna ceviche was outstanding.Dao - gorgeously designed and decorated, but the food was not quite up to par with the other restaurants. My daughter got the walnut shrimp and the breading was so hard that it was almost inedible. In hindsight, I should have sent it back. But it didn't mar our dinner. Service was great - Alberto saw that we were chilly so they brought us lovely wraps to wear (!!)Rooftop food - guacamole, chips, salsa, coconut shrimp, tuna ceviche - all outstandingBreakfast at The Terrace/Hiroshi - see my separate review on that, but you must get the french toast and any of the smoothies or wellness drinks. SuiteWe booked a regular suite in the North Tower but Nathaly at check-in upgraded us to an Ultra suite in the South Tower because she knew that I wanted to have 2 beds instead of 1 King bed. We loved our suite on the 9th floor. Total privacy - not another building or person in sight. The iPad controls worked for us and we were discovering new elements to the Suite every day. Extensive music library for the built in speakers in your suite and on the terrace. The private jacuzzi on our terrace with the hammock were perfect for us. Daily housekeeping and turn down service make this place special. Gym and poolsWe hung out at the South and North rooftops and both were great - slightly different vibes. The North was more chill. South seemed to have a younger crowd. We used the gyms at both towers and they had great equipment - no one was ever there, so we had the gym to ourselves. The North gym is open from 7-11 and the South gym is open 24 hours. I would have loved to see a Peloton bike at the gym!Beach and ShoppingThere's a trolley that goes all around the Hotel Mousai/Garza Blanca properties every 10-15 minutes. We walked down to the beach and back up the first day and it was fairly easy, but take the Trolley if you don't do well with stairs (there's lots!). Beach service was good, but you're right below the main pool at the family resort of Garza Blanca, so expect delays. The lounge chairs were great - each had a personal sun blocker that you could use to shield your face so you can read a book. The water was nice if a bit cold (this was March). We didn't do any beach activities but we saw families do Banana Boat rides, kayak, and deep sea fishing. We walked around Terraluna during the day (totally dead) and in the evening and there are some cute stores, but it's just getting going, so pretty quiet. We didn't do any of the music/food events at Terraluna, but the space itself is new, beautifully designed and decorated. The carousel is cute. If there was one thing I would improve, it's the ability to communicate via text with the concierge. Rosy was our personal concierge, but the only way to reach her was by calling from your suite or stopping by the concierge desks in the two towers. I ended up booking my spa appointments directly with Spa Imagine, which was not a big deal, but if there was a way to communicate via text, that would have been more convenient because the majority of the time you're not in your suite to call. Forever memorable trip. We will definitely be back to this very special place!

Spent a week in an ultra suite north tower,Firstly the resort is spectacular and kept in pristine condition. We had a butler, Carlos, who attended to all our restaurant and any other resort reservations we needed, he was always close by if we wanted anything.Two of the pool attendants, Maggie and Ian were amazing, working so hard to make our rooftop experience a great one, THANK YOU BOTH.All of the restaurants were great, food was always hot and nicely presented, special shout-outs to Geovani at Hiroshis and Ivan at Dao. Both great employees and great people.Throughout the resort the staff are awesome and made our stay a memorable one, so much so that we have already booked again for Easter and will be back again in the fall.

"Service at Hotel Mousai"

Our first visit to Hotel Mousai was for my birthday in March 2022. We are Elite members with the resort, so we were assigned an Elite Concierge representative named Alexis. He was very professional and assisted us with the check in process and anything else we needed during our stay. A perk of staying at Mousai is the butler assigned for your stay. Our Butler during this trip was Carlos Ramos, and he was amazing! For my birthday, he reserved a rooftop cabana at the North tower for us. A friend on the staff had a birthday cake delivered to the hotel, Carlos and Alexis arranged to bring it up to the pool while we were there. The staff at the pool sang happy birthday and provided champagne for the occasion. When we returned to the room, we found out that Carlos arranged for housekeeping to clean our room and had it decorated with balloons! It was definitely a memorable trip because of those two and I would highly recommend staying at Mousai when you visit Puerto Vallarta.

We had a fabulous time. My husband, myself and our two girls ages 10-12. Safe, clean, accommodating, luxurious and not so big that its loud and annoying. Perfect size resort. Beach was fun for playing and lounging, kids safe in the water. All restaurants were quite good and room service was such an important plus for tired kids in evenings. Room was perfect. We could not think of anything to say negative. Perfectly priced. Always worry about the wine choices on an all inclusive and they were really good. Never pressured for the sales pitch. It was all just fabulous. I hope we come back!

"another amazing trip"

We have stayed at Mousai in July 2020 for the very first time. It was fantastic! From the location to the great customer service. Our butler, Carlos went above and behind to meet our needs. (Sometimes I can be drama queen). This is why we have decided to go back. This time we stayed at the second tower (Mousai South). this is more contemporary and more beautiful. The design is amazing. the customer service was at it's best. My deepest respect to the staff who work tirelessly to impress and help the guests. When you stay at South tower make sure to get to know the front desk staff: Rosy, Jovana, Natalie, and the tall, dark, and handsome guy who helped me to figure out how to place a toll free call to US. He worked on the morning of 3/28 about 11 am. This tower had 2 new restaurant with amazing service and great food: Italian and contemporary Chinese. make sure to try them both and say hello to the amazing manager Adrian. The rooftop pool staff always nice and ready to serve you every minutes. I love my waiter Ignacio who remembered us from our first trip. Don't forget to visit the shopping center Tierra Luna. Stop by at Karuma restaurant and enjoy grill meats. If you stay at Ultra Mousai suite try the free hydro message therapy at the spa. Overall a great place to stay. to the owner of Mousai: "Please give a nice bonus to these amazing employees".

"Good stay"

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Garza Blanca. The restaurant's wait staff and housekeeping were all top-notch. We had the one-bedroom oceanfront room which was beautiful and everything you need is in the room. The beds were super comfy and luxurious. The main pool area I personally find really small and cramped for such a big resort. There is lots of walking if want or you can be lazy and have the trolley take you places. There is a carousel for the kids to enjoy, not much in pool activities if that's what you are looking for. Check-in was smooth and easy. A quick taxi ride into old town. walking to old town is not recommended.

"Truly a 5 Star Experience - Best Resort We've Been to!"

My wife and I went for our 5 year Anniversary/Babymoon. We had an AMAZING time. Everything was exceptional service, spa, food, property, drinks. Long review, but lots of details. We stayed in an Ultra Mousai Suite on the 10th floor in the North Tower (original tower). People/serviceAbsolutely outstanding - best we've had and we have been fortunate to travel to a number of resorts claiming 5 stars. Hotel Mousai stands above them all. Shout outs below for amazing service throughout our trip:Edgar at the lobby bar great virgin cocktails for my wife!Diego Server at DaoRicardo, Alan, Claudia, Carlos, Yessina, and Heriberto Rooftop service was AWESOMEEduardo breakfast at Hiroshi Daniel BocadosFlor and Saudi Suite Service/HousekeepingThe whole landscaping/property maintenance teamSpaPart of the Ultra Package is Hydrotherapy I HIGHLY recommend. We did it every day for our whole week! It takes relaxing to a whole new level. Rosario was wonderful!! I cannot remember the gentleman that helped us he was fantastic as well!FoodBest all-inclusive food weve ever had. Each restaurant had some incredible dishes. There were very few things that we would only call good. Hiroshi Mango roll with the spicy eel sauce, shrimp tempura, wasabi RibeyeDao spicy beef gyoza, honey-glazed walnut shrimpBocados Caesar salad presentation is awesome, Street taco, Tenderloin with Cabernet DemiNoi Crema di zucca e coscia di quaglia (WOW)Blanca Blue Roasted Cream of Corn, tamale, short rib, skirt steakRooftop North - popcorn chicken (trust me), baja shrimp tacos, coconut shrimp, tuna steakRoom service curly fries (better than Arbys, I swear)Breakfast at Hiroshi French toast, burritoFresh fruit dishes every morning were amazing anywhere you went DrinksAll craft cocktails with top-shelf liquors I was truly impressed. There was no well liquor present. I tried more than a few cocktails and every single one was truly hand crafted as they should be. Now, Im spoiled! For those who dont/cant drink they have a mocktail menu which was great for my wife. Also, it was very easy to order a virgin anything and they tasted great. Again, quality was top notch. There is a big buffet down at Blanca Blue worth trying at least once. PropertyHot tub sunsets were absolutely incredibleBoth hotels are set up fairly high. There is a shuttle to take you down to Garza Blanca, but we walked most times for some exercise because we only went to the gym once.Gym has nice equipment and the best views of any gym Ive been toNorth tower faces the ocean directly (happy we stayed in the north tower)South tower has more mountain + water viewsNorth rooftop pool was great I just wish it was a little more lively at times. Music was pretty chill, but we got VERY excited when there was a DJ to change it up a little bit. The only reason we noticed was because the music selection changed volume did not. Whale watching (Nov-March I believe) we could see them from all over Room, spa, rooftop. It was amazing. ActivitiesKayak to Los Arcos long ride, but worth it! Saw some spotted eagle rays, sting rays, some fish, and even a sea turtle popped his head out of the water as we were passing by. Hike to the waterfall I think I did the easy one, but it was fun. Lots of rocks to climb over, so could be challenging if you have any mobility issues. Pace was fairly slow though. Waterfall was just ok nothing crazy. RandomVibes definitely a more relaxed resort with mostly couples. My wife and I are early 30s. There were other younger couple too, but many more middle age/older couples. We had a small resort credit, but ended up not using it there were lots of limitations and we didnt understandCovid testing was very unorganized -- would be great if there was priority for Mousai guests or the appointment times were honored. Just a messy line. Butler we had one with the ultra suite, but felt like the concierge would have ok. He made things convenient a few times, but we did not see him too much aside from initially setting up reservations for food, spa, hike/kayakWe will 100% be back again!

"Excellent Family Stay!"

Can't say enough great things about this resort. Our family of 5 enjoyed 5 nights all inclusive at the Garza Blanca. The 3 bedroom Panoramic Suite was AMAZING. So much space, and incredible views. Great food, and excellent room service. Staff at the pools/beach were very efficient, and everyone was working their tail off to please the guests. Definitely felt spoiled at this place, and would return in a heartbeat. Side note, my wife and I were able to eat at Mousai one night, which was a nice night out for us, while the kids enjoyed activities and room service of their own. Our servers Christian and Franco, at the Japanese dining in Mousai were outstanding. It should be noted that check in and check out were very smooth, from the bellman, to Stephanie, and really every employee we had an interaction with. Great job by everyone, and thank you for a memorable vacation for our family.

Weve been here a few times before and absolutely love it here! The resort is absolutely beautiful with amazing ocean and mountain views and access. The service however is the best part! The servers, butlers, pool concierge, and housekeeping staff all seem to be focused on making your experience as excellent as possible. Our butlers were second to none - Felipe and Jose - they spoiled us! And if youre looking for a wonderful spa experience, Imagine Spa is well with the visit. Garza Blanca has made some amazing additions and upgrades since we were last here in 2019, which just added to the experience. With 8+ restaurants on site, you could spend a luxurious vacation here without leaving the resort (although I would recommend you spend time in and around PV - so much to do!!)This is not a resort for those looking for a low-budget getaway, but if youre looking for a luxurious vacation for you and your family, I would highly recommend GB!

We have visited Garza Blanca many times. We consider it a home away from home and have always had an excellent experience. The staff - from the bellman upon arrival and every single service to follow- are the kindest and most accommodating. A special mention to our amazing concierge upon arrival, Gloria, who welcomed us with open arms and scheduled all our reservations. She has a special touch that she brings to her role. The Room Service is amazingly efficient, even at peek busy times, and the room service attendants will show up at your door with delicious meals and warm smiles .The entire team at the Upper pool, in particular, Moises and Miguel, are so attentive, kind and provide outstanding service! Another special mention to the housekeeping staff in Tower 4, especially Navididad, and Anastasia who took such great care of us and left our room sparkling every single day and evening. At the lower pool, Ivan educated us on the selecting the best tequilas, and even a little Spanish language tutoring. Providing great service and making sure we always had enough shade, he always goes the extra mile for the guests.ALL the staff at Bocados are true professionals and will provide wow you with their superior service. They are so good at what they do, and each time we went for dinner, we left feeling so impressed at how well they all work together to provide a fine dining experience for their guests.Blanca Blue Mexican cuisine is amazing, and Jose will take excellent care of you. He has great recommendations and is also a true Pro!The Trolley rides are SO much fun- the drivers greet their riders warmly without fail, and always play great music and bring ALL the good vibes to the short commute up the hill to the other parts of the resort.Finally, a very special mention to Gonzalo, who we have had the pleasure of getting to know over the last 7 years of coming to Garza Blanca PV. Gonzolo is amazing at his job, knows his clients by name, and is just a truly wonderful person! We always go out of our way to set up in his section- because we know he will take care of us like family:) The entire team across all the departments of hard working people employed at this resort work with each other and their clients to go above and beyond , consistently. We love it here, and well be back! Next year, and all the years that follow- thats how much we love it!

"The best PV has to offer. "

Beautiful resort, beautiful staff. Our group of four had a lovely week at Garza Blanca in PV. We had stayed there before in one of the towers on the mountain and were awe struck by that facility. This time we stayed in one of the towers on the beach and we loved it..!! The two bedroom unit was perfect. The waves were crashing 78 or 80 feet from our balcony. What other resort would deliver potted flowers to the unit which blossomed all week. The staff were there at all times doing their very best to make our stay the best it could be.

"Garza Blanca Kids Club"

We had a great stay at Garza Blanca. The suite was amazing the people warm and welcoming. The Service was exceptional. We loved the pools and the beach. The food and drinks were fresh and high quality. Great coffee drinks as well. Our kids loved the kids club: Shary and Paula were kind and inclusive and the boys enjoyed every minute with them feeding turtles and making crafts. Thank you!

"It is top notch in so many ways."

This was my second visit to this resort. It is top notch in so many ways. But, this time, I had the pleasure of partnering with a butler. Lillith absolutely made my stay the most comfortable, from modifying restaurant bookings to having an aroma scented room each evening and everything in between. Thank you! My other strong review was on the rooftop of tower 6, Caesar ensured I had the best setup for each of my individual stays, based on my preferences from the days before. Never missing any personal detail.

"The price we pay to be here is worth it. Amazing food, luxurious accommodations, top of the line amenities, gorgeous spa, and most importantly incredibly friendly and hospitable staff."

Second time visiting Hotel Mousai and I cannot recommend this resort enough. My wife and I are not wealthy, but the price we pay to be here is worth it. Amazing food, luxurious accommodations, top of the line amenities, gorgeous spa, and most importantlyincredibly friendly and hospitable staff. I cant remember everyones names, but the bartenders at Noi, Oscar and Alonzo, were so much fun and provided such incredible service. That bar became our local before and after dinner, and those two always had a spot for us. Also charming was Alan, who adjusted our umbrella more times than I could thank him for at the rooftop bar. Definitely do the all inclusive deal, if for nothing else than breakfast, pool drinks/ snacks, and Hiroshis restaurant. Pro tip: tip, tip, tip. These folks are worth it.

"Garza Blanca is incredible"

We stayed at Hotel Mousai last August 2021 and had an exceptional experience. We wanted to get away from the winter snow and decided to come back and stay at the same property. Everything about this property is first class. Tafer Resorts has done an incredible job with all of the details, food is like a five-star restaurant for every meal, premium alcohol and specialty drinks, and every staff member we encountered treats us like we are family. Abigail provided daily service to our room and incorporated so many special touches each day. She also noticed what we were using more of and made sure to stock those items in larger quantities.

"Better than 5 stars! The most magical place Ive ever been, BEST VACATION EVER."

The staff is AMAZING! Garza Blanca is beautiful, nestled in the perfect place, between mountains and ocean. The beds are out of this world, youll sleep better than you ever have. The hammocks On every balcony will ensure a A+ nap. Anything you eat at Garza is an experience, some of the best we have ever had. We looked forward to every meal. Everything is absolutely spectacular, but the staff made the biggest impact on us. From Victor & Joel at the front, to Mike & Stephen at the pool, Cesar and Fransico at booking adventures, to Cesar & Rigoberto at Musaui roof bar, to Christian at Heroshi, Tito with the hikes and fun, & Jeanes beautiful personality! Housekeeping was beyond perfect, everyday. I wish I could name everyone we interacted with because each one was personal and wonderful. We cant wait to get back to Garza Blanca! If you have an opportunity to go, RUN! You will love every part of your vacation.

Dao was fantastic. Appetizers: the shrimp toast and hot & sour soup slapped. Id order that again. Lo mein entree was delicious and the portion was enormous. I am not small either. Angel and Alberto were our severs and they looked out for us on a second-to-second basis. One could not really ask for better service. Dao doesnt have the views of the other on resort restaurants but the food and service make it well worth the visit.

"Our Butler Carlos Pulido was an amazing help during our stay. Always made himself available, all day long!"

Since the very moment we arrived everyone was very nice and helpful. Our Butler Carlos Pulido was always offering his assistance in the morning and throughout the day. Always stayed in touch making sure we had a reservation in place at all times, if we needed it. He was always available to assist with any task we needed assistance with! If we were at the roof top pool, he would come in person to make sure everything was perfect for us. Carlos always greeted us with a smile. I know we werent the only customers he had to assist, and never made us feel he was too busy for us. Thanks to Carlos our stay was very relaxing!

"Great hotel"

We stayed in Garza Blanca in February 2022. We booked our vacation to a different hotel months ago, called Sunset Plaza Beach Resort, which was terrible. Once we went to that hotel and realized how terrible it is, we decided to cancel and book Garza Blanca the day we arrived. Fortunately, there was an available room. Garza Blanca is such a beautiful hotel with great service. Garza Blanca saved our vacation! I definitely suggest this place to everyone.

"Garza Blanca Never Ceases To Amaze!"

We just returned from the most memorable vacation with friends at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta. My wife and I became members five years ago and weve been back every year sinceit seems like every year is better than the last. We brought friends this time (usually we bring our kids) and they couldnt stop raving about this gem of a place that seems like paradise. From the moment we arrived and were greeted by Carlo (the captain of the bellboys) and all the staff, we were literally treated like royalty. The food was excellent, the service by the pools each day was incredible and the breathtaking views from the panoramic rooms are unbelievable. We even got lucky and saw a pod of whales jumping in the ocean from our balcony one morningit was amazing! If youre searching for a place to stay in Puerto Vallarta, youve found ityou will absolutely love it!

"Hotel Mousai the Beverly Hills resort of Puerto Vallarta!!"

My fiancé and I just returned from a fabulous eight day trip at hotel mousai. We enjoyed the resort so much and the people working there that we decided next year we will be getting married there. Here are some of the reasons why I feel hotel Masai has been one of the best resorts I have ever stayed in and I have travel the world for over 20 years and I stayed at many five star properties.We stayed in the north tower in a corner suite and it was fabulous. Modern and clean with a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean. We ate at all the restaurants on the property and all the food was phenomenal. I would like to mention a few people who truly made our vacation special. At the rooftop pool in the north tower, Ricardo our pool waiter was fabulous. Also our pool concierge Alan always made sure our towels were dry and always found us sun loungers to lay in . Alan went out of a way to treat us like friends. He is a one of a kind hard worker and he deserves promotion. At the restaurant Dao The food was incredible and every wait staff that waited on us throughout the week were very welcoming and the service was top-notch. I would also like to thank Juan Carlos the manager at Dao For treating us like royalty. He often came over during our dining experience to make sure that everything was OK and he spent a good 20 minutes talking to us about the different aspects of the menu. although people say the restaurant can be noisy at times they are tirelessly working on trying to fix the sound by baffling the walls in the future. Hirioshi, was my fiancés favorite restaurant, the sushi was to die for and the hot sake was amazing. A couple shout outs to Abraham and Aley and miguel our waiters who went out of their way so many times to make sure our dinners were unforgettable! Also, Alonzo the bartender at Hiroshi deserves a mention his professionalism and willingness to get you whatever you desire even though he works tirelessly and often very busy. Bodegos The steakhouse was phenomenal. The fillets were chard perfectly on the outside and tender and moist in the inside all the sides were wonderful the French onion soup and the table made Caesar salad were delicious. The view was phenomenal and the service was great. I would highly recommend trying the steakhouse you will not regret. Martin our waiter at the steakhouse is very knowledgeable and very service orientated he has been working there for five years and if you can you should ask if he is available to wait on you. I also would like to mention the food at the rooftop pools was amazing the watermelon salad with the mozzarella, the popcorn chicken, the shrimp tacos, the onion rings the tuna ceviche and the coconut shrimp were all to die for. Some of the best pool food I have had at any resort in the world. Of all my travels around the world I have stayed in many five star resorts with Michelin chefs. Hotel Mousai for being an optional all inclusive resort has had the best food I have ever tasted at an all inclusive resort, pool food at lunch and the dinner food at all the specialty restaurants were five star taste and the service equally matched. What makes the resort special in my opinion is the people who work there who tirelessly go out of their way to make your vacation memorable. I also would like to thank Angelica who was our house keeping attendant who cleaned our room daily and left special touches of care daily. Last but not least I would like to thank Carlos Ramos are Butler who went out of his way multiple times throughout the eight days to get us things outside the property, to make reservations for tours, to make reservations for restaurants, to make reservations for the spa. If I had to tell you one thing that we will miss the most is the genuine caring feeling that we thought Carlos gave us. We have had many Butler throughout the years and I will unequivocally say that Carlos Ramos was the best we have ever had. His attention to detail and his warm kindness and his willingness to go out of his way to get you whatever you want was truly a luxury and he made our stay unforgettable and a memory we will never forget. Carlos is a true professional and his service is unparalleled. I truly wish to thank you again Carlos for making our vacation spectacular. to all the wonderful people we have met I want to thank all of you again we will see you next year for our wedding. Dont hesitate to book this resort, you will not be disappointed.

I stayed at the Hotel Mousai for a week in the end of February. The place is amazing but their service was top tier. My personal butler named Eduardo went above and beyond to assure my comfort. Definitely a place that you would love to visit and the way you are taken care if is unparalleled without question. This place received the 5 diamond award for a reason and the service reflects this. I've nothing but praise for this place. If you're as lucky as we were you'll have Eduardo to guide you along as well .

"We had an absolutely wonderful experience!"

My wife, daughter and I stayed at Garza Blanca for our first time during the last week of February. We had an absolutely wonderful experience! The property is beautiful, the location is fantastic and most of all, the service was spectacular! We stayed in one of the Penthouses. It was a perfect size for the three of us as well as one visitor we had along for half of our stay. All had our own rooms and full ensuite in each. The Butlers were great to work with and were very attentive to all of our needs. Never had to look for them, they always came to heck in on our stay and took care of all reservations, transportation and activities. The pool was relaxing and fun. The pool service was always friendly, helpful and fast. It was a week long paradise! We fully recommend Garza Blanca as we already look forward to our return trip next January!

"Jan. 29 2022-Feb. 5 2022"

There were two issues that marred an otherwise perfect week.1. We were subjected to a quite lengthy, hard sell time-share pitch upon our arrival lessening our vacation time. 2. We were taken to an inferior room (I paid for the 2 bedroom Panorama Suite with a hot tub on the balcony). When I complained they blamed it on Costco Travel. We were then taken to the proper room.These two issues made us wary of other trickery.Aside from these two distasteful events everything else was fine. It is a lovely resort with excellent service and very good food.Too bad these things happened.

We have been coming to Hotel Mousai for 6 years now (10 stays in total) and absolutely love our experience. Service is incredible. the views are breathtaking and now with the addition of the South Tower and restaurants, the choices of where to eat are even better. We especially loved our experience at Tao, The food was so good we are going back for a second night. Ample servings, lots of choices and great service from Alberto and Alberto...a fabulous team! Thanks for your attentive service, suggestions and overall fabulous experience. We also want to give a huge shout out to Carlos our butler. He does not miss a beat and has taken care of every detail of our experience. All the staff at the infinity pool are top notch. Another shout out to Alan for keeping us comfortable and his friendship for our last 4 visits, Ricardo, Ceasar, Maetteo, Jennifer and so many more. And Paulina for our checkin experience. And for our visits before, Jenny and Alissa from the Concierge team and Abraham at Hirisho. You are all such an incredible team!

We will NEVER vacation anywhere but Garza Blanca Puerta Vallarta. The service alone is unapparelled. From the bellboy's greeting us upon arrival, especially Carlo who is our favorite Bellboy at the Garza Blanca entrance. Carlo has been my personal tour guide for every visit. The entire Garza staff has always taken such good care of us, but there are a few that I will never forget. Carlo from Garza Blanca front entrance, Ramon from Hotel Mousai lobby, and Nathaly at Hotel Mousai front desk are my life long friends and I can't wait to see them again!

"Having Issues booking a property we purchased after our tour!"

I purchased in December of 2021. I have called multiple times a day for the past month and a half to book said property. Also, I made a substantial down payment for the property; to be ghosted is highly unacceptable. I have email and whatsapp messaged my concierge to NO response. NOR has a mortgage payment been debited from the working card I put on file at the time of purchase. I have never left a review on anything, I feel like this is the only way I can get a response and a working email address. If I have lost my deposit due to foreclosure to an error on you alls part will not be good!

"Amazing views, hike, and food"

Each room in Garza Blanca is huge with fantastic views. All the restaurants have 5 star food and service with great views.The hotel is not good for the handicap nor very small children. Lots of steps and lack of rails. The intermediate hike to the waterfall is a unique experience. It is treacherous. So, not meant for anyone with any body issues nor under the age of 10 or over 70. It was a great experience for me at 49 and my teenage Boys. It took 3 hours. 10am-1pm of mountain climbing. They currently do not have tennis courts. If you are here for a week, I recommend an excursion. We will come back.

Within moments of getting out of the Mercedes van transport, we were seated with a staff member to schedule and plan all meals and activitiesit was so impressive!We were escorted to the rooftop pool for lunch and drinks while they took our luggage to the room. We met our butler, Ernesto Ornelas after lunch and we immediately knew that this was going to be an awesome stayhe was so incredibly helpful and friendly.

Amazing, Amazing and Amazing!! First I will acknowledge the staff who made our trip so wonderful. Joel the bellman for his great demeanor and professionalism. Tito at the main pool for making us feel like the only family that mattered. Bonnie at the concierge desk was so incredible. Everything from her phone calls to see if we were in need, helping us secure dinner reservations and her warm and welcoming presence. To my brothers Moses and Alejandro up at the tower 4 pool. Our daily conversations, stories and laughter will be remembered by me and my family for the rest of our days and hope to continue a friendship forever. The absolutely amazing gals at kids club, Sherry and Paola!! Our girls felt so loved and welcome. The crafts and adventures were fun and surprising. From keychains to feeding real turtles!! We never worried when in their care. Sherry remembered our daughters names after a few hours one day and invited them from the beach to play and make bracelets, giving us some quiet relaxing time. Last but not least our security man Mr. Javier Suarez X!! I watched you from afar and admired how much passion you put into your job and the safety of your beach. It wasnt just your professionalism, it was your heart! You made everyone you spoke to feel important and no exceptions were made with my family. Our conversation on our last day cemented our love for you my friend. We so look forward to returning to this wonderful hotel that is so beautifully ran with so many fantastic people.

"10 out of 10"

This was our first trip to P.V. and our first experience at this property. It was also our first vacation since Covid began. We came for a quick 4 day escape with friends and that is exactly what we got. A much needed escape from the daily grind. The setting and atmosphere at Hotel Mousai were exceptional. The food was phenomenal. I could eat their ceviche, tuna sashimi and jicama tacos all day every day. The relaxation experienced at the rooftop pool, with that stunning view, or from our own patio in the jacuzzi and hammock are unmatched. Finally, while the service from all of the staff was top notch, a special shout out goes to Carlos Ramos for his personal attention and service provided to us. He truly helped make our experience at Hotel Mousai stand out. Even after we left and experienced an issue at the gate, Carlos made himself available and assisted us so that we didn't have to miss our flight home. Thanks again Carlos and to the entire staff for helping make our trip stress free.

"Very nice place, and improving"

Stayed at Hotel Mousai for an anniversary trip, our first to PV. We stayed on the 8th floor, corner of South Tower with a nice view of the mountains and ocean, which was not terribly obstructed by the other towers. The hotel is very clean and well-decorated and sits on a large property that incorporates also the north tower, residences, and a nice open-space mall area with shops, a bodega, event spaces, and a restaurant. They seem to be growing rapidly and there was work being done everywhere however it was not intrusive on our stay. We ate at Blanca Blue (twice), Hiroshi, and Bocados, with Balance Blue being our favorite. The pools atop the south and north tower are great. Waitstaff everywhere was very friendly and helpful. The room was a suite with wrap around balcony, hammock, and hot tub. Large shower with bench, fancy toilet and large bathroom area generally.The property generally has much to offer, and other than a fishing excursion we did not leave it over the course of 5 days. The all-inclusive package was worth it and convenient to use everywhere. Some items on menus were excluded, though only where expected (e.g., bottles, lobster, wagyu, etc.).Two gripes: the regular WiFi is slow, and the pre-arrival concierge service miscommunicated certain information regarding a charter, which took much time to resolve. However, after finally getting through to hotel management and, specifically, speaking with Fernanda, she handled the situation appropriately.We would stay here again if coming back to PV, and the property lends itself to larger groups.

"A great all inclusive, with no kids!"

A great all inclusive spot, with no kids! The food was really good, and while the cocktails werent always perfect, the service was impeccable. Diego on the rooftop took care of us everyday and was an exemplar of Mousais service. You can counter the weak cocktails by just ordering alcohol on the rocks, and getting juice/soda on the side to add. Not a deal breaker, just something to account for!

"Mousai is very nice"

Irving and Franco at the Japanese Hiroshi's restaurant provided the best service and their food recommendations were delicious. All of the staff at this hotel are very professional. The rooms in the Hotel Mousai are large and we love the private patio with jacuzzi. It is inconvenient that you need a cab to get to downtown or even to take a walk. It isn't a walking beach.The room doesn't have a dresser drawer to organize my clothes, so I'm living out of my suitcase. The closet has shelves that don't function as well as drawers. Rooftop pool is beautiful and the food is very good. I will probably return. But I prefer being on the beach near PV proper.

"Vacation"

We absolutely adored the Hotel Mousai. The best drinks we had were in the lobby bar of the south tower from Oscar and Orlando. They were very knowledgeable and friendly. Maggie, the pool concierge, in the South Tower was wonderful and always checking on us. Geovani at the Terrace was a delight everyday at breakfast. He has a heart for service and attention to detail. I hope to see him move up in the company. He will be an amazing asset. Ignacio at the South Tower rooftop was also this way. He was always checking and in was friendly and went above and beyond.our buyer Ruben was always looking out for us and checking in to ensure we were doing everything we wanted. We will definitely be back.

"Honeymoon to Remember"

This is our second time at Hotel Mousai and were already planning our next vacay. If youre looking for the best of the best, youve definitely found it. The service is top tier, the food is world class, and the views are spectacular. Rosy who checked us in was super helpful in planning our stay. Carlos our butler is extremely diligent in making sure our every need is taken care of. And tonight at dinner Irving and Franco gave us the best service ever at Hiroshi. I cannot recommend this place enough.

"Great service at Garza Blanca"

Spent a great 8 days at Garza Blanca / PV. Beautiful facilities and grounds. But what makes the resort exceptional is the service of the staff. All are friendly and helpful but 3 who really stood out: Joe Antonio Perez from the AquaAzul pool bar was incredibly attentive without going overboard; seems he always knew just when we were ready for something. Roberto (butler) was a great help with reservations and follow-up on questions & requests. And Jorgé the bellman at the front door did a good job to make sure nothing was left in our taxi. This place is a little pricey, but at a time when others are making excuses for poor service, the staff at this place delivers. :-)Downside: the shower in our room was in the jacuzzi bathtub. Big step over to enter. If you can manage to climb up into it, getting down out of it will near result in splaying yourself on the floor. Definitely NOT accessible. At a minimum, they should install a step (slip-resistant) and a grab bar where the glass door opens.

"Another Great Visit"

We just returned from our second stay (with our friends who are members). It was as wonderful this time as it was the first time. We again stayed in Tower 5 (mountainside) in a two-bedroom panoramic suite--awesome!. Everyone we encountered gave super service. A few shout-outs: Rosa and Jasmin (hope I'm spelling correctly) who took wonderful care of our suite (please tell them Miss Carol says thanks again for the coffee), the trolley drivers who are so much fun, and it was wonderful to see Gloria (concierge desk) who remembered us from our last stay. We spent our pool time at the pool by Towers 4-5-beautiful setting. As others have noted, it is a little frustrating that so many lounge chairs are saved for owners who never show up--but that would be my only criticism. Looking forward to visiting again in the future.

This resort is definitely 5 star from views, to service, to food. The rooftop pool is amazing and was always easy to get lounge beds. Because this is an all inclusive optional resort you are not getting typical all inclusive meals and services. You are getting restaurant quality and luxury hotel service. The drinks were amazing and staff so friendly. You will not be disappointed booking here!

My wife and I visited here for our honeymoon and we were very impressed with the level of service provided. Diego, the doorman, always greeted us with a warm smile and a genuine willingness to assist. Along with Erick one of the trolley drivers who was an embodiment of fun and excitement during our short interactions with him. Alejandro and Luis had great knowledge of the hotel offering at the restaurant Noi and guided us through the menu in order to have a fantastic dinner, and the trip was made exceptional with the service of Guillermo and Dylan at the pool. Truly the only place to be when coming to Puerto Vallarta.

"Hotel Mousai Puerto Vallarta"

Hotel Mousai continues to be our favorite resort! Truly a 5 star experience. The staff is amazing from the beginning to the end of your trip, and truly cares about your experience. Amazing food, drinks, and of course views! The head butler, Sergio, made sure we had everything we needed each day and that we had nothing to worry about other than having a nice time! They are also very conscious of food allergies at all restaurants which was a plus. We will be back to Hotel Mousai VERY soon!

We would like to personally mention Allan from the rooftop pool, Gerardo and Mateo, who never let our champagne go empty, and last but certainly not least, Ruben Saenz, our butler. He made our stay flawless, seamless and so relaxing. We love Hotel Mousai so much, we plan on getting married there. We cant wait to come to visit again for wedding research.

"HOTEL MOUSAI - Exceeded Expectations ... AGAIN !!!"

After visiting the resort in Feb of 2021, I asked my wife where she would like to celebrate our big anniversary coming up. She pondered many different destinations but much to my delight, chose to come back to Hotel Mousai to try the newly opened South Tower. We've stayed at our fair share of luxury properties but can unequivocally say ... this is our favorite. The service, attention to detail, and the consistent effort to please is far beyond "next level."As mentioned in the title, we had lots of comparisons and expectations to live up to from our first visit. The hotel and its staff didn't disappoint ! No stay (especially in todays pandemic environment) anywhere is free of any glitches ... the difference here is compassion, understanding, and an immediate need to resolve the issue. Our stay was amazing and can't recommend this resort enough! I keep harping on the service and people because its what separates them from most luxury resorts ... From our Tafer travel advisor Ivan Salazar (used him both times to book our trip ... he's awesome !!) to Gretel Luna from Management who went out of her way to make sure our stay was memorable .. to Antonio and all the attentive bellhops ... to Juan and Ruben who wonderfully started off our day with breakfast room service ... to Eden, Maria, Ricardo, and Eric"chips" Estrada who took wonderful care of us at the pool .... To the wonderful staff at our dinners ... so many to mention but specifically Diego, Vicente, and Alberto (DAO) and Alejandro / Leo (NOI) .... its the people that made this vacation special. Throw in the luxurious contemporary rooms with the expansive balconies / hot tub and hammock on the balcony wow !! (Go with the Ultra Corner Mousai Suites - your wife will forever be grateful picture waking up in the morning to the automatic curtains drawing and exposing the 180 degree views) .... plus the MOST AMAZING adult only rooftop pool experience anywhere - we spent the majority of our stay there - unbelievable spot to escape from reality .... plus 2 fantastic new restaurants to add to the already amazing cuisine ... this place !! So much so ... I"m booking our return this week ! Thank you HOTEL MOUSAI !!

"This is the place"

We stayed 4 nights in the north tower as an Ultra guests. It was just my wife and I, celebrating her birthday. Everywhere we went it was her birthday for several days. We found the staff to be very attentive to all details. From the moment we arrived, our butler Ruben took care of everything related to our stay. I purchased a bouquet of flowers for the room and he had extra decorations with balloons and an assortment of deserts from the kitchen with champagne. He scheduled all our dinners for our stay, scheduled our covid test to get home (even though this was several days after we left the resort and near our next location), ordered up some tequila from a tequila house in the mountains behind Boca de Tomatlan that we love and had the bottles delivered to the hotel for us to take back home. Ruben was awesome! We had a couples massage at the spa after hydrotherapy and that was over the top amazing! Our massage therapists Carmen and Xochitl really did a great job! Penny at the front desk was very helpful. Alajandro and Christian delivered a fantastic experience for dinner at Hiroshi (Japanese). Watching the sun set at Hiroshi was a great memory. Miguel and Ivan at Dao were entertaining and informative. The food at Dao (Chinese) was the best! Jesus and Arturo took care of us on the rooftop pool. Jesus did a fine job of celebrating my wife with an unexpected Birthday plate at lunch. We really appreciated all the attention to detail by all the staff. ***RAVE*** The turndown service at night is a must. I didn't know that was a thing and now I don't know how I lived without it. The two maids that did this service for us every night were professionals. We had morning coffee in the rooftop pool all by ourselves one day. The rooftop pool is exactly as you read in other reviews, amazing! We spotted whales in the bay every day. We made some friends at the pool one day and changed our dinner reservations so we could have dinner together. I did that with a quick text to my man Ruben. We finished our stay with a lunch on the rooftop. Your all-inclusive ends at noon but they were more than happy to get our order entered before then and let us stay to enjoy.This is the place for spoiling your significant other, celebrating and enjoying the art of living. They really try to impress from start to finish. I will be back!

"Garza Blanca - overall great stay"

This resort is stunning. They have done an excellent job maintaining it and the location is beautiful. The staff were very attentive, and the food was amazing. Best resort food we've ever had. We didn't have a single bad meal in the 7 days we were there. The only negative is the high pressure sales requesting that we listen to a membership pitch (which they claim is only 45 minutes, but every guest we spoke with said it was 3 hours). We expect the high pressure time share sales at other resorts, but didn't expect it here. Otherwise our stay was great. The beach was a bit disappointing - rocky and you couldn't take long strolls because it's so small - but the pools make up for it. The pool areas were gorgeous and the water temperature perfect!

"Love Hotel Mousai!"

Always wonderful to return to Hotel Mousai! We splurge for the Ultra Suites because we love the view and our own private jacuzzi! We always start and end our days in the jacuzzi! We also loved having a butlerpreviously it was Ernesto Ornelas who was wonderful. But this time, Lilith Alvarez was our butler and she was fantastic!! She followed up on all of our requests incl my peanuts and lip balm. Amazing!! She even brought us extra favorite Nespresso capsules! Unfortunately, there are things even the butlers cannot controlsuch as inconsistent aromatherapy and restocking (towels, glasses, etc) which seems to repeat itself on every visit. The restaurants are good and a few standout. Many guests love the steakhouse but we are not fans of Mexican beef. Dao (chinese) served excellent dumplings but the food can be a bit salty as they seem to be heavy-handed on the soy. But great flavors. Noi (italian) was also very good but the location makes it difficult to keep cool so our dinner was dampened by being too warm and humid. We love the pool side food service!! The ceviche, popcorn chicken and tuna tartare are standouts! Service is always excellent by the entire crew but esp Mateo. Our fave restaurant remains Hiroshiwe love sushi. Lotsa fun. Great staff! And we always appreciate Alejandro for finding Port for us. We look forward to our next visit! The easy seamless Covid testing on site makes it even easier!

"Five star hotel experience"

My wife broke her leg a few days before we arrived at Hotel Mousai, and in spite of that, we had an amazing stay. The staff all bent over backwards to make us comfortable and to make the various parts of the resort accessible for her, including loaning her a Wheelchair and helping her get around the property in it with her crutches. We had a corner suite in the new (south) tower - it was immaculate. Amazing views, our hot tub on the balcony was great, and the room was really top of the line in terms of tech and amenities. The service from EVERYONE was great, but we really want to shout out out butler Carlos for coordinating our special injury-related mobility challenges, and taking care of every need and question we had. He was literally always a text away - I'm not sure he ever stops working.The food was in general quite good for an all-inclusive - and the Japanese restaurant, Hiroshi, was definitely the best food we had while we were there - it was an unexpected surprise. We wound up having dinner there twice.If we had one complaint, it was that some of the restaurants had quite a few items on the menu which were NOT included in the all-inclusive plan. I've seen this at all-inclusives before, but typically only for one item. We don't go to an all-inclusive resort and get an all-inclusive package to go to a restaurant where the best 5 things on the menu all cost extra. We still found plenty to enjoy that was included, though, so this was not a major negative.Aside from that - this property is amazing. From the infinity pool and bar service on the roof, to every detail in the incredibly luxurious suite - this was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. We would highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again.

"The Best Honeymoon EVER"

Firstly, Our entire trip was amazing which we owe to our butler Lilith! From the moment we were introduced, she did everything in her power to make our honeymoon a very special vacation. She took care of our dinner reservations, spa reservations, activity recommendations and every single special request we could ask for. Truly i wish i could bring her home with me - she ensured we did not have to put any effort towards anything, she handled it all. We can never thank her enough!!!The hotel itself is everything you can imagine, food is phenomenal, service is exceptional and speedy, the resort is GORGEOUS.our room was SPOTLESS at all times, as whenever we left someone would attend to our room (With the help of scheduling from our amazing Butler Lilith) and they put a diffuser in the room for aromatherapy which was my favorite.Very easy to get around as there is a trolley which takes you around the resort arriving at the lobby every 5 minutes. You never need to leave the resort, but if you do - the town is only a $4-$8 Uber ride away.Overall this was the best vacation spot and could not ask for any better for our honeymoon.Thank you Hotel Mousai and Lily!!!!

I loved my stay here at Hotel Mousai! I stayed on the south end in a ultra suite. When I first come to the hotel I was greeted with with a nice Butler to help me throughout the whole trip his name was Carlos! I did two spa days which I would highly recommend you try. I also did the all inclusive with Miguel and transportation. I never left the resort and had so much fun! From the rooftop pools, to the food where Rigoberto was so helpful on my cabanas daily on the rooftops. I loved my balcony where I enjoyed the jacuzzi daily.

So beautiful, the rooms, the views, the amenities all spectacular! The hotel staff was beyond amazing! Marisol greeted us and was there to make our arrival smooth and amazing. She even added a spa package for us! Miguel at the front was soo kind and helped us with our Spanish. He made sure we got to the airport without a hassle.

"Favorite Vacation Spot"

My wife and I just wrapped up our third stay at Hotel Mousai, which has quickly become our favorite vacation spot and we try to come twice a year. We love travelling to Puerto Vallarta due to its mix of the calm, blue bay and the lush, green landscape. Hotel Mousai actually provides activities for both - kayaking to Los Arcos and hiking to a waterfall in the jungle. Definitely recommend trying these activities. What keeps us coming back to Hotel Mousai specifically, though, is the amazing combination of their people, service, food, and overall quality. Our first stay here was back in 2019 and we really enjoy being able to interact and develop relationships with people that work at Mousai that we met on our first trip. Special shout outs to Alan, Carlos, Mateo, Jenny, and Penny as they are truly people we enjoy seeing each of our trips and we really appreciate the conversations we had with them and seeing familiar faces. They are some of the main reasons why we come back and are already planning our next trip later this year.We stayed in the newly opened south tower in an Ultra Suite. We have generally found the Ultra Suites to be worth it as we find the butler service, higher floor / views, and access to the spa's hydrotherapy worth the extra cost. While the south tower is open, it is not completely finished. While none of this bothered us or impacted the enjoyment of our stay, we wanted to note the following in case you are debating which tower to stay in. Due to universal supply chain issues, some of the furniture has not yet arrived, construction of the south tower gym is still in process, and breakfast is only served in restaurants in the north tower. For the latter however, we ordered room service the majority of our trip and ate out on our balcony. In case helpful, here is also some more details on other aspects of the hotel:Arrival Concierge - when you check in at the hotel, you will meet with an arrival concierge that can help you make dinner reservations, spa reservations, book activities, answer questions, etc. If you know what restaurants you want to eat it, recommend booking your preferred times in advance. Jovana was our concierge and she was absolutely wonderful. We really enjoyed chatting with her whenever we saw her. We also were able to see Rosy, who was our concierge for our last trip and it was great catching up with her. Butler Service - as noted above, we stayed in an Ultra Suite that provides access to a butler. We had worked previously with Carlos and we requested him again. Carlos is a true professional and so incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Carlos helped us make our dinner / spa reservations, coordinated timing for our room to be cleaned and turn down service, and answered any of our questions during our stay. He can also help with ad hoc requests, like when my wife needed a pair of scissors to cut something off her dress. Rooftop pool - the rooftop pools at both the south and north towers are only accessible by Mousai guests and are adult only. We spent time at both pools and both are truly fantastic. From the experience of our trip and what we heard from the Mousai team, is that the North tower pool is more lively while the South tower pool is a bit more quiet. The North tower pool has amazing views of the bay, while the south tower has amazing views of the bay as well as the jungle. Alan, Maggie, and Eden were our pool concierges during our trip. They work incredibly hard and are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. They were also very accommodating in our request for shade since my wife and I unfortunately are incapable of tanning. Rooftop pool food / drinks - the food and drink at the rooftop pools is very high quality as is the team of servers. The coconut shrimp is a must try. If you are note a drinker, then recommend the Tropical Vitalis or Ginger Fresh mocktails. Given the size of the pool, we always found the ratio of guests to servers to be quite good and we felt very well taken care of. Special thank you to Mateo, Marcelino, Guillermo, Angel, and the rest of the team that works incredibly hard. Hiroshi - this is probably our favorite restaurant on site, though the new restaurants are quite good too. We really enjoy the freshness of the sushi and sashimi. The wasabi rib-eye is worth trying if you like steak. I also love their vegan chocolate cake for dessert as it is a rare treat for me due to a dairy allergy. Special thank you to Irving, Franco, and Alejandra.Dao - this is the new Chinese Restaurant in between the north and south tower. Imagine ordering Chinese food from your favorite spot at home, but with higher quality ingredients. That is Dao. Some of our favorite dishes included the pan fried pork bun, the Hor Fun noodles, and 5 spice crispy duck. We did not get a chance to order the Peking Duck this trip, but it looked amazing. We did learn after our last meal here that you can apparently order a half size if you are only a party of 2. We will be doing that on our next trip. Special thank you to Miguel, Diego, and Daniel. Noi - this is the new Italian restaurant in the south tower. Some of our favorite dishes here included the arugula pear and hazelnut salad, the lamb shank, the burrata appetizer, and the semifredo desert. We also enjoyed the orecchiette pasta with Italian sausage and the pappardelle with lamb ragout. Special thank you to Gabriel and his team. Tierra Luna - we did Taco Night here while they had a live band singing covers of 80s music. The tacos were delicious and it was fun listening to the band. I think it would have been more fun if more people had attended this event. Tierra Luna is definitely still a work in progress and they are building two new restaurants down there (one seafood and one steakhouse). Once those open up and the foot traffic increases, I think this will be a cool spot to explore. Spa - we really enjoy the hydrotherapy that comes included with your Ultra suite. Just be sure to book a reservation to use it. We also booked two massages while there and these were fantastic. The masseuses wore masks and face shields so we felt comfortable during our treatment. Special thanks to Rosario our spa attendant and to Karen, Julio, Julia, and Yvonne for our massages. Tipping - this is more just an FYI if you have questions about tipping while on site. At restaurants and at the pool, you can charge tip directly to your room when you close the bill. We found that easiest. We also brought cash to tip the bellmen, the pool concierges, our butler, etc. where we didn't have an option to tip to the room. COVID - we felt very safe while at the resort. The employees wear masks constantly; there is hand sanitizer almost everywhere you go; many of the dining options are outside / open air. For guests, masks are mostly optional, but we wore ours in elevators and in shared spaces. Guests generally did a good job social distancing. The hotel also offers an on site COVID test, which is required before flying back to the US. Mousai makes this process incredibly simple.Gym - we learned on this trip that you are supposed to technically make a reservation to use the gym as the max capacity should only be 10 people. We never saw this enforced so the gym at times was too crowded for our liking. That said, it seems the ideal time to go to the gym is before 8am or after 10am if you want to avoid other people. The gym offers a wide variety of high quality equipment and weights. It is definitely one of the better hotel gyms we have used. If you made it through this long review, I offer my congrats. Hopefully this was helpful in your decision to vacation at this lovely resort. We look forward to visiting again.

"Stay at Garza Blanca Preserve"

We all know planning the trip is most the stress and I wanted to call attention to our pre-arrival concierge, Victor Ruiz, who was top notch! I had a million questions and some things to arrange and he was more then happy to help at any time. Loved our actual stay as well. We did not do the all-inclusive as we haven't had very good experiences with previous all inclusives. Though was pleasantly surprised at the wonderful meals we did try at Garza Blanca and Mousai. Excellent. I think the only thing I would mention here is that as its so wonderful we can eat at the Mousai restaurants, there is a lot of miscommunication on the times we are allowed to sit at the bar or visit the the rooftop pool. We were told and confirmed one thing and

"A Happy Habit since 2018"

My husband first arranged a stay here for our 40th wedding anniversary and now we are so spoiled that nothing else will do except a luxurious pampered stay at the fantastic Mousai! We enjoy all of the restaurants and sorry we missed the new Chinese one this last trip, but there is always next year. We have never been tempted to wander off property as we enjoy spending our whole day on the rooftop, being served freshly made exotic drinks and enjoying the amazing food, only to be interrupted by a visit to the incredible spa. Don't miss out on the water therapy, get there at least an hour ahead of time. Our butler Sergio granted our every wish, and more. The service and attitudes of the employees could not be more exemplary and make it a true pleasure.

"Garza Blanca Stay!"

Our stay here was incredible! Not only were the amenities, dining, and views this resort offered out of this world, but so were the staff. Our stay was filled with such great interactions with friendly host. One person in particular that made our stay incredible was a security officer by the name Javier Suarezx. Every time he saw us he made his best efforts to make sure that we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. He went above and beyond to help us have the best time possible while on our stay here at Garza Blanca. He incapsulates why this place is so special and its because of people like him. Thank you Amigo!

"5 Wonderful days at Garza Blanca"

Went there with total of 11 people. We read good things and saw nice pictures. Once we got there, from the start, the check in personal, "Stephanie" took us to her desk and check us in and explained how it all works where we all felt comfortable and felt as someone will be taking care of us. Specially once she turned us on the our consigner person who sat with us and answered all our questions and booked our dinners and again made us feel welcomed, special and comfortable.Then we get to the room, it was above our expectations with amazing views. Lastly, I will say every single employee at this place must have been trained at the Ritz Carlton customer service department, I am talking from the landscaper to the trolly driver to the hostess to house keeping, waiters, every single employee was wonderful, nice, cordial and friendly.Food, then there is the food and they delivered there too, food was excellent, Japanese, Steak, Italian, Mexican, all of it was tasty and exceeded expectations. Keep up the good job, we are planning a return already and recommending this to our friends.I wold like to see a lounge open late, an area for cigar smoking and some real authentic street taco stands in order to get some of the other flavor of Mexico.

"Puerto Vallarta, Garza Blanca - Segurida, Javier Suanezx"

We had an amazing honeymoon staying in Garza Blanca. The service here was absolutely amazing. Every employee we met, touched our hearts. Any time we ran into Senior Javier Suanezx he was so friendly and felt like a friend! We are very appreciative of his service and friendship during this trip.

"Missing Garza Blanca !!!"

This was our 8th time at Garza! We absolutely LOVE it! The staff is phenomenal! They all strive to make your experience the very BEST! Special shout out to the Kayak guides who take everyone out to Los Arcos, which is not as easy task. Mike is extraordinary, he assists at the pool, give cooking classes and guides the hike. All our butlers are superior, Roberto in particular, always there for us. Our Pool server, Alvaro was so efficient, we didn't even need to make our drink requests! He just signaled us a thumbs up! Steven at the pool is a dynamic employee who will do almost anything in speedy fashion. We love that the staff remains primarily the same, year after year, especially with the pandemic!

We had a 4 and 6 year olds that we dropped off at kids club in Garza Blanca. Shary and Paula were very nice and helpful to us. The kids loved them and both wanted to thank shary and Paula for all the cool stuff they made together. They cant wait to go to kids club next time we are there.

"Amazing Family Vacation"

We were lucky enough to stay at Garza Blanca over Christmas and New Year's and our family trip was nothing short of first class. The hospitality and accommodations here are perfect and the food, pool, scenery, beach are beautiful and well suited to families traveling with children. Our kids ages 4 and 7 loved the Kids Club and I can't say enough good things about Shary and Paula who do just the best job with the little ones. Even during the New Year's celebration the kids spent time with Shary and Paula making crafts and having a great time. Overall, this is just a first class resort to come unwind and relax and take your mind off all the stresses of home. We couldn't have asked for more. Shot out to Francisco and Antonio at the pool who always made us feel at home. Definitely go with the all inclusive, totally worth it.I'd say the one con is the members get rights (reserved) to lounge chairs at the pool which made it difficult on some days to get a good poolside chair. Some days the chairs were reserved and the people did not even show up which is just such a shame and waste. Hopefully there is a better policy in the future but members have their privileges I guess?But really no complaints, first class job by everyone here. If you can, make your way to the spa and gym at Hotel Mousai, incredible.

"Fantastic all inclusive resort in great location"

Garza Blanca is a very clean and professionally run resort about 30 minutes south of the airport. We recently spent a week there over Christmas and I cannot speak highly enough of our experience.Firstly, the hotel: the main hotel sits next to the beach and has a number of towers with rooms and suites. The hotel expanded and now includes access to the Hotel Mousai and TierraLuna shopping and restaurant area. If you are a guest at Garza Blanca you can access "all areas" via a trolley service. There is a large pool you can use, and part of the beach is roped off for guests to use. There is a nice shallow, sheltered swimming area for kids and the main beach for guest use. There is a small store and a staffed concierge area.The whole hotel and grounds are spotlessly clean which was really appreciated.The staff: The staff are very, very helpful and go out of their way to assist with anything you might need. Francisco with the travel agency can make reservations for any kind of activity and is able to pull strings to get you where you need to go. Dante and Bonnie were very helpful on the concierge desk and would answer text messages when they were off duty to help. Everyone I met went out of their way to help me.The food: There are close to 10 dining options at Garza Blanca and Mousai you can access. In a week I only at the same restaurant twice, because I wanted to! The Italian restaurant on the beach was excellent with tasty food, the steak restaurant has really nice steaks, but my favorite was the Chinese restaurant at Mousai which was absolutely excellent. The pool area has food and drink service which is quick and tasty. If you go all inclusive you wont pay for any of the meals and is really worth it in my opinion.The room: we were in tower 2 which overlooks the sea. You wont hear hotel noise and at night all you can hear are the waves! The rooms are huge, and we had a double room, which was 2 separate suites that you access by the same entry way. The main room has a full kitchen with washer and dryer. Its like a home from home. There was daily housekeeping and turn down. The room was cleaned to a spotless standard, and we had lots of extra towels and shampoo etc.Will I go back? Absolutely. It was a totally relaxing vacation and as we went all-inclusive I knew I wouldnt have a nasty bill for food and drinks at the end. All in all, I thought it was very reasonably priced. They have in house covid tests available for return flights, which was convenient.The views are amazing, service incredible and food is delicious. But the people make it a special vacation. Thank you to all the staff.

"Our 1st Time in Vallarta!! :)"

After visiting Cancun and Cabo we decided to go somewhere else and Puerto Vallarta was recommended by many ppl. So we made it happen. We flew from LAX on Halloween and stayed till Nov. 5th. The Airport in Mexico was like the others we been to before. Full of employees that lie about working for the hotel your going to, $$ exchange is set up -DO NOT IT. if you really have to just exchange only what you need, do the math your self, dont fall for the upgrade/ bonus special of you exchange more U.S. dollars. If you have your transportation just ignore everyone and go outside and if you dont just ask around and compare prices. We had a SUV send from Garza Blanca to get us (extra charge) the drive was smooth and it took us about 30 mins to get to our hotel the town was getting ready for Diaz de Los Muertos! It was Awesome!! The bellman help us with our belongings and we were directed to the front desk to finally check min(3:30pm). I feel bad that we dont recall her name but I do remember the Tattoo shop she recommended me, Black Cat Tattoo and you for that!!! Our concierge ORLANDO WAS JUST THE BEST!!!!!! He got us drinks while we c/in, helped us with our restaurant reservations for each day and even gave us his phone number to text him at anytime for any questions!!!!!! I mean come on, Las Vegas is way behind on this type of service!!!! The sushi is a must, on the other hand the steak house is horrible. The meat tested bad, the cuts were not what they were supposed to be and a small menu. Skip it!!!! the service was great just the food is a No No! The breakfast and buffet was delicious!!!! Thank you ORLANDO and staff for a wonderful and unforgettable vacations!!! I been around the world and you guys made us feel like HOME. Theres no price for that. Before I forget, I need to include ALL THE TROLLEY DRIVERS in this. Just a Fantastic staff, hands down!!!! I will definitely recommend this Hotel, the Moy family will be back in 2022 :) -Sorry Orlando for the late review but we didnt forget!!! God Bless you all.

"Great, but wasteful"

It's a beautiful resort, with a wonderful staff. My only issue was that no part of this resort, in any way, in environmentally friendly. Guests go through countless plastic water bottles each day. Towels are used and discarded as if they were napkins. I would recommend that the hotel give each guest a pretty, reusable water bottle that could be filled at various filtered water stations. The resort probably goes through several thousand plastic water bottles each day, and I doubt that a single one of them is recycled. This waste was sad to see. Otherwise, we loved the resort.

"STAY HERE"

We had the best experience here. Every member of the staff was so kind and went above and beyond to make every aspect of our stay as enjoyable as possible. The food across the board is incredible. My personal favorite places were Noi for italian, the rooftop for lunch, and Hiroshi for Japanese. On the rooftop, Ricardo & Ignacio made each day better than the next. The kindest and most accommodating people. At Noi, my favorite restaurant of all, Alejandro & Luis were the best servers! I highly recommend asking for them if you go to this restaurant. Get the filet, the orecchiette, and the lamb! All of the food is impeccable. Our butler, Eduardo, is the most incredible human. He made every single thing we asked for possible and this trip would not have been the same without him. The hotel was out of peanut butter during our stay and my family was craving it for breakfast, so after hearing that we hadnt been able to get any, Eduardo brought peanut butter from home to ensure we had it for the remainder of our stay. So sad to leave. Will miss the amazing views, food, drinks, and people!

"Wonderful Honeymoon Experience"

We stayed in the new North Tower Suite of Hotel Mousai. The room and staff were wonderful and friendly. Our butler told room service and the restaurant of our honeymoon so they did something extra special for us. Our butler also made reservations for every dinner, spa, or activity we did. He was always available and made the trip relaxing and comfortable. On days on the rooftop, the staff was amazing. They gave us fresh towels after getting out from the pool and made orders quickly. Our trip was truly memorable and everyone at the hotel helped make it perfect.

"Amazing getaway"

My wife and I spent a week at the Mousai, from Christmas to New Years. Id been trying to get there for a few years and it did not disappoint. The Mousai itself is the high-end option among a half dozen hotels/residences in the Garza Blanca preserve, which is a fairly large piece of land that includes hiking trails, the hotel properties, a couple of pools and the beach. This was a splurge for us so we went for the corner suite and an ultra package, which includes a higher floor and a butler. Since it was COVID-omicron and we didnt want to risk testing positive we did the all-inclusive package and pretty much never left the preserve. We felt very safe COVID-wise.The room was spectacular, every bit as nice as the photos imply. We looked out on the ocean from the 10th floor and saw whales migrating down the coast. Each room has a private plunge pool, which we didnt use much but the few times I cooled off or relaxed in it were very nice. Theres also a hammock, which I personally love. The Mousai itself is beautifully maintained, everything was spotless. The ratio of staff to guests is high. We never had trouble finding someone when we needed them and they seemed genuinely happy to be working there (conversations with several staff confirmed this). On that point Id like to call out a few people who were especially helpful:Ana - pre-concierge. She got us set up with restaurant reservations and answered our many questions before we arrived. It was really helpful to be informed before we got there.Maria yoga. We did yoga with Maria twice. Ive done yoga for years and this was just the right class for a vacation. Challenging enough with plenty of relaxation. Maria is also a lovely person.Tito hike. We hiked twice, the second time with Tito. He was very knowledgeable about the plants and shared all sorts of interesting facts. It really took the hike to another level.Oswaldo kayak. We kayaked to Los Altos (large rocks/arches) twice, the second time with Oswaldo. Excellent guide.Eduardo breakfast. We had breakfast on the Mousai patio every morning and most days we were greeted/served by Eduardo. Terrific service, excellent suggestions and just a pleasure to interact with. Really started the day off right.Edward butler. I was dubious about how useful a butler would be until I realized that he was essentially our personal concierge. It was amazingly convenient to text him for anything that we needed, whether it was a restaurant reservation, a question, some service, you name it. The last day we had to pack up something we bought so it would survive being checked as luggage on the plane and Edward hunted down a box, bubble wrap and tape and had them brought to our room. Really above and beyond, and such a nice person as well.We ate in pretty much all of the restaurants. All were good but some were better than others:BlancaBlue Mexican restaurant on the beach. Excellent flavors, really enjoyed this. Might have been my favorite.BocaDos steak house. Its hard to get steak right but they did it. I ordered an aged ribeye and it was just perfect. Barely medium inside but with a nice crust on the edges. Fantastic flavor.Dao new Chinese restaurant. Very good flavors, interesting choices. The only thing Ill say is that its loud, in part because its the only restaurant with no option to dine outdoors. Food was great though.Hiroshi Japanese. This one disappointed a bit, maybe because its their premier restaurant and I expected more. We ate here twice and it was certainly good, but nothing exceptional. The sushi in particular was disappointing.NOI -new Italian restaurant. Ordered fish (sea bass) and also a pasta. The fish was good but the past was great. If you eat here stick to the more authentic Italian dishes.

This was our fourth time visiting garza blanca PV and our first since Covid broke. The hotel exceeded all expectations.The room was beautiful ( we stayed in a 2 bedroom panaramic in tower 4) with amazing views. The food fabulous at all the restaurants,.The best thing about garza is the staff. Nothing is to much and they go out of their way to make your trip great. Our last night here they even brought out a dessert that said have a safe trip home!Special shout out to Miguel at the beach, he was amazing and worked so hard to make sure no one ever waited for anything. Also to Dante who helped me with questions and dinner reservations.Thanks again and we are already booked for next Xmas,

"A MUST!!!"

Wow! What a trip! We had the time of our lives. We stayed in a panoramic suite and talk about luxury! I have never felt more like a princess. Not only was the beach incredible but the staff was AMAZING! We became very close with Tito the Bandito who took us on many adventures as well as Miguel, our trusty beach-side waiter, Edgar, the spunkiest trolley driver you will ever come across, Francisco, who organized many day-trips, and Javier Suarez who made us feel incredibly welcomed and comfortable. Garza Blanca is such a gem!

"Another PHENOMENAL experience at Hotel Mousai"

This is the 5th or 6th time my husband and I have been to Mousai, but the first time we brought my parents. It was a special trip as we were celebrating my dad's recovery from cancer, and it exceeded all expectations. The staff is always top-notch, but I want to especially acknowledge our personal butler, Carlos Ramos. He was there every single day checking in on my mom and dad, seeing what he could do to make the trip more special or help them ease into the experience. He was kind, thoughtful, detail-oriented, and truly made them feel special. Other highlights were the rooftop pool (stunning and so much fun), Hiroshi, and some of the newer restaurants we tried in the new tower. Thank you everyone for making this such a wonderful trip, we will see you again soon.

"Great Views! Great Service! Great food/drinks!"

Hotel Mousai doesnt disappoint! The impeccable service is topped with excellent drinks and excellent food. Rooms are spacious but they are really all about the balcony with the incredible views of the bay. We rarely return to resorts twice because we like new experiences and new adventures but this was our second time at mousai and I can confidently say there will be a third. We stayed in the new south tower and appreciated the new restaurant options. Special shoutouts to Vicente and Azael at the new Dao restaurant. They made our dinners so fun with lots of laughs and the best service, and the food/service was so good we ate there twice. This new restaurant is such a great addition to the resort. Our butler Ruben and Miguel at valet were really wonderful and always made sure we had everything we needed. We really appreciate all their extra attentions to ensuring we were having a great vacation. We love to travel and do so often and in my opinion we havent found a better all inclusive adults only resort anywhere else. Thank you Mousai for the wonder New Years Eve party and for helping us ring in the new year properly. Cheers to 2022 and Feliz Ao Nuevo!

"An absolutely fantastic stay!"

We had an incredible stay at Hotel Mousai North Tower during NYE. We stayed in the Ultra Mousai corner room, which to say the least was absolutely stunning. The views of the ocean and mountains were breathtaking. The hot tub in the balcony was one of a kind and utilized daily, as was the hammock. The balcony was also as spacious as a hotel room on its own, and a great spot to do some yoga or meditate if you practice. The sun and ocean air are restorative!Every interaction with hotel staff was amazingly hospitable and helpful. The staff were all masked at all times, as COVID protocols mandate. In particular, our butler Carlos Ramos, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Carlos helped us book our nightly dinners at the restaurants on the property, make appointments for spa treatments and hydrotherapy, and booked RSVPs for anything we wanted to do. We ate breakfast daily at Noi, and our servers Luis, Cesar and Claudia made sure our day was off to a great start. We got amazing street taco recommendations from Luis and Cesar, which did not disappoint when we visited Zona Romántica and Malecon. Traveling into town was an easy cab ride for 150-200 pesos that the hotel hailed for us. The hotel offered COVID testing on site for a fee, in partnership with CMQ hospital, which was super convenient for our travels back to the US. During our stay, we took advantage of the daily activities that the hotel offered, including kayaking, snorkeling and hiking. All were super fun! Each activity was led by a guide that had an amazing attitude. We always felt very safe. The NYE celebration in the South Tower rooftop was lively and fun! Amazing views of fireworks happening on the property and all around the Puerto Vallarta coast! Theres also nightly events at Tierraluna, or any of the restaurants or spaces, which made for an eventful time without much need to think too hard about what to do. Our massages at Spa Imagine and daily hydrotherapy were also so very relaxing and quite unique. The views from the spa are also simply breathtaking, which adds to the overall ambience of the experience There are so many areas where you can find privacy or mingle among the other guests. Whatever your preference, there is always something for you.All in all, we would highly recommend Hotel Mousai, and would not hesitate to come back!

"Beautiful Covid-safe Resort"

Stayed at Hotel Mousai over Christmas & it was amazing! Hot tub & ocean views in every room, adults only, almost every restaurant was overlooking the water, 24/7 food available & the resort itself is huge, cannot say enough positive things about this hotel.Before Arriving: The pre-arrival concierge Ana made all of our dinner, spa and tour reservations before we arrived. She was quick in responding and we had zero issues with all of our reservations. Restaurants: We tried almost all of the restaurants while we were there, our favorite was by far Dao with Hiroshi as a very close 2nd. The rooftop food and staff was also fantastic.Staff: They were all incredible, kind, quick and informative. Special shout outs: Alan, Roberto, Juan, Maggie, Alejandro, Alberto & Daniel at Dao, our Hiroshi servers, and more!Spa: This was the only disappointing part of the trip honestly, for such a luxurious hotel the spa was pretty bleak. The masseuses did a wonderful job, but the pre-massage hydrotherapy was lacking compared to the hotel itself. Not to mention it's entirely enclosed, so covid-wise we didn't love that. Covid-Safe: We felt so safe covid-wise despite the variant surge. Not once did I ever see any of the staff take off their masks inside or outside. The only time we were ever in an enclosed space was the elevators and spa. Staff were constantly cleaning and we were able to take covid tests on the property before leaving. Great trip and would come back in a heartbeat!

"Amazing"

This is the only Á five diamond rated hotel in Puerto Vallarta, and for good reason. First, let's talk about the aesthetics of the hotel. Everything is beautiful, from the groundskeeping to the rooftop pool. On one side of the hotel, you have views of the lush, vibrant jungle. On the other side, you have views of the turquoise waters and the mountains. Every single room in this hotel will give you an ocean view from your spacious balcony that also includes a private jacuzzi and a hammock. There is an iPad that controls everything in the room from the lights to the curtains to the music. I liked that I was able to order room service directly from the iPad. I had the loveliest breakfast from the balcony. As for the service and hospitality, everything was impeccable. Every single employee went above and beyond to cater to me to ensure that my stay was enjoyable and comfortable- I truly felt like a queen! I got the all inclusive, which I would recommend if you plan to spend a majority of your time at the resort. The drinks were watered down more so than your everyday cocktail, but were still well curated and delicious. The location might be the only drawback to the hotel, but I did not mind it. It's about a 45 minute drive from the airport, and about 20 minutes to downtown. If you're looking to step outside the hotel grounds often, this location might not be the most suitable. However, taxi service and Ubers are readily available. There's also a shuttle that takes you to the other sister properties and down to the private beach. I highly recommend staying at this hotel! I can't wait to come back.

"New Editions to Hotel Mousai"

This place just keeps on improving and enhancing your experience. They have almost completed the new Terra Luna (about 60% built when we visited) which is their new shopping/entertainment village on premises. NOI Italian Restaurant:New Italian rest we ate at. Great food, but not enough meat choices on menu. Only one meat choice with Lamb in it. Bocados Steak HouseWe ate here last year and still NOT improved. Need to hire a high quality chef for this Rest. Food seems to be prepared in advance and then microwaved just before serving. We had Christmas Eve dinner. Dinner was also not very hot, which means it sat too long before serving. PetsThey allowed dogs here with several restrictions. I think allowing pets at Hotel Mousai downgrades the adults only premise. Food was excellent at The Terrace (breakfast), at the Rooftop, and the Garza. They also have a new upscale Chinese Rest we did NOT try yet. Rooms are very similar at the North Tower and South Tower. So do NOT feel deprived if you stay in the North Tower. We took a tour of the new South Tower. Almost identical, which I think was smart.

"Awesome family trip"

Garza Blanca was the perfect spot for our family Xmas vacation trip. The service was top notch and truly sets it apart from other all inclusive resorts. Javier Suarez made sure our beach chairs and valuables were secured every day, in addition to pampering us with fresh towels under our feet. He was always there to assist in anything we needed and all of our requests. The rooms at Garza Blanca are beautiful and the food very good. The infinity pool view is spectacular and the beach is easily accessible from the pool area so you can easily go back and forth. You get used to the long walks or the trolleys and its worth it for the gorgeous views from every spot.

"What a beautiful resort"

We went to Hotel Mousai for my 50th birthday and had a truly wonderful time. The property was beautiful and we stayed in the newly opened South Tower. While some of the things weren't completely set up in the room yet, it had little impact on our stay. The views from our room were breathtaking, to see the hills from one side and the ocean from the other, was truly magical. However what truly set the resort apart was the service of some of the staff there. First let me call out Angel on the rooftop bar in the South Tower, he was a pleasure to talk with and took amazing care of us. However the ones who stole the show for us was the service that we received at Noi. They went above and beyond to make our meals there extremely special, not only the service, but just the total experience. From the waiter Aleejando(Alex), to the bartender Marco, and the manager Adrian. Thank you all for making by birthday so enjoyable!We also had the opportunity to be the 10th customer at the newly opened Dao on our last night and to say the food and service was amazing would be an understatement. The attention to detail and our every need was just amazing. Being given a greeting in Chinese from our waiter, to the recommendations and of course another birthday celebration, I truly thank you. I am hoping I remember our waiters name correctly I believe it was Diego, Diego my hat is off to you and the rest of the Dao staff.We are looking forward to returning to Hotel Mousai and the other Tafer properties, They truly are breaking the mold of the all inclusive experience.

"Wonderful Resort with Great Service"

My family and I were surprised with the amazing service at the Garza Blanca resort. Every employee was kind and very helpful. Something I would recommend is the advanced hike to the cascades which was difficult but very doable. I would also like to say a very big thank you to Mike, the hike leader. He was very welcoming and fun and led our family and a couple others on a fantastic jungle hike. I would highly recommend the Garza Blanca resort!

"Another wonderful experience at Hotel Mousai!"

We just returned from a five-night stay at Hotel Mousai and were already missing it as we reminisce over a wonderful cup of Chiapas coffee. (Thank you Maggie!)This was our second stay at Hotel Mousai (north tower) and we enjoyed it as much as our first back in 2017.Service:By far, the best thing about our experience at Hotel Mousai is the service; (especially the crew at the North Tower Rooftop) and it is this exceptional service that will keep us coming back.Our positive experience began with our Pre-Arrival Concierge, Miguel Garcia, setting up our roundtrip transportation and nightly dinners in advance. He followed through with both requests which was much appreciated.Pool:A special shoutout to Maggie and Alan (pool concierge). They were so attentive and accommodating by anticipating our needs (more shade, less shade, fresh towels, etc) before we even asked. Maggie even delivered my Kindle to our room when I forgot it one evening. Those two are amzing and made our vacation extra special!The rest of the pool staff is wonderful as well. Ignacio was phenomenal as he always kept an eye out and my drink never went unintentionally dry. Diego, Dylan, Gerardo (Gerry), Guillermo, and Juan also did a terrific job throughout each day.The pool itself has a beautiful view, lounge chair availability is abundant, and the water was the perfect temperature for long dips.If you need to decompress from your busy job/lifestyle then the North Tower Rooftop should be a destination of consideration.Room:Our North Suite room was well appointed with a wonderful view. The deck has a small jacuzzi and a hammock which was perfect for a quick evening nap. I wish that we knew who to thank for our room service. They did a wonderful job making up our room each morning/afternoon, freshening up our bathroom, and then turning down our bed each evening. Dining experiences:Terrace: We ate breakfast at the Terrace each morning and enjoyed the experience. The chilaquiles might have been our favorite but we enjoyed everything that we tried. We also enjoyed our daily chats with Ambrosio (captain) and Luis was terrific. Rooftop North: The menu was perfect for our lunch needs. The shrimp tacos, nachos, popcorn chicken, and guac are particularly noteworthy.Hiroshis: The Japanese cuisine is excellent and the service from Abraham, Miguel, and Ale was also excellent. My only request is that the chef add more rolls to the menu.Dao: We enjoyed the food. Surprisingly, our favorite dish of the evening was the Egg White Fried Rice. The other dishes; spring rolls, crab rangoon, chow mein, walnut shrimp, sweet & sour pork were all good. And Diego deserves recognition for the wonderful service. BocaDos Steak House: This is where we dined for Christmas dinner. The food was okay but the service was subpar compared to the rest of our experience at Hotel Mousai. The breadbasket might have been the best thing that we ate. After serving the entrees (ribeye and salmon), I wish that the server would have checked in on the preparation because both meals were pretty rare for a request of medium. Overall a good dinner at BocaDos Steak House. Nothing mind blowing but nothing terrible.Noi: The service from Alejandro and Luigui was great. Noi is newly opened so Im sure that the menu will improve. The Mela pizza and Sabayon dessert were delicious. The appetizer was forgettable and the bread, lamb ragout pappardelle, and tiramisu were disappointing. They should share the bread baker/distributor from BocaDos.Again, the service was a highlight of our experience and will keep us coming back.Already looking forward to our next trip!Thank you Hotel Mousai!

"Outstanding staff, food and accommodations!!!"

We travelled from the Midwestern U.S. to PV again this year and tried the new South Tower of the Hotel Mousai. We travelled with our adult children, the Mousai is adults only, and had a 2 bedroom suite.The South Tower opened a few weeks before our trip, and it was amazing. The views, the amenities (not sure how I've lived this long without a heated toilet seat and a bidet : ), the staff - all amazing. Of particular note, we connected with Ana in the pre-arrival concierge department to arrange some things in advance for a special birthday and she was great. Followed up, followed through, and was kind. Same for the concierge team at the hotel, and for the arrival staff, logistics, pool wait staff, hiking crew, kayak team, trolley drivers, etc. We were amazed with the quality, presence and help provided by the staff. Somehow, they opened a new building and restaurants and staffed up with people who genuinely wanted to help us have a good vacation. Thank you!!!The food we found also to be wonderful. Of particular note is the new Chinese restaurant Dao. It opened while we were there, and we wondered how it would be. This restaurant was our favorite and the quality and different dishes offered were amazing. Hands down the best on the property in our opinion. The Chef came out to say hello, and he was genuinely interested in our feedback. The manager stopped by our second dinner probing for any issues - there were note - but she was great. The only "average" meal we had was at the steak house, and that was really the appetizers - maybe it was an off night.Couple other notes. We had never done an "adults only" before with our family, and it was unexpectedly awesome. The couple of times we had dinner at restaurants that weren't, we appreciated the concept of adults only more than we thought. Also at the pool, etc.While we had no problems, we overheard the staff interacting with another guest who had complaints about something - and the staff was remarkable. The issue seemed trivial, but the guest was frustrated (and in this case dunk), and the staff handled it with grace and kindness. Not easy to do, quickly diffused and redirected toward a positive result.Finally, if you go in the winter you get to see whales. We saw whales in the bay every day, usually 2 or 3 times per day. We've stayed in Marina Vallarta several times, but never seen whales on that side of the bay. Clearly the like the North side better - likely due to the trench location in the bay. Super cool to see whales when you are staring off quietly from the rooftop pool!!!I wish all our travel experiences were as good as the Mousai. Kudos to the owners, staff and team!!!

"Luxury at its finest!"

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Mousai as a pre-Christmas getaway. We booked a North Tower suite, which came with a large balcony, private hot tub, and hammock. The thing I loved the most was the view of the ocean, and the privacy of the room - not a soul in sight. Transportation to various locations at the property was great, dinner options plentiful and tasty (including 24 hour room service), and the incredible infinity pool on the rooftop was spectacular. We opted not to do the all-inclusive, which was more cost effective in the long run.Ana, the pre-stay concierge, was very communicative, and assisted with bookings before we even arrived. All service and staff once we arrived were courteous and attentive - I truly felt like a VIP. For those who want to also experience the city of Puerto Vallarta, a taxi to the Romantic Zone will take ~15 minutes and cost ~$12 USD each direction. Easy and worth it!Highly highly recommend!

Victor (Personal Concierge) was truly exceptional. He reached out several months in advance of our visit to assist with activities, airport transfers, restaurant reservations, grocery shopping, etc.He was very responsive to our needs and questions. This is our third visit to the property. I cant say enough great things about the staff, property, and amenities.Its quite difficult to find these size rooms (3k square feet) at a hotel. They have a gem of a set up at Garza Blanca! Highly recommend it!

"A magic place to stay and feel you worth it"

This place is incredible awesome! I would say it is magic! The scenery, the rooms, the service, the people which are the most important part in this experience. They make everything possible for you to have the most beautiful experience with them. I will mention the areas in general because I dont remember the names of all of them. The sales team is very profesional and give you all the answer you could make if you decide to be part of the complex, the concierge team, OMG what a beautiful people, the restaurant, pool and beach servers treat you as family. In general I dont have words to describe everything, if you come to Puerto Vallarta give them the opportunity to show everything I witnessed.

"Best staff!!"

The best vacations ever! The staff at Garza Blanca definitely made this vacation one to remember. From Steven our tour guide on the hike to the waterfall. He was so friendly and our kids loved it. Concepcion our housekeeper kept our 3 bedroom penthouse so nice and neat. She would clean 2xs a day. She was so sweet and paid a lot of attention to detail. But Roberto by far made the biggest impression. He went above and beyond to make us feel like family. He was our waiter at the steak house but even after that day he made sure to find us and treat us like family. This hotel has the best views. We will definitely come back.

"Best vacation ever"

Absolutely the best resort in Puerto Vallarta. Concepcion in Housekeeping did an absolutely incredible job with her details on our penthouse suite 1401. Now Roberto from Bacado Steak House One of our waiters, captain of waiters I believe . Roberto should be the General Manager of the entire resort. I have never felt so important, special and heard by a staff member than I did when Roberto was our waiter. He went above and beyond and explained the wagyu steak and why its so special. I am gluten free and he made sure I was eating only gluten free. On another night he put a gluten free dessert together for me to take to my room. The king of the bike tour Steven was great, kept us entertained, safe and in route. That guy needs to be in a management position he know people. All these people need to be acknowledged. This was the best vacation I have EVER had and the food was amazing. The staff was friendly and professional. The Palacios family will be returning soon. Thank you!

"Excellent Resort"

I would highly recommend staying at Garza Blanca if you are trying to choose a resort in PV. Easily one of the nicest resorts I have been to. Anytime you pass any staff member they place their hand on their chest to greet you. exceptional service day and night at restaurants, poolside and bar including room service and turn down service. The grounds of this resort are immaculate. The staff works very hard to keep everything clean and manicured from landscaping to pool area. We stayed in a Junior Panorama suite for 6 nights and the views were just incredible. No corners are cut here and it feels like luxury. Everything is granite, marble, stone. I really enjoyed lounging on the balcony hammock and even at night you can see the entire skyline lit up. The sunsets here are second to none. The loungers at the pool are very comfortable, leather wrapped cushions. Greats views in the heated infinity pools.We went on a guided hike with about 10-15 other guests which is included in your stay and the tour guide was excellent.We chose the all inclusive package which was well worth it if you like to eat a lot. Since food and drinks can also be purchased ala carte, the quality was much higher than any resort weve stayed. The food was delicious. For breakfast I recommend trying the Aztec Crepes or poached with crab meat. Hotel Mousai is next door and since it is also owed, we were able to have dinner there at Hiroshi, fresh sushi / sashimi and many other Japanese delicacies. This was probably our best meal. Also drinks were included on the rooftop bar of Mousai after dark which was nice.

"Exceptional Resort Experience"

Since I didnt get bit by an ant like the miserable person who gave this resort a ONE, I feel that I can be more objective. This resort is FABULOUS. The staff is attentive and genuine. Our accommodations were pristine and the housekeeping ladies cleaned up after us twice a day. We had a corner unit with 270 degree views of the bay and mountains. Every morning we lounged on our patio in soft resort robes, sipping Nespresso watching the whales playing with their babies. Priceless. Breakfasts, both buffet and menu were a treat. So happy that this resort has not dumbed down its Mexican food for American tastes - wonderful authentic dishes on every menu that had some KICK to them. Bowls of fiery salsa's on every buffet that were packed with flavor. The variety of the restaurants is excellent and the food was top quality. What really made this property stand above the others in Vallarta is that it has heart... great management and people who really love working there. DO NOT SKIP THE SPA - we arrived 2 hours before our massages and the HYDRO THERAPY CIRCUIT experience they offered us before our treatments was beyond belief. A lovely attendant guided us through the steps in a VAST tiled room filled with plunge pools, and spa rooms of various temperatures and we never enjoyed ourselves so much. We did buy the all inclusive package as it was about equal to what we spend on food and drinking in Mexico and we never once felt that it cut corners or was cheap. EVERYTHING was top quality and the well brands of liquor were what we would normally choose. Cazadores is their house tequila and even Grey Goose and Don Julio were included. Highly recommend this property without hesitation. There is a Hilton and Hyatt on this side of bay and I would not consider booking them after experiencing Garza Blanca and Hotel Mousai.

"Beautiful resort. Excellent customer service."

I just returned from a 10 day stay for my sisters wedding and I was blown away by the service and the hotel property. The buildings are nestled around lush greenery, beautiful mountains while overlooking the ocean. Just gorgeous. But what was most impressive were the staff. Everyone from the security, to restaurant, to even support staff provided the highest quality services to guests. The head of security, Mario, went above and beyond to track down multiple items we had lost that were very valuable to us. Our wedding event planning team - Cynthia and Luz - were amazing and provided support from start to finish. All the wait staff were attentive and helpful, a particular shout out to Victorino who went above and beyond to provide us with excellent service during our morning breakfast. And this is not your typical all inclusive... all the restaurants, food & drinks are top notch! Rooms are big, comfortable with a beautiful view of ocean. Very pleased!

Just returned from a 6 day stay at GBPV. Had an amazing time. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Our concierge, Omar, was amazing. He was super responsive in helping us get reservations and very informative. Shary in the Kids Club was so kind to our kids and they had a wonderful time making bracelets, playing and even did a canvas art project by the pool. The waiters by the pool were wonderful, especially Juan! Made us feel very welcome. We stayed in a beach 2 BRM and it was so spacious, well equipped with spectacular views of the bay.

We had a great stay overall at Hotel Mousai. More than anything it was the personal experience that made it so special. Geocima Leezama aka (Geovani Castro) from The Terrace Restaurant personally went out of his way every single day to help us out. If I were to come back to Mousai, it is simply because of how awesome this gentleman was. He was a prime example of the hospitality that youll experience at Hotel Mousai.

"Fantastic and unexpected stay for honeymoon"

My husband and I spent 3 nights and 4 days at Garza Blanca. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we were switched from Hotel Mousai to Garza Blanca. Although we were looking forward to the newer sister hotel, we were pleasantly surprised at the Garza Blanca property. We visited both properties and each have their own "personality". We ended up loving the beach front view at Garza Blanca as we had the honeymoon suite with even a jacuzzi in the terrance! They have a trolley that drives to and from Garza Blanca and Hotel Mousai. It was very easy to jump properties and we waited no longer than 5 minutes each time!Like others have mentioned, they offer presentations for discounts or other packages. We ended up declining so that we can spend the small amount of time we had to explore PV. There was no pushing whatsover and I did not feel like the top notch service they were providing me was hindered from it. We ate at Blanca Blue at Garza, Rooftop Bar at Hotel Mousai, Terrace at Hotel Mousai, Hiroshi at Hotel Mousai, in-room dining at Garza. I have to say the food was decent. I felt like the services, presentation, environment, and the views were the main highlight of dining. There were random food items that I was obsessed with during my stay: the chorizo bread at Blanca Blue, popcorn chicken at the rooftop bar, and their signature hot sauce (I bought two bottles). I would say all-inclusive is worth it based on the amount of alcohol we drank alone! Last but definitely not least, I feel like the people there who've helped make our trip as amazing as it can be were what also makes the properties the 5 stars it should be! A special shout out to Karen (concierge) and Ernesto (butler). They have always checked up on my stay and made sure I was always taken cared of. If I started to run into any problems, Karen was always magically there behind us and would fix it right then and there. If we needed something that we felt was difficult to get, Ernesto would jump between properties to make sure I had what I needed. We would come back just for the services that were provided and how we felt so cared for!

My husband and I recently stayed at Hotel Mousai for the first time and had an incredible experience. The level of service and hospitality is truly unparalleled; every single staff member was kind, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Our butler Carlos Ramos went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and helped any logistics with our stay feel effortless. The location is absolutely stunning and we loved being nestled in the mountains while still being able to easily access the beach. The food was amazing (Hiroshi is a standout) and I highly recommend going with the all inclusive package. We also visited the spa and was assisted by Jesus both times who offered exceptional service as we navigated the hydrotherapy circuit. Hotel Mousai has set the bar incredibly high and we plan on making this an annual trip!

Hotel Mousai was absolutely amazing and their staff was fantastic. To start, Nathaly at the front desk and our concierge Jay-Z (Jaciel) were super helpful and kind with all activities reservations and suggestions through our stay the whole time. Tito was a super fun and safe guide to go to the hike with and we enjoyed the waterfall and Puerto Vallartas tropical nature. Osvaldo from the kayak tours was the sweetest and most charismatic service making us feel welcome all the time. We did the kayak tour twice and the other days we used the kayak and the paddle boards close to the surroundings. At the beach, Javier from security was always paying attention and making sure the beach was safe and organized, he also went above and beyond making sure towels were available and that we were comfortable at the beach. Same with Israel, Gonzalo and Eduardo. We were also very fortunate to be there for wellness week and Gema took care of us on all yoga events, specially at the class with Bonnie that was breathtaking by the beach. The SPA was everything you could dream of and the staff was Extraordinary. The hotel facilities were super clean, the food was spectacular. We booked our next vacation again in 3 months as soon as we got back home. Thank you everyone that made this trip so special!

"Incredibly compassionate and courageous"

My family went on the morning kayaks and out of 5 of us, 1 became entirely incapacitated by seasickness at the furthest part of the route and landed at another private property due to health problems. Javier, the brave and heroic Javier paddled 1 all the way to the hotel himself while taking of that persons seasickness, then, once he got the person to shore and watched over, he paddled back to where the 2 got stranded, got them picked up by colleagues and paddled the kayak back himself. Although he had to coordinate a chaotic group of 20? tourists all himself, he never lost composure and stayed in control, really allowing us to rely and trust in him. It was clear he was paying close attention to each of our well-being, safely, and welfare. We were in a bit of a crisis and Javier got us through it, so we call him a hero in our family!When we went hiking, Mike was similarly watchful for our safety. He kindly joked around with us while making sure we didnt slip off any sharp slopes. He told us delightful stories and smiled the whole time. It was an immense pleasure and honor spending time with both Javier and Mike. We are very grateful to them and looking forward to coming back to share more fun, laughs, and heroisms, though hopefully well not cause so much trouble again!

"Incredible vacation and service!"

Dante and Ernesto were fantastic in taking care of us at the amazing Garza Blanca and Hotel Mousai. We were originally slated to be in a suite in the latter, but as the South Tower wasnt finished yet, they gave us the Garza Blanca Oceanfront penthouse which was just spectacular. The views of the ocean from the suite was incredible with perfect sunset views, and the outdoor jacuzzi was a daily delight. Both Dante and Ernesto went above and beyond to ensure that we were thoroughly taken care of during our stay, definitely engage the butlers service well and discuss with them your need to make your stay as smooth as possible.They also gave us access to the Mousai facilities which were all top notch. Especially of note is the rooftop pool, which we basically spent hours at every day. The views of Banderas bay were truly one of a kind, and I would put it up there with other renowned views Ive seen like the infinity pool of Singapores Marina Bay Sands and the sunset in Santorini. The gym overlooking the bay was like having an Equinox gym overlooking the Pacific, and the Tierra Luna outdoor shopping area was already a great place to browse around even though many of the facilities were still being built out. Id definitely recommend the gift shop for local craftspersons works, we spent quite some time in PV downtown looking at local ceramics and wooden souvenirs and found the pieces at the souvenir shop to be of top quality.The restaurants were all wonderful (we did the all inclusive) but the standout for us was the Blanca Blue (Mexican restaurant), we probably could have had dinner nearly every day during our weeklong stay and not have gotten bored. We wished that we could even bring the restaurant back to the Bay Area, as the offerings were so unique and delicious. Overall, we definitely recommend Garza Blanca all inclusive for your stay, but also consider Hotel Mousai as well as the rooftop infinity pool and the amenities are just incredible.

"Carlos Ramos & Staff"

This hotel is one of the most customer satisfaction driven hotels I have ever been at. Every employee greets you with excitement and joy! I have to say our butler Carlos Ramos he helps schedule and ensure things are taken care of during your stay. He reminds me a lot of the butler in Mr. Deeds, he anticipates before you need something and shows up when your at an activity or relaxing to ensure your visit is wonderful! He greets you even if he is performing another task to ensure everything is great. His professionalism and knack for the small details is remarkable! Ricardo on the rooftop is an amazing server he is friendly and he is driven to help everyone while remaining friendly and it doesnt go un noticed. I must say he may be a big performer but everyone on the rooftop for the most part is there to help you and ensure you have what you need while enjoying the view. Well done by the staff here.

The atmosphere is beautiful. But what really makes the resort is the people that work here. They treat everyone with respect and politeness. Always thinking about you and your safety. Laura, Mike, Tito, and Carmen are just a few of the staff here that make everything so memorable. Count your blessings if you come here, it is the MOST amazing place to be. - von Prisk family

"Paradise"

Ive been to 23 different countries and never have I found a resort as friendly beautiful welcoming as Garza Blanca. The employees are humble sweet incredibly hard-working, to make your stay as pleasant as possible. If I could give 6 stars on a 5 star scale, I would. Great food, breathtaking views, yoga, gym, kayaking, hiking multiple pools feet away from the beach. Even picked us up from the airport! Went all inclusive, worth the money. 2 thumbs up. Well be back!!!

"The best vacation ever!"

We have traveled to Mexico several times, but we always seemed to gravitate towards the Mayan Rivera. Our recent stay at Garza Blanca has completely changed our opinion of Puerto Vallarta and the region! We were fortunate enough to have a three bedroom ocean front penthouse, which slept us, our boys and our moms perfectly. The beds were big enough that our kids could fit with one of their grandmas or us without issue. Our butler Roberto was exceptional, and greeted us upon check in. After we were shown to our room he sat down with us and planned out every dinner reservation, our covid tests and scheduled a special dinner we had prepared in our room. He checked on us daily, and went above and beyond when we needed ear drops for my son and assistance arranging a van to take us to town for shopping. We had exceptional service from Mike the pool concierge, Roberto our pool server and Sonia our housekeeper. We loved seeing them every day! Every staff member we encountered was so polite and helpful! An absolute standout was Paula in the kids club, who also watched our boys one night when we went to Hiroshi for dinner. Our boys had the most memorable time with her and I would absolutely recommend the babysitter services to anyone who wants a grown up night out. The food and drinks were among the best I have ever experienced at a resort. Cocktails at AI's often have that fake simple syrup in them, everything here was so fresh and well prepared. The buffet in the morning at Blanca Blue was tremendous. The aguachile at the pool was delicious. Our favorite restaurant was Hiroshi, followed by Blanca Blue. The steakhouse was very good, and the Italian was also good. We also had the surreal privilege of a meal prepared en suite, and our only regret was by the time the main dish was done we were all sóoo full. But the experience, the presentations and the service were an outstanding end to our trip. Also don't get me started on the beds, I have never ever slept so well on vacation. Vacations will never, ever compare to Garza Blanca so we'll just have to go back instead! Thank you for an amazing trip!!!

"AMAZING! WOW! BEAUTIFUL! TREATED LIKE ROYALTY!!"

This is by far the BEST resort we have ever been to. From the moment we stepped onto the Garza Blanca grounds for our one week stay during the last week of October, we were blown away by the breathtaking views, the accommodations of the Panorama Suite, and the impeccable service from the entire staff. We had beautiful hot, sunny weather the entire week, except for a brief period of rain two evenings. Besides this time of year being great for the weather, it wasn't crowded, as it was still the off season.We had the two bedroom/ three bathroom Panorama Suite on the 5th floor in Tower 5, which was OMG AMAZING!!!! Think for the first hour, I walked around taking tons of pictures of the inside and outside, and texting them to people back home. The place was HUGE! It looked exactly like the pictures on the website. Marble floors throughout, even on the balcony! The bathrooms were huge, the showers were huge, every room was huge! From the shower in the master bedroom, you had a view of the Pacific Ocean! The balcony had a hammock, an infinity hot tub, chaise lounges, table and chairs. Each evening from our balcony, we could hear the live music playing from TierraLuna, while watching the sunset over the water.Mike was our concierge every day at the pool, except his day off, and always greeted us with a big hello as soon as we got there. Hed see us coming and immediately got towels, and set them up on our chairs, as we always got the same chairs each day. Mike came over to us at our chairs several times each day to check on us and to let us know about the activities for the day, and answered any questions that we had. We were treated very well by him. One day he saw us walking in the pool holding our shirts and phone, and called to us so that he could take them to put on our chairs! Steve, our other concierge at the pool, was so friendly and full of energy, and always greeted us with a huge smile. He also knew which chairs wed always have, and had towels down on them for us.Gonzolo was our waiter at the pool, and always came over to us as soon as the food/drink service began at 11:00 AM. We never had to call him over; he always knew when we needed something! When our drinks were empty, he was right there. Hed even bring our drinks over to us when we were in either of the two infinity pools. That was the most amazing experienceto be drinking these signature drinks in the infinity pool, while overlooking the bay! Life doesn't get any better!!We took the Kayak tour to Los Arcos with Super Sexy Diego and had a great time. He made the trip a lot of fun. We snorkeled once we got to the arches, but the snorkeling was much better right off the beach at Garza Blanca, where the water was clearer and we saw much more fish.We did the Advanced Hike, which was a total of 2.2 miles. The hike started off needing to use ropes to climb up the mountain! No one in the group expected this for the hike, and we were all sweating SO much! But, we all enjoyed it a lot!! With being on the all inclusive package, it felt good to get exercise! Tito was our guide, and he was terrific in telling us exactly what we needed to do. He was very informative throughout the hike. The hike ended down at the waterfall, where we got to go in the water, which felt só good! A word of advice is to wear closed water shoes for the hike (not flip flops), as there are many places where you walk through the river, some places knee high. We wore sneakers, as we didnt know to pack water shoes, but our sneakers got nice and clean! The hike was an AMAZING experience!Rosa was our housekeeper, and did a fantastic job each day cleaning our room. She made designs out of the towels, and organized our toiletries on them. Everyday, she made animals out of the hand towels and washcloths, and left them on our bed; birds, swans. One day, she even left rose petals shaped in a giant heart on our bed.The only problem that we encountered with our trip, was after we got home, we saw that we were overcharged by $129. The balance of our trip was charged in Pesos, not in dollars. So, as a warning, upon arrival when you pay your balance, look over your bill carefully! I called the hotel almost every day for two weeks, and got nowhere; either no one would answer, Id get disconnected, or Id be told that someone would get back to me. Finally, a few days ago, after over two weeks of calling, Chelsea resolved the issue for me. She issued a credit for the full amount that we were overcharged. She stayed on the phone with me for exactly one hour, until the issue was resolved, which I greatly appreciated. A big thank you to Chelsea.Our vacation to Garza Blanca was an unbelievable experience, and we cant wait to go back!

Orlando was our in-house concierge and the second we entered into the breathtaking views of the lobby we were greeted with a friendly and accommodating welcome. Had amazing fresh juiced margaritas in hand and guided to settle in and and get right back out to downtown Puerto Vallarta to enjoy the festivities of Dia de Los Muertos street celebrations as well as where to find authentic taco spot that hit the spot!! :) these recs were not hotel related but simply for our pure enjoyment. The rest of the stay was the same with quality service and guiding us right!!! Thank you Orlando for making our stay at your diamond resort an incredible experience!! Above and beyond!

"Paradise!!!"

It was our 4th time in Mousai/Garza Blanca resort and it's definitely getting better and better. This time my wife and I spent a wonderful time in the North Tower Ultra Mousai Corner Suite. Every staff member here is helpful and friendly. Our butler Ernesto Ornelas is amazing, very easy to communicate with and quick to respond to all our needs. We got everything that we asked for!!! Geovani, Eduardo, Javier, and Ivis at the Terrace restaurant made our mornings special, with great service and personal attention to all guests. Vacation was so nice that we already made a new reservation for next year. Looking forward to returning and enjoying the beautiful ocean and grounds, and the amazing accommodation with great views and VIP service.

"Incredible Mousai!"

We are enjoying our incredible stay at Mousai North tower for our birthdays celebration! We havent even left the resort yet and still have a few days left but I had to write a review! EVERYTHING has been spectacular. We love all that this resort has to offer. We chose the all inclusive because it is a highend resort. We typically do all inclusive but are very picky since they all usually arent very good. The food is really good everywhere! Horoshi is the best, hands down. Our butler Lilith is phenomenal. She has made our stay 10/10! She always has a smile, is so friendly, and makes sure to check on us everyday! We cannot say enough about her. When we stay again, she will be our requested butler for sure! Mateo and Auturo on the rooftop pool have been so great everyday! The beach is beautiful as well and weve enjoyed the complimentary snorkeling, kayaking, hiking! One of our favorite things is the new Tera Luna! Once it is completed, its going to be a great addition to the resort! 2 additional restaurants, shopping is so great, and we loved the sunset cocktails. Also, we cant wait to come back to try the south tower and the new restaurants that will be coming there too!!So many positives, so many things to do, and we are very happy here! Thank you so much

"Rocky Start - 5 Star Service in the end "

We are members of Garza Blanca Residence Club (Mousai), and visit the property quite often. We decided to do a combined family trip taking our siblings and significant other and our moms (80 and 87) because we had our parent we thought all inclusive was the best choice. We had some challenges with making reservations at the restaurants we wanted ( at the moment is limited). I spoke with the General Manager, Johnathan Diaz and with the help Jessica (head of concierge) we were able to come up with a solution. I must admit the family trip with our elderly moms really had me on edge. Both Johnathon and Jessica really went above and above with accommodations and transportation into town. Jessica even had a birthday cake delivered to a restaurant in town for our celebration. Poolside - I must commend Francisco and Moises - they bring their A game everyday! We booked two suites in Tower 4 - which were amazing! We loved having the kitchens and the space for us to congregate as a family! As far as family trips goLet me say, for us - never again! This property gets better every year! The new additions, retail stores, a Starbucks and live music at the new patio with cocktails, a carousel! We are excited to see the addition of Lumeria residences!

She took the time to explain things to us and made the trip memorable. The entire staff was great. The guys at the pools with towels, the drink/ food runners - exceptional. The level of service this staff has is outstanding. Very prompt and courteous always acknowledging us. We will for sure be back!! My wife was here to photograph a wedding and she found so many great spots as well. If youre looking for a photographer- send a message! Cynthia the wedding planner was wonderful as well.

Garza Blanca never fails to exceed my expectations. We were staying with Elite members this time in the 3 bedroom ocean front penthouse and it was a perfect time. Impeccable, friendly service. Clean, perfectly kept rooms and grounds. The spa services we all received were some of the best weve ever had and some of us get massages all the time. Love the water circuit as usual.Food at all the restaurants fantastic. We did all-inclusive for 3 of our 7 days and it was fun to try all the things! Hiroshimas chefs choice dinner was excellent. Super fresh and delicious!Our dinner at Boca Dos was fantastic as well. Meat perfect (no grizzle like previous reviewers) and desserts were yum!

Our stay at Garza Blanca was honestly perfect. We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite that was Huge, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The food at all the restaurants were so delicious, and the lunches at the pool were fantastic as well. But what made our trip as wonderful as it was, is the service at Garza Blanca, the service here is outstanding. Our housekeeper Rosa left our room spotless and perfect everyday, treating us to beautiful towel displays and leaving her personal touch around the room. Antonio and all of the other servers (Im sorry I didnt get everyones name) were always so on top of everything, making sure we had everything we need, and going above and beyond for each and every order.

"Best service I've ever experienced"

Hotel Mousai blew our expectation out of the water! The pictures online don't even do the hotel and the views justice. This place was absolutely heavenly. Came here with my wife in Oct 2021 for our 5 year anniversary and we had a blast. We both travel a good amount and this trip was hands down our favorite trip we've ever been on. It felt like a cruise x100!The hotel itself was spotless and sparkly. The staff absolutely bends over backwards for you. Every time you step into a room, pool , restaurant, or wherever you are immediately greeted and assisted with whatever you need. The service was out of this world. No matter where we went, staff was getting us whatever we wanted right away. Food, drinks, towels, cigars, whatever we wanted. It was unreal, we felt like celebrities or royalty or something.The hotel felt very safe and the surrounding area did too. Our room was stunning we had an ultra north room. It comes with a butler and it's not much more expensive than the regular room--plus we got free spa services (only the hydra therapy section) during our stay so we did that every morning it was wonderful. I HIGHLY recommend getting a room that comes with a butler, the experience was once in a lifetime! Adults only really adds another level of serenity and was a great escape from our kids and kids alike lol.Cannot rave about this resort enough. Will definitely be coming back. Also, the food was DELICIOUS and so were the drinks. The sushi was incredible, the steakhouse, the mexican cuisine, EVERYTHING. The only food that was hit or miss was the room service. There were some dishes that weren't great but I still ate them.I also HIGHLY recommend doing the all-inclusive package if you come here. It is BEYOND worth the few extra hundred bucks. Every time we went to the pool we spent easily $200-$400 bucks, dinners we were dropping $300-$500, plus breakfast, lunch, and room service. We easily were spending close to $1,000 PER DAY on food and drinks. But we got charged for none of it because we got the all-inclusive package.

Like many of the other reviews, pictures do not do Hotel Mousai/Garza Blanca justice. The views, the food, the amenities, the services, and the staff are all top notch. We felt welcomed from the minute we were picked up from the airport until we were dropped off a week later. The front desk staff, concierges, wait staff, suite service, spa staff, housekeeping, trolley drivers, bartenders, butlers, bell hops, maintenance workers - all were phenomenal in providing excellent customer service. We would like to recognize:At Mousai - Concierges Penny & Rosy, butler Carlos RamosAt Garza Blanca - Concierge Bonnie, beach waiter Brayan, and kayak/activities instructor Diego. All of the staff at both properties we encountered were warm, friendly, and welcoming. But these individuals went above and beyond in providing an experience that we will never forget. We hope to come back again, and plan on telling our friends what a wonderful place Puerto Vallarta is, and why Tafer Properties are the ONLY place to call home while in Mexico. Muchísima gracias de nuevo por todo!

"Theeeee absolute bestttttt!!!!"

I have never experienced such luxury at a resort before! From the staff, to the amenities, to the food, everything was top notch. We had our own personal butler named Carlos Ramos and he was incredibly professional, friendly, inviting and helpful! He went above and beyond for us at a level I have never experienced. He assisted us with dinner reservations, transportation to our excursions. He even helped our friends with their arrangements as well. I wasnt feeling well at one point during the trip and he got some medication for me that I requested! He made my trip better when my illness could have ruined it and I am so grateful for that. The hotel rooftop infinity pool is beautiful and our room was gorgeous. Im still on a high! We will come back again. I want to give a special thank you to Carlos for making this trip memorable for us! Please go for all inclusive, its worth it.I have so much more to say but these are the highlights:1. The restaurants are amazing! If you go to the steakhouse, get the outdoor seating the view is beautiful at sunset. If you go to the Mexican restaurant, order the Mexican coffee, the presentation is amazing. 2. The infinity pool view is so stunning! You can take really great pictures up there and order lunch and drinks. 3. Opt for the ultra suites because having the butler service was just the epitome of top notch service and honestly I had never experienced anything like that. It will take a lot to top my experience at hotel mousai. They exceeded my expectations and the pictures on the website did not do this experience justice. We loved everything!

"Feeling like royalty"

Paradise, tranquility, feeling like royalty, feeling special, and coming home, are the first words and thoughts that come to me when I think of Garza Blanca. We have been coming to Garza Blanca since 2015 and we are never disappointed in the service and care. The place is growing with new towers, but the buildings always seem to be well-maintained and cared for. I have stayed in many fancy hotels and timeshares and Garza Blanca has always remained my favorite.Housekeeping is top notch. Where have you ever been where they put dried flowers in a little pouch they made out of toilet paper on the toilet paper roll? Or turned the toilet paper into a bowtie? Or embossed the logo of Garza Blanca into the folded toilet paper? Not only are our beds made, floors swept and mopped, but housekeeping takes the time to retie the robes thats been hanging or left behind as well as make you feel youre on a cruise with bath towels turned into designs or critters. Marisol López always makes sure we are in need of nothing. Ana López takes care of turn down service leaving dried flowers, a treat, mood lighting, and making new towel designs or critters. Ana replaces items needing replacement. I seriously could continue with accolades: the drivers of the trolleys, landscaping, concierge, wait staff, pool personnel, all acknowledge your presence and want to do whatever it takes to make this your home and feeling content.

"Amazing stay, stellar service"

We stayed at Hotel Mousai Mon-Friday in mid-October for our honeymoon, in an Ultra suite on the 11th floor. We had an incredible experience, and would recommend staying at Mousai to anyone - the service was stellar, our room was incredible and we felt so pampered throughout our stay. We paid $2800 for five days, four nights, all-inclusive in an Ultra suite in mid-October (low season). October is hurricane season in Puerto Vallarta, but we got really lucky and there was only rain one night! I called the call center to get this rate, which was about 10-15% off what was listed on the website. I also asked to make our dinner reservations in advance, which I did over email. Previous reviewers mentioned construction noise - construction definitely is still happening, and we heard it occasionally from our balcony, but we didn't find it intrusive and it never happened at night. Getting to the resort: This (along with the timeshare sales pitch) was the most annoying part of the whole experience. We landed at PVR and had to run a gauntlet of salespeople before we were able to get out and call our Uber. Definitely feel free to ignore these people - I wish we had been more aggressive about getting away from them. The only useful piece of information that we gained was that, to call an Uber, you go to the left after exiting the airport and cross the pedestrian bridge. Ubers can take a while to come (ours took 15-20 minutes). Also, if you want to start your day with a shot, they will give you free tequila. Check-in & Check-out:Fernando helped us at check-in and remembered us at check-out, which was so nice of him. The welcome beverages were delicious, and he was able to answer all of our questions as first-time visitors. He immediately scheduled us for our COVID test, which we took on Wednesday for a Friday departure. He then passed us off to Rosy, who we thought was our butler, but was actually there to sell us on a timeshare presentation - we gave that a hard pass. She was also able to book us for a Los Arcos kayak tour (through Garza Blanca) the next morning, and confirm our dinner reservation for that night. The Room: We were in an Ultra suite on the 11th floor (6112). The room was huge and incredible. We had a balcony with a jacuzzi tub, sitting area and two-person hammock, a gigantic, very comfortable bed, a sitting area, and a gigantic bathroom. Housekeeping came twice a day, once in the morning to clean up and once in the evening for turn-down service. I didn't get her name, but I loved the housekeeper that we had. We bumped into her a lot, especially in the evening - she was so friendly and so efficient. Dinner: Based on other reviews here, we ate at BOCADOS STK (two dinners) and Hiroshi (two dinners). By far, our favorite dinners were at Hiroshi - we loved the team that served us our first night (Miguel, Eric and Leonardo) and asked to be seated in their section again when we returned two nights later. To our delight, they remembered us and all of our favorite dishes from the night before! Miguel in particular provided exceptional service, was incredibly friendly and patient, gave us great recommendations and generally made sure we had the best time. We're usually very fast eaters, but we found ourselves lingering for hours over our meals there. We loved the Yuzu Salmon sashimi and the Wasabi Ribeye, as well as the Hiroshi Martini. BOCADOS STK was also a good dining experience, although the service was a lot more hands off. They were out of the dry aged steaks our firsts night and we had a good ribeye and a very dry tenderloin, but we had the dry aged New York and the dry aged ribeye our second night, both of which were great. We also enjoyed their vegetable sides. Other food: We spent a few hours on the Rooftop every day, which we loved. Mon-Wed was very empty on the rooftop (on Tuesday, I think we might have been the only people there for a few hours!) and it was always easy to get a lounger in the shade and take great infinity pool videos. Thursday was a little busier. There was amazing live sax music, and we loved the food. We especially loved the chicken popcorn (I think we ordered this three times), as well as the baja shrimp tacos and the lychee and mango sorbets were incredible as well. We also frequently ordered room service, which always came very promptly. I will say overall that we aren't big drinkers, but we didn't love any of the drinks that we got - they always seemed a little watered down. The room service curly fries, though, were incredible. And they were always great about accommodating requests - for example, hot tea isn't typically served outside of breakfast hours, but they always brought it when we asked! We also dined on the Terrace for breakfast twice - they have great smoothies. Angel was our server and made amazing recommendations about those. He was so friendly and thoughtful. Activities: We did the Los Arcos kayak and snorkel tour with Diego on our first morning, and went back two days later to borrow stand-up paddle boards and snorkel gear from him. He was very engaging and clearly excited about his job. We really enjoyed the kayak tour, but be warned that you have to kayak 2.5 miles each way and end up snorkeling for a relatively brief amount of time as a result. Bryan helped us while we were at the beach there, and he was amazing - very friendly, always around precisely when we needed him. We did also book a tennis time, which was probably our biggest mistake - the tennis facilities were not staffed, and were not particularly well maintained. We also had to wait 30+ minutes for a pick-up afterwards, and there were many mosquitos. However, we saw a bunch of lemurs while we were playing, which was a highlight of the trip to me! There is also hiking, but we hadn't packed appropriate shoes - based on how much wildlife we saw just walking around, I'm sure it would have been incredible. Spa: The Ultra suite package comes with access to the hydrotherapy circuit in the spa, which we did twice! It was fairly easy to get an appointment while we were there. We went through the whole circuit our first time, but skipped the vitality bath on our second visit - we didn't really enjoy it. But we loved the sauna rooms, and loved having someone walk us through the different steps. The view from the spa is also fantastic. Butler: Carlos was our butler, and he was great! So responsive, had answers to all of our questions (and we had many questions!) and was able to manage our calendar really well. I would absolutely recommend him.

"10th Anniversary Celebration in Paradise"

We've traveled all over Mexico for vacation but the Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta is by far the best resort we've visited. The property is gorgeous with lush greenery, beautiful infinity pools, spacious and well air-conditioned rooms, on the beach (where there was no seaweed and we actually were able to get in the water and swim) and perhpas most importantly, the food was FABULOUS! Many thanks to Bryan at the beach for taking such great care of our food and drink needs and to the rest of the staff that provided excellent customer service during our stay.This is our first but not last time staying at the Garza Blanca family of properties.

"Garza Blanca Wedding anniversary and family trip"

Orlando at the concierge desk took time to talk with me regarding some dinner reservations we needed and inquired about our experience that day at Garza Blanca PV and how he might assist us moving forward to make our stay the most accommodating and enjoyable as possible. He worked to get some very hard to find reservations at the resorts Japanese restaurant and helped us make additional arrangements for an anniversary dinner celebration. Orlando also helped change some misconceived impressions we had on a prior trip to the GB Cancun property. Thank you Orlando for smoothing the rough edges of that prior trip and helping make our stay at GB Puerto Vallarta a memorable one. See you soon. The Loera Family.

"Friends 40th Birthday Celebration "

This was my second visit to Garza with my husband and this time we brought 4 of my best girlfriends and their husbands with us to celebrate our 40th birthdays. As always, check in was a breeze with Jovah and Steph. Room (honeymoon suite) and view are gorgeous and very clean. Capt. Bell Boy, Carlo Cicero, and his team take great care of a luggage. Daniel and Oscar at the Blanca Blue served amazing cocktails. Mateo at Rooftop tolerated our large group and all of our shenanigans with patience and a smile. At Hiroshi, my favorite restaurant, Christian, Erik, and their fabulous team never fail at making us feel like royalty. Service and food is top notch! Room service was delicious. Delivery was fantastic and prompt. We spent most of our days on the beach or at the pool. Roberto was at the panorama pool during our stay and he is absolutely charming, quick with drinks and was willing to take many pictures for my girlfriends and me at the pool. He and the bartenders made our girls day so much more fun! Last but definitely not least, I have to mention Angel at the main pool by the beach. He went out of his way to get me some special dishes from the kitchen while hanging out at the pool. He never walked past us without asking us if we needed anything. My drink was never empty and if the ice melted too fast I had another drink before I could even ask. We did have an issue with our room on the 5th day due to construction being done on the floor below. We were moved immediately to a different honeymoon suite with a better view. The bell boys moved our things for us without hassle. Capt. Carlo runs a wonderful team.All in all, this place is epic. Truly a must if traveling to Puerto Vallarta. I can't wait to see the beautiful landscape/ resort and wonderful staff again.

We stayed in Garza Blanca PV 11 days, initially we had planned only 5 days but ended up extending our stay because we loved Garza Blanca. Andrea our concierge was the most amazing and she helped with any and all the questions we had. Not to mention all the great food and the stores they have, all the employees were beyond nice. Definitely planning another trip soon to Garza Blanca!

"Best hotel experience EVER"

My husband and I had the most amazing stay at Garza Blanca celebrating my birthday and our minimoon (we are a 2020 couple)! This hotel has the BEST customer service we have ever experienced. The entire staff was so friendly and helpful and take the time to get to know you, which was so nice! The included experiences Garza Blanca offers are a must! We did the free hike to the waterfall with Oswaldo and Steven, who are super fun and energetic guides! We used our water shoes on the hike, which were useful since half of the hike is through water and you get to swim in the waterfall at the end! We also did kayaking and snorkeling with Diego and that was such a great experience! Diego is so knowledgeable and explains everything! We saw beautiful fish! If activities arent your thing, relaxing at the pool is more than enough! The service is superb! Alvaro was our waiter and was so attentive. Tito assisted us with towels and anything we needed. Javier is part of the security staff and was so friendly and helpful! He moved an umbrella for us so we could stay in the shade! Now lets get to the food. O-M-G! What a delicious food adventure! You need reservations for dinner. Typically we would go to Blanca Blue, which serves Mexican food, for breakfast (buffet) and lunch. Wow! The food was so delicious and there are fresh juices in the morning. My favorite dinner spot was Hiroshi, a sushi spot. The view was amazing, I highly recommend sitting outside. The sushi and sashimi were so FRESH and tasty, not to mention, the drinks were delicious! My husbands favorite restaurant was Bocados, the steakhouse. I loved the garlic mashed potatoes and you can go wrong with the table side Caesar salad service. Every night, there is turndown service. Thank you to Marisol for taking care of that for us! Overall, we had the most wonderful experience! We cant wait to visit Garza Blanca again!

"Perfect, Post Covid Visit"

We were at Garza Blanca to celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary this September. This was my second time visiting for our anniversary and it did not disappoint. Starting with our lovely concierge, Fernanda. She was kind and helpful, making sure to make reservations for each day of our visit. Housekeeping was phenomenal. Laura F and Maricel always made our rooms were immaculate. The last night was made special with a bubble bath with roses and roses throughout the room. It was a nice surprise. I want to also mention the fabulous staff at Blanca Blue, Rubi, Lorena, Keven, and Javier at the dinner. Last but not least, Tito always provided help and a smile at the poolside. This resort is amazing, and I will be back next year!

"Great hotel, especially the rooms"

We had looked at this hotel a few times and with the Grand Americana changing to be a family resort now run by the Hilton we decided to give it a try. We went with the AI plan.We arrived prior to check in time, so went to the roof top and had lunch, changed into our bathing suits and stayed there until the room was available. The food was good, however the guacamole tasted like the it had been store bought, it definitely was not homemade (no chunks of avocado, and lacked flavor) We had a corner room, it was on a lower floor but that ended up being fine. We loved the huge deck, and hammock. The large room was really nice, loved that it had a ceiling fan as well as good size and well stocked mini bar. We ate at Hiroshi, the Mexican, Italian and the steak house. The Japanese was probably our favorite, the Mexican the least.. the food was really bland. The Italian was nice as they sat us outside on the beach. The Steak house was good, and we didn't have to order anything that cost extra.We typically ate at the rooftop for lunch, really good onion rings, burritos, the shrimp burger was huge! The service and the drinks were the big disappointment. The pool chairs were never 100% full and there were always 3-4 servers and 2 bartenders. However we typically had to get their attention away from chatting with one another at the bar to get service. We tried tipping them $10-20 to start each day and it did not seem to matter. The drinks were also very weak. We ended up moving to the lower pool in between buildings 4 & 5 where they only had one bartender and 1-2 servers and had much better service as well as drinks.We also signed up and participated in the morning kayak trip to the arches ? (we never got much information about the landmarks from the guide). Our guide Diego, was a happy go-lucky guy, "okey dokey".. it is a long trip, unfortunately the water was not conducive to see anything during the snorkeling portion of the trip. The trip was advertised as about a 1 hour 45 min.. it actually ended up being 3 hours. Would not do it again.We did have a couple room issues where they did not restock the mini bar one day, and another day they did not leave any bath towels, but those were really minor issues. The new tower is still under construction so you can hear that noise, it looks like they have several months left before it is finished. Overall, we loved the grounds of the hotel, the room, patio and overall service. We would return.

We were at Garza Blanca for our 8 day family vacation. Careli provided housekeeping services to our 2 bedroom suite, and did a great job.

"The perfect couples all-inclusive experience!"

This resort was amazing! Breathtaking views from ALL rooms and restaurants. Even the spa has a floor to ceiling outlook over the ocean and the entire city. I would recommend the panoramic view room over the ocean view when selecting especially as a couple due to the peace and serenity of the location. This resort is also apart of hotel mousai so you can get access to their restaurants and amenities as well. The 3 different pools were all infinity that overlooked the oceans and the city. The pools were rarely crowded and the staff was very attentive at all times of day. Very few kids running around the resort which was great for a couples or solo relaxation trip. (Not family friendly) All of the restaurants were high-end cuisines. The dinner at the Italian restaurant is set up romantically on the beach so you can take in the ocean and watch the sunset with surprise fireworks. The spa is a MUST if you stay. Hydrotherapy treatment is an added bonus with every spa treatment. It was definitely worth the relaxation and the masseuse was perfect(I dozed off a few times). The resort is perfectly situated close to the city but not in the city which gave it a more reserve and retreat experience. They have many activities to do for free at the resort (kayak, yoga, run, and hiking, etc.) The resort has a trolley that takes you around the resort which can be a plus or minus depending on how you look at it. But we rarely had to wait a long time for the trolley. (Sanitizer provided every time you enter) The staff was on par at every moment consistently greeting and at your every request. Did not have to wait long for room service and they continued to come around with food and drinks throughout the day to check on your experience. If you sign up for the presentation you get a free city tour and 50% off the spa which was very beneficial. Covid testing on site!!! Added bonus especially for traveling back.We traveled around to see all the other hotels in the city and this resort definitely stands out!

"Lovely Even During a Hurricane"

My husband and I visited La Garza Blanca for our belated Honeymoon. We had a wonderful time. The room was absolutely beautiful. We loved spending time out by the two infinity pools, sipping the occasional cocktail and massive amounts of nachos. We loved the restaurants that were on-site, especially Blanca Blue. Orlando, our concierge, made sure every detail for us was taken care of. He was available to help with last minute reservations and gave us good advice on how to make the most of our trip. We did unfortunately have a hurricane occur during our stay, however, we were able to spend the time at the amazing spa. Would definitely recommend staying here!

"Best trip ever away from our kids"

This hotel has exceptional service, food and amenities. Our Ultra plus suite was well equipped with a hot tub, electronic curtains and awesome sound system on the iPad. 24-7 room service was such a treat. Toto toilets, turn down service, heavenly bedding and aromatherapy options - could you ask for more ?The staff was incredible. Special shot out to our Butler Carlos Ramos. He was smart, attentive and quick. Booked all our reservations for food and the spa, including transportation and anything we needed whatsoever. Checked in on us daily. What a fun treat and unique service that the hotel offers.Loved out hydrotherapy guide Jose. What a sweet and friendly individual who made the experience so fun for us. If youre going to get a massage, pick Louise. Best massage Ive ever had, no joke. Nathaly at the front desk checked us in and helped answer everything question we had with a smile. If you have a chance do the kayaking experience within Diego. Hes so much fun!! We got to scuba as well and see some really cool fish. Loved the waterfall hike with Waldo and Steven. Again, they just made the experience so enjoyable. The restaurants and food and drinks were top notch. Loved the rooftop bar at Mousai, as well as the Japanese restaurant. Room service also rocked. Great music everywhere. I will say 90% of the staff is so amazing and will go the extra mile to make your stay perfect. The other 10% is just so so and you can really tell the difference between the groups. For instance, a lot of the staff at the pool will hand you drinks in the pool and chat and make sure youve got what you need. Others will drop off drinks and not say a word. Once you get use to the exceptional staff you can really see the difference between the average and the exceptional servers, waiters, bartenders, etc. Overall couldnt have asked for more. If you wanna feel like youre in a hotel there to serve you and make you feel like a king and queen for a few days, this is where its at!! Views that will make your heart happy at every place in the hotel. Now, back to world and the real world

We also did the couples massage at Spa Imagine and the hydrotherapy beforehand was delightful.

Lots of good things to say. Lorena, Julio and Rubi provided me a quick lunch at Blanca Blue when I needed fast service. I met Rubi a couple times during my stay and she was always a delight to interact with. Everyone was terrific, but I think she deserves a special shout out. Other notes: The massage in the spa is fantastic. The whole staff up there is great (I think his name is Josue at the spa was real helpful with the hydrotherapy). Definitely get the Duck Cracklings and Mole at Blue. My room location made the construction unwelcome. Ramon down at the beach was great, too.

"5 Star 5 Diamond Phenomenal Resort Stay"

We stumbled upon Garza Blanca Resort & Spa (Puerto Vallarta) at the very last moment... as in, the day prior to our travel. I only wanted to RELAX for a few days. Beautiful turquoise-blue water, warm climate, soft sand, and a pristine ambiance were my primary requirements for a sweet little get-a-way. My Honey found just that! Garza Blanca exceeded my expectations and we had the BEST time! So wonderful, that I can now call it HOME! It goes without saying that HOME is where the HEART is... and when you are blessed to have built new relationships/friendships upon that, it's GOLDEN! While we built an amazing rapport with all whom we encountered, the CUSTOMER SERVICE here at Garza Blanca was absolutely impeccable! From start to finish, it truly was. Our personal concierge, DANTE', was a true sweetheart who kept a smile. We went without NOTHING b/c this fine young man tended to us with utmost care, quality, and perfection! And our personal "right hand man", GUSTAVO, was sincere, devoted, down to earth, professional, and a class act in his own right! It was Gustavo who shared his expertise about Garza Blanca and made us feel right at HOME. Another fine gentleman indeed; he took remarkable care of us!Our room was in Tower 4...absolutely gorgeous! Panoramic ocean view, large windows with bathtub ocean view as well. Huge balcony with my all time favorite - a hammock! Só relaxing.We wanted to lay low, so our only excursion(s) was to go Kayaking and Snorkeling. We did both with "The Super Sexy" DIEGO! Diego had our excursion team of 16 feeling oh so SUPER SEXY! His spunk, enthusiasm, and knowledge had us all engaged and in laughter. It was great, as was Diego.SPA services were very enjoyable and well worth it. Our couples massage was outstanding! We loved it!The hospitality here is definitely FIVE STAR! Great dining, amazing drinks, awesome music, beautifully manicured property, attentive wait staff, CLEAN facilities, sweet housekeeping, room service on point...just grand!

We had covid testing right on the property which made traveling back home stress-free. We will definitely be back to Garza Blanca!

"One of the BEST vacations to date! Hotel Mousai is where its at. Thank you Carlos!"

This was our first time at Hotel Mousai but definitely not our last. We stayed in the Ultra Suite and it was beautiful! We had a walk out balcony with a hammock and hot tub. The facilities we clean and everyone was so polite! We also had an amazing butler Carlos who took care of literally everything!!! He made reservations, helped pack/unpack clothes, arranged transportation, and even recommended places to visit. Our trip was so much more relaxing with him helping! Definitely would visit again and already thinking of getting the penthouse! Highly recommend!

"Great beach spot!"

My stay at Garza Blanca was great, and mainly due to all the awesome staff we worked with. Rogelio was especially amazing! We went to the beach everyday and he took care of everything, while being so friendly and full of recommendations! Cant thank him enough.

"Mousai in September"

This hotel is modern and sleek. Amazing service. Butlers provide timely information and assistance and enhance experience. Views at the back of the mountains, and from the front of the ocean. Hotel is across street from ocean, easy walk or quick shuttle from hotel. All food outlets are great with great variety. Highly recommend this hotel. All inclusive experience, adult only. If you travel with other families, Garza next door is family friendly.

"Relaxing Resort"

We came here to relax in paradise and we could not have picked a better spot! Garza Blanca is on the south end of the bay - away from the main resort drag. It is tucked away in the lush jungle and offers breathtaking views. Our suite (2 bedroom panorama) was incredible. The suite was in good condition and very comfortable. All of the staff were friendly, helpful and respectful. I want to single out our two pool servers, Juan and Alex, as they were particularly excellent when it came to service. We enjoyed getting to know them both and were grateful for their help. Bottom line: this is a great resort for a relaxing getaway.

This place is a 4 diamond hotel for a reason. Everything was wonderful! The staff here is very helpful, friendly and provided the absolute best service. From the moment you arrive to the hotel a concierge greets you and takes you in a tour to the resort. Bocados steak house was delicious as was Blanca blue. Spa was wonderful as well just wished I stayed longer. I definitely didnt want to leave but I honestly had the best time here and the service here is stellar. I highly recommend this place!

"Great service and the only place we stay in PV"

Spent a week at Mousai for our anniversary the beginning of September. It was our second time and it remains the only place we stay in Puerto Vallarta. We didnt get to try the new restaurants as they weren't quite done but we'll be sure to check out the new tower once it's complete. We had a corner ultra suite which includes butler service and our butler Carlos was very attentive and made our Anniversary feel extra special. Even during some tropical storms, we had some great relaxation during by the pool.The staff was very friendly as always and were all wearing masks which helped keep it safe. Labor day weekend however was extremely busy however, so we did encounter very busy restaurants (with entire families dining in) which is something you need to navigate.

Truly a high-end adults-only resort with the best of everything! Service, rooms, food, amenities - all top notch! We were only there for two nights and reserved an all-inclusive package in an Ultra Mousai Suite and wish we couldve just stayed for the entirety of our trip, but we look forward to coming again and staying in the new South Tower.

"Best Hotel I have ever stayed in!"

I stayed at Hotel Mousai for six days and had a really excellent experience. Everything is top tier here, from the food to the views to the staff. I will be returning here for my next vacation in PV. The staff here is incredibly friendly and attentive. We had worked with Carlos Ramos, a butler for our reservations and he was amazing. Super friendly and nice and took care of everything for us. Also really loved Angel, Leo, Abraham and Alan who saw us multiple times at the restaurants and always remembered us! The rooms are very nice, with AC and a hot tub on every balcony. Everything in the room is very clean and room was stylish. We also used the spa and had what was honestly the best facial I have ever gotten. There is hydrotherapy included with every spa service (hot tub, steam room, sauna, cold pool) which was also fun and relaxing. I would recommend anyone in PV who is looking for a 5-star experience to stay here, I had zero complaints about my stay here!

First time at Garza in PVR and we will definitely be returning. From the moment you arrive to when you check out, the staff is on their A-game. Our host, Orlando, was just super. He made every effort to accommodate reservations at each restaurant on-site, even when we had difficulties with our schedule. Thank you, Orlando! Not only is the staff extremely helpful and courteous, but the resort amenities are also wonderful as well. The pools and hot tubs were perfect. The food and drinks were the cherry on top as you kicked back and relaxed. We'll be back with friends next time! Thank you for a memorable experience at Garza, it was a great time.

"Best concierge service from an amazing hotel"

This was my first time coming to PV. We stayed at this hotel on the 1st of Sept for 5 nights and it was the definitely one of the nicest hotel that we ever stayed in Mexico. The view from our 2 bedroom panorama suite was fabulous. We had our own jacuzzi and the 180 degree view overlooking the ocean. We purchase the all inclusive from Costo and had no regret because the food from their 4 restaurants exceeded our expectations. The food not only taste good, but the presentation was excellent. The hotel also offer a lot of free amenities, kayak tour, snorkel gears, paddle board and waterfall hiking tour. Top that off with the excellent concierge service we received from the hotel staff Orlando, this trip was more then what we could ask for. Orlando was very helpful during our entire stay. He explain in detail what we can expect the day we arrived and all of the service that we can take advantage of during our stay. But it was just the concierge service that amazed us. The entire hotel staff that we met and bump into was all smiles and very polite. Aside from all the good things I mention above, there were 1 or 2 bad things about this hotel. 1. This hotel going through construction to add newer towers, which if you are not a morning person, then you might be affected from the noise in the morning. 2. For you to reach the main lobby and the beach, you would need to take the trolley down which might not be as convenient for some. All in all, this hotel was great. There are more pros then cons which I would definitely go back to stay at this hotel on my next vacation back to PV. Covid testing is done on site at this hotel on Tower 4 and results from the test usually takes about 7-8 hours.

We had an amazing evening. Our servers Christian and Jose were fantastic. The desserts (miso creme brlée and tapioca dish) sent us over the edge into a delightful oblivion. Cant wait to eat here on our next trip into Puerto Vallarta. Thank you Hiroshi for an amazing meal!!

"Amazing experience!"

I stayed for 5 days at Garza Blanca with my husband and I was happily surprised to see the great service they provide. I was a little concerned about COVID restrictions but everything was super clean and following the highest standards. What I think made my time there a truly memorable experience is how obliging all the staff were particularly Javier Suárez X from security, my congratulations for your excellent performance. Regarding the facilities, the hotel is situated very close to the hill so the view (and service) from the Spa and restaurants they share with the Mousai Hotel were amazing. The beach is also very nice and the sea so peaceful it was almost like a second pool. Truly recommend staying here.

"Garza Blanca August Vacation"

Amazing. My wife and I love to travel. We like Garza Blanca for their beautiful new resorts and great food. All staff was pleasant as expected, but there was one fabulous. We met a poolside waiter named ANGEL, at pool by Blanca Blue restaurant; who was outstanding. He was so attentive and made us feel he wanted to do more for us. He never made us feel like he expected a big tip, but we tipped him well anyway. He was part of the reason our vacation was amazing; thanks Angel. I recommend, to visit this resort, and enjoy the poolside service. Ask for Angel and the main pool by the beach. Food was amazing. Rooms so elegant. I'm going back next August, you can count on that. Oh, and the fireworks in the evening make it a bit more special. Like when we were having dinner.My stay was Aug 30-Sept 3, 2021.

The moment we got onto the resort we were welcomed with fresh juice beverages. The staff and everyone on premise were very welcoming.

We had a studio but the view itself was breathtaking.My boyfriend did the kayak with our friend and had an amazing time! They were very impressed with the instructor - Javier. Theres also stretching classes lead by - Oswaldo ! We did the trekking hike with our guide, Mike, (who is super awesome definitely recommend doing the hikes that hes leading). Fair warning the hike is definitely an intermediate hike but i promise you its worth it. But make sure you hydrate and bring bug spray!This is definitely a place we will return again.

"Hotel Mousai, Paradise in Puerto Vallarta"

The Hotel Mousai is an absolutely beautiful property. We were more than overjoyed with all the facilities. We had upgraded to the Ultra Corner Suite before we arrived to the hotel. Upon arrival the hotel had made an error in reservations and they did not have an Ultra Corner Suite available for the first night of our 6 nights. They did however put us in an Ultra Suite for one night and moved us to an Ultra Corner Suite the next day. They even refunded our full amount of the upgrade for all 6 nights. Amazing customer service! If you have never had the opportunity to stay in a room with a Butler I would recommend it highly! Our Butler was Carlos Ramos and he did an exceptional job in taking care of all of our needs during our stay. He made our reservations for all on resort activities daily as well as arranging for all of our dinners. He also arranged for our Tequila Distillery tour in Puerto Vallarta. Carlos even arrange for our room to be decorated for my birthday with flowers and a cake. It was really a nice gesture for him to arrange this for me.The Rooftop pool was amazing and the service was spectacular. We were constantly checked on by the pool servers and they always made sure that our drink glasses were constantly full. The Rooftop also has a nice snack menu that can be ordered and eaten by the pool or at tables under a roof.We enjoyed the private beach and the use of snorkel equipment. We saw many beautiful fish in the rock barrier that is on the beach. We also enjoyed just walking down the beach and experiencing the natural sites.I would stonefly recommend going on the long hike with tour guide Tito. He is very knowledgeable of the plants in the rain forest as what can be eaten and pointing out special plants and trees along the way. He is quite the entertainer and very humorous and fun. The pinnacle of the hike and reward is getting to the waterfall for a nice swim before the journey back to the hotel.All the restaurants were spectacular in service, presentation, and above all great food. Our favorite restaurants were Blanca Blue and The Terrace. Hiroshi and BocaDos were also exceptional in quality but we just preferred the other two. My only complaint about the dining is that we paid for All Inclusive and brought our own wine to enjoy for dinner. We were charged a corkage fee to drink our own wine instead of consuming their free wines provided in our All Inclusive. Just doesnt make any sense to me as we tipped very well our servers regardless of the wine consumed at dinner.Other than that we had an exceptional vacation and will definitely be returning in the future to spend time at this beautiful oasis!

"Absolutely MAGICAL!"

This was my first trip to Puerto Vallarta. I came for a conference and decided to stay a few extra days at the Hotel Mousai. OMG! After a crazy couple of years the above and beyond pampering, care and service that I received during my stay was off the charts amazing! I booked an ultra suite which included extra amenities including a butler ... Carlos was outstanding! He checked in with me several times a day, made reservations for the restaurants and spa, confirmed transportation, brought me items from the gift shop ... wish I could have taken him home with me :-) The rooms were spacious and luxurious. (I was in a corner suite for a few days and then a beautiful suite on the 11th floor.) The food at the resort was fabulous. Every meal had my taste buds exploding ... room service was no different. I loved spending time at the rooftop pool and received several spa treatments which were delightful. The entire staff made my trip a unique and wonderful experience. I even decided to stay a couple of extra days ... I didn't want to leave. Puerto Vallarta is a truly magical place and my stay at the Hotel Mousai took it to a whole new level. So GRATEFUL! I am planning a trip back soon.

"Fantastic Vacation experience"

From the time we arrived to the time we left, the service was friendly and excellent. The amenities range from live music to paddle boards and everything in between. Food was fantastic and the drinks were excellent, well worth the all inclusive package. Every staff you come across greets you with heartfelt warmth and will go above and beyond to make your experience worth while. Julio in reception was quick and efficient. Not only did he take care of us, he got us a higher floor than we expected with a gorgeous view. Thanks Julio! And then there are the unsung heroes like Andrea in housekeeping (Tower 3, 5th floor). She kept everything spotless and even made nice designs with the cover on the bed. It's the little things that matter and she was great! And last bit not least, the concierge. These guys do it all. Your name messed up? They fix it. You want to take an excursion, they can set you up. Need last second dining reservations, they squeeze you in. I'd like to thank Dante for taking such great care of us. On a side note, the staff aren't faking being kind and polite. We ran into Dante in town on his day off and he saw us and said hello and chatted with us, even gave us some local tips. All in all, I couldn't ask for a better experience at a resort. We will return next year to celebrate our 20th anniversary and can't think of a better place to spend it together!

"Unforgettable Memories!"

Definitely the very best resort in Puerto Vallarta, there is no request or complaint that is not addressed and resolved on the spot. Very comfortable and spacious suites with amazing views, Food is excellent especially if you have the all-inclusive plans which includes in-room dining. Kids Club provides excellent service. Resort is very clean, and Housekeeping pays attention to details and available for additional cleaning upon request.Darinka, the Front Office Manager is an ultra-professional, attentive and will do her best to accommodate guests requests, she is a great front image to the resort and the main reason we extended our stay twice.Special thanks to the hardworking staff members; Karen is Sales, the hostesses and staff of Bocados and Balnca Blue restaurants and our housekeeper Rosalia.Garza Blanca Peurto Vallarta is highly recommended without any hesitation, we look forward to our return and to visiting other Garza Resort in Cancun and Los Cabos.

The attention to detail is amazing. The staff are genuine and eager to help you. Abraham was our most favorite server at the Hiroshi restaurant. His recommendations never failed.

"Delicious food & drinks, insane views, hospitable staff"

My wife and I celebrated our ten year anniversary at the Mousai - a long awaited trip. We've been wanting to go for a while now and finally everything aligned. We were so delighted with everything. Hydrotherapy that comes with the Ultra Mousai was worth it (basically, all day spa access!) and we went every day (Josue is amazing, a real asset to the Mousai and will excel in any position). Highly recommend the rooibos tea and an oatmeal cookie in the spa after the vitality pool.The rooftop pool speaks for itself, I don't need to write anything about that. Staff on the roof are highly attentive, especially compared to the beach or poolside at Garza Blanca. Don't get me wrong, everyone is great all over, but the service at the rooftop pool is special. Don't miss the baja shrimp tacos or the coconut shrimp on the roof. Don't miss all the amazing sashimi at Hiroshi. If you have the option for room service breakfast I think that's the best option or if you enjoy a big gourmet breakfast buffet experience you can go to Blanca Blue next to the beach.The hikes behind the hotel are great - they don't take that long and you get a nice flavor of the forest, river and swimming at the waterfall is so fun! The standup paddleboards were not available because the sea was 'too rough' which was a disappointment so we did a little kayaking instead. I think the all-inclusive plan is really worth it, even if you're not a big drinker there is so much good food to try. If I was staying more than four or five days I think the all-inclusive would get a little tiresome as you can venture out to downtown for dinner or even just eat something smaller at the hotel restaurants which are relatively affordable in their own right. If you are into your drinks then the all-inclusive is a no-brainer. You won't be disappointed. Thanks to all the Hotel Mousai staff for making a great vacation for us. Hopefully vacation travel continues to tick up and remain strong for you. We'll save up and be sure to come back for another visit when we're able, and maybe bring the kids!

The food was excellent, room service was delivered in about 10 minutes- seriously, it was so quick I don't know how they do it.The best aspect is the staff. Genuine, warm, friendly, efficient service from caring people. I usually prefer smaller hotels, but this place delivers a world-class 5 star experience.

My husband and I came to hotel mousai for our honeymoon. I cant say enough good enough things. Impeccable service, food and views from every room. We had a corner suite with a large deck, butler, private hot tub and an incredible view. The only thing that could motivate me to leave our incredible view was the roof deck pool! Stunning. I think the most telling thing was that every person we met had been coming here for years. Once you discover this place its so hard to leave! Also shout out to our butler Carlos who booked all of our spa activities and dinner reservations! Effortless vacation. I cant say enough good things.

"My sister got purposed on the beach "

Garza Blanca was absolutely beautiful and amazing! I was just speechless with the 10 star customer service, the views, the rooms, the hotel , the food and our amazing 10/10 butler Victor! He was very caring, respectful, responsible and definitely someone I trust and can count on for the future visits. He helped me set up balloons, rose pedals and got champagne for us to celebrate for my sisters engagement party. He definitely helped us out in so many ways where I am just grateful that I had the pleasure to spend time with him , he definitely made us laugh and made us feel at home and was really on top of it. Shout out to the restaurant manager Manuel and their boss Victor Sanchez, what amazing service , commitment and respectful people they were to not only me but my family. I wish I could give a 10 star for Garza Blanca because they deserve it. All their employees were so nice respectful and friendly. We have decided to go back in December with a bigger family group to the same hotel! We love you guys and cant wait to see you guys in 4 months! Thank you, Patrick Andriasian

"Best Place Ever"

Where do I start!!? From the time we entered the gate at Hotel Mousai we felt welcomed immediately. We were given welcome drinks along with a wet towel. The decor along screams luxury. We stayed in the best room available at the property which was the ultra corner suite on level 11. Our butler was CARLOS and he was amazing. When we first checked in, he took down my phone number so that he could easily reach me and he reached out everyday to see if we needed anything. We purchased a dinner on the beach for $195 that included a bottle ofMoet. We witnessed the sunset as a photographer took pictures of us that we later paid $95 for on a USB. My favorite place to relax was both the rooftop pool and our hot tub on the balcony. My favorite drink was the sexy lady on the rooftop. I was really nervous about food because when I stayed in Cancun it was hit and miss. Needless to say the food was even amazing. I loved the beef nachos, popcorn chicken, filet mignon, the quesadillas EVERYTHING!!! They invited us back for New Years because they have a firework display around the island. We will be back & special thanks to Carlos and everyone else who made us feel welcomed our whole stay.

"Amazing First Trip to Mexico"

Deciding on where to stay for our first family trip to Mexico was challenging but in the end, we made the right choice in Garza Blanca. The facilities were impressive to say the least, especially the amazing Panorama Suites. Our 2 bedroom suite was luxurious and spacious, with breathtaking views, high end appliances and decor, and comfortable linens. Loved having the full kitchen as well. Just sitting on the wraparound terrace was an elevated experience. The pools, beach and restaurants were all top notch. We never had trouble getting a seat by the pool or on the beach and dinner reservations were available at our desired times. Food was delicious, a cut above what I would expect from a resort. Would recommend the all inclusive package for the full pampered experience. But what made this truly a wonderful family vacation was the service. From the pool wait staff keeping our drinks constantly filled, to the restaurant wait staff anticipating our needs (dont miss the Mexican coffee presentation at Blanca Blue), to the friendly shuttle driver, to the excellent room service team, every staff member was committed to ensuring we had an amazing vacation. We do want to highlight our housekeeper, Mariana Lima Moran who went above and beyond. She immediately determined our needs (extra bottled water and extra towels) and made sure wed were never wanting for anything. The turndown services was the icing on the cake. Cant recommend Garza Blanca highly enough and cant wait to return.

"Fantastic Resort"

Not really anything bad to say about this resort.We did the all inclusive deal which seems like the way to go. Never have to worry about dinner/drink/room service price and allows you to add more of a tip for the fantastic workers there. Everyone was super friendly.Views are fantastic and the sunset is crazy. We were worried about weather as the forecast basically always has rain on it, but we have been here 3 days and it has rained once during the day for about 2 hours. Always seem to be storm clouds in the distance but never really reaches you and the sky stays clear(in our short experience). Forecast 100% makes it seem worse than it ever was. August is the end of the rainy season as i understand it. Ernesto was a fantastic butler, we never really had much for him to do but he was awesome when we did and very friendly. Also Tito lead our hike and he was awesome. Bad with names but every worker we interacted with was great.

"Amazing Stay at a truly 5* Hotel"

My partner and I had an amazing stay at the spectacular Mousai Hotel. This was my 3rd visit and it did not disappoint, yet again. I work in the hotel industry and this hotel, its setting, the staff, the butler service etc (shout out to Carlos was so attentive) are truly leaders in the hotel landscape, not just in Mexico but in the whole of the Caribbean.Many hotels classify themselves as 5*, but they are not, however this hotel is a 5* luxury boutique hotel with a view that is unparalleled and with incredibly friendly staff to match.I will definitely be going back. For anyone thinking about this hotel as a mini getaway or a vacation, dont think twice, just book it. You will not be disappointed!!!!I could have attached many photos, but all the photos online are true this is a case of what you see online is in reality what the hotel looks like.Cant wait to go back!!

Every single need that we had was happily met by the resort staff from the minute we arrived until the door of our departing taxi closed. The food and drinks were all made to perfection and plated with elegance. Finally, I cant say enough good things about our butler, Carlos. He made sure we got to the right stores for replacement clothes and regularly checked in to be sure we had dinner and spa reservations. Im not sure that he ever took any time off. He was always around to be sure our stay was perfect. If youre going to Puerto Vallarta and looking for an adults only hotel, you should stop looking now and make youre reservations at Hotel Mousai!

"Was apprehensive but this experience was incredible"

We had never been to Mexico and were concerned about many things but the Garza Blanca Resort in Puerto Vallarta was overly impressive, safe, clean, beautiful, fun, pampering, and with an unparalleled level of service. The on-site restaurants are gourmet level, there are ones for multiple tastes, and everything is delicious. Our poolside server Francisco made our trip, he was so attentive and continually anticipated our every need. The pool concierge Mike elevated the already high standard by being helpful with reservations, any other needs, and cheerily speaking with us every day. Our housekeeper Natividad kept our room stocked daily with supplies and water bottles, neat, clean, and the turn down service was a nice touch. She was accommodating and friendly. Our personal on site concierge Evelyn graciously reserved restaurants, spa, kayaking, hiking, and paddle boards, all activities for no extra charge. We got the all inclusive plan and recommend it, it was a tremendous value considering the quality and variety of all the food a d drink.

"Stunning resort w/attentive staff"

This was our second trip to Garza Blanca and we have become 50 yr owners. This resort is gorgeous and becomes more so each time we come as they are continually improving the site. The campus, rooms, amenities and every level of staff far exceeds our imagination. Any desire or question we had was easily addressed by our personal concierge, Gloria. Please come and experience this resort. Greg

"Best service. Cant wait to come back for my wedding!"

Staying at Garza Blanca was a dream. I came with my mom and sisters to show them the venue and do the finishing touches for the wedding. Everything was perfect. But what really stood out was the service. Thank you to Dante from the concierge for taking care of all of our requests. Zarely for organizing our transportation from the airport and coordinating our tasting. And Luz for being there for our final walk through. I cant wait to be back in March !

"Undoubtedly one of the better places to stay in Puerto Vallarta"

My wife and I stayed in an ultra Mousai suite on a quick 48 hour getaway. We initially had hesitations about going in August as summer is their rainy season, but in hindsight I would not worry about this at all. It is sunny and warm from sunrise to late afternoon, then you get a nice evening rain and lightning show that we enjoyed from the hot tub on our patio. Also, the resort is less crowded and you won't have to fight for reservations or beach/pool chairs. Getting to Mousai is easy from the airport - you can call an Uber (have to walk across the pedestrian bridge for pickup) or get a taxi (have your local currency ready for taxi). It's about 40 minutes. If you are not used to this as a traveler, you will be berated with people trying to offer you "deals" and services the moment you collect your luggage. When you are at the beach, you will be similarly pestered to buy junk. This is not a reflection on Mousai, but it is really off putting to be spending so much on a luxury vacation and still have to deal with this stuff. However what IS a reflection on Mousai is their staff at the airport who will show you their hotel badge and pull you over at the airport "to prepare your check in" where you will then waste 20 min while someone shows you hotel photos and telling you about the new tower they are building and that if you take a tour of it, they'll give you a discount at the spa and free taxi. This is actually an attempt to wrap you into their 2-3 hour pitch on timeshares. Again, you're paying enough to not have to put up with this. The moment you walk off the airplane just say "no gracias" and KEEP WALKING. Regarding the all inclusive - if you enjoy drinking a lot then this is absolutely worth it for you. We only had 1 to 3 drinks each day, but feel that we got our money's worth in food (i.e. $300 for dinner). It also really adds to the "I'm on vacation" vibe to not even be thinking about cost as you're ordering, or deciding if you want to try 1 of each dessert, or if you want room service sent up at any hour of day. We eat a lot on vacation, but if we ate like our normal selves the all inclusive may not have been worth it. That being said, would still recommend it and do it again. They say tips are included, but we still did anyways, and there is always an option when you're signing your receipt. The bigger decision for you to make is whether the ultra suite is worth it as this includes a better view (they're all great ocean views anyways), a Butler, and access to the hydrotherapy circuit in the spa. We had Carlos Ramos as our Butler with the ultra suite. Carlos was great, gives you his personal cell to reach him with any questions or concerns. He made reservations for us, arranged transportation, etc. All stuff that we could have done ourselves, or through normal hotel concierge. Butler service was nice to have, but won't make or break your trip. The hydrotherapy circuit was nice, but is essentially some time in saunas and jacuzzis - again, not crucial. Next time we would get a normal suite. As a guest at Mousai, you also have access to their sister property Garza Blanca including their restaurants and pools. This one is a family resort, but honestly felt more like a true vacation resort than Mousai itself, it is much bigger and had a more "tropical vacation" feel to it. We really enjoyed the food at Hiroshi, so much that we had dinner there both nights. The entire menu is excellent, so are the cocktails. Thank you to Adrian and Irving for awesome service! The breakfast at the Terrace was great, and the breakfast buffet at Blanca Blue was also excellent. Make reservations! We were surprised at how small the restaurants were given the size of the hotel - we saw others waiting over an hour for a dinner table without a reservation. The only activity we did was the kayak trip to Los Arcos. Our guide Javier was fantastic! He made it fun and provides cool info about the area. We saw a sea turtle, and snorkeled among schools of fish. Highly recommended but be aware it is about a 45 min kayak ride each way, plus about 30 min of snorkeling. What really makes this place special is the staff. They are all so warm, welcoming and kind. They really are happy to have you as a guest. Thank you to the awesome crew who filled our room with balloons during turndown service as a surprise for my wife's birthday. We would be happy to come back, or even bring the kids and stay at Garza Blanca as well.

"Birthday Celebration"

Had a great time at Hotel Mousai . Carlos who was our Butler, is very knowledgeable and provided professional & excellent service. He answered every question, even when he was off duty. Cecilia Bustos the General Manager, is the epitome of excellence! She is kind, friendly and went above and behind to make sure our stay was everything we expected. Elisha, took special care of us and also stopped by to say hi on the roof top poolside. A big thank you for the delicious private dinner cooked by chief Humberto and Jose who provided world class table service, both from Hiroshi restaurant. This was truly a dining experience! Elite service, breath taking views equalled an unforgettable Birthday celebration! Can't wait to return when the South Towers are complete.

"BEST VACATION PLACE!!!"

This was probably my tenth trip to Garza, and I love it more every time!!! The setting is beautiful, the service is amazing, food and drinks are always great.The staff is what really makes this place great. The waiters at the upper and lower pools work so hard and are so sweet. We had a few different waiters and they were all amazing!!!The restaurant staff were the same, amazing service! A shout out to Cristian and Jose from Hiroshi they were so friendly and worked so hard.Only down side to Garza this trip, too many reserved spots around the pools for owners, who half the time never showed up so the seats were wasted. Also, I could do without the hard sell on ownership.I can not wait till my next trip in May. Garza here I come!!!

Jose and Cristian were the Batman and Robin team of servers that treated us like royalty and assisted in serving Chef Ernestos creations, that too, were fit for kings and queens. Thank you so much and look forward to coming back again.

"Best hotel in Puerto Vallarta!!"

From the second we got there to the second we left they took care of us. Even though our flight got cancelled the day we checked out, they accommodated us any way they could. We stayed at the rooftop most of the time because it was a dream. Mateo, Alan, and Arturo were perfect. I have never been to a place where I felt so welcomed and cared for. They knew exactly what we needed when we needed it. Highly recommend the all inclusive package. Next time Ill make sure to stay a lot longer.

"Frida"

Just within the past 4 months my boyfriend and I have staying at Mousai two times. Hes stayed at the hotel many times over the past two years and always speaks very highly of the hotel and its staff. Before we even arrived together in April told me about a few staff members that he became familiar with and really enjoyed during his last trip, one of those people was a girl named Frida. When I met Frida for the first time on the rooftop at Mousai she was so excited and happy to see that my boyfriend had returned to visit and to meet me. Im sure Frida sees hundreds of guests each week, if not everyday and the fact that she remembered my boyfriend and his name was amazing to me. On top of being extremely personable and welcoming Frida has a special energy about her that makes you feel at ease. She is extremely attentive and always makes sure we are happy and taken care of, even if we were merely just passing by in the hallway. We felt special right from the get-go and I immediately understood why my boyfriend loves this place so much. We had a wonderful time in April and decided to come back as soon as possible in July. We had kept in touch with Frida since our last trip so she knew about our arrival ahead of time. Again she greeted us at the rooftop with the biggest smile and even had little gifts for both of us upon our arrival! Talk about a special soul, she really set the tone for the rest our amazing week in Puerto Vallarta. All in all my boyfriend and I love staying at Hotel Mousai. Thanks to the staff and our girl Frida we will be coming back as much and as often as possible

Couldnt be more satisfied with our stay. We couldnt help but spend a lot of our time on the rooftop where we were treated with such great hospitality.

The all inclusive package was worth every last penny, and we hope to be back very soon

"Another perfect vacation at Garza Blanca!!"

We just returned home from another amazing stay at Garza Blanca! The rooms and property were beautiful and it felt very Covid safe. The food was delicious too from the rooftop to the beach. From the minute we arrived, Orlando our amazing concierge, (who greeted us with margaritas), made us feel so welcomed and wanted. He took care of all of our arrangements, gave us his number, and kept in touch with us our entire stay. He even surprised us with a birthday cake. The service on the beach was exceptional as well. Gonzalo kept the food and drink flowing and treated us like royalty all week. (He surprised us with a cake too.) We all looked for to seeing him every morning. On his day off, Panciano continued the first class treatment. Caesar and Javier, who coordinated the water activities on the beach, eagerly helped with with our snorkeling gear, paddle boards, and kayaks. They also took us on the kayak trip to Los Arcos and were excellent tour guides. An adventure not to be missed! The entire staff felt so warm and genuine. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for a beyond perfect time! We cannot wait to return!

"Best Hotel in Puerto Vallarta"

Great Hotel! Great service. Beautiful suite and views! We had jungle and ocean views. The concierge was by far the best in helping to plan our onsite activities and offsite excursions. This was the best vacation experience ever. They provide onsite COVID-19 testing which is good. The one and only compliant that we have is that at the airport, we were told by someone that claimed to work for the hotel that they would arrange travel to and from the hotel at no cost if we had breakfast the following morning and see the hotel grounds. We were asked to pay $50.00 upfront. We did receive private transportation. Because we were all inclusive, our breakfast was covered but we also paid for the sales guy's breakfast too. We had to sit through a long presentation for a timeshare from 10:00 am - 1 pm. It was such a waste of a beautiful morning. We are still waiting for the $50.00 to be returned to us. This occured on July 18, 2021. Other than the timeshare fiasco, we love Hotel Mousai.

Only one restaurant is open for lunch and eating the pool food everyday gets old.

"Losing its Sparkle"

We have visited this property 3 times now - once staying in honeymoon suite at Garza, then deciding on Mousai for our latest 2 trips. We fell in love with this property 6 years ago, because of the views but mainly the outstanding service. When we think of paradise, we think of this resort. So much so that we decided to bring friends along with us this time for a couples trip. We even considered purchasing into the residents program but this latest trip changed our mind. I think this resort has run its course for us. If youve never been here, you should definitely come. Youll love the views and the staff and luxury accommodations. But I think if you are a return visitor, you might be disappointed the experience is not what it used to be as the resort has become more well known and increased occupancy due to people traveling after Covid. When we first visited 6 years ago, the pool waiters knew you by name and quickly knew your favorite drink. Anytime we would swim, our chair towels would be replaced with dry towels. They came around to clean your sunglasses and offer you cool scented towels. The pool mixologists took time to know you and your likes (even had a drink named after me!) and cool extra thinks like watermelon Jell-O shots at the rooftop pool. You were allowed to swim in the rooftop pool at night for sunset drinks. None of that happened this trip. (Also lacked our last trip in 2019 - except towels. Towel guys Rico and Alan were awesome on that trip) Because our first trip was so amazing, we compare every other visit to it now and its just not the same. Ill highlight the good and the bad below. I dont want to discourage anyone from coming. I think youll have an amazing time especially if you dont know how good it used to be. Good:Our butler Carlos was amazing and decorated for our 5yr anniversary and was very helpful securing reservations and a beach cabana for us. Our friends had Ernesto and he helped us too when Carlos had a day off. We loved Ernesto. Request either for your butler and youll be in great hands. We stayed in ultra suite so we could do hydrotherapy every morning after breakfast. Its very relaxing and a must do! Also do the aromatherapy every night. Mousai is our fav scent!Hiroshi has been our favorite restaurant every time we visit. The service and food are amazing. Try the lychee martini! The room - its large and luxurious. The hot tub is perfect for taking in a sunset or waiting out a rain shower. Rooftop restaurant- we almost skipped this because the menu was limited but the sunset views, the ambiance at night and food was delicious. It should not be missed! And lastly the staff: Gustavo the bellman. Hes always greeted us past few trips. Such a nice soul. Angel in the terrace restaurant for breakfast - his positive attitude sets the tone for a great start to the day. Alan the towel guy on rooftop pool. Hes been so nice both of our latest trips. Karen in the spa is so nice and sweet. And of course our butlers Carlos and Ernesto. All of these people provided great service. Room for Improvement:Check in - as repeat guests I wish they would recognize that loyalty to their brand and resort. There were no extra perks or welcome back as other hotels do for return guests. Also my card was charged twice so they had to refund me. Then they didnt run it for incidentals since I was charged $3,300 twice. That created an issue when I tried to add tip and caused me to get a call at 11pm at night to come run my card for incidentals. Could it not have waited til the morn? It was a $3 tip to bartender. My husband just ran cash down to him. Blanca Blue - I dont know how this place is still open. Every trip, the service is so slow. Its a 3 hr dinner so dont go hungry. Its sad because its a great view but management over books and its not big enough for a resort this size. Its going to get even worse when the second tower is built. They need to cover the outdoor seating so it can be utilized. I wrote a terrible review on TripAdvisor if you want more info. Food is just ok. Nothing special. Least fav of the 3 restaurants on property. The hostess here is not nice. Shes also the breakfast hostess at Blanca Blu and was rude to us there as well. Beach cabanas - They advertise that Mousai guests have special area on the beach but what that really means is only if Elite members dont want them. Unfortunately its not easy to get a beach cabana and you only get leftovers and most Elite members reserve chairs or cabana for full day and never use it (or show up at 5pm to use it while it sat all day unused)Our butler was only able to get it for us one day, last min because an Elite member left. There should be cabana for Elite and cabanas for Ultra Mousai guests. Rooftop Pool service - we had to flag someone down for drinks or even ask our butler to get us a waiter. I dont think its their fault but too many people, not enough servers. I will say its better than most large resorts but we were used to impeccable service our last trips here. Also, you had to get to pool before 10:30 to get a chair by pool. Our butler couldnt reserve us chairs. If I pay more for butler service, they should allow them to reserve chairs. Otherwise they basically just book your dinner and spa reservations which you really could do yourself. The pool has never been as crowded as it is now - so many people traveling.Kayaks - our friend kayaked to Los Arcos- they didnt have single kayaks so he had to use a double which is not easy for one person to manage. Why would they not have a few single kayaks? Also he was given regular goggles and not snorkel goggles because he went with a large group and there wasnt enough. (Apparently people lose them at Los Arcos after being told a million times by guide to secure them) but a resort making this much $ can afford to buy more snorkel gear. Pizza on the beach - they literally ran out of pizza one day. I dont know how that happens at a luxury resort. Covid test - its the touch your brain test. I was expecting quick swab of the nose as they do in US now. Food - all the food was good but 3 out of 4 of us developed stomach issues the last few days of the trip. Just take meds in case or request antibiotics. We couldve called the Dr Im sure but it wasnt bad enough to ruin our trip and we didnt want to trouble anyone. Next time, well prob just see a Dr because I heard they can cure with one shot/pill. We are just weird about inconveniencing anyone or being too needy. We go to Mexico a lot and have never had issues so it was bound to happen eventually. We still recommended this resort to friends coming in October. However its time for us to find a new place. I think well try the newer Taffer resort in Cancun. And one day maybe well return again.

"#1 Resort in Puerto Vallarta with or without family."

This is our favorite resort in all of Puerto Vallarta. I've written a review before but felt compelled to write another after our trip there this month. Hands down, Garza Blanca has the best staff on the Banderas Bay. From the warm greeting at the front door with the bell staff, the attention to detail at their restaurants Blanca Blue and Bocados, even the speed of their concierge and pool crew. The quality of their business can easily found in the care of the guests and the impeccable cleanliness and sanitation of the rooms and grounds. Garza Blanca is a gem within a gem. We visit as a family with kid 15, 8, and 7. They love this place! Plenty to do for kids!I want to thank a few people (I may miss some) that really make our trip their very special each time:-The Butler Staff- Jose, Roberto, Alejandro, Felipe-Bartenders -At the pool:GiselleOswaldoJavier XoloAlex Francisco (Pancho)AlejandroGonzaloWendyMiguel-Concierge:JessicaGloriaNickyJeane-Restaurants:RuebenCeciliaLorenaDanielOmarBell Service:CarloJoelSalvadorHousekeeping:Yuya RomeroThank you all for welcoming us each time we arrive.

"ABOVE ALL EXPECTATIONS"

If there was a 10 star rating I would give it to them!! Every aspect of our stay was wonderful from the moment we checked in to our final goodbye at checkout, there was not a detail that was missed. The entire hotel was one step ahead of us on anything we needed. I would like to give a huge thank you to our Ultra Suite Manager Carlos Ramos. He truly went above and beyond for our group of 6. Even going after his working hours to the hospital to make sure our friends had a ride back after their dr appointment(ear infection on vacation no bueno). The People at the rooftop pool were great. We had our same spot every day and our towels were refreshed without askingThe food!! Where do I begin. The variety of options is awesome our last day we were still finding things on the menu we hadnt tried yet. We had a birthday and an engagement while we were there and the special things they did for us were so thoughtful I would highly recommend Hotel Mousai for your next vacation and if you choose an Ultra Suite I would request Carlos Ramos as your room butler. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK

"Great Resort for an incredible vacations"

An excellent vacations resort, the service of the employees is great, they are friendly an they always go beyond their area of responsibilities to help you enjoy vacations and feel like home. On this trip, I had a back pain and several members of the staff help me a lot to recover and enjoy this vacation despite my health condition.I want to express a big * thank you * to Javier Suarez who is very kind taking care of the security at the beach ensuring your stuff is safe while we are swimming, he also help people to feel comfortable bringing towels, helping to accommodate the umbrellas, and taking care of our health which I guess it is something outside his area of responsibility that is the reason I said employees at Garza Blanca goes always an extra mile to make you feel like home that is one of the reason I bought a membership at this great resort.I also want to thank Gloria, our concierge on this trip who was also pending of our health and our accommodations.Finally, I want to thank Miguel Lemus for helping us to have a great time on hiking and kayak activities.

"Amazing stay at Hotel Mousai!"

My boyfriend and I stayed for 8 nights in the penthouse suite. It was the most beautiful and relaxing vacation weve ever had! We were able to reserve chairs for the poolside rooftop, have dinner in our room with a chef, and enjoy the gorgeous sunrise and sunset PV had to offer. The hotel is definitely the best of the best, residing in the mountainside, 15 minutes from the city with the best views. Everyone at the hotel from the staff to the guests were extremely friendly and accommodating and we met many people who were frequent travelers of Hotel Mousai. We had Carlos as our butler who took care of everything we needed. He was attentive, flexible, and extremely responsive to all of our needs. We are so grateful to have had him as our butler and cant wait to come back soon! We also had multiple massages, facials, and hydrotherapy sessions at Spa Imagine. We enjoyed the massages so much, we had to keep coming back for more! Everyone is very professional and the masseuses did a wonderful job. It was my first time getting a facial and I loved both the Vitamin C and the Spa Imagine facial. Staff did a great job to keep us together for all of the treatments as well.We tried the terrace for breakfast, rooftop for lunch, room service almost everyday for breakfast, and went out to town most nights for dinner. We loved Le Kliff, Cafe Des Artistes, Oyster Grill La Docena, and La Capella. We are huge foodies, and their selections were amazing. Finally, we did the zip lining with Los Veranos and Rhythms of the night. We loved the zip lining tour although we had to be dropped off in front of a restaurant for the Los Veranos tour bus to pick us up. They were kind enough to drop us off at our hotel on our way back. We wouldnt recommend Rhythms of the Night due to the lack of communication and details about the actual trip there and back to the show. We left the hotel at 6pm and didnt get back until 1am which was a definite surprise for us. We dressed up for the occasion but we wish we would have worn athletic clothes instead because it was so hot and we were all sitting so close together. However, the show was fantastic! All in all, we had a wonderful time and we are so excited to come back. Hotel Mousai was amazing and I will recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing vacation!

"Wow wow wow! What an experience, and the staff made the stay amazing"

My wife and I are actually still here. But HAD TO write this while its all right up front in our mind! Hotrl Mousai is on a whole other level! Puerto Vallarta is paradise, and hotel mousai is quite a special place in the center of paradise. Amazing food, amazing service, but most importantly. The staff and people of puerto Vallarta are just the most kind heartfelt people, putting us first please dont come here as an annoying tourist demanding first class service, be a kind loving human being and allow the first class service come to you. Its amazing what a smile and genuine interest in people can do to open your own heart and make the trip so extra memorable. We got the ultra mousai corner suite with butler service (Carlos has been só amazing to get to know and have guide us on our trip). Special love to our favorite Restaraunt Hiroshi and their amazing sushi and drinks. Captain Ambrosio Diaz (spelling) and his amazing staff including the wonderful duo of waiters Franco and Jose have made each meal memorable and delicious so much so, weve eaten exclusively at this Restaraunt most nights of our 5 night trip! Thank you all my friends. Again, travelling is one thing, and this place is definately worth many repeat visits for years to come but, getting to know the people, showing them the appreciation you have for them just makes it even better.. weve made it a point to tip everyone to show our gratitude, and they have all been so grateful! We hate to leave here in 2 days (those sunsets are the best weve ever seen!) but we cannot wait to come back! As they say here. WELCOME HOME!

"5-stars on all fronts!"

The view was incredible, the food was delicious, and the staff absolutely bent over backward to make our dinner perfect. Franco and Abraham are top-notch!We sat at the bar and asked the sushi chefs for recommendations all evening- an absolute blast trying all the awesome rolls and chatting with the chefs. They were so gracious. Bon Appétit! -- Meshiagare!

"THE LEGEND OF JAVIER + CESAR"

Javier and Cesar are the most kind, hospitable, and knowledgeable people in Puerto Vallarta and Garza Blanca. They made our stay so much fun, with the best guided kayak tour. They make sure their guests are safe and always work with a big smile on their face. GIVE THESE A MEN A RAISE!!!!!! They do everything right, and I will return just to see them again. Thank you both!

"Spa was wonderful!"

We took a girls trip to Garza Blanca in PV and the spa was a great experience! Jesuuus was so helpful and joyful as he guided us around the hydrotherapy room (my favorite part) which had various types of jacuzzis, a sauna and steam room. We chose the 50 minute spa package and it was a great deal because it included an additional hour in the hydrotherapy room. All 6 of our massages were wonderful and each masseuse was so talented. The views from the spa are breathtaking from the top floor of one high rise hotel on property - it doesnt get better than that! The customer service at the spa was awesome and helped us have a lovely and relaxing morning. We will definitely be returning to the spa!

"Indulge and Relax"

This was my second stay at Hotel Mousai and you certainly do not disappoint. This time we stayed in an ultra corner suite. The views were stunning and we loved enjoying the mornings and late afternoons on the wrap around deck. I booked all of my own reservations; dinner, gym, spa, kayaking, and hydro spa with Jennifer who was fantastic upon arrival. Since the hydro spa comes with the room, I took advantage of it daily after a trip to the gym. Josue was amazing, professional, and attentive. I heard he is in training and if he becomes a butler, I would most definitely want him to work on my floor! I also had a great 80 minute massage by Arecely. Hiroshi was fabulous as usual. I normally dont get to the entrée but this time we tried both the steak and the akamiso fish. Both were incredible. Irving, Miguel, and Abraham were top notch as usual. The staff there from the hostess, mixologists to the sushi chefs are more than accommodating and friendly. They all seem to sincerely enjoy what they do. We ate at Bocados a couple of times. Martin provides service that goes above and beyond. I remembered him from the last time I visited and he certainly did not disappoint. If you can request his section, it will be well worth it! The Rooftop Pool is where we spent the majority of our time. Alan, Caesar, and Mateo (who was also great from the last time I visited) will undoubtedly treat you like royalty and allow you to enjoy every minute of your vacay. Also, if you have the time to kayak and snorkel with Caesar, you should. He made safety a priority but was fun, entertaining, and he was very knowledgeable. I wanted to save the best for last. The guys at the Terrace were unbelievable. We were searching for good Mexican food and they were always able to deliver. ALL of the meals we had at the Terrace were delicious and made to order if we so desired. The service from all of the servers was bar none but my favorite and one to request to be seated in his section was Angel. His smile, his recommendations, his service and the mimosas were memorable. We originally had planned to eat breakfast on our deck but came every day to see him. He is a keeper! I only have a few pieces of advice to improve on. First, its Mexico so Blanca should be serving amazing Mexican food with homemade tortillas and good traditional food. Mexican food doesnt need to be complex to be great. Second, Im not sure about anyone else, but we really didnt use our butler service a lot. Ive been to places where we have but not this time. Lastly, I booked our last nights meal at the Rooftop verified by three different people only to arrive and be told there was a wedding and dinner would not be served. Not sure what happened and fortunately we were able to get somewhere else but we were highly disappointed. All in all it was a great trip and we are looking forward to the next visit when the new tower will be completed.Sent from Mail for Windows 10

"LOVED IT"

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at Hotel Mousai. Of course, the views were spectacular, but the staff was exceptional! We had the best experience with concierge Jennifer, Abraham and Aley Miguel at Hiroshi, yesenia as a bartender, Arturo and Alan at the pool, and Eduardo as a butler! Honestly, we miss them already and truly have loved getting to know them. Never have we felt more at home, loved, and welcomed at a resort! Will definitely be back!

"Los Arcos Kayak & Snorkel Tour"

We took the Los Arcos Kayak and snorkel tour with Javier. We had a great time and he was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and friendly. I have a family of five with kids 18, 15 and 12. Javier made sure they were okay during the kayaking portion and gave them a nice snorkeling experience. He pointed out different fish and took us through the cave. The staff did a good job confirming the reservation the day before and morning of the tour (due to potential rain). I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you Javier for a wonderful experience!!!

"Carlos Ramos deserves 5+ stars"

How do you thank someone for making you feel instantly at home, appreciated, (dare I say loved?) and part of a new family? Carlos did that for us. We spent our honeymoon and my 50th birthday at the impeccable Hotel Mousai 11th floor Corner Suite and could not have had a better experience. Carlos was central to making that happen. Aside from the breathtaking views, lush grounds and exquisite amenities our interactions with Carlos took our experience in paradise over the top. He treated us with such care and exceeded our every expectation, taking care of all requests down to the smallest little detail, being extremely organized and attentive - providing just the right amount of communication during our stay. The balloon decorations in the suite for my birthday brought tears to my eyes and I felt so special. THANK YOU CARLOS for bringing us into the Hotel Mousai family we plan on coming back again and again!

"Opinion"

I stayed at the Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta with my family in early May 2021. There were two adults and two toddlers. The overall experience was excellent. All staff members from the front desk, to the restaurant servers to custodians all displayed perfect customer service skills and were especially kind to my young children. Other companies and hotels would do well to study how Garza Blanca and its hotels treat customers. My children especially loved the breakfast. The rooms were adorably decorated and the kids loved it. My wife and I really liked the body washes, shampoos and lotions provided in the rooms. The hotel is not too crowded and very clean. The pool is small but very nice. I would highly recommend to any families with young children.

"Garza Blanca is Paradise"

This is an amazing all-inclusive resort. Yes, the all-inclusive is worth every cent, even if you have kids. This is our second visit to Garza Blanca, the first with kids. The two bedroom oceanfront suite (building 2) is perfect for our family of five. It has a washer and dryer that allows reduction in packing (I brought my own laundry pods and dryer sheets). It also has a Nespresso machine and a regular coffee maker. All the restaurants serve delicious food. We liked Blanca Blue for breakfast, it has a bigger buffet than Boca Dos. Hiroshi is included in the all-inclusive. The hotel is currently at high capacity but we still had a great time and got a pool or ocean chair whenever we needed one. Dont be that family that drops towels on 10 lounge chairs and then leaves. It is likely that your chairs wont be there when you return. There is construction happening right now but I didnt hear any noise. The ocean drowns out all other noise that might occur. We utilized the free WiFi and found it more than sufficient. It is the rainy season and there was threat of tropical storms and/or hurricane while we are here. Despite the forecast, We still had many sunny days and very little rain. Mostly rained at night. Finally, we went on the advanced hike with Oswaldo. It is advanced because you have to use ropes for assistance in certain spots. There is about a half an hour of steady uphill walking. My 11 year old kids had no issue. Dont skip this. It was awesome. We swam in a waterfall.

My husband and I stayed at Garza Blanca for our anniversary and we were not disappointed. The service was amazing from everytone we met. Starting with the the housekeeping, Sylvia made sure are room was perfect every time we left it! Sylvia went above and beyond to make sure our room was emaculant. We would also like to talk about the concierge service Jeane M. made sure we had reservations at any restaurants we wanted, she also made sure to help my husband with planning stuff for our anniversary. I can not thank her enough for all she did making this trip very special.We ate at all of the that were on property our favorite being Boca Dos Stk. Our server Daniel was amazing going over and beyond our expectations.

"We had a very nice stay at Garza Blanca"

Positives: The view was awesome, the food excellent, the staff very friendly and always said hello. The grounds were well maintained and the shuttle, to take you from the bottom of the resort to most of the rooms, ran constantly. We never had to wait more than a minute or two. We greatly enjoyed our time here.Negatives: The concierge's told us three things, that any trained staff should have known, that were wrong. But lets mark this up to the resort just getting back up to speed. Not a big deal. The second item is more of a question/possible concern. We took the walking tour through the refuge with the resort's guide and a few other guests and it was very nice. But, we had two armed police officers with us. The guide said they were there to help anyone down the trail that didn't want to/couldn't continue. We never felt unsafe at any time during our stay as the resort is well guarded, but you don't need two police officers to help guests down a trail. You do need them if something happened in the past or something almost happened. But again, the resort itself is very safe and secure.

Weve been to Garza Blanca several times but this stay may have been the best. We were celebrating my birthday and they upgraded us to the honeymoon suite - panoramic views of the ocean with a hot tub on the balcony. Truly amazing. Every need was taken care of by our concierge Orlando. Restaurant reservations, the spa, you name it. Orlando put on a master class in client service and was the highlight of our trip. Well keep coming back and recommend Garza Blanca to our friends because of employees like Orlando. Thank you!

"My trip to Mousai - Once in a lifetime, until I go back!"

I have never stayed at a luxury property before, but coming out of Covid, I wanted to treat myself to something spectacular and boy did I ever. From start to finish, my stay at Mousai was magical - and great value for money. The food at all the restaurants was top notch, the amenities in the rooms were unbelievable - private plunge pool on your balcony? Gigantic hammock for napping? Yes please! The property has three pools, including the unforgettable rooftop pools and cabanas. All were well maintained, fun to be at, and oh so luxurious. The real exception on this property was the staff. First of all, my butler Carlos was helpful, attentive, and personable. The rest of the staff was equally kind, accommodating and helpful - they all knew and called me by my name within a day and everything I needed something or help with something, someone was right there. I felt as tho I was staying with friends. I cannot recommend Mousai enough. I will be coming back!

"If heaven had a hotel..."

My wife and I celebrated our 15 year anniversary at Hotel Mousai the second week of June (7-12). Earlier this year we were trying to decide what to do to celebrate and we bounced ideas off of each other for a month or two. We considered visiting a few different cities in the US that we wanted to see, we thought about a cruise and even considered Canada but the last two were quickly negated due to the pandemic.That all being said, we are extremely happy and overjoyed that we decided on your resort. We had grand plans to do all sorts of things while in Puerto Vallarta. We wanted to scuba dive, jet ski, take a fishing charter and visit town. We went back and forth on what to do but decided ultimately to just get there and decided after arrival. I can tell you that it was the best decision that we made. We had done extensive research on the resort via TripAdvisor, Google and YouTube and we felt like we had a good grasp of what to expect upon arrival but.We went with the Ultra Corner Suite (Room 6116) and were assigned Ernesto as our butler. He was in constant communication with us via email as we arrived and fought through customs and the long lines. He even stayed late since we were running behind. He met us the second we got off of our shuttle with a nice cool towel and took us to our room. We thought we knew what we were walking into but were absolutely shocked when we saw it in person. There might have been a small tear shed as we were blown away by the amenities and the level of service that was provided. We thanked him for staying late and promptly got to unpacking and getting ready for dinner at Hiroshi that he was able to arrange for us on short notice.We were met by Ambrocio there and he was extremely accommodating and made great recommendations. We are huge sushi fans but he opened us up to a few pieces of sashimi that we had never had. Emberto was the bartender when we first arrived and made me the best Negroni in my long tenure of enjoying gin. We left for our room with full stomachs and plans to come back at some point due to the level of service and quality of food.We ended up sitting in the plunge pool all night enjoying cocktails and listening to music while staring out into the ocean. When I realized that the shuttle runs til 1am, I surprised my wife by encouraging her to come down to the beach with me. She had never stood in the ocean before so we ventured down and stood out in the dark with our ankles in the water and talked about our 15 years of marriage. We listened to the water splash on the rocks and just generally took in the moment.We still hadnt decided on what to do the next day and it was becoming quickly apparent that we didnt want to leave the actual grounds of the resort. We came down the next morning with intentions of visiting the beach again and were promptly greeted by Ernesto and he asked what our plans were. He quickly organized a private cabana for us and made us dinner reservations at the steak house. I think he knew that we didnt have any plans set in stone so he went out of his way the whole time to make suggestions and keep in touch with me via text to make sure that we were having a great time.We visited the rooftop pool/bar for lunch two days in a row and were taken care of by Mateo who gave off a great vibe. He got us hooked on Palomas and we stuck with those for two solid days. At one point, when the room staff was refilling our mini bar, I requested Fresca to be included and the lady (didnt get her name) figured out I was making Palomas and she left and came back with salted rim glasses and fresh lime juice without me asking. Again, the level of care and service was out of this world. It seems like everywhere we went on the grounds, Ernesto was around and checking on us. He even introduced us to Lillith (his trainee) and she would see us and make sure everything was going well. I can tell that Lillith is being trained right and we hope to see her again.We made reservations on our anniversary night for Hiroshi and Ambrocio, Christian and Franco put together an amazing meal for us because we said surprise us. They organized an off menu feast that kept coming. Emberto even made me a special Negroni without me asking because he remembered I liked them.We kept saying the whole time that we were going to make it into town to shop but were never able to leave until our last day because we didnt want to get away from the little slice of heaven that the resort and the staff were providing. My wife and I were joking for the first few days that we arent used to being treated that way and were embarrassed that we were being awkward and not sure how to say thank you enough.Ill leave you with this. Weve been back a week and havent stopped talking about the trip with friends, family and coworkers. I have at least three families who saw JUST the video walkthrough of the room and are in early talks with their spouses to spend their anniversary with you all. My wife turns 40 next July and we are already planning our stay there with our family.With my hand over my heart I thank Hotel Mousai and Ernesto for making this the best vacation of our lives. We can't wait to go back!

Recently stayed for a week after day 1 the staff knew my name and treated me and my friends all like VIPS though we were not! The staff no matter who they were or what their role is in the hotel; they were there to ensure all residents had a relaxing time. A couple of employees i would like to call out specifically: Butler Carlos knew where me and the ladies were and personally checked to see that we had a great time and if we needed anything. Rooftop Enrique was super attentive, friendly, & even taught me and the ladies some Spanish. Some other great people to mention that provided extra attention: Jenni & Citalli the hostesses with the Mostests!

I wish I wouldve found out about this hotel before because going forward it will be the only hotel I stay in when in Puerto Vallarta. The accommodations are A+++ the staff is TOP NOTCH. If you book the Ultra Suites you get a personal butler and if you are fortunate enough to get Carlos Ramos then consider yourself lucky. Im counting the days until I go back.

"Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta"

We had an excellent time at the resort thanks to the extremely attentive and courteous staff. Bonnie at the concierge desk went above and beyond to help give us special moments and make us feel like we were family. She's a treasure!I can say without a doubt that we'll be returning and highly recommending Garza Blanca to our friends!

"After a rocky start this place won us over"

We got off to quite a rocky start which left a bad taste in our mouths the first four days. I am not one to let issues with the hotel ruin my vacation so tried to push everything to the side and enjoy our time at this beautiful place. But to be honest it was the first vacation we both felt we were not going to be sad when it was time to check out and go home. But wow they really turned it around.As soon as management received word that we were unhappy everything changed. The General Manager personally spoke with us (she is such a nice person) and arranged for Carlos to be our butler. And all I can say is WOW - Carlos really went above and beyond, going so far as to text us hours after we checked out to ensure we had returned home safely. Such a kind man, and he really knows how to make someone feel special. If you have the luck to encounter Carlos youre in for a treat. My main regret is not saying something sooner, as it became quite apparent that THEY CARE. My biggest tip would be to voice your concerns with management if you have an issue, they will do everything in their power to ensure you leave happy. We did.That being said, this hotel is absolutely stunning - youd be hard pressed to find a better view from your room or the pools. Rooms are large and well appointed, and the temp of your jetted plunge pool on the balcony can be adjusted to your liking which was a huge plus for us. Restaurants were all excellent (both food and service) and a huge kudos to Chef Karlos in the rooftop restaurant at dinner, he is so talented and a true artist. Room service has a large selection and should not be missed - they set up a table in your room with special touches like a vase with flower, etc.The rooftop pool is gorgeous and posh - spend a day there and order lunch from your cabana. You also have access to the Garza Blanca resort which starts just below Mousai. Their facilities are absolutely worth visiting (theres a trolley that runs every 15 minutes).I would never have guessed this based on how our stay began, but we plan to return. Thanks to everyone!

"Great stay in a 3 bedroom panoramic suite"

Outstanding property with great food and friendly staff. The restaurants are well run and have a great variety of food. We had the 2 bedroom family suite which was fantastic (4 beds and 3 bathrooms). Great sunset views every night, and the resort is family friendly.

"Water Sports -Kayak Trip"

I participated in the water sports - kayak and snorkeling Los Arcos National Marine Part It was a wonderful experience and Cesar did an excellent job of managing the wide range of abilities of the group. He did recognize that improvements could be made in the sign up process and we discussed these with his management who gave me this card and asked that I put my comments here.So in an effort to repay Cesar for the wonderful experience I am working to complete that request.As with most things communication and management of expectations is key.Summary of our discussion Improve the communication at the "front desk" as to what is involved in the trip, what physical conditions are needed, what to expect with respect to a time break down - 50 min kayak out - 20 min of kayaking around and through the rocks of the national park -20 min of snorkeling and then 50 min kayaking back. And the possibilities o f seeing sea turtles as you paddle along. What to bring along on the trip, what options are there for leaving things at the "office" Improve the reservation process - Have a "number system" with the front desk actually signing off on the waiver that is required including the room number so Cesar can do his reminder calls and the name of the employee that took the reservation. With a reservation card(reminder) being given to the participant this could also include information about what to bring and when to arrive and who to call if you wanted to change to a different day.Also letting all know that the kayaks and snorkels are available after 11:00am so you can practice ahead of time as well as enjoy the snorkeling opportunities that exist in the rocks at the resort beach.I would recommend that everyone look into taking this trip with Caser.Maybe do it multiple times during your stay - the food here is wonderful and you have to find a way to work some of it off.

"GO HERE IMMEDIATELY"

I couldnt possibly say enough great things about this place. I honestly wouldnt even know where to start. But DEFINITELY get a corner suite and DEFINITELY get the all inclusive. 1000% get the banana pancakes at the steakhouse and the tuna tostada at Hiroshi - the rooftop is to die die and their shrimp jicama tacos are so refreshing. The surf n turf burger for room service will not disappoint.

This was our first trip to Puerto Vallarta. It was a dream come true. The sound of the waves, the beachfront view, romantic sunsets. We enjoyed the luxury and spacious one bedroom apartment with balcony.. The employees treat you as a celebrity, they greet you with their hand touching their hearts. They were wonderful but we would like to send an special thanks to Esmeralda Villa, Eduardo Herrera, Horacio Aleman, Ana López, Nery y Francisco. We became loyal members and we will get back next year.

"Hotel Mousai was everything I wanted and more!"

I just spent the past five days in the Ultra Corner Suite at Hotel Mousai. I have a month off before starting a new job and booked this trip to completely re-charge and relax. It was far better than expected and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a legitimate all inclusive in Mexico.First off, the service was the best part. Carlos absolutely made the stay for me, anticipated my needs, and ensured I was taken care of throughout the entire trip. Speaking of good service...Miguel at Hiroshi was the best waiter I have ever experienced. I told him to choose my courses and he delivered my favorite meal of the trip by far. Gio was my favorite room service waiter and always greeted me with such positivity and light.I am very active, so it was important to me to have access to a legitimate gym facility. Hotel Mousai delivers this and an incredible view at that. I also tried the hydrotherapy ritual on my first day and was there every day after. So relaxing and just what I needed to unwind.Food is amazing. As I mentioned, Hiroshi was my favorite. I also tried the rooftop dinner and Blanca Blue. Very good as well.Hotel Mousai has created a super fan in me and I will be back for years to come. Already contemplating bringing my partner back in the fall or winter. Thank you Hotel Mousai for being just what the doctor ordered. I miss it and everyone already!

"Perfect"

Ive never written a review anywhere I had to do this because we were that impressed. I didnt get sick, all the food and drinks was excellent, views everywhere are amazing, the roof top is the very best as pictures show but even with all that its the service that stands out, best service Ive ever had, should be 6 stars, our butler Ernesto was great, Angel was great, every staff member was extremely cool and gracious, but the concierge Alex was the best. This guy wouldnt stop going the extra mile; it was ridiculous how awesome and helpful he was he was phenomenal felt like we were best friends the entire stay well be back the service is 10 times better than any place weve ever stayed only recommendation is to change the music at roof top bar, it sucked. With that setting, it should be a Miami chill poolside station, the music selection was only negative, change the DJ and that place is relentless

"Garza Blanca Best experience"

Not sure where to start. This resort is AMAZING! You are welcomed and greeted as family. The staff makes sure you are well taken care of. The resorts amenities are excellent. Our experience here exceeded our expectations. If you have not been to the south part of Vallarta you are missing out on beautiful white sand beach, turquoise blue water, amazing views. Our room service lady Andrea went out if her way to clean and leave cute little details that made a difference, the pool staff and restaurant staff amazing, the lobby staff welcoming and attentive , you have kayaks, paddle boards; Cesar the Kayak instructor was a great kayak guide and very knowledgeable. I was so satisfied that I have now became a member, I appreciate Horacios outstanding service for helping us with our membership process . This is my destination from now on.

"Can't wait to go back!"

Puerto Vallarta is one of our favorite places to visit and go at least once a year. This year we went end of April to May for 7 nights. We usually stay a little closer to the romantic zone but we decided to try Hotel Mousai and WOW. Everything about this hotel is amazing. We were very luck to have a fabulous Butler name Carlos who went above and beyond to make sure we had the most fabulous trip possible and he did just that. IF you have a chance to go to Mousai- GO and if you get a chance to request Carlos as your butler - DO IT. You will not regret it. We cant wait to return!!

Amazing hotel! Luxurious and affordable. Food is very good. Everything is well designed and clean. Staff are fantastic and every person we encountered did their job well and never once did we encounter a bad attitude. Some great encounters: Jeanie at Concierge is absolutely lovely, kind, helpful. Oswaldo - a great partner for a game of squash and just a super young man. Abraham (Hiroshi) and Alberto (Rooftop) are true professionals. Jaqueline at concierge is also very lively and helpful. The spa, according to my wife, is the best she has ever been to. The gym is the best equipped Ive ever seen. Would not hesitate to return to this property and will definitely stay at other Garza hotels around Mexico.

"Dream vacation at a top of the line destination. Hotel Mousai we miss you!"

This was our first trip to Hotel Mousai and it won't be the last. My wife and I absolutely love the place and the impeccable service. Adults-only and all-inclusive is the way to go. This was the first vacation without our kids in 17 years of marriage. We are so thankful we found Hotel Mousai and all it has to offer from the roof-top pool, the many outstanding dining options, and the wonderful spa & hydrotherapy. Hydrotherapy.. WOW! I should have indulged more than once during our 5 night stay. Next time. The corner Ultra Mousai Suite will be our go to suite the next booking. What a view! While the hammock was my favorite nap-time location and the 9th floor patio was the perfect location for room service breakfast. Everyday! Love that room service breakfast. Service.... This hotel is well staffed with employees focused on service. Pool side and in all the restaurants. If you have the Ultra Suite the butler service is a treat. Having someone focused on making your stay at Mousai their priority is the icing on the cake. We never had to ask for reservations because our personal butler was one step ahead of us. Our butler was Ernesto Ornelas. Ernesto is a super star. Handsome, friendly, and so good at his job. He provided us his cell phone number so if we had any questions he would answer them. Even when he was off property. He went our of his way to make sure all of our needs were met and our transportation arrived as planned. Request Ernest Ornelas for your stay. We will always.

"Beautiful Hotel"

The hotel overall was beautiful. There were great views of the jungle and the ocean. Typically Im not a resort person, but went for a wedding. Its 15 mins from Zona Romantica via car. If you stay here just keep that in mind if you want to go into the town and try good Mexican food and do some souvenir shopping. The bell boy Gustavo went above and beyond with my boyfriend and I while we stayed there. He was super nice! I would recommend this place if you love the resort life.

"Great hotel!! We'll be back!"

We stayed at Garza Blanca for 5 nights in the Honeymoon suite. The room itself, the view of the ocean, the services, and (especially) the food made our experience unforgettable.Room: Very spacious, just enough furniture, comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. (WARNING: if you leave the door patio open along with AC running, the marble floors become very slippery. Physics, there is nothing you can do to avoid it... except closing the doors, or turning the AC off)Balcony: Very spacious in a honeymoon suit with our own jacuzzi tub, which we used almost every evening. The hammock is large enough to fit tow, we checked. We moved the table to a different location on the balcony to have shade for our daily breakfast routine.Beach: Enough lounge chairs, service is quick and accurate, mostly sand, but there is a strip of rocky bottom when entering the water, but only for a couple of steps.Pool: Have no idea, didn't use it. Why would you go into it, if there is a beautiful ocean right there??!FOOD: One of the best food experiences we had in All-Inclusive. No buffets, so all food was made to order. We booked an all-inclusive option and were very happy we did, else our food bill would double our trip expenses. Everything is just so tasty and so beautiful that you can't help yourself but indulge... Other: We used their tennis courts every day and only on the last day learned that there is a reservation process when we got asked to leave by a lady, who apparently made a reservation. Would've been nice to know this from our concierge. There was live jazz music in all the restaurants as a background. Not overwhelming, but creating a great atmosphere. Room service was on time. Like ON-TIME. We ordered breakfast for 9am, and we had a knock on the door at 9:00am sharp!!! Really appreciate the punctuality. Pelicans... There are a lot of them!!! We didn't get tired of watching their hunting games with gulls all day, every day we were there... We will DEFINITELY be coming back to this hotel in the future and will bring friends!!

"Top Notch"

This was one of our most favorite vacations ever. Def go with the ultra corner suite with the all inclusive package. The service was incredible. Thank you to Carlos Ramos(our Butler), Eliza (our Concierge), the lovely staff at the Spa, Caesar (poolside service) and Angel at the Terrace. Every member of the team there on property were top notch. I posted photos and videos of our stay there and 25 people messaged me separately to ask where we were because of how amazing it looked. The room is to die for with the views and comfort. I loved having the iPad that was available for 24/7 room service and controlling the lights and music. We loved having room service breakfast on the balcony each morning. Would take a nice dip in the hot tub on the balcony and head to the spa for the hydrotherapy circuit that was included with the ultra rooms. It felt so relaxing. All the food was AMAZING and not your average all inclusive food. The pool vibes and views were incredible and if you wanted to go to the beach there were sets ups and service there too. The trolley took us around everywhere we needed on property and we never left as there was everything we could ever want there. We cannot say enough good things about our stay here! And certainly cannot wait to come back. It seemed most people that were there had heard about it through word of mouth which speaks volumes to how incredible the property, team and service are. Thank you all so so much for providing us with a dream like stay there!

He went above and beyond to make sure that our trip was great. All the staff is very kind and helpful. There are so many wonderful people we came across during our stay at Mousai. The food at Hiroshi was also amazing. Our waiters--Cristian and Jose--were great. We will definitely be back.

"Beautiful Romantic Getaway"

Hotel Mousai is located inside the Garza Blanca resort in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. There are five hotels within Garza Blanca, Mousai is the best. As a guest at Mousai, you will have access to the entire resort: all restaurants, pools and facilities. Only Mousai guests have access to Mousai. We stayed in the Ultra Mousai Suite.I will start with the views. Mousai is located on Banderas Bay nestled between the mountains and the coastline. The views from your balcony, the rooftop and any other part of the hotel are absolutely stunning. You are looking down on the other four hotels, the beach and all of Banderas Bay. We saw the sun set five separate times. Views from the restaurants are beautiful as well, either the coastline or the mountains/jungle. The food was five stars. Room service is available 24 hours/day. We ordered room service and had it delivered to the balcony where my wife and I sat side by side and ate breakfast, lunch and dinner looking out over the Pacific Ocean. We also ate at the Boca Dos Steakhouse, Rooftop, Terrace, and Hiroshi. Seafood, fresh fruit, sushi, desserts, and cocktails, everything was amazing. The entire resort is immaculate. Everything everywhere was always clean. Our room was clean, public bathrooms were clean, the pool area was clean, the elevator, every hallway. The staff were constantly maintaining and cleaning the resort.The room had a large balcony with jacuzzi and hammock. I used the hammock more than the jacuzzi. Both bathroom and bedroom have views overlooking the ocean. My wife and I are bed snobs, the bed was perfectly comfortable. Guests can order from four different types of pillows from housekeeping. The toilet has a heated seat and bidet. You never knew you needed a heated seat or bidet, but you do! Youre given an iPad to control lighting and the blinds/sheers in the room. You will also use the iPad to order room service. We participated in the ocean kayak tour to Los Arcos. Its hard work but worth the effort. Los Arcos is beautiful and the tour guide, Cesar, ensures you see wildlife on your trip. The snorkeling at Los Arcos is better than average, lots of fish near the rocks. We also did hydrotherapy twice. The spa is beautiful with two story floor to ceiling windows overlooking the ocean. Finally, the staff were very courteous and professional. They would answer the phone, greeting me by name. We exchanged cell numbers with our personal butler, Ernesto Ornelas. I would text him asking him to come to the room, he would show up within minutes. He checked in on us multiple times per day. You need dinner reservations to eat at the restaurants, the butler makes these reservations. Every employee would stop working and formally greet us as we walked by. On the third day, some of the staff started to greet us by name!A few things to note. Concierge will offer you a free gift and VIP card if you participate in a timeshare sales pitch. Garza Blanca is beautiful, but if youre not interested in a timeshare, simply decline and they wont bother you about it. Book your transportation from the airport through the hotel. There were dozens of people offering a taxi to Garza Blanca (and other resorts) but they are actually trying to sell you timeshares. Book through the resort and walk past all the time share hustlers. Bring cash and know the currency conversion at your time of visit. We purchased all-inclusive package. I dont know who comes out ahead, the guest or the hotel, but its well worth it. We enjoyed multiple cocktails, dishes and desserts, never having to worry about the bill. Gratuity is included in the all-inclusive package, but you can tip more if you like. This will be added to your bill. I highly recommend Hotel Mousai for a romantic getaway; we plan to return for another visit.

"We will be back!"

In the midst of this crazy world dealing with Covid, taking a vacation to Garza Blanca was restoring of our souls. The resort was a home away from home, only in paradise. The staff was beyond amazing and accommodating. With the 1000's of guests coming through daily, the fantastic bartenders, Ruben and Ulises, remembered our drinks of choice and made us feel like our party of friends were the only ones staying at the resort. We all hated leaving and saying goodbye to these new friends the best bartendersby far at any resort we have been too! This was our first time staying at this resort and in Puerto Vallarta, we usually go to Cancun or Hawaii, but the service we received here, we will be back!

"Solid hotel, great ocean view and private pool"

Hotel Mousai is built very nicely with large rooms, an amazing spa, and a great private hot tub (which can be turned off to be a private pool). The food was really nice at each restaurant, but Hiroshi was a step above in terms of food quality and service. We went to Hiroshi twice, first having Abraham and then Christian and José as our waiters, and the three of them really made the experience. They were fantastic and I'd recommend this hotel based on them alone. If we were going back again I may try to go to Hiroshi every night.The reason for the 4/5 rather than 5/5 was because they pressure you to attend a residence club sales breakfast (which is not mandatory but they are quite pushy). This was a bit off-putting, as we were handed off from person to person 5 times, and in the sales office after the breakfast, they run a local cell network that sets the clock on your phone back 1 hour so you will think it's earlier than it is. Not a practice I'd expect from a hotel of this ilk. Still, they did give us a $150 hotel credit for attending, but I'd definitely skip this next time. The 2.5 hours wasn't worth it and it cheapened the rest of our experience.

"Hotel Mousai Rooftop and Garza Blanca"

This is our second time being here and we have to say its been such an amazing experience. Tons of staff have went out of their ways to really make our experiences mind blowing and amazing. Definitely the two best servers Ive encountered on this resort has to be angel who has a memory like no other and very polite and awesome. And the guy who really blew us away our second trip has to be Alberto from the Rooftops. He took care of us 3 different times and completely hooked us up making us feel at home. That guy is a amazing server and deserves a raise besides the fact that I think hes working at the best part of the resort anyways lol. But thank you again Alberto you were an amazing guy to meet during the vacation. One more shout out would be our personal concierge Lorena she helped us from beginning to end and has to be one of the most well spoken woman Ive ever met she knows everything and has one of the best personalities Ive met. Amazing lady. Overall love this place always recommend

"Nima"

This is my girlfriends and I second time here. This by far is our favorite hotel in Mexico. We have been in hotels in Cabo and Cancun although good, none compare to Hotel Mousai. Its truly an amazing experience. The rooms are huge and comes with so many things including a jacuzzi that you can change temperatures and make it a pool. Enjoy an expresso while laying in your hammock. The food and service is unbelievable. We went to the terrace for breakfast every morning where Angel, Eduardo (nick name tall skinny guy) and Enrique were amazing and always got the party started in the morning for us with amazing mimosas and great service. They have so many different flavors. Try the passion fruit. The roof top Infiniti pool is unbelievable with live music and amazing views at the beach. Thanks to Alberto and Guillermo who were ALWAYS on point with their service. Always brought our delicious foods and drinks on a timely matter. I highly recommend the hike with Oswaldo and Sergio. They also were great pool concierges at Garza Blanca. Helped us with our every need. The hike is VERY intense but they were amazing at keeping us safe in the jungle. At the end, you are rewarded by jumping in a body of refreshing water. Last but not least the concierge was great. Special thanks to Rosy who made my girlfriends trip. We were celebrating her getting her doctorates in pharmacy and Rosy helped make her feel EXTRA special. Best part is, if you stay at hotel Mousai, you also can enjoy everything at Garza Blanca. I also highly recommend the spa. They have the most amenities I have ever seen at a spa resort with beautiful ocean views. My massage from my massage therapist Julia was so amazing and relaxing that I was falling in an out of sleep for a little bit. So good! Thank you all for making our trip a memorable one. We will definitely be back when the North Tower opens up!

I wrote a review in 2014 raving about this place as I had just returned from an amazing girls' trip there. The good news is the resort is still beautiful, the food and drinks are still delicious, and the wonderful Tito still works there. That being said, we may not go back.This time the resort was full of families, which is fine. However, the resort has NO adults-only pool. That's right: three pools, including one called the children's pool, but not one for adults only. The main infinity pool should be the one marked and enforced as the adult pool because who wants to be enjoying a cocktail, looking at the ocean, and getting hit with water guns and frisbees? Definitely not this group of ladies.I hope Garza will make this change so that non-family groups can continue to come and enjoy the property. Otherwise, this group will go somewhere else.

"Wedding"

I cannot stop thinking about our balcony and 2 Bedroom suite in tower 5. We all want to come back and are already making plans. The entire suite was lovely and the wall of sliding doors that completely open were awesome! The food, property, activities were all first class. Luisana took great care of our room. Alex provided great service and Pedro the bartender was the bomb! Wendi was also very helpful and professional. Garza Blanca is a truly outstanding resort.

"A Beautiful Wedding "

Wow! We had a beautiful stay and cant wait to go back. The setting is beautiful, food and drinks are amazing. Staff was so gracious and helpful. Special props to Alex, Pedro and Wendi (from Oklahoma). They bent over backwards to keep us happy! (There were 100 of us there for the wedding) We were so impressed with the rooms and their views. My only complaint-and I should have mentioned while I was there-the washing machine in our suite only had hot water. However, our room was kept spotless and well appointed by Luisana. She went out of her way to help us. See yall soon I hope!

"Rooms, food and pool are all wonderful!"

We have stayed at Garza Blanca resort several times and we have never been disappointed! The hotel rooms are absolutely beautiful with great views. The staff are friendly and helpful. We brought the kids because they love this place and the hotel has spacious units with our own hot tub, kitchen and laundry. My husband and I had date night at the adults only Japanese restaurant with great food and wonderful service from Cristian and Jose. We have gone to Mexico almost every year for 20 years. Compared to many resorts, this one is top-notch with some of the best food. You can trust the food and cleanliness of this resort. The beach is fine (brown sand and cold ocean water) but not as nice as beaches are in the Cancun area (white sand and warmer water). But the pool is fantastic! Book your transportation to and from the airport in advance and DO NOT get sucked into the sales pitches as you leave the airport. They can be deceptive saying they are with your hotel when they are not. Be very careful to hook up with the right transportation service or you will waste time and money.

"Amazing dinner at Hiroshi!!"

The waiters and waitresses were simply amazing. Jose and Abraham provided excellent service and the head waiter even stopped by our table to provide excellent jokes and a few card tricks as well!! A word of advice, what happens in Mexico..... stays on Facebook. It was the best sushi we have ever had in our lives with a 5 course sampling of the freshest sushi we have ever had. Everything was personalized and worth every penny. Tip your servers well!! They deserve it!! Best dinner experience on our honeymoon yet.

"GREAT PLACE TO STAY WITH FAMILY"

This is a great place to stay with family. We stayed for 4 nights and loved every part of it. The kids had fun with the pool/beach just feet away from our suite. The food was good (not very good), we were served cold breakfast a couple of time, but a quick call to the front desk did the trick. The hospitality is out of the roof. The staff is courteous and welcoming. The 4 stars is only because the food was a more 3.5/5.We would definitely recommend Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta.

This resort makes Four Seasons look like a Holiday Inn. The staff goes above and beyond to accommodate every request. Not to mention the service, Alex & Pedro are second to none. They made sure you always had a drink in your hand and would stop at nothing less. The resort has multiple pools that offer a multitude of positive vibes, as well as a large array of dining options that could contend with Michelin rated eateries. Would highly recommend staying here when visiting Puerto Vallarta.

"Birthday trip, superior service, memorable trip"

I didnt want to leave! 2nd time at Garza, best trip yet. We came for our friends 40th birthday and his little girls 8th birthday (same day). Decided to splurge for the penthouse and it was so worth it. 3 bedrooms, 3 bath, full kitchen, and concierge service. It was GORGEOUS!. Had 4 adults and 2 kids (3 and 8 years old). We got nanny service for a few hours to get dinner or Hiroshi with the adults, and the kids LOVED her. She was great with them. The kids had a blast at the pol, and loved snorkeling on the beach. The food is AMAZING, and so is the room service, which we did a lot with the kiddos. Everything was perfect. By far our favorite restaurant was Hiroshi for Sushi. Ask for Captain Diaz, not only was he hilarious, but he catered to our every need and was so much fun to talk with about fishing. I wish I could name everyone, the staff is amazing, and so kind.There was hand sanitizer EVERYWHERE and everyone kept their respective distance, which made us feel so comfortable traveling during this time. The covid test is onsite which is really convenient too. The hotel grounds are breathtaking very safe and well kept. You never have to leave the resort! We will definitely be coming back here again.

"Garza Blanca is the best"

If you want the best, cleanest, and best service with the best view go to Garza Blanca. The hosts and hostesses were absolutely the kindest. Andrea was great help when we had questions. Ramses remembered us from the year before literally the moment he saw us. He made us feel important and got us towels and seats near the pool. Javier gave the best free Kayak tour to the National park where we snorkeled, swam and kayaked through tunnel through one of the arches. It literally looked like Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney.

"Wedding"

We just got married at Garza Blanca this month! Wow, we are still reliving every moment, everything was absolutely perfect!! Everyone at Garza took care of our guests (about 100 people) and were a huge reason why our wedding was so special. Theres a few people at Garza that really went above and beyond...Zarely - I could go on and on about how amazing Zarely is. We had to postpone our wedding twice due to the pandemic so we weve been working very closely with Zarely for the past two years. She is so dedicated to her job, a perfectionist and truly listened and communicated with us every step of the way. And she is the nicest person!! We cant thank her enough!!Alex - he was our waiter at the pool and at our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception. He is the best of the best! He provided great service to us and all our friends and family. We had so many people tell us about how great Alex was, which was something that made us feel so happy to hear that our guests were getting the best service. Very hard worker! We cant wait to come back to Garza and see Alex!Pedro - wow, he is the best mixologist!! He was also working at our rehearsal dinner and wedding and made the best drinks and best service! We cant wait to go back to see Pedro!Julio - he helped us check in at the front desk and made sure we were taken care of throughout our whole stay. He went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect for us!Jacquie - she helped us after we checked in and helped us make all our dinner reservations. We were also looking everywhere for Mexican candies for our welcome bags for our guests, and thanks to Jacquie she was able to help us find the most incredible assortment of Mexican candies!We have been to Garza Blanca multiple times and always have the best time and best service. The people who work at Garza are truly the best. We will be coming back for years to come!!

Beautiful Place, Great Views, Tasty Food and Awesome Palomas! We started the planning for the wedding with our daughter & her finance back in 2019. Zaraley was so helpful getting us to this date with all the issues, closures due to covid. Zaraley worked together with Eve Chavez our wedding planner @Eventives to make the best Wedding Week all come together beautifully. We met Pedro the Bartender @ the Blanca Blue Restaurant back in 2019-great service, great drinks & we were so pleased to see him again in 2021. Alex the server helped a number of our family & friends and the beach side pool, all raved about his smile and friendly service. We were so lucky to have Zaraley present@ the wedding along with the service Pedro, Juan & all the staff provided to our family and friends while working the wedding was much appreciated.

"Surprisingly consistent!"

This is my 2nd stay at The Garza Blanca in 6 months. The first visit had a few hiccups but the staff worked hard making it right. This time (with the exception of a forgetful waiter at the Blanca Blue Restaurant for breakfast) service was fabulous by a few very customer service oriented people - who Id like to mention. First off was a very nice woman named Lupita. She went out of her way to make right a couple of dinner reservations gone wrong. Behind the scenes it must have taken her at least 3 hours to fix. Very good work Lupita! Our waiters at The Blanca Blue restaurant was exceptional as well. Alvaro and Victor. Thank you! Our family of 6 was awed by the attention to detail and excellent service. Lastly - Our trolley driver- who was conscientious and pleasant - named Alejandro - made it a point to take us back to the hotel promptly- without making me and my 6 old granddaughter wait for more people to fill the shuttle. It was just the 2 of us in the trolley. He could sense my granddaughter was past her bedtime - and very tired. We were beyond grateful. Good job to Garza Blancas staff! Management has done a great job in making our stay - a consistently enjoyable experience!

"Relaxing, Wonderful Vacation"

My husband and I just returned from Hotel Mousai. We cannot say enough wonderful things about the resort and the staff. We travel a lot, and we have never experienced the level of service and hospitality that was offered by everyone we came into contact with. Elisa at the Concierge desk was simply amazing. From the minute we checked in, she made us feel so welcome. She made all our dinner reservations and attended to our every need throughout our entire stay. She checked in on us daily, even coming up to the Rooftop Pool to see if we needed anything. Top-notch professionalism and service. Cesar at the Rooftop Pool was another staff standout. He was so friendly, accommodating, and professional. The food was amazing, the property was well-maintained, and you cannot beat the views. We had a corner suite and even though we were not on a higher floor, the views were absolutely breathtaking. Hotel Mousai took Covid seriously, but we also never felt like it was a problem. All the staff wore their masks, and most guests wore them in the elevator or when there were bigger groups of people. The scheduling of the Covid test, taking the actual test, and receiving the results were all seamless and we had no issues at all. We will definitely be back to Hotel Mousai. This was truly the most relaxing, fun, wonderful vacation we have ever had!

"Unexpected and yummy!"

While staying at the Garza Blanca hotel - my hubby and I had a date night to go to dinner at Hiroshis restaurant at the Hotel Mousai. (Hotel Mousai is one of Hotel Garzas hotel!s on their grounds). My daughter had said that it was an Asian Fusion type of food mix and they served their plates Tapas style - i.e., - small! I was sure that I was going to leave their hungry. Not true! My hubby and I had to roll ourselves out of there! We started with a cocktail at the bar. Waiter was knowledgeable- although not over the top friendly. The hostess Alicia (I think) was fabulous and very welcoming. Our waiter Irving was nice - but I felt he was trying to up sell us on a $78.00 Raw tuna dish - especially rare and a delicacy! No thank you!! Too pricey for my blood. We ended up over ordering! We had the vegetable tempura (to die for) 2 sushi rolls ( the eel was out of this world) the Mexican California roll was good but not as good as the eel. We had edamame, a tofu steak - (not a favorite) an order of chicken Skewers - very good and the wasabi steak. All dishes were very tasty and we were stuffed like cabbages by the time we left. Oh yes - one downsize is that you are not allowed to take leftovers home - some type of company or state policy. :-(We made it a point to meet the manager - Diaz. We had some minor problems with reservations and time frames - but he made sure he squeezed us in. He called himself Cap Diaz and he was simply charming and wonderful! He was very caring - helpful and just sealed the deal in having us come to the conclusion and opinion that this restaurant is a first class well managed upscale restaurant and now a new favored spot! Great job Garza Blanca in having this quaint and high quality restaurant!Well be back!

"The BEST in Puerto Vallarta - No Question About It!!!"

My wife and I love luxury travel and finding and enjoying unique five diamond properties around the world. Fortunately for us our all time favorite - HOTEL MOUSAI in Puerto Vallarta - is only a 2.5 hour flight from our Southern California home. The property's location is A+++ and is just a few miles south of town. Hotel Mousai is the adult only tower of the Garza Blanca resort property and operates as a separate hotel. The views are the most spectacular overlooking magnificent Banderas Bay. The luxury, vibe and quality of this amazing 73 suite tower is mind boggling and definitely is a refreshing change from a predictable Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, St. Regis or Rosewood. The spa and gymnl are like nothing we've ever seen and the food and beverage is outstanding. Hiroshi offers an incredible Japanese dining experience that rivals Nobu while the rooftop dining and room service have unique offerings that will make your mouth water. However, despite the beauty of the location and physical property what really makes Hotel Mousai is the most kind, attentive and incredibly genuine and welcoming service and warmth provided by the staff. We have been regulars since 2016. Hotel Mousai gets a A+++ for their staff retention. It is like coming home when we stay at HOTEL MOUSAI. It is a pleasure to see the familiar faces. Every staff member we come in contact with deserves mention from bell hop, front desk, concierge, pool staff, waiters etc. However, a few staff members near and dear to our heart deserve special mention. Carlos Ramos (butler) and Jennifer Udave (concierge) go above and beyond to ensure all their guests have an amazing experience. Their professionalism, kindness and genuine concern that their guests (whether first timers or regulars) are having a perfect five star experience radiates. They both work tirelessly and pay attention to the smallest details. In summary, HOTEL MOUSAI is an incredible gem and in my opinion the best five diamond property in the Puerto Vallarta area and only five diamond property in Jalisco (Four Seasons etc al in Nayarit). Another note, Punta Mita is gorgeous, but so far removed from the charm, pizzaz, vibe and incredible dining offered downtown. Hotel Mousai is a quick 2.5 mile taxi ride into town and only 150 pesos ($8 USD). So if you are looking to be spoiled at a five diamond Puerto Vallarta resort book HOTEL MOUSAI, but PLEASE don't tell too many people...we kind of want to keep this place a secret.

"Will return over and over...."

This was my second trip to Garza Blanca, this time staying at the Mousai tower. It was a much needed trip away and Mousai was nothing short of total relaxation and pampering. I was blown away by the room and grounds immediately. Although we did come up for dinner at Hiroshi when we stayed at GB, I had no idea how nice the suites were at Mousai. Our deck had a few boards that could stand to be replaced, but to be expected with sun wear and tear. The hot tub and hammock were my favorite spots in the late afternoon.... I could have slept in that hammock. The food in my opinion is excellent, far better than most resorts. My favorite was probably Bocados on both visits, the steak is perfection. Hiroshi has great sushi and the bar there has the best drinks on the entire property. We had breakfast every morning on The Terrace which was lovely. Plenty of options for food and drinks! Always had my coffee, green juice, water, and passion fruit mimosas lined up. We did not get dinner on the The Rooftop, however we did get snacks at the pool there daily and everything was fresh. The drinks were perfect for lounging in the sun, we had the watermelon cocktail everyday! Room service was also very good and very prompt. I will say I know that due to the times the hotel wasn't fully booked and so it felt like we never had to run up to the roof to get a pool bed early or rush to breakfast to have a seat. That said, when I did visit a few years ago during non-covid times it still never felt like the resort was overly packed. We did take a few nights and go into Old Town and have dinner and drinks which was perfectly arranged for us by our concierge. I want to recognize so many people for their top notch service and I wish I could remember all the names! Ambrocio (sp) and his team at the Hiroshi bar/restaurant were amazing and we had to visit them nightly for cocktails. Rafael and his team on the roof deck made our pool days perfection with their attentiveness and great service. All of the wonderful bartenders and waitstaff at Blanca Blue for indulging us in our needs for espresso martinis! The guys at The Terrace for taking care of us and a few of our hangovers at breakfast. Leo with concierge/butler services you better be there when we come back to see the new tower, your personality was infectious in the most positive way. Elisa and Jennifer at the concierge desk made every request possible and took care of us, thank you! I will return to Mousai without a doubt!

"Fantastic relaxing vacation"

Amazing vacation! The Mousai resort is in a nice secluded rainforest mountain about a 20 min taxi ride ($8 USD) or Uber from the downtown Boardwalk/Romantic Zone of Puerto Vallarta. All the staff speak good to excellent English thankfully. This all-adult modern resort (majority of guests seem to be ages 3550, and is not a party/spring break resort) is the epitome of luxury with the best amenities, excellent fine dining options (must make reservations in advance - I would recommend doing this for all the restaurants on the day you arrive), and an all-inclusive option (all-you-can eat and drink, included room service, premium liquors and cocktails). The rooftop infinity pool gives perfect relaxing vacation vibes with poolside service (extensive food menu, drinks and amenities), comfy cushioned lounge chairs with pillows, and plenty of umbrellas/cabanas for a shady option. The rooms are incredible with a Bose sound system, iPad-controlled features, balcony hot tub, full mini bar, fancy bidet toilet, pillow menu, double headed shower, makeup station and mirror, lounge chairs, and amazing views. The daily cleaning service was perfect - our room was so clean and well stocked with towels, bottled water, etc. as well as cleaning the floors/surfaces and general tidying up. Hotel Mousai is the sister resort to the Garza Blanca resort which Mousai guests are allowed to use including the restaurants, additional pools, and the beach. The resort offers additional included activities such as hiking (they own the whole mountain), paddle boards, and kayaks. While there are not a ton of activity options on the resort (I understand that the goal is relaxation), there are options for excursions that the concierge can help with and the downtown area is an easy and safe day trip for other activities/night life. The women who work concierge are extremely professional and I trusted their judgment and recommendations completely. Another great amenity is the trolley/shuttle that can transport you around the resort- thank goodness because there are a lot of stairs.I appreciate that this resort is VERY Covid-friendly. All the staff are always in masks (even though I know they're hot!) and there are signs encouraging guests to wear masks when moving about public areas. The resort is clean and very spacious, allowing social distancing. It was very easy to schedule our rapid covid tests with the hotel before returning home to the U.S.There is still construction going on (as of Apr 2021) of the new tower they're building, but honestly it didn't bother us, even on the rooftop because they had music playing.My trip was just in mid-April and it was a bit too hot/humid for me, so I would recommend going in February or March.While I saw many reviews expressing issues with their room charges/bill, we did not have any issues at all and they deducted our resort credit at the end of our trip.

"Sunset vegetarian dinner experience at Rooftop restaurant at hotel Masai"

Chef Karlos has created excellent vegan/vegetarian dinner. Started with tofu sashimi with pesto with a hint of truffle oil with confetti vegetables. Main was tofu burger patties with couple different sauces, purées, vegetable garnishes and crunches. He even made me warm berry compote with home made vegan banana ice cream. These dishes were amazing dish and I hope they will add to them to regular dinner menu. Even non-vegetarians can be enjoying these dishes. All staff are super friendly and helpful, but Frida went above and beyond of her duty to make arrangement for this out of this world vegan dinner experience.

A few-standouts during my stay were definitely Virginia who cleaned my room perfectly each day, Alex and Tito at the pool, Nicte from the Conciegre staff and of course the Butler staff who are just outstanding: Roberto, Jose, Alejandro, Manuel and of course Valenzo. Thanks to everyone at Garza for a wonderful stay and Ill see you again soon!!

"Just Came Home and Already Booked to Go Back....."

Like most people we have been trying to take a trip for well over a year and when finally, we were able to we chose Garza Blanca in PV. Partly due to the way they are handling Covid testing but mostly because of the reviews we saw from other people. We just returned on Saturday night and we are already booked to return again this December but this time with my parents. We do not usually do that, but we were so impressed we wanted to share the experience with them. The resort is stunning, the service was excellent and the people that work there were the nicest and kindest folks you will ever meet. I honestly cannot remember a time where we were treated so well on vacation. We would like to thank Rosie for getting us acclimated and settled in and then always following up with us during the week. Roberto and Alejandro were great and create the best drinks in the resort. Alex, Tito and Marco were always there to help and serve and always smiling. Caesar is wonderful if you want to do the Kayaks and Paddleboard which we did several times during the week. Unfortunately, I did not get the name of our server at Horoshi but I highly recommend having dinner there at least one night. We also want to thank Virginia who took care of our room each day and night with exceptional care and service. We were also pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. We really enjoyed all the restaurants as well as the rooftop bar. The resort itself is beautiful and hearing the ocean all night was relaxing. They do have some construction going on, but it is only during the day and honestly you cannot hear it over the ocean. If you have been looking for one of those special vacations, I would highly recommend this resort. Thank you Garza for taking such good care of us while we were there

"Family Spring Break"

Had a great morning taking the kids on a trek through the jungle. Our guide assisted our youngest through the tougher parts and she had a blast (age 10). The waterfalls werent running usually June and July, but nice time to get out in nature first thing in the morning with plenty of time to get back to the pool and relax. 2.5 hours - at first I thought this is way to advanced for me and my kids, but definitely would recommend. The views from the top are breathtaking! Learned a lot from our guide on the tour. Ramses took great care of my youngest!!!

"Stunning ocean views, first-class staff and great activities for children"

Garza Blanca was fantastic! Our suite was beautifully furnished and impeccably clean with stunning views of the ocean. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful and the plethora of food options (room service, Blanca Blue, Aquazul, Hiroshi, Bocados STK) were delicious. The Japanese restaurant on-site, Hiroshi, had spectacular views of the sunset while dining. We took full advantage of the kids club and our daughter had a great time watching live shows put on for the kids, doing yoga and making crafts. The massages we got at the spa were so relaxing and the unique "hydrotherapy" offering is a must-try. Garza Blanca helped us arrange transportation to/from the airport in Puerto Vallarta, answered all of our questions prior to and during our stay and made sure we had a very relaxing family getaway.

One of the best resorts we've ever had the privilege of staying. The staff is fun, friendly and genuine, even as they all comply with face covering standard. Can't wait to return to one of these suites again. The hot tub on the deck is perfect anytime.

"Not our usual style, but..."

We never ever stay at resorts. This was an almost-last-minute getaway to just get some beach, pool, and spa time before my husband gets back to work after so long on the pandemic furlough. The whole resort was well kept, with great views, and the staff were all warm and friendly. Hygiene theater was in full swing; seemed like I was getting squirted with hand sanitizer every other step I took, and temperatures were taken frequently. I call it theater because while I appreciate the effort, I believe masking and distancing are much more effective than all that other stuff. Almost none of the (mostly US American) guests wore masks or seemed to care much about keeping their distance, but the staff were always masked up.We took the all-inclusive package even though we didn't intend to milk it for every meal (there are too many good restaurants in PV to try -- see reviews of Cafe des Artistes and Tintoque). The food was better than I expected. We ate at Blanca Blue and Bocados, and both places had good options for my pescatarian diet. We got the honeymoon suite just to have the terrace with hot tub, and the room was spacious, clean, and the hot tub was functional (something I've learned to be skeptical about). It even let me set it to 40C and stayed close to that temperature during our stay.The spa was up at Mousai, where we would have booked if there had been a room with the right configuration available. Mousai is the adults-only part of the resort, with flashier appointments, an exclusive pool, and a cool rooftop bar/restaurant that is reserved for Mousai guests most of the day.Luis at the spa was an excellent masseur. We had pre-booked hot stone massages with him our first full day there, and we liked him so much we went back two days later for regular relaxing massages. The hydrotherapy room was a trip, perched so far above the sea, with lots of different stations for sauna, steam, hot and cool soaks, and this weird tube you sit in for what I call the "water torture" (it's really just like someone turns a firehose on your shoulders from above). The one slight down note was that we felt a bit pressured to attend an "ownership program" orientation. Nothing against time shares, I know people who use them and love them, but we weren't willing to spend that time on such a short vacation. I had the impression the concierge staff was under enormous pressure to push this program. To their credit, they did back off after we first said we would attend and then thought more about it and canceled.We would probably not go back to this place, but not because of anything wrong with the property, staff, or value of the all-inclusive package. We just usually prefer to stay in smaller boutique hotels or rent an airbnb, and it would have been nice to be closer in town since we ended up not wanting to get in the water as much as we thought we would. Though it was always easy to get a taxi into town for about $10 each way and we never had to wait more than a few minutes.Overall I would definitely recommend this place for families with some $$ to spend and who don't necessarily want to spend much time in town.

"Cant get enough of Garza Blanca"

It was our third year in a row at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta and Im not exaggerating when I say we love it more every time we come. The hospitality is unbelievable...immediately upon arrival being greeted and taken care of by Carlo and Joel to the daily assistance provided by the gentlemen around the pool (Ramses, Tito and Oswaldo, to name a few), everyone literally treats you like royalty. And the views from the mountain panoramic rooms are just breathtaking. The food is great and the pools are perfect! The beach isnt the best (a bit rocky), but that wasnt an issue for our family since we often spend most of our time at the pools wherever we go and regardless of how nice the beach may be. If youre looking for an amazing vacation destination, look no further...this place is amazing!

"Great hotel!! "

First time in PV and we had a wonderful time! Hotel Mousai was really a fantastic experience. Carlos Ramos was our experience host and he always went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and to take care of reservations and bookings for us. He was kind and sincere about his duties. The entire staff is thoughtful and gracious, top notch. The only drawback was the incessant construction noise which starts early every weekday. Hard to deal with while you are trying to relax.

When you imaging getting away to paradise this Hotel is what you dream of. It is everything you want on a vacation. This is our first time to Puerto Vallarta and we love it! If you are an adventurer the Botanical is one of the best in the world. There are amazing hikes to falls. Plenty of excursions. Rhythm of the night is a great boat ride to and island wit a spectacular show! So much to offer here in PV. We just became owners on this trip, so we are already planning our next trip to one of their properties in Cabo. We have already been to Cabo, but are excited to stay at the resort there. Mention me and youll get the Royal treatment and a fraction of what you would pay if you booked everything yourself. Dolce Vida!

"Garza Blanca for the win 2021 spring break!"

We were excited to FINALLY get here. COVID had us reschedule four times...Highly recommend! We traveled with our 11 year old daughter. There was plenty for us all to do. It was the best trip to date. The rooms, pools, activities and staff are first class. We went the pool everyday. The pool staff and waiters are very attentive. We LOVED Alex! Spent a great day in the sun and he made sure we had anything we needed. We also enjoyed a morning kayak/snorkel tour with Cesar. It leaves daily from the beach, it is a beautiful way to start the day. Cesar is knowledgeable about the area and marine life, super interesting. We did the waterfall hike as well. Oswald, fantastic guide, helped us navigate the trail as we are not hikers. There are several hikes during the week at different levels. We chose intermediate. Worth it! Both guides were professional, knowledgable, and fun. The best part is these activities are included with your stay. You don't have to leave the resort. Each takes about two to two and a half hours. Plenty of time to enjoy the rest of the day doing what you want. Don't miss checking out Spa Imagine, the services are wonderful and the VIEW is crazy good! The hydrotherapy is worth doing. Maria was awesome, wish I had more time to schedule again before we left. Next time!

"Picture Perfect Destination"

Garza Blanca is the only place our family will stay when visiting Puerto Vallarta! The location is perfect-far enough out of town to give you a true authentic Mexican experience. You have the ocean in front of you with a beautiful sandy beach, and the lush green jungle at your back. Its truly peaceful and relaxing, as any vacation should be! Our family has visited the resort 3-4 times now and each trip is better than the last. The staff is absolutely amazing and so kind and accommodating! The bar in Blanca Blue is by far our favorite spot for craft cocktails and divine cuisine. Daniel, Angel and Ulises have been there for years and feel like old friends! They truly make our stay memorable and make it so hard to leave! Jeane in Concierge is also so amazing and has taken great care in making our stays comfortable and stress-free. She too has been with the resort for many years and makes us feel like family each time we visit. Truly a special group of people in an unforgettable destination!

"Really enjoyed our trip to Mousai!"

My wife and I stayed at the adults only hotel at Mousai for a week. We really enjoyed the service and food during our stay. Ricardo helped check us in and helped us out a ton. Eliza and Ernesto helped us plan the week with adventures and relaxing time. Alay (miguel) was our waiter at the sushi restaurant and we had so much fun talking to him. The entire staff at the roof top pool was top notch. They made us feel like royalty, especially Enrique. We also did a kayak tour with Cesar. He was a lot of fun and rescued my snorkel I dropped in the water! Finally we did a hike with Ramses and Torre..... probably the best adventure we had. Rameses and Torre went out of their way to ensure we had a fun experience. Thanks for the great times and adventures. We will certainly be back.

"Exactly what we needed. "

We traveled during the transition time where the US required Covid test for re-entry. This meant that flights were extremely empty and the hotel was booked at only ~20-30%. Therefore, we felt like we were having our own lavish private vacation...almost. And that is what we neededa break from the craziness of US politics and the politicization of Covid. PV was such a welcome relief. Everyone followed appropriate precautionsit was the occasional tourist that did not. We felt very safe. And Hotel Mousai was awesome! Food, drinks, view, Covid test all well done! The best!Rooftop view and pool are fantastic! All of the hosp employees are wonderfulfrom housekeeping to waiters to concierges to our butler. We cannot wait to return! We used our balcony hot tub every morning before bfast and every evening before dinner! We loved the sushi3 nights worth! And also our bfasts!! Also, must try the shrimp burger, tuna burger and grilled octopus on the Rooftop for lunch. We did venture off property on 2 different nights to go to our fave PV restaurants. This trip was just a welcome relief and retreat. Will def be back.

Our second visit to Garza Blanca was yet another memorable one. Wendy at the front desk did all in her power to make this stay unforgettable. Her active listening and attention to details were amazing. Araceli, who took care of our needs in the suite went out of her way to make us feel at home and pampered. I need to mention 2 gentleman; Carlos & Salvador who were very helpful, friendly and warm. One special attribute to this resort is that you feel the genuine attitude of the team members at the heart level when you see them put their hand on their heart. I wish I had all the names to mention here. Great management to leave such a positive impression on the guests.

"The Experience of a Lifetime!"

Its hard to even put into words the exquisite luxury I experienced at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta. Ive been to luxury resorts all over the world and nothing quite compares to the beautiful views, palatial suite, and impeccable service I experienced at Garza Blanca. The staff made this a trip Ill never forget for as long as I live, and I have a feeling Ill be comparing every future trip to this one.The room itself was one of the biggest Ive ever stayed in. We were lucky enough to stay in the three-bedroom panorama suite. The view was heavenly! In fact, for the first time in my entire life, I extended my trip. The moment I walked in, I knew two nights wouldnt be enough and changed my flight on the spot! It happened to be whale season while we were there, so we actually got to see whales jumping out of the water from our room. It was breathtaking. When we werent enjoying the gorgeous view from our room, we were exploring the grounds. There are three pools at Garza Blanca: two near the beach, and one right next to our building. The poolside food was actually extremely good. We dined out here all three days and had the best quesadilla of our lives!As for activities, there was so much to do that I experienced another first: I didnt leave the resort at all! There was simply no need to. And I knew that if I did, Id feel like I was missing out on what Garza Blanca had to offer. We joined a group hike one morning that was led by a team member at Garza and there were about 10 other guests on the hike with us. Their main goal is to keep their guests safe and healthy so in an effort to avoid crowds, they only lead hikes on their private property at this time.Additionally, we spent an afternoon at the Imagine Spa at Hotel Mousai, Garza Blancas adults-only sister hotel which is actually on the same grounds as Garza Blanca. It was without a doubt, no question, the best spa experience I have ever had in my life.If you arent sure about doing all-inclusive, let me tell you: do it! There are three delicious dining options at Garza Blanca and one in particular at Hotel Mousai that I absolutely recommend. Even the room service was incredible! On our first night, we dined at Bocados STK. We went with wine that night and all loved our meals. The next night, we went to Blanca Blue. I had the best soup of the trip there and we all really loved our cocktails. Our last night we ate at Hiroshi at Hotel Mousai. If you like sushi, prepared to be blown away. In fact, even if you dont (like me!), you will be blown away. I absolutely loved my veggie roll and the black & white roll was a crowd favorite.Traveling during a pandemic can be daunting, but Garza Blanca makes it super easy. They offer covid tests on-site and free of charge! We booked ours as soon as we checked in, and they came right to our room to test us. We had our results that same night. It was awesome! It also made me feel a lot safer at the hotel knowing most guests had been tested as well.I hope Ive been able to convey just how incredible Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa in Puerto Vallarta is. I really feel like words, photos, and even videos dont do this place justice. I cant recommend Garza Blanca enough and I hope everyone has the opportunity to feel the way we did when we were there.

"Spectacular Get Away"

Second visit to Garza Blanca Preserve, Resort and Spa. First visit, I was concerned when my room was not right on the beach. However, the views and ease in transport from the Hillside were amazing. The restaurants have delicious menus, from the Bocado STK, steak house, Hiroshi at Mousai, Seafood and the delicious Aquazul Mexican dishes. My three favorites! and the Spa is a must. Starting with the Hydration Therapy and ending with a wonderful massage. Mother nature was even on their side with the humpback whales showing off their new calves right in front of the property. Simply breath taking. It was a perfect 4 day get away.

We have stayed at this resort four times, enjoying the all inclusive package each time. We will definitely come again. The staff is wonderful, accommodations perfect, food at the three restaurants delicious, and we really enjoy seeing the same employees each year. Especially MOISE at the lower poolside, serving his customers so cheerfully and warmly. We have gotten to know him, as he has us. And we really appreciate his excellent service as well as his friendship!

"Hands Down the BEST place I have stayed!"

My wife, three daughters, and I have been to the Garza three times now (in the past 9 months). I have a very hard time going anywhere else now...and haven't. We stayed in a 3 bedroom ultra-panorama the first time, and the penthouse the next two times. Totally worth it. From arrival to the unfortunate departure, every single one of our needs was met and exceeded. Carlo and Wendy are our two main points of contact, but have made friends with many of the other staff members. Everyone there goes out of their way to make you feel respected and like you're the most important person at the resort. The food is wonderful. The pool is fantastic. The rooms are updated. The beach is sandy and awesome. The room service is great. The maid service is second to none. I dont even use the safe anymore. We feel completely comfortable leaving cash, electronics, and jewelry out on our counters. I completely trust everyone on the property and plan to purchase a unit this year in the new Lemuria development. Anyone who could possibly find anything wrong with this place has serious problems. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to relax and let their worries melt away.

"Excellent in every way!"

We enjoyed our dinner so much at the Hotel Mousai Japanese restaurant at Garza Blanca tonight! The food was very delicious, the presentation beautiful, the view stunning, and the service by Abraham and Jose, perfect! They are delightful men and were attentive to any need we had. We already made reservations to go there again! We highly recommend!

"Perfect romantic get away"

My husband and I come to Mousai at least twice a year... its the perfect get away to relax and unwind. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive. We love the rooms, the wrap around balcony with hot tub is perfect. We probably spend most of our time at the pool. At the top of the hotel the infinity view is breath taking. For an all inclusive the drinks are all top shelf, and the staff always make sure you have what you want. If you are looking to relax and recharge, this is your happy place.

"A revitalizing & exceptional experience!"

This resort is phenomenal! Only stayed for 4 days and I wish we could have stayed longer. Absolutely beautiful hotel and suites (almost didn't want to leave the comforts of the room--there's a jacuzzi and hammock on the balcony!), as well as amenities, along with stunning views of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean. We were there on a family trip with my partner, and everyone had a great time. We had exceptional service all around, particularly from our butler Carlos--he really took care of us and went above and beyond every day. Enrique at the rooftop pool was very attentive as well--that was one of our favorite places to hang out. The food at the pool was also some of our faves (try the popcorn chicken and the Paloma cocktail!). Nothing beats sipping a cocktail in the rooftop infinity pool as the whales in the bay pass by below!Breakfast from the Terrace is also a treat with great views of the bay--good food (loved the eggs florentine and chocolate pancakes) and nice for in-room delivery to enjoy as the sun rises too. Other restaurants on the property also provided scrumptious meals--particularly Hiroshi and Boca Dos steakhouse. My partner and I were able to squeeze in a couples spa treatment, the Soul Connection, which we both LOVED. The hydrotherapy circuit prior to the couples session was also a highlight and a delightful new experience. We also took the tai chi class on the beach (on Wednesday mornings!), which we also enjoyed, as our family and friends took the kayaks out to go snorkeling. Overall, all the staff we came into contact with were knowledgeable about the hotel property and its services, attentive, professional, and always eager to help. Carlos was a wonderful resource and helped us coordinate everything we wanted to do! Our experience would not have been the same without him!We've both traveled the world and stayed at various hotel properties, but Hotel Mousai stands head and shoulders above the rest. Came home feeling supremely restored after staying at Hotel Mousai... Highly recommend!

"Amazing Experience at Garza Blanca"

We spent a week at Garza Blanca, this was our first time to this resort. And we were impressed! We liked that it is surrounded by green mountains and situated away from the prime hotel zone, Absolutely wonderful service, everyone from the moment we arrived till last second in this resort went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, memorable and pleasant: bell service, concierge, check-in desk, restaurants- barmen, chefs, waiters, hosts, managers, beach and pool service, trolley service, housekeeping, spa - all 5 Star! Would like to complement them all. Resort is very clean, food is só delicious, little beach is enjoyable and pools areas are beautifully set and clean! If you want to have a relaxing getaway and far from the hotel zone - this is the place. This resort is expanding and I am sure it will be even better once it is all completed.

"I don't think I have ever experienced better service in my life"

To start off my husband and I took a late "honeymoon" vacation here. It was very relaxing and the service was impeccable. This is a long review but I wanted to be as detailed as possible. Beach: The beach was nice but there were people selling items right near the beach lounge chairs and they were pretty pushy. That was a turn off to visit the beach. The food offered on the beach was just okay. Rooftop pool: Best part of our trip was enjoying the rooftop pool. Definitely get there early around 11 in order to secure a spot. For food try the chicken popcorn, the octopus skewers, the baja shrimp tacos, the burger & the watermelon caprese salad. Service was great, pool was warm and there is plenty of shade if needed. Rooftop restaurant: This by far was our worst dinner dining experience. We found the food to be poor overall. We had the duck, the filet, the bone marrow (which was cool) a salad, some scallops & the macaron dessert all of which we did not care for. Now the ambiance was good but it wasn't worth it. Hiroshi Restaurant: After all of the reviews I expected this to be our favorite. Overall the food was good but not great. The service by Jose & Abraham was awesome and the bartender made me this passionfruit & pineapple mocktail that was amazing. We had the mango roll, the tuna taco (which was the best), edamame which was delicious, soup, and dessert. We loved the service and the food was hit or miss but the view is great and is definitely a restaurant to visit. Terrace (Breakfast): I enjoyed the terrace a few mornings and found the service, food and the view to be great. It's beautiful and it's a great place to enjoy your breakfast. We had an ommlette, pancakes, french toast, eggs benedict & fruit. You have to go for the view and the service alone. Blanca Blue (at Garza Blanca): We went here for dinner & breakfast. The food again was hit or miss. For dinner I suggest the shrimp with creamy rice & fried fish tacos - I would stay pass on the octopus, melted cheese, seafood bisque. Breakfast was okay - The view of the ocean is gorgeous and service is great. Bocados: We tried here for breakfast. They were really busy. Many people were being pursued by timeshare representatives. We waited about 40 minutes for our food which was okay but it was frustrating. Room Service: We did room service about 3 times. The burger was great. Most of the dinner options were not great. This is by far the worst food we had quality and taste wise. Breakfast was great since you can enjoy it out on your personal balcony- the coffees we ordered came pretty cold but overall breakfast is a great option. Drinks: Most mixed drinks are going to be watered down with mixers. My husband noticed this with most of his drinks. They are good but tend to be more sugary, watery, & not as strong as what you are probably used to. Desserts: I would say no to all dessert options in my opinion. I tried most of them and didn't care for them. We did the ultra suite so we had a mini fridge full of beer, sodas and hard liquor. The liquor bottles were about half the size of one you would purchase at a store. You can consume one each day of your stay. They did replenish the other drinks as we consumed them. The balcony in the room was perfect the "hot tub" & the hammock were great. We spent a lot of time enjoying the view and the privacy. The room was huge and looks just like the photos. We had a butler Ernesto who was great. Although we couldn't get our texting communication figured out he was always around to answer questions, coordinate spa appointments, dinner reservations, aromatherapy and anything else we needed. Leo down at the concierge was also very helpful when we checked in. He went over maps, restaurants, and answered all of our questions. He even helped me get sunscreen from the shop. Our room was perfect, housekeeping did an amazing job. Our room was always clean and we never had to ask for anything it was always there when we needed it. I think one area they can improve is the food. There are a lot of options but sometimes the description doesn't match was you are getting like it goes here in the U.S. It was a hit or miss at every restaurant as far as food goes. 10/10 for service & staff10/10 for views10/10 for room7/10 for food & drinks We really enjoyed our stay. I think the staff at Hotel Mousai are the most amazing, helpful, and attentive people I have ever met. As far as service goes this place is a 10/10. I don't think I have ever experienced better service in my life.

"Perfect Getaway"

We have just returned from a two-week "get away from everything" stay at the beautiful Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa. In one word, I will summarize our experience as excellent in all respects. We had originally booked a One Bedroom Beachfront and upon arrival, we were upgraded to a Two- Bedroom Panorama Ultra Suite (4101-A). Being in our early sixties, we have travelled extensively yet this suite accommodation was the nicest we have ever experienced. On the 10th floor, we had truly had a million dollar panorama view of the Bay of Banderas with a seemingly endless L shaped glass railed balcony that included his/her sun loungers, 4-chair dinner table, cocktail table with 2 chairs and most enjoyable- a full sized jacuzzi hot tub! The suite itself was openly spacious with dinning and living room floor to ceiling windows on rails that easily opened fully to enjoy the afternoon ocean breezes. Additional features included a fully equipped kitchen (w drip coffee and expresso maker!), 3 full baths, very comfortable King bed in Master and 2 queens in the 2nd bedroom. The resort features several restaurants (Blanca Blue-beach, Boca Steak house-mid mountain, Japanese and Rooftop up at the Mousai Hotel) that are open to all guests on the all inclusive or European dining options. all All the food was excellent including room service menus but our favorite was the Boca Steakhouse which had a diverse menu of steaks, seafood, pasta dishes etc. Regardless of where you are in the resort, staff service is outstanding whether you are in a restaurant, poolside, or having an quite room service dinner in your suite. In regards to Covid precautions- my spouse is an RN and she was impressed. All Garza Blanca staff wore masks 100% of the time and hand sanitizer was always within reach. The resort offers free on-site Covid testing 2 days before departure. Our negative test results were emailed to us first thing the next morning and the front desk will gladly print out a hard copy just to be sure things go smoothly at the airport. Highlights of our stay- fully equipped fitness center,couples massage (for two) in the Musai Spa, languid sunny afternoons next the beach pool, the guided mountain hike and a booked excursion "Ritmos de la Notche." This was a wonderful boat-ferried dinner and spectacular show (better than Vegas!) Special thanks goes to Nikki and the whole Concierge Team. We are already planning our next visit in November!

"Garza Blanca was absolute paradise"

Garza Blanca is the most beautiful all inclusive resort I have ever stayed at. The views are itop notch, the rooms are clean, spacious, and right on the ocean, the infinity pools are stunning and the open air decks at the restaurants made for some incredible sunset dinners. We booked a 4 night vacation at Garza Blanca through Ruth Demuth at TripGuy Travel. The entire process was extremely seamless. Transfers were included, and we were picked up from the airport and dropped in paradise. I cant say enough good things about Garza Blanca. Ever single person was friendly, willing to answer any of our questions and provide us with any items we may have needed. The food and drink were incredible at every restaurant including the the pool. The staff really made this resort a memorable experience. Covid protocols were followed and it honestly felt like we had the whole resort to ourselves. I can't wait to return!

"Spectacular views, beautiful resort"

Beautiful deluxe resort about 10 minutes South of Romantic Zone- would rate 4.5 stars overall- here are some facts to know if considering:- Garza Blanca is a time share property- and your concierge is actually trying to get you to attend sale presentations- very nice- but if you are not interested you will need to be comfortable saying no at least 5-6 times. - construction- Hotel Mousai is building a second tower to the South of current tower- (almost complete on exterior construction) resort is opening a new section of roadway- which means old section near beachfront towers will be demolished soon to make way for additional expansion more towers and pools. Looks like an additional 5-6 towers will be built in years to come.- panoramic towers- (towers 4 and 5) are amazing- recommend tower 4 for best views and furthest from construction- and patios offer more privacy- tower 5 patios facing North are fully exposed for guests at Hotel Mousai to see- floors 1-2 will offer tropical tree views- 3rd floor and higher for amazing views- we were on floor 9 - ultra panoramic floor- insane views! You can and will hear noise from the roadway below- its not over the top but it can be noticeable at times- specifically when construction trucks are coming through.- 2 bedroom Panoramic suite- 30 foot wall of glass doors that hideaway into the wall- we left ours open for 6 days- it was amazing!! Jacuzzi on deck is for 4ppl and perfect place to relax. Kitchen is nicely stocked- full coffee maker (coffee supplied daily), Nespresso machine- coffee supplied, bottled water supplied daily- never run out!!, washer dryer- comes with detergent, only real miss was the entertainment system- they need to upgrade to smart TVs no way to stream on their televisions- bring your connections cords or IPads- LG tvs - food- food and beverages at the pool was awesome- and reasonably priced- beers are about $3 each- cocktails about $8 each- great nachos, wings, quesadilla etc.. the steakhouse was good- amazing views- good quality beef- but the rest was just okay- Mexican restaurant is okay at best- nothing special. Imagine Spa- located near top of Hotel Mousai- beautiful views from wet area- fully open wall of glass doors- awesome area! Had two massages- both were great- $199 for 80 minutes massage-promo offer additional 20 minute mini facial or body scrub.- Pre- Arrival offers- property will send you pre- arrival offers about 30 days before your arrival date- two 90 minute massages for about $330- or $150 for $180 in spa value- good deals- the all inclusive offer at $119 per person per day- not so much- food and beverage prices are reasonable so unless you really want to go to town on drinks and food- not really worth it.- tram- there is one tram to take you from Mousai or towers 4-5 down to beachfront pool and lobby- most of the time the wait was no more than 5 minutes- last day I waited 20 minutes- there are stairs if you prefer to walk not too bad... - beach- they have full service on the beach with loungers and umbrellas- beach itself is a bit rocky in areas-Overall- this resort has very dedicated friendly staff who really want their guests to have an enjoyable stay. The views are breathtaking and suite accommodations are truly deluxe. You are a bit isolated at this location- nothing is in walking distance- but Ubers are cheap- to get to property from town was roughly $4- $6 each way- note- it often took 15-20 minutes to get an Uber to property for pick up- keep that in mind- Uber ride to airport was $10 for 45 minute ride.. Very inexpensive. If you like amazing views and low key vibe- this place is for you!

We stayed at Hotel Mousai 2/8-2/12 and chose the all-inclusive package. The staff couldn't have been more warm and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed the excellent food, drinks and service we experienced from the moment we arrived until the minute we left. Every day we enjoyed whale watching and playing at the private beach and rooftop pool/lounge. Our room was incredible - very comfortable and included a spacious balcony with a panoramic ocean view and hot tub. I highly recommend this place for a relaxing and memorable vacation. They overdeliver on every level and we loved it.

"Quarantine getaway "

We returned recently from our second amazing stay at Hotel Mousai. We stayed for 5 nights and enjoyed every moment. The hotel is gorgeous, the staff attentive and the food wonderful. Here are a couple of highlights:Rooftop: we spent every day at the rooftop pool. The staff met us with a smile and fantastic service. I want to mention them by name because they were that good. So thank you...Rafael Palomera, Alan, Jesus, Guillermo, Enrique, Gabriel, Gustavo and Ehary. They took amazing care of us. Dont forget to tip them! Spa: we did two 80 minute massages and two Diamond facials. The facility is amazing. Be sure and save time for the water therapy! Dining: Hiroshi and the Steakhouse were our favorites. All the food is fabulous. We enjoyed room service several times as well. Tip: order your breakfast the night before and enjoy it on your beautiful patio. They have a fun tennis and racquetball facility as well that we used twice. Make it a good workout and walk down and back! Rooms: this is our second time with a corner suite. Views are beautiful. We used the hot tub every night! Transportation: use their recommendation! It was super easy and perfect way to not worry about anything. Covid: this is our second trip to Mexico during Covid. We felt super safe. Everyone was great about wearing masks etc. we traveled during the new regulations that require a negative test within 3 days of travel back to US. They make its so easy. On-site complimentary rapid test. They have a doctor on site at the facility.We are already planning our next trip back.

"Hiroshi's Excellent Food and Service"

My husband and I decided to go to Mexico for a long deserved vacation at the end of November 2020. My husband is a picky eater and after day two at this beautiful Hotel Resort, we found our favorite restaurant, Hiroshi! The first night, we ordered a few things, trying to sample in small portions. Our waiter, Abraham, was super patient and never flinched at our requests. We decided to go to dinner at Hiroshi for the remaining nights of our trip, 4 dinners! After the first night, we did not have to order! Abraham brought dishes our way, things that he thought we would enjoy. It was WONDERFUL! We couldn't have asked for better service!!! Most of the food he sent out way hit the spot! We felt so special and well taken care of! Thank you ABRAHAM!

"Must visit!!!!"

Garza Blanca PV is a must visit! I can not say enough good things about each of our stays. The service is impeccable. From the moment we arrived, Darinka greeted us with a smile and answered any questions we had. Booked our covid tests, super easy! The on premise Doctor administered them. The entire property extremely covid safe. The room, WOW, what a view!!!! Every single person at the pool (too many to name) went out of their way to greet us and chat everyday. Offering to get us food and drinks even when we werent in their section. We asked for something a little different for lunch one day at the pool, the chef made it happen and it was só TASTY! All the restaurants on property well exceeded our expectations. Andrea at concierge helped us daily w making reservations and answering questions with a smile. Room service was fast, efficient, friendly and yummy! Housekeeping A+++. Everything to the last person we saw, Joel, the bell man. He treated us like family as he packed us up to head home. Added bonus, all the wonderful people we meet on our stays, weve made true friends there. We were planning our next trip to Garza Blanca while we were still there :)See you soon!!!

Garza Blanca is beautiful, and the facilities are amazing. But it is the staff that puts this place over the top. Rosy was our concierge and could not have been more perfect for us. She respected all of our wishes and was so helpful. Tito took us on a beautiful hiking adventure and took time to answer all our questions. Alvaro helped us with dinner, and was always spot on with his recommendations. There are so many more excellent staff members, but when we come back we will always request Rosy to be our concierge!

"Julio F was a life saver!"

We visited Garza Blanca in Jan 2021 for a wedding of 47 people and was booked through the wedding department for special rates. There was an issue with room service not being included in our all inclusive packages (without us knowing) but Julio made it his mission to help us. Within a matter of 12 hours, our entire group had our reservations adjusted to include room service for those that had an all inclusive package. We cannot express how grateful we were for all of Julios hard work and excellent customer service. We cannot wait to be back!

Im not a person that normally writes a review no matter the experience. On this occasion I do want to comment on how exceptional the staff was at Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta. From top to bottom the service was top notch. The attention to detail is what makes this resort one of if not the best. The food is delicious but I always come back to the great service. They make you feel at home and like part of their family. I would recommend anyone to stay at Garza Blanca.

Great resort, food and beverages were up to par. I'm always very timid with all inclusive as the food usually isn't that good and the alcohol is horrible / watered down, but there were no problems with Garza Blanca, The staff was extremely courteous and very helpful. The beach and pool staff were amazing, very fast, attentive, etc. Hope to go back!

"Best Hotel I've Been to in Mx"

We went for a quick 5 day trip in January. Little slow due to COVID, but the rooms were amazing, couldn't beat the view. Typically when a resort says "ocean view", you get a small sliver of the ocean from one spot on the balcony or room. At Mousai, every part of the room and balcony had full views of the ocean. Loved it!!!The restaurants and food were way better than all inclusive spots. The pool side menus wasn't expansive, but was good, and the drinks were actually well mixed. Only downfall is it is a about a 15 min taxi ride from downtown. But it wasn't too bad getting one and getting down there for an night out. Defiantly would book again!

"Incredible resort and awesome service"

First, I feel bad that I dont remember the names of all the staff who made this trip remarkable, so thank you to all the staff of this beautiful resort.A group of 6 of us came here for my birthday and we stayed in the 2 bedroom Panoramic Suite. This Suite is bigger than my own house and the patio is amazing. We stayed on the 11th floor and the views were unparalleled.We ordered room service quite a bit and Antonio was awesome every time he delivered something to us and was great to talk to.Overall this was the nicest hotel Ive ever stayed at because its clean, luxurious, and most importantly they have the most accommodating staff Ive ever come across.

Well respected and well earned 5 stars! Can't say enough good things about his resort, it's best you try it on for size and experience it yourself. Of course you have to walk or take trolley to beach but no biggie considering it's good exercise. Exercise you will need after consuming all the incredible, tasty food and amazing drinks. The watermelon fresh is their signature drink and man ohhhh man is it good!!!Will definitely make another appearance at this property. Love PV and all it has to offer.

"The property and amenities are amazing. The staff is world class"

This is our thirds time to Hotel Mousai and it has become the only place we stay in Mexico. We love the corner suites and the amazing options we have to either enjoy being social on the rooftop with an incredible cocktail, or having a quite afternoon on our private balcony. The restaurants are top notch and are always updating their menus. We are always surprised by how each one its able to innovate and bring new flavors to the table, while still staying true to the heritage of their individual restaurants. With all that said, Hotel Mousai would not be as special as it is without the people that make it what it is. We are only half way through our current trip, but there are so many people we want to mention and thank for their service. Ricardo (with the front desk staff): You been the one to welcome up on the last two of our trips to Mousai and you make it feel like we are coming home when we drive up. Thank you for always making us feel so welcome, whether it is when we first arrive, or each time we pass through the lobby. Jennifer (Concierge): Our last trip was almost two years ago and you remembered who we were and where we were from. Thank you for always making sure we are taken care of and have everything we could desire. Jeni (hostess at the terrace and rooftop): you are so welcoming and cheerful in the morning at the terrace. Thank you for setting a joyful tone to our day. Mateo (at the terrace): What can we say about you Mateo, other that you have made our stays at Mousai a joy time and time again. You make breakfast at the terrace the highlight of our day. The food is great, but your personality and the way you invite us into such a full experience is the best part. You are honestly someone we talk about all year when we thin back on our times a Mousai. Irving and Jose (at Hiroshi): You two have been so good to us. It was so good to be served by you on Tuesday night and then again on Friday. Thank you for inviting us into a totally different sushi experience that we have every had. Usually we just stick to what we know and like, but you gave us an opportunity to let the chefs surprise us with what they wanted to make. It was the best sushi we have ever had! Frida and

My experience was amazing. The resort not only included phenomenal views and a close vicinity to fun excursions, but the customer service was top notch. Specially, Julio and Jane made my experience unforgettable. Jane was very specific in explaining the different activities and dining available, and Julio was very amazing in checking me and my partner into the resort. He was very hands on and very detailed in making us both very happy. Jane and Julio were both extremely patient and very attentive to our needs to make sure that our experience was beautiful and memorable. It was my first time visiting Puerto Vallarta, and because of the customer service I would totally recommend this resort to family and friends.

I have not had a bad meal since arriving at the hotel mousai. The service at the hotel and especially the sushi restaurant Hiroshi is superb. Abraham and Jose provided phenomenal service. Very attentive but not too much. I dislike it when the waiter is pushy and tries to take the plate as soon as I put the fork down. I was by myself and really appreciated how the waiter asked if I would want half portions so I could try more of the rolls. It was an excellent amount of food and the fish was very fresh. The cocktails are strong. I loved the sewers cucumber salad too. I am staying at the hotel for a few days and will definitely come back to the restaurant again.

"Worth Every Penny!"

My family just returned from our 6 day- all inclusive- trip to Garza Blanca. There were 6 of us and we stayed in a 2 bedroom panoramic suite on the 5th floor of Tower 4. The suite was plenty big and we were able to spread out comfortably to log in for both school and work for the first few days. We had to upgrade our wifi for the days that we needed to work or do online school as regular free wifi was spotty. Everything was else perfect. The location, the amenities, and the food/drinks were amazing. The service was impeccable from the moment we arrived at the resort. I must mention a few names for those who stood out. Erasmo, our concierge, was the best! He took care of all of our dinner reservations, and managed to surprise us here and there with champagne upon arrival and a couple of wonderful desserts sent up to our suite to wish us a happy anniversary. Marisol was our housekeeper and was super attentive, while Tito took care of us by the pool, and Emmanuel upon checkout left us with a great lasting impression of how wonderful this resort truly is.I would like to point out how nervous I was initially to travel here during Covid times, however, their safety protocol was top notch. Other than some guests not wearing masks when walking around in public places, I would say the majority of the guests did. I liked that the employees wore masks at all times and upon entry to any restaurant, they dispensed hand sanitizer into our hands. Definitely felt very safe the entire time.We loved everything about this resort and will absolutely 100% be back again soon!

Spent 10 days at the Hotel Mousai, had an all inclusive plan in a corner suite. It was amazing! The hotel was perfect! The staff and the service was above and beyond! They were helpful, attentive, knowledgeable, and most off all extremely friendly! The concierge team was amazing. We had to get Covid tests done prior to returning home and they made it happen. Booked the appointment, arrangements for transport...all we had to do was show up. Even the sister hotel Garza Blanca, Just amazing! Same thing, staff was amazing and truly went out of their way to make us feel welcome and taken care of. There is construction going on right adjacent to the Hotel Mousai, but the noise level was very tolerable . The food was very good, healthy Breakfasts, tons of snack food poolside and by the beach. The restaurants were also very good.

I also recommend the spa. We went once and enjoyed it so much we booked another massage. Cons: apparently the hotel is so successful they are building another!

"Most amazing room I have ever stayed in!"

We had booked a trip to Cancun, but the weather looked ugly so we switched to Puerto Vallarta and ended up at the Garza Blanca. I am so glad we did! My wife, two daughters (11,9) and I stayed in a 2 bedroom panorama suite on floor 8 in tower 4. It really was the most amazing room I've ever had! The southwest view from the balcony was absolutely bonkers. I could lay in my bed with a wide open door to my right with an ocean view and a hammock, and a wide open door at my feet with a view of Los Arcos. The entire wall in the living area opens up. It was... just... I can't...The staff were so warm and welcoming. Everyone who greets you puts their hand on their heart and gives a little bow. It felt so warm and lovely, especially with masks cutting us off from each other. They are so caring- my daughter slipped in too-big flip-flops on the cobbles and rolled her ankle. She's a little clumsy and this has happened before (also- the flip-flops...), so I was just going to give her some time and have her walk it off. But next thing I know a medic is rubbing a salve on her ankle and wrapping it, and a car is there to drive us down to the lobby to get a wheelchair and hit the pool. Of course she was fine in 30 minutes like I thought she would be, but she felt so cool and loved wheeling around the pool until I made her turn it back in. The service was excellent and FAST. A room attendant was always ready to make up our room no matter what time we left in the morning. Room service would set a 45 minute expectation every time, but then show up in 20. And speaking of room service- the FOOD. I think we sampled nearly all of the food - room service, food service at both pools, breakfast and dinner at Blanca Blue, breakfast and dinner at Bocados, dinner at Hiroshi... all of it was fantastic.We loved the pools. The beach isn't the best for younger kids to play in the waves bc there are still large rocks in the shallows, but they do have a little lagoon that gets gentler waves. We did play there some and there were plenty of others spending more time there. We were able to see whales from the pool most mornings. My daughter and I were going to do the kayaking, but she wasn't feeling up for it at the last second so we bailed. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I have been gushing about it to absolutely everyone I can since we got back. I will 100% go back at the soonest opportunity.

My husband and I returned for the second time to Hotel Mousai to celebrate new years. We were there 1.5 years ago and had an amazing experience and thought with Covid and safety issues this would be one place we would trust to go above and beyond.The staff is spectacular! Carlos Ramos was our butler and made sure every single detail of our stay was incredible.He helped us book our spa treatments which were wonderful, helped with planning our whale watching tour and many other new years eve related details.The concierge Elisa and Jennifer were familiar faces to us from last trip and were very sweet and helpful.The food is incredible, all dinner options were amazing even getting highest quality food at the pool.

"MOST AMAZING RESORT IN THE WORLD....SHHHHH!"

My wife and I are frequent guests of Hotel Mousai. Prior to COVID-19 our hobby was traveling the world. We are fortunate to stay at the finest resorts and are drawn to such. We love a special resort where location, service, food, quality of bedding, amenities etc. all matters. Hotel Mousai excels and exceeds excellence on every level and then some. I don't think there is a more beautiful setting than Hotel Mousai. Hotel Mousai is built in a jungle preserve that is so tropical and gorgeous. The views of spectacular Banderas Bay are magical. The staff is over the top incredible!!! From the moment you arrive you are made to feel like family. Staff members quickly address you by name and remember your likes and preferences. The pool staff is incredible. Dylan, Enrique, Ivan and the floor managers cater to your every whim in a very non-obstrusive way. The hotel manager is clearly respected by the staff and she is very hands on and runs an incredible show. The entire concierge team is remarkable with special thank you to Jennifer for helping make our stay extra special. Our Butler Carlos Ramos seems to show up out of nowhere just when you need him! He can make magic happen and does it so quietly and with such genuine kindness. The entire Hiroshi staff is so welcoming and perfect. Special thank you to Jennifer and Christian. The suites at Hotel Mousai are gorgeous and so well kept. Every time we visit we feel as if we are checking into a brand new suite. Bedding is incredible and I always sleep so well! I have stayed at the Four Seasons Punta Mita. Although the Four Seasons is a beautiful property it can't compare to Hotel Mousai. Hotel Mousai is a class all it's own. Á should make a six diamond category and include Hotel Mousai. Staying at Hotel Mousai allows you to visit the fabulous restaurants in Puerto Vallarta easily. It is only a 10 minute cab ride and 170 pesos ($8) to go into town. Puerto Vallarta is home to some of the most fantastic restaurants. Don't miss Cafe Des Artistes, Casa Kimberly's La Iguana, Trio, La Palapa, Casa Tradicional, Sonora Prime Grill and Le Kliff. I would be remiss if I didn't brag about Hotel Mousai, but worry that this resort will become too popular.....let's keep this very special place a secret.

"Great Adults Only Hotel In Puerto Vallarta!"

Well, this hotel is everything it claims to be! Price is higher than other hotels, but we knew that going in and you will have to make that decision. But we plan to return next December which is saying a lot. WATERFALL HIKE: This hike does not have a trail. You are basically going over rocks and it is difficult. Also, do not wear sandals on this hike. FOOD: The All- Inclusive includes both hotels and it is all chef prepared. Roof Top Pool: You can eat, swim and get drinks here and the atmosphere is very relaxed. We liked it a lot. This is our first adults only hotel, and it was so much better.

"Unbelievable experience."

Unbelievable experience. We recently became owners and had the pleasure of staying at the resort our last 3 nights in Puerto Vallarta. Very happy with our decision to purchase and have access to all the Tafer resorts in Mexico. From our initial presentation with JC and Jeff, to the excursion coordination of Ana, to our royal treatment by Joel our valet, extremely helpful concierge and to every other staff member who took care of our every need. Gracias

"Birthday Getaway "

The Garza Blanca was recommended to us by friends who had stayed there a few months before and only had wonderful things to say about the service and the safety that was being provided due to COVID. It was all absolutely true!!! We were dropped off by the taxi and it was love at first sight with the beautiful surroundings. We stayed in the two bedroom panoramic view. What a view it was, Amazing!!! The cleanliness and safety that was being provided to keep us all COVID safe first class. Had an amazing time, cant wait to revisit with our entire family.

"Excellent Resort - Friendly Staff - Exceptional Food"

Garza Blanca was excellent! My wife and I stayed there for 4 nights in a suite near the ocean with a hot tub/jacuzzi on the balcony. My wife book the resort based upon reviews she had read and we were not disappointed. The place was beautiful and it was kept very clean. The location is great and the beach was never crowded. Overall, very quiet resort, although kids were allowed at the lower pool and were a bit distracting on one of the days. The food was exceptional and the room service was no less delicious than the restaurants. I do not drink alcohol, so the food is especially important to me. Each meal was better than the next and I was delighted with each new restaurant we tried at the resort. What stood out to me the most was the great lengths the staff took to ensure my wife and I were well looked after. I am grateful to have stayed at a number of very nice resorts and I can say that the staff at Garza Blanca was exceptionally thoughtful and their kindness was felt throughout our stay. We had an especially great experience with a gentleman in guest services named Alex T. who seemed to be everywhere. Admittedly, we ordered tons of room service and had many requests of guests services during our stay. I am not afraid to call the front desk with an odd request, question, or whatever, and Alex seemed to be there in an instant with anything we needed, which made the entire experience so much better. If felt like we had a personal butler. We obviously expressed our extreme gratitude to him and everyone, but I could tell his friendliness and hard working-spirit were sincere, and I felt that way with all of the staff.We did the massage/spa package for couples at the resort and it was beautiful too. Make sure you try all of the restaurants. Each one was so different, but the food was absolutely exquisite. I ate a ton, but didn't feel bloated, sick, or gross the next day. Very high-quality products and prepared perfectly. Could not believe all the creative ways they made civiche at the resort. I must've had 20 different types :)We will definitely come back and I hope to see Alex there, as we will be bringing friends and asking for him specifically. Thank you for the wonderful, clean, and relaxing experience! Cheers!!

"Can't get any better!"

We stayed for a week at the Mousai and it was the most luxurious, relaxing, and fun trip - even during COVID. The hotel takes COVID procedures very seriously yet we still had the time of our lives. If you ever stay there, Carlos Ramos is one of the best butlers in the resort. This hotel is fantastic.

"A Must See Resort"

My son booked this vacation for myself and him right before Christmas. We stayed 7 nights. We stayed in a 2 bedroom with panoramic views. Our living room and kitchen fully opened up to the wrap around balcony overlooking the ocean where a couple of mornings we witnessed the amazing whales taking their normal route that day, (mommy's teaching their baby whales)!!! We have been many places, but I must say this was the most spiritual, emotional, spectacular vacation I have personally ever been on. We was first met by Immanuel the Resorts Supervisor. We found favor right off with him and treated so well. He does and amazing job and you can tell he loves what he does. He got us all signed in and our room keys and bracelets for all inclusive stay. Jenny the Brazilian concerige assigned to us has heart and soul for this place and enjoys what she does. There are 3 restaurants right here at the resort. Our favorite was BoCados. We would hit that up for Breakfast and twice for supper and you must ask for Ricardo. I've never been given a purse stand, so when they brought it, I wasn't sure if that is where they place the food tray or what, so Ricardo told me what it was for and we all had a great hearty laugh over that. He is such a wonderful waiter and person . We always wanted outside on the veranda with the views. It is like Fall here around this time, both morning and evenings and then warm like summer during the day so we could lay out in the hot sun 80,s. Breakfast there was so good, we had Mario usually and the camaraderie with the waiters was wonderful to see. Everyone helping each other!! Neither my son or I like sushi, but we had to see what Hiroshi the Japanese Restaurant was all about and oh am I so glad we did. Christian and Franco took care of us. We told Christian our dilemma with SUSHI,so he asked us if we would allow him and the chef, Manuel to surprise us with the dishes. We was all on board for that, so just let me say, we went back again!!!! So IMPRESSIVE, so delicious. I will say this, my son tried eel for the first time and raw tuna for the first time. Premium ingredients make all the difference and my Mahi mahi, oh my goodness, I got it again the second time. A must try, the coconut cake and green tea ice-cream!! This is not like an American cake...enough said. We ventured out once to the Botanical Gardens and Restaurant there. Yummy!!!!I enjoyed the opened church on the grounds and saw amazing birds for the first time, humming birds!! I am just so thankful and my heart is full of gratitude that I was able to experience such a magnificent vacation. Thank you Christopher my beloved son!!! I do want to make sure to include that every where we went around this resort, masks were worn, antibacterial soaps were given upon entering the restaurants and even the lounge chairs for sun bathing were sprayed everything someone left and a new people wanted to use them. Our favorite guy Tito would be down there ready to find us a place we wanted to sunbathe and place towels on our chairs before we sat,something done for everyone, but Tito you are a sweetheart!!! Upon leaving the resort, Ameida and Julio checked us out and wished us well and hoped to see us again. So alittle bit about the airports. Masks worn always other than eating or drinking. Airplanes the same. Getting in to Mexico's Airport you must be aware that once you collect your baggage, you go thru doors that you are absolutely bombarded by sharks so to speak....trying to get you to come to their counters for more than you bargained for. If you have ordered special car pick up or rentals or you just want a taxi, DO NOT STOP, KEEP WALKING, GET OUT OF THOSE DOORS TO OUTSIDE. Those people in there will make you think you have to see them first....DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. HAVE A FANTASTIC VACATION!!!

"Retired "

We stayed at Hotel Mousai to celebrate my retirement. The service is top notch and we owe that experience to our butler Carlos Ramos. He is a genuine good person who made our vacation relaxing and stress free by taking care of all of our needs. We will definitely go back and highly recommend this unique property.

I stay exclusively at 5 star resorts when I travel. Usually a different chain ( Amresorts, Iberostar, etc...) each trip.

The complementary platter in the room to greet us was unexpected but yet delightful. From the beginning to the end was magnificent, the service was amazing, they go above and beyond to make sure your stay and any of your needs are taking care of. They made us feel like royalty ...

"Exceeded every expectation!"

My fiancé and I stayed at Hotel Mousai to celebrate her 30th birthday. I've traveled to many countries and stayed at very nice hotels/resorts. That being said, Hotel Mousai is now my favorite place to stay, exceeding all expectations. There's nothing negative I can say about our experience at the hotel. I contacted the pre-concierge about a month prior to our arrival and arranged for roses, balloons, chocolate covered strawberries and champagne to be set up in the room when we checked in. I wasn't sure what exactly to expect, but they absolutely did an amazing job. The attention to detail was incredible. My fiancé was in tears the moment she walked in the room. The room was incredible. We stayed in the Ultra Mousai suite and the view was unbelievable. The room was extremely large as was the bathroom area that included a vanity area which my fiancé loved. The balcony area is much larger than it appears on the website and provides plenty of space for relaxing or enjoying breakfast while overlooking the ocean. My only advice would be regarding the balcony spa. Make sure you turn the heat up as soon as you get there because it will take hours to warm up.The restaurants were great and I honestly can't say enough about the room service. Fine dining food available to you 24/7. We spent our afternoons at the rooftop pool. One of the most incredible views you'll ever experience. This is where you'll find the infinity pool in all the pictures. Great service, great music, musicians playing instruments day and night. To wrap up this review, Hotel Mousai is definitely above all other hotels/resorts when it comes to the staff and service. It's unlike anywhere I've ever stayed. This includes everyone from the lobby staff, bellhops, room service, waiters, bartenders, concierge. Everyone clearly cares about their jobs and their high level of service. Above all others was Carlos, our butler. Carlos provided us with his phone number upon arrival and it instantly became apparent that he was determined to make our stay as perfect as possible. Regardless of what we needed, whether it was available at the hotel or not, including dinner reservations downtown, Carlos handled it immediately. I can't say enough about his service and attention to detail. We are definitely planning to return to Hotel Mousai, and I will immediately request Carlos to be our butler during our stay.

"Beautiful Resort"

We really liked our stay here. We travel extensively and my wife thought that it was the best room we have ever stayed in. I was very impressed with the hotel staff. The consistency of service was pretty incredible. The rooms were very large and comfortable. Housekeeping service was phenomenal.Only complaint is that the all inclusive is not a good deal for teenagers from 12-17, because they are charged as adults. My suggestion would be to charge for kids from 0-17 or treat 12-17 as a slightly higher charge than kids, but less than adults. We did not do the all-inclusive because the price could not be justified for my two 14 year old girls. All inclusive, in my opinion, is a great value if you drink alcohol.We took a cab into town almost every night for dinner which was easy and cost $8 with tip each way. The bellmen are really helpful getting a cab and giving directions to the drivers.The breakfast crew, especially Antonio, provided excellent service. We ate breakfast every morning at the hotel and enjoyed all of our meals. The beach is a little rocky, but manageable, very peaceful and clean. A few vendors but not even remotely as aggressive as the vendors on the Malecon. The gym is the nicest hotel gym I have ever seen.

"December getaway"

First of all, the property is beautiful and the people who work here are great hosts. The views are breathtaking. The food is decent, we had dinner at the steakhouse Bocados which is very good. The only minuses were the configuration of the studios (long and narrow) which felt a little too tight for our family of four (with two kids under ten), and the longish walk to and fro.

"Great time"

I had a great time with my fiancé during our stay. We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit with a panoramic mountain view and it was breathlessly gorgeous. The room was ridiculously spacious with a large living room, complete kitchen -- equipped with tools you need for cooking 3 bathrooms. The master's bedroom had a nice bathtub with walk in shower. The jacuzzi we had in our balcony added to the superb amenity that this resort has to offer. From the food, amenities, especially the staff and overall experience, everything was wonderful and more than what I could have hoped for. It was worth every penny. My fiancé and I spent a lot of time at the pool and I would like to mention Fernando B. and Ramses for being so helpful and attentive during our stay. This resort is lucky to have hardworking and passionate workers like you guys. We will certainly come visit again.

"Amazing Luxurious Resort!!"

We just returned home from 7 days of all- inclusive luxury at Garza Blanca and loved every minute of it. From the roof- top bar at Hotel Mousi (affiliated with Garza Blanca) to our beach front suite. The food is amazing and you have several restaurant choices. Service by the staff was impeccable. We especially loved the steak house at the base of tower 4, with it's amazing view of the Puerta Vallarta shore line at night and the great steaks and service. We have already scheduled our week for Dec 2021. Masks were worn by every one of the staff and also the visitors while walking around. only when you are seated at a restaurant or in a pool lounge chair were the masks taken off. We had no issue with the restrictions and felt very safe in PVR. Thank you Garza Blanca!!!

"Beautiful Resort "

We recently came back from Garza Blanca and overall one of the nicest places weve been toCheck-inI found this was a bit chaotic and the front desk person was not very welcoming. We had issues with our reservation that they said our 14 year old daughter did not have an all inclusive plan even though our reservation from WestJet said it was. It took a couple of phone calls from WestJet rep who sorted it out for us. It was a bit of a rough start. If you did not book directly with the hotel make sure to call in advance to avoid this hassleRoomWe had the oceanfront 2 bd suite. The room was incredible! The ocean is literally below our balcony overlooking the bay. It had 3 full bathroom which came in handy with 4 adults and a teenager. The room had a full kitchen with washer and dryer, dishes pots etc for people who did not opt for all inclusive.Restaurants There are 3 restaurants, Mexican, Japanese and steakhouse all with beautiful views of the bay. The meals are lovely and good selection for adults but limited for picky teenagers and kids. My daughter ended up ordering room service after. At the Japanese restaurant, if you have 5 people in your party you have to get the chefs menu which I thought was a bit disappointing after our second night booking there. The food was still good but would have been great to eat something different the second night. The steakhouse was our favorite - it had a great variety. ServiceThe service was amazing. Everyone in that hotel wanted to make sure you were having a good time and always make you feel welcome. From breakfast to dinner the staff at the restaurant had top notch customer service - Francisco, Omar to name a few.The pool staff and concierge was always making sure you are having a lovely time - Tito, Jacque and many others I wish I remember their namesActivitiesThe kayak tour and hiking is a must do and comes free. Caesar was our kayak tour guide and I think he went over and above helping out people that had issues with rowing. He towed them back even! The kayak tour was about 50 minutes of rowing so can be physically demanding if you are not fit. Same for the hike to the waterfall, you need to be able to climb and jump over rocks. Its worth it when you get there as the falls are beautiful. Tito our hiking tour guide was very knowledgeable of the area and super passionate about what he does.Overall would recommend this place and would like to thank the staff for making our stay memorable!

"Simply The Best"

Truly paradise! My husband and I stayed in Garza Blanca and every night left the screen door open listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. In the morning a Nespresso machine brewed us up tasty cups coffee. Every single employee that we came across was kind and said hello. Fernando was our man while we laid by the beautiful infinity pool, bringing us whatever we needed. Oswaldo always found our perfect spot next to the pool and set up towels for us on our loungers. At breakfast Antonio and Lorena out did themselves with their service. The beauty here truly makes the experience here unforgettable. We cannot wait to come back!

"Fantastic Getaway to Garza Blanca "

We Just returned from another amazing trip to Garza Blanca. We have visited every year since 2012, sometimes twice, and it just keeps getting better. Although we are not owners, we choose to return every year as we always have a blast. The hotel is pristine and the beach offers a variety of water activities. What I appreciate most about Garza Blanca is the staff as many have been there for years and go out of their way to ensure everything is perfect. On this specific trip Antonio gave us amazing breakfast service daily at Blanca Blue. At the beach Javier keeps everyone safe, and makes an effort to make everyone feel welcome and appreciated. Mosies, Francisco, and Jose Miguel provided fantastic drinks and lunch service at the pool bar & beach. Spa Imagine is beautiful and I highly recommend indulging as there is no other place like it. My massage with Edith was phenomenal.Some reviewers have mentioned the time share pressure. We did not have an issue as we made it clear we were not interested in attending the presentation and it was just fine, as it had been our other 9 visits. Thanks Garza Blanca for a much needed break, cant wait to return in 2021!

"Overall Nice Stay"

Resort: 4/5Room (2 bedroom suite) was spacious and comfortable. The view from the room could not be beat as we were right on the water. The resort was well maintained, clean, and nicely decorated. -1 star in the rating because our room had the previous guests food in the fridge and the mini fridge was not stocked. Both were taken care of promptly. We visited during COVID and felt safety precautions taken by staff was adequate and helped us feel comfortable. Service: 3-4/5Service was overall fine but varied from location to location. The front desk, pool, room service, and housekeeping staff were wonderful throughout the visit. We did not have issues with service at the pool or trying to be sold a timeshare at check in like other experienced. The concierge who we communicated with prior to the visit was nice but upon arrival it seemed as though errors were made with reservation times and the concierge who helped me in person was rude and unhelpful. Restaurant staff was just average at BlancaBlue. Some seemed like theyre tired of their jobs. Food/Drinks: 5/5All the food we ate either from room service, pool service, or at a restaurant was amazing. (We did all inclusive). Better than we expected for all inclusive. It was tasty, unique, fast, fresh, and well portioned. Service at BocadosSTK and Hiroshi was exceptional. Alcoholic drinks were well made and there were plenty of selections. As a note to management, we visited with a small child, and with or without him are always looking for a relaxing vacation. I recommend pool areas specific to guest experience (i.e. a space where my child wont impose on others experience as well as a space where drunk day drinkers can blast their portable stereo and enjoy their time while not ruining the rare moments of quiet I get and was looking forward to by the pool). Overall: 4/5 Would recommend Would visit againHad a great time

"Our FAVORITE Vacation- LUXURY that doesn't break the bank"

First, the resort is gorgeous. The grounds are extremely well kept, lush and beautiful. We stayed in a panoramic 2 bedroom in Tower 4 on the 4th floor. It had such a beautiful view. The hot tub looked out onto the forested hills behind the resort, all else, was views of the ocean. The room was huge and nicely designed. Several different lighting sources so no matter what you had ambiance. The wall was a moveable window door that folded into itself so that you could have open air all day or whenever. We loved that feature. Every detail of the room was top notch, lush plants, marble, thick towels, comfy bed, soft sheets, huge pillows. It all felt very luxurious.Second, the pools and the beach were fantastic. We snorkeled right off the back of the resort and saw so many fish near the rocks! The pool water was perfect and the infinity pools made being in the pool that much more enjoyable. We did the all inclusive option and there were many restaurants to chose from -- all had good food. The dishes were not your average dish but well thought out with good presentation and delicious flavor. One night the chef actually prepared the fish the family had caught earlier in the day and he was very proud to bring the dishes out. It was delicious and a real treat for everyone.Finally, the staff at GB is so professional and focussed on client service and having the customer enjoy themselves, we were blown away. Two families with kids were in our party. We all know tweens, teens and be a little over the top, but the staff was never bothered (or at least didn't show it!) Truly it was the best customer service experiences I have ever had on a vacation.We would love to return and will also recommend GB to everyone we know.

"Amazing, we will be back!! "

The best we have stayed at in Puerto Vallarta by far we will return for sure. The room was beautiful, gorgeous. The view was amazing over looking the ocean. The food was overall great to amazing. The spa was great and beautiful the massage was amazing. The pool is heated its a dream and now it will have to be a must in all future hotels. We chose the all inclusive option and it was well worth it for sure.

"it was THAT good."

I really have nothing to say to better the experience we had, it was THAT good. We met another family there for a friend/family vacation so total was 5 kids -tweens/teens and 4 parents. Every one of us had our minds blown. It was everyone's favorite vacation and we barely left the resort except for one day of fishing on the ocean and a boat trip to Los Arcos.The rooms are so well designed. We were in a panoramic 2 bedroom in the 4th Tower. The views are stunning. We could open up the entire dining and living room to have an open air setting anytime we wished and it was fantastic. Marble counters, comfortable beds with soft sheets and huge pillows, hot tub on the balcony, 3 showers, nice, big kitchen! I loved all of the ways to light the rooms so there was always an ambiance. The resort grounds are beautiful, lush, and well manicured. The pools were clean, refreshing and so pretty. Everything was clean and we all could tell, was extremely well thought out. It is not an "average" resort. It is most definitely high quality in every sense of the word. The customer service and staff at Garza is what pushes the stay into extraordinary. We had 9 people and every single one of us was made to feel that we were special, and that they were working to make our stay the best possible. I have never had that feeling before! This came from everyone from the concierge to the wait staff on the beach, to the guides on the resort hiking trip to the restaurant staff and chef. It was amazing! The staff at Garza Blanca are so professional and I hope they get paid accordingly. We will be back and will recommend the resort to everyone we know!

"PERFECT"

I will forever compare any hotel I stay at to this hotel. The service was phenomenal, second to none. The room was absolutely gorgeous with stunning views. The food was good (truth be told not the very best, but good and well priced surprisingly). My girl friend and I went together and they treated us like queens. I would highly recommend, working on planning a trip back in January with my husband. Definitely has a romantic vibe, but my friend and I had an absolutely amazing time, extremely relaxing. First time I didnt want to leave a hotel to go explore!

"Beautiful ambience and view"

This is a beautiful resort with phenomenal ambience and comfort. The geographical spot is almost unbeatable in terms of view of the ocean and surrounding flora. The palms and tropical plants were I can only imagine what the surrounding jungle looked like before this resort was first built. My wife stayed there for a week in November 2020 at which time the weather was absolutely perfect. We first stayed on the 5th floor in Tower 4 and then, due to a noise complaint, we were upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite in Tower 5. The bed and soft bedding was extremely comfortable, the cleanliness and attention to detail were amazing and beyond my expectations. Food and service at all 3 restaurants at the resort was excellent, especially at Boca Dos Stx. The room service was okay but unfortunately a little slow and inefficient. Signing your tab for each order you place is quite annoying after you purchase an all-inclusive vacation but there was nothing we could do to change it. The pool and beach area is beautiful but the hot tub water temps were not hot enough. Otherwise, excellent resort all around. I would be happy to return here or maybe experience other Tafer resorts next time.

"Mindblowing place with truly great amazing people"

So me and my wife just got here yesterday but not this resort but we might a awesome fun guy at the airport named Chris. He got us all set up with a tour at a extremely mind blowing beautiful resort which is this place. Then we meet the guy who gives us the tour who was named Steven. Cant say enough words about Steven besides hes one of the coolest guys Ive met dude is just awesome. Then Steven introduces us to Jason. And then Jason just blows us away completely with his customer service and just overall a awesome guy who knows his stuff. Steven and Jason are one of a kind dudes and Im not saying what they have done for us but I gotta say this place is already home to us and were forever grateful. People that work here actually care about you and actually truly get to know you. Its a experience Ive never had and my life has been truly rough the past 5 years and this place made me forget about that all day. Thank you so much again and you guys will always have 2 people that will never stop talking about how amazing this place is but truly more about how amazing the people are. Also one more shout out to the manager Jeff that guy added the icing on the cake today that made us feel even more at home so thank you.

"First Time but Not Last."

Went with my Sons family to celebrate his 40th birthday. He found Garza Blanca and recommended we try it. We loved it. Staff was excellent. Service Excellent. Location breath taking. We were in bldg. 5 with panoramic views of ocean and surrounding area. My sons family loved the various hikes, kayaking, paddle boarding etc.. We loved just laying around the pool or lounging in our suite hot tub. Pool staff was excellent. We were lucky that pool near buildings 4 & 5 had just been renovated and reopened the week we were there. Restaurants were great. Food and bar service in pool area was fantastic. Everything was clean and Covid compliant. Construction noise on new high rise next door was a non-issue. Faded as background noise. Highway at bottom of hill was nosier. Planning to go again sometime early next year.

"Wedding Anniversary"

Had to be one of the most rememberable anniversaries weve had in a long time thanks to the Garza Blanca team. Wanted to do this to give a special thanks to everyone that took care of us and treated us like a king and queen the entire time we were there. We love this place and enjoy every minute. Everyone followed the rules for Covid it was actually guests that were not following rules and also pushing some to the limits. Our only regret would be that when guests come to the site they were expected to follow the rules the same way the members are, Every day we would get up and walk from the fourth tower to the beach have breakfast. special thanks to Cecilia and her team at Blanca Blue every morning was greeted like we were coming down to the kitchen in our home. While down on the beach of course we were greeted by our friendly security Javier Suarez. We have been very good friends with him and he always gives us a special feeling and checks on us from time to time.This time we met Israel which always helped us pick a good seat on the beach to get started. Our favorite number one waiter on the beach was Fernando a very nice young man that was very attentive and we struck up some good conversations to help him pass the day. On our anniversary night at Bocados I got to sneak down while the wife was in the shower and gave an anniversary ring to the manager to put something on a plate to present to her. When it was time for dinner I was very amazed at what they did in such a short time, my wife was very grateful as well and they made our experience wonderful !! On most nights we made our way up to the Mussai The top roof to gaze at the wonderful skyline. There we were greeted by Gustavo and his wonderful team to make our time upstairs very nice. It was nice to talk to all of the staff about Covid how their families and our families are doing in the struggles that we are all having to go through to make our trip possible in our family safe. On other nights we would go to the Hiroshi for dinner and were greeted by a pretty girl by the name of Jenny that we remember from our previous trips and she seated us in the best places possible for a sunset. It was good to be greeted and recognized by Christian and Irving who were tag teaming our table just to catch up and talk about Covid times. It was funny to go back and open up pictures from several years ago with the same two young men and always more professional and on point. The chef Humberto made a special drop by our table to say hello and made sure we enjoyed our time at Hiroshi. When dinner was over we didnt wanna leave so we just stepped out to the bar and were listening to the young lady play the saxophone. Our wonderful bartender that was always very polite her name is Yesenia. She made a fantastic Carajillo And a coffee martini that was so smooth and yummy. As always with the terrain on the resort you cant forget to mention your trolley driver Marco this guy was very excited to see everyone get on the trolley with a smile behind the mask and offering to sanitize your hands he explained that he cleans the bus as much as he can between guests. The next morning we went downstairs to go hiking and super ambitious Energetic young man by the name of Tito And Jose Luis greeted us and prepped us for a long hike. The hike did not seem long at all due to the beautiful scenery and the continuous stories about the tour from Tito. Once you get to the beautiful waterfall you get to spend a few minutes there swimming or just taking photos and taking the beautiful scenery in. I have to say If I fail to mention anyone from my wonderful trip forgive me because the entire team was very good and attentive. Thank you all so much continue to be safe and cant wait to see you next year. Love JD and Carmen Marshall!

"Can't Wait to Go Back!!"

We went to Garza Blanca for a family vacation the second week of November. We have four kids, and could go on forever about how great this resort was! The food and drinks are excellent, there is a variety of foods for adults and kids, and one person in our family has food allergies and the resort was very accommodating and had many gluten free options. The drinks were also amazing, they have top shelf liquor, and will also make any drink you want. Aside from the food and the drinks, the service was the best part! The staff at this resort are so friendly and attentive and go above and beyond to satisfy the guests! Our favorite staff members at the whole resort were Alex and Juan at the pool/beach. These two are so hardworking and fun, they truly made our vacation and experience better. Our concierge was Rosie and she was so sweet and helpful! She planned all of our activities and dinners, and was very understanding when we would come to her late day asking for a dinner reservation. She always asked us if there is anything else she can help us with, and checked in with us through out our stay. Another huge benefit of this resort is their amazing kids club. Normally our kids aren't very interested in a kids club, or it costs more and isn't included so we don't do it, but the kids club at Garza Blanca is amazing!! We would have to drag our kids out of the kids club because they were having so much fun! Vanessa and Monica were the two supervisors and our kids loved them so much! The kids club has great activates and a super flexible schedule, our kids would just pop in and out throughout the day for the activities they wanted to do. The supervisors will also bring the kids down to you at the pool or beach at the end of an activity, which saved us parents a ton of time and effort having to go back and forth. We will definitely be going back to this resort, and we can't wait to see our favorite staff members again!

"Glissening Five Diamond Resort beyond measure"

The drive thru downtown was nice but as we were getting closer to Garza Blanca the scenery became more dramatic and awe inspiring as we entered the jungle and Sierra Madres.I was very impressed upon my arrival at Garza Blanca however Hotel Mousai for guests over the age of 18, my full attention was grasped immediately. The studio that I was shown was beyond measure that had a balcony with not a hammock but a jacuzzi as well. The Rooftop boasts an area on the 18th floor with an infinity pool and full bar where one can have craft cocktails and snacks whilst taking in breathtaking views of Banderas Bay and Puerta Vallarta.I cannot wait to return to Puerto Vallarta so I can enjoy all of the amenities of Garza Blanca which will be in the near future.

"Free breakfast package vs timeshare awkwardness"

Trip breakdown:-Pre-visit concierge (treats you like an adult on vacation)-Registration host concierge (treats you like an adult on vacation)-Staff (treats you like an adult on vacation)-Timeshare folks (treats you like a villain on vacation when you say no)Choose your vacation package wisely since timeshare silliness not explained anywhere on any booking websites (ie hotels.com). We don't mind the vip offering concierge gave to us willingly at check-in, but we did not appreciate the timeshare management blaming concierge for misleading us about breakfast presentation on our first day. It was clear we paid for breakfast package...not a timeshare presentation that wastes vacation time. Kinda awkward when you have to see concierge everyday taking blame for timeshare managements misleading us.Other than that...everything else was awesome.That's all I have to say.

"Hands down best MX hotel ever!"

We went to PVR for first time after years of going to the other coast (Tulum/Playa/Cancun) and PVR was much better. Cleaner, beaches with no seaweed and people friendlier. We stayed in the Penthouse at Mousai and the customer service was impressive. As someone that stays typically at the RC hotels we are used to exceptional service, the Mousai to took it to another level. Our butler Ernesto was simply incredible and anything we needed or wanted he handled instantly and always with a smile. The entire staff was incredible again. We will be back 100% for sure very soon.

"Stahlnecker/Garza Blanca Trip"

The Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta was nothing short of outstanding. From the time we walked through the door, to the time we unfortunately, had to leave.....the staff at Garza Blanca were so wonderful to my wife and I. The grounds and the views at this resort were so relaxing and serene. The beach, the pool, the staff on the beach and at the pool were amazing. Oswaldo (at the pool) took care of us EVERY time we came to the pool. He made sure we were setup, and made sure we had service. My wife and I have decided to go to choose Garza Blanca as our "family vacation" spot. We had planned on taking our family to Hawaii, but since staying there, the Garza Blanca will have our business

"The amazing Carlos Ramos!"

My husband Roger and I have been vacationing at Hotel Mousai for 3 years in a row. The views and service at Mousai keep us coming back. However, this year, the highlight of our trip was having Carlos Ramos as our Butler. Carlos is friendly, welcoming and very professional. His attentiveness to details is exceptional! He anticipated our every need, (some before we even realized we needed it). Carlos is very conscious and informative during the every changing regulations with COVID. While maintaining the proper social distancing, he was still warm and friendly. He kept us up to date to any new/or changing COVID restrictions. He is quick to respond to any and all requests regardless of the time of day. He really made our trip memorable this year, and is by far the best Butler we have ever had! We brought guests with us this year and he immediately made them feel a part of the Mousai family as well. Our only regret is that we had to leave, but we will be back! Post trip Carlos has remained attentive with quick responses to some additional information we wanted. Thank you Carlos! We hope to see you next year and every year after that!

"Fabulous vacation in Puerto Vallarta "

I have spent the last seven days in the beautiful Garza Blanca Preserve in Puerto Vallarta. This has been an incredible vacation. The resort itself sits along a terrific stretch of beach and is surrounded by jungle, mountains with the ocean out in front. The staff is friendly and so attentive, the cleanliness and sanitizing being done continually should calm any fears during Covid. The food is excellent in the three restaurants I ate at and the room service offerings are good and high quality. There are several excursions available ranging from hikes to snorkeling. There is also paddle boarding and kayaking. I met several guests here that return every year and I can understand why. I would highly recommend and would definitely return.

"Wonderful Resort"

We stayed here for seven nights with friends; they are owners, but I didn't see anything that appeared like we got any special treatment. It looked like everyone got the same outstanding service that we did. When airline cancellations forced us to fly to PV a day early, the two bedroom suite oceanfront in Tower 2 we originally booked was not available until the second day, so we spent the first night in a two bedroom panoramic suite in Tower 5. On day two the resort offered that we could stay in that suite or move to Tower 2--we stayed in Tower 5 and loved it! Beautiful suite and outstanding service. Everyone at the resort was amazing--from the valet the first day who remembered our names when we saw him days later, to pool staff, to waiters, to the trolley drivers, to our extremely helpful concierge Gloria. Don't stay here if you're looking for a party atmosphere--this is a relaxing, classy location. Also, be advised that the beach area itself is small (if that is important to you). The COVID precautions they were taking made us all feel very safe. There is construction going on, but we heard little from our suite (north side of Tower 5). We had one dinner at Blanca Blue and one at the steak restaurant--both beautiful patio locations; also had a breakfast at each. Food very good and we would have been happy eating more meals here if there weren't so many wonderful restaurants in PV to try (150 pesos to centro). We enjoyed so much we are considering booking on our own when we return to PV next spring.

Had a very romantic time at Hotel Mousai. The corner suites give you panoramic views of the lush jungle and majestic ocean. We had a butler (ErnestoO) who was so helpful during our stay. Anything we needed, he was there. Whether it was setting reservations (and changing them) or coordinating excursions with a relaxing spa visit, he was committed to taking any and all effort off of our plate so we could just focus on ourselves. Thank you Ernesto! Cant wait to go back for our 5th year in a row! -Saludos

"Breathtaking"

My stay at Hotel Mousai was even more amazing than I expected from the pictures. I had a hard time forcing myself to leave my balcony because the view was just so breathtaking. The infinity pool is beyond beautiful especially watching the sunset. And the spa was heavenly. Service was great from the pre-arrival concierge Antonio, to my wonderful butler Carlos to Miguel Alley who was there for all the room service I ordered on my balcony. Clean, not overcrowded and everything youd expect from a 5 star resort. Oh and the sushi restaurant was by far my favorite. Im just trying to figure out how soon I can get back!

"35th Anniversary Trip"

This was our first trip to Mexico, and after looking into many resorts we finally decided on Garza Blanca in Puerto Vallarta. This was going to be the perfect place to celebrate our 35th Anniversary, but it didn't start out to well, because when we arrived our oceanfront honeymoon suite was not available, because of a problem with the jacuzzi the night before we arrived. We were surprised when the general manager told us that because our room would not be available that they were going to upgrade us to a larger suite in their 5 diamond Mousai tower, and once the wife and I took a look at it we fell in love with it. The view was absolutely breathtaking, and we really enjoyed our jacuzzi on our balcony. It was perfect for a romantic anniversary evening. Our concierge, Rosy took care of our every need, and no matter what we needed she would always take care of it, and she even made sure we had a special bottle of champagne on anniversary night when we arrived back from dinner. We loved Garza Blanca, and the service so much that we actually became members, and we can't wait to go back in the spring.

"Really 4.5 stars but a long way from 5...."

This was our first trip to PV so as always when going to a new area, the choices seem overwhelming. That being said, no matter how I evaluated different properties, the Garza Blanca always came up in the top 3. All I knew was we didn't want all inclusive and we wanted easy access to town. We got both with the GB. Checking in was okay until they handed us off to the "concierge" which was really just somebody tried to entice you to take a timeshare tour for $150 credit and a VIP card. They pushed but not too hard and we declined as we always do. We did try and use the concierge for legitimate concierge uses (like restaurant advice, directions, etc...) and they were clueless. Food & Beverages: I guess stymy are used to dealing with the AI crown who drinks constantly and for "free" because they're drinks are WEAK, probably the weakest I've ever had in Mexico. I basically stopped drinking on day #3. The food at the pool was actually excellent (fantastic pico and guacamole) but our meals at the Mexican & Japanese food places were nothing special. In fairness, our friend had the maui-mahi at Blanca Blue and he said it was his best meal all week. Breakfast at Boca were very good but service was slóóóow. One day it took them almost 90 minutes to take our order and get us our food. The rooms were spacious, had excellent ocean views and super comfy beds....so good I'm open the hunt for the same bed from Serta. Employees across the board, like all places we've stayed in Mexico were very polite and always there to help. I hope they are well compensated because they deserve it.

"Amazing Place!"

We changed hotels to stay here! We were at another property much further away from Puerto Vallarta, while it was nice, Garza Blanca just surpassed all the others. The views from the pool areas was beautiful! The pools overlook the ocean, while one is on the mountain side, you still have spectacular views of the ocean. The rooms! OMG! They were beautiful and spacious! Bathrooms were amazing! We loved everything about this place! The staff was absolutely the best!

This would be our second stay at Mousai, the first in July 2020. Remarkably, most of the staff who assisted us in one way or another in July recalled our previous visit and our names. We were provided the same extraordinary service at the roof top bar/lounge and poolside service was exemplary. Any wish was fulfilled by our "butler" from reservations on the property in one of the restaurants to spa time, in-room birthday celebration decor, etc.As per usual, the food was excellent and the corner suite was amazing. Room service was a 10/10 with cleaning, prepping and turn-down service.What an amazing experience and place to stay in Puerto Vallarta

"The timeshare Im going to keep"

I got suckered into owning three timeshares and managed this month, hallelujah, to dislodge myself from two of them. This is the one I want to keep. Yes, they do some pressure sales. Upgrades seem to always be available. Deals always in the offing. But its beautiful, comfortable, a great escape But close enough to the city and the hustle and bustle to enjoy that as well.

I had one of the best massages ever by Luis. He was very professional and extremely good and I would rate him one of the best I have had. If you stay here definitely ask for him at the Spa. The entire spa service including Josue our butler was so great. You will be very lucky if Josue is your butler. We visited the SPA daily for 4 days so we are fully aware of good customer service and both of these employees were excellent.

"Superb Resort with Exceptional Customer Service"

Great experience with staff that makes you feel welcome and actually cared for. This is the first time that I have felt truly valued at a hotel/resort, hence me writing a review for the first time. The other factor that made me want to write this review is that no-one approached me about it. Unlike all the other all-inclusive hotels I have been to, no-one gave me a business card and asked me to write a review. So here is my honest opinion. What I would like to focus on with this review is a specific experience that will make me remember this trip and will stand out as the highlight that overshadow the other experiences greatly. Having said that, I would like to briefly say that everything about this hotel was top notch. From the beautiful landscaping and lavish rooms, to the delicious and elegantly presented food and live music performances, everything gets 5 stars from me. I could go on and on about the great details of everything and how amazing of a hotel it is, but those are things that you may find elsewhere. What you cannot find elsewhere is the people that make the place. And those people make you feel well taken care of. Here is my story of how I felt special during my stay at Garza Blanca. I would like to accord a special "thank you" to security supervisor Mario and security associate Diego. They helped me find my drone that was lost for a whole day in the trees. I was staying on the 11th floor of tower 5 and was trying to film a video of the building in that overwhelmingly green nature with my drone. At one point the signal was lost when the drone wasn't in sight. No luck. No buzzing of the propellers. I took the elevators down immediately, and still nothing. This is when the security supervisor Mario came out. He was with me the whole time avidly searching for the drone in the area behind the building that the GPS signal was last seen on my drone - but to no avail. I would like to point out that this is an area with a lot of trees and bushes that are extremely green and on a steep hill that make the finding of anything extremely difficult. At this point I had lost hope. Diego, the other security associate joined us in our search. Both Diego and Mario were there next to us the whole time shuffling through the thick bushes and the slippery grass from all the rain. It was almost dark outside so we called the search off. Mario and Diego assured me that they would keep looking and that will most definitely find my drone. The next day during late afternoon, while lounging in the pool nearside our tower we saw Diego rush in. Looking at his face, one could tell that it was a textbook example of happiness. The guy looked like he had found gold! Hell, had he found gold he might not have had that look on his face. Needless to say they had found my drone!!! It was stuck in the tree branches. And good thing it did, because otherwise it would come crashing down at terminal velocity after smacking onto a wall from 11 stories high. I would like to stress this just once more. Them finding my drone made Mario and Diego as happy as It made me, if not happier! If you are ever wondering how the hotel staff at Garza Blanca treat their guests, this is a great example. Making the guests happy is what makes them happy. Book confidently!

"Wonderful resort!"

Found this hotel by chance. Booked thru the 800 number, spoke to George and he offered us a great deal on top of a very good customer service. Arrived at hotel very tired and the complaint that we have is that check-in is very slow, they want to give you a presentation on top of it .. after a flight, guests just want to get to their rooms and relax.we stayed in tower 4 .. our rooms was very spacious, clean and just beautiful. Our cleaning lady was Silvia, she was wonderful and very sweet, meeting people like her makes a very good impression of the hotel.used the spa for a massage and it was great, Angel was great and Carmen was my masseuse.Overall I would recommend this place to friends and family. We didn't want to come back home .. We felt normal, Puerto Vallarta is safe, restaurants and bars are open.

"Beautiful resort, outstanding service, fantastic staff, gorgeous views!!!"

Just returned yesterday from a girls trip to Garza Blanca. We had a two room ocean view suite in Building 5. We chose the all-inclusive option which was well worth it. We arrived at the resort and were greeted with drinks and a description of the property and the amenities. We really enjoyed the upper pool close to our building. It was less crowded, relaxing, and the bar staff were friendly, fun, attentive, and accommodating. They were the absolute best. Thank you guys!!! We ate at the steak house twice: once for breakfast and once for dinner. The food and staff did not disappoint. We also ate dinner at the Mexican restaurant. Amazing food and service there as well. We had no problem getting reservations. Just make sure to do so the day prior to or the morning of. Also, we ordered room service often. Again, great service, staff, and food. Our rooms were immaculate every day we returned from the pool. So, thank you to the cleaning staff as well. As far as COVID goes, the resort was very cautious. All staff wore masks. Your bags were sprayed with disinfectant after being handled, and the trolley drivers offered hand sanitizer with every ride. I just cant say enough about Garza Blanca. I cannot wait to go back!

"Beautiful hotel, impeccable service"

We recently stayed at the Mousai and everything from start to finish was spectacular. The corner suite is amazing with view of the mountains, jungle and ocean. The private hot tub on the balcony is killer.I know a lot of people talk about an all inclusive package and it just depends on how you like to vacation. We are a little more explorative so rented a car and was about a 15 min ride into the center of town. Vallarta has so much to offer that I really feel like it is a miss if all you do is stay at the hotel all day. So we got a package that has breakfast included and played around in the city at night. The rooftop pool is beautiful with great views, food, good vibes and great service.Manuel who got our bags and seemed to always be the one getting our car was awesome. Small touches like making sure the air was going before we got in (because it was super hot out) and putting waters in the car.It was truly a special experience!

"A great vacation in September"

We stayed in an Honeymoon suite overlooking the Ocean and Beach in Tower 2. We had a great time listening the waves. Our experience was made better by the fantastic service from the restaurant Hiroshi, Shout out to Jenny, Abraham, Christian and the chefs who made it a great dining experience. The blanca Blue restaurant is great for breakfast and lunch and it was good to see the social distancing that they have between the tables. Oswaldo and Tito who were the activity hosts were very welcoming in organizing Yoga on the beach as well as the Hikes into the jungle. We are looking forward to our next trip where will be staying at the Hotel Mousai.

"Certainly lives up to the AAA five diamond award!"

We stayed in the Ultra Mousai Suite. The room was very well appointed and beautiful. The views were incredible. The service of every hotel staff member from the housekeeping staff to the restaurant managers was top notch. Our butler Carlos was absolutely outstanding! We have stayed at several luxury four and five diamond hotels with butler service and none even came close to the level of service that Carlos provided. He was kind, thoughtful, and went the extra mile every day to make our stay special. I'm sure he attended to many guests during our stay, but he made us feel like we were his only guests. An incredible talent to have in the service industry! We have already planned to go back to the hotel in the spring and want to make sure we get to work with Carlos again. Our entire stay at Hotel Mousai was second to none. Can't wait to go back soon.

"The best place to stay!! "

Just had the most incredible stay at Hotel Mousai. The service was absolutely unmatched! I cant wait to return. The corner suite was one of the best rooms Ive ever stayed in and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The hotel is so luxurious. Softest sheets, heated toilet seat, beautiful balcony, jacuzzi on the balcony. The rooftop pool was gorgeous and the food in the all inclusive plan was delicious! Did not taste like an all inclusive. I was worried about the hotel not being on the beach but we still had plenty of beach days at the sister hotel. All you do is hop on a cute little trolley that comes every 10 minutes and it is a less than 5 min drive to Garza Blanca- you can also use the pool there and its included in the all inclusive plan. The food there was amazing also. Especially the steakhouse for breakfast and dinner. The service was so good- anything you ask for they make it happen. Can not wait to return! Special thanks to Christian at the sushi restaurant, Matteo at breakfast, all the pool staff for mastering my spicy jalapeo pineapple mescal margarita, and Richard with bell service!

"Safe Haven & homecoming feeling!"

These 2 amazing people made our trip to be extremely memorable beside all:1) Carlo: The head host 2) Joel: host/driver We had a shuttle arranged from the airport to the resort as part of the all-inclusive package. Once we checked in and the shuttle was gone we found out that one of our friends has dropped his phone in the shuttle. Without the relentless help of Carlo we would not be able to have the phone back since the shuttle company was third party contractor with Garza Blanca and we had no trace or any clue how to find the driver in time. Another dark early morning we were bound to go for an activity called Ocean Mania. We had a late start and kids were not cooperating so I decided to take a run down to the lobby and call for a taxi while the rest of the family was getting ready. "Joel" met me at the main lobby and recognized me, once I disclosed the situation with him, he assured me that all would be fine and that we won't be missing our activity. Together we went to look for the rest of our people with a shuttle, gathered them all and got back to the main lobby on time. It was a lot of rush on our part, but he made it all possible. Without his help we would have missed our chance and the kids would have been very sad. These 2 incidents made us feel at home and cared for and we will not forget the wonderful time we had at Garza Blanca! The food was good, weather was warm and humid as we hoped for, and the staff super-respectful. The only problem was the sound of the construction that was going on in the near vicinity non-stop!Overall it was a 5/5 experience!

"Mini vacation getaway"

While visiting Puerta Vallarta, I had decided to book a nice Hotel to stay with relatives who live in Puerta Vallarta. We choose The Garza Blanca Hotel because of the reviews. Before I actually booked - I had contacted the hotel several times to inquire about the activities for my young grandchildren. I spoke to the Activities Director named Alex. He said to make sure after I checked in to come see him as he would take "good" care of us. Well that statement was a farce. When I met with Alex and his assistant Oswaldo - the only thing Alex did was walk me to the Kids Club. He said to download the QR code for the hotel and that I could get my itinerary that way. That was it!! He then said - that he had to go. I then said - "you're leaving? That's all you have"? He said yes and walked away. Not a very impressive welcome and start! When I checked in - it was sort of a grab shoot. I really expected to be given some type of direction. and itinerary as to what was going on with the hotel. When I asked - the front desk sent me over to the "concierge". The name "concierge" is a misnomer. I met with a woman named Rosie. She was a nice woman - who was really trying to up-sale me on a VIP package. I asked her - if this was like a time share - and she said no.....but really - it was!! As soon as I found out what it was about - I declined. I thought the "all inclusive" meant food, drinks and tips were included. Not the case. If you want a premium liquor - you pay extra. If you want - that extra steak - you pay extra. Tips are not included. (I do not mind paying the tips though - as the majority of employees are hard workers) Then we soon learned that the activities were limited as to the age group. Also - make sure to book your dinner restaurants early - because they may not be available at the time you want. I'm not going to lie - it was a rough start right from the beginning. Now onto the reason I am rating this a 4 star. The room was fabulous! We stayed across the street on the 4th floor suite. You will have to take a Trolly there - but the wait is not long and the drivers are very friendly. The room was just beautiful!! The housekeeper was very attentive and we enjoyed the jacuzzi and hammock. The Garza Hotel has some very great employees. Many of the staff - after learning about our rough start - made up for our early debacle. I want to highlight Darinha Pena-Front Desk, Orlando Hoil,-Front Desk, Great waiters - Francisco, Tito, Alex and Jose. Oswaldo (the asst to be activity director) was very helpful. I felt they were caring, had good customer service skills and did a real good job listening.. They did what they could to reverse my rough start. The beach area was also beautiful and is nicely maintained. The waiters and bar staff at the beach were very attentive. We did - however, have my son in laws sandals and my granddaughters hat stolen. We reported it - but nothing turned up. All in all - the 3 days spent there was nice. I would go back - mostly because of the beautiful scenery, the gorgeous room and the people highlighted in this review.

We stayed in the Ultra Mousai Corner Suite. Room was incredible. Views on 3 sides, and our butler Ernesto was awesome. We are going back in March and plan on getting the penthouse.Pros- Great Location-Incredible views.The majority of all food was fantastic(we did the all inclusive. Not like typical all inclusives.Surprisingly great gym. Not the typical crap ones at hotels. Was able to do full workouts while I was there.Service was beyond approach. The staff went beyond the norm. We did tip about 250 while we were there and felt awesome about it.Rooftop pool. Great food and drinks to be had.Cons-The steak restaurant was not good at all. Every other one was great.The beach was a bit far, but they had a trolley every 10 mins.

My friends and I had such an amazing time here at Garza Blanca. From the service... the food.. the amenities... the room!!! Their customer service was excellent.

Im not kidding when I say their customer service was top notch! You have to get all inclusive and take advantage of their restaurants and in room dining. Surprisingly the in room dining was just as good. Such a beautiful hotel... I wish we took more pictures there. Thank you for making our stay even better, Garza Blanca!

"wow"

If you read one thing... Don't let the all inclusive option shy you away. It is amazing and you don't have to do it. Although we savored every meal we did eat off site one day and the hotel worked with us to alter our all inclusive plan. The level of beauty, attention to detail, and commitment to service is on another level. The Spa is too. There have been comparisons to the W brand. Although it is decorated in similar fashion I would liken the hotel to that of Belmond or other five star European brands. The activities were included and world class. The pools you simply have to see for yourself.I did upgrade to the higher floor and butler service. In the past, i have never found value in the butler service. This trip made up for that and then some. Carlos Ramos, was fabulous. He added a tremendous amount of value to my vacation and is a logistical expert. He made it a six star experience.Cesar from the kayak, Tito from the hiking, Jesus from the Spa, and Gustavo from security were all top notch.Luxury, luxury, luxury

"The all-inclusive vacation you've been dreaming about"

This property is spectacular! The location is breathtaking, and the 5-year old hotel is kept in excellent shape. But the thing that stands out most is the amazing customer service. The staff is so kind and friendly, and they treat you with the utmost respect. The food on site is fantastic, plus you have access to the restaurants at Garza Blanca (down the hill, take the shuttle, don't try to walk), including beach-side dining. Liquor selection are true top shelf (GG vodka, DJ tequila, etc) and the hand-crafted cocktails on the roof top pool-side bar rival the best I've had in San Francisco and New York bars.

"Honest review during covid "

My boyfriend and I switched to the hotel mousai last minute due to bad weather in Cancun and needing to change our trip. We were blown away by the service we received. The staff is really the reason for the 5 star review, they went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. Room was beautiful. The spa service was phenomenal. The hotel was operating at lower capacity, so Im not sure if we would have a different experience another time, but we never had to wait for chairs at the roof top pool even during peak hours. Staff did a great job with safety but guests not as much, so that was the only negative on that point. We did the hike to the waterfall, which I highly recommend, but I wish I would have known we were hiking in water, I would have worn different clothes. The construction noise was a bit much on Monday but only because we were attempting to sleep in, didnt notice it once we started moving. The food at the rooftop pool was really good for causal food. The rest of the food was above average but not outstanding, but we still enjoyed it. We ordered breakfast via room service every morning, which was great and came right on time. We went down to the beach one day and the service wasnt great, probably just because we were use to the superb treatment we had been receiving at the mousai, and we decided just to go back to the rooftop pool. Overall highly recommend, especially for couples looking for a smaller resort and more personal experience.

"FIVE STAR SERVICE!"

This resort is the best in PV without a doubt. Its a piece of tranquil paradise where the jungles meet the waves. There are so many resorts that have the look and feel but miss it with the service. Not here, GB is special because from the moment you arrive the staff treats you like royalty and makes you feel like your home. The people that work at Garza Blanca make Garza Blanca what it is. Our family just returned from a two-week stay at GB. Weve become regular guests there. All staff takes precautions with COVID-19 by sanitization of surfaces, masks, social distancing, etc. We never felt disregarded. Our kids are doing online school due to COVID, so we thought, do it at the beach. Although we were in our unit most of the day to do school and work, the staff accommodated our every need: plan meals, excursions, and housekeeping at the right time. Every moment we felt taken care of.

"Incredible honeymoon"

From arrival to departure, we loved our time at Hotel Mousai for our honeymoon. The staff were all kind and gracious people--we especially enjoyed Gustavo and he sincerely made us feel welcome and special. We felt like we truly got a luxury experience without feeling pretentious. The beach was great, though we equally enjoyed the pools at Mousai and Garza Blanca. The rooms were well-appointed and the iPad control and smart technology built into the wall switches were neat. The balcony provided a great place to relax and enjoy the outstanding views. Food and drink were spectacular. We enjoyed Hiroshi and the steakhouse the most, though food at the poolside was equally delicious. We paid for tequila tasting and enjoyed our time sampling and learning about Clase Azul and other varieties. All inclusive was definitely worth it for us. We also did the kayaking to Los Arcos, which proved to be a little more strenuous than it looked. Would be worth it for the adventurer, but is not a relaxing activity by any means. Overall a 10/10 experience. We will be back!!!

"Best Service EVER!"

The service at Mousai is unlike any other we have experienced!! Carlos Ramos was our butler during our stay and his attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond really made for an unforgettable time for my husband and I. Carlos made sure all of our dinner and spa reservation were taken care of and changed if need be. My sunglasses lost a screw during our stay and he went searching for a repair kit, instead of coming back saying he couldn't find one, he just went ahead and ordered a kit online!! And to take the all time cake, my husband arranged with Carlos to surprise me with dinner on the beach, a professional photographer, champagne and a room full of rose petals for our wedding anniversary (Im talking rose petals on every edge of the tile, rose petals on the bed in hearts, spelled out "love") It was incredible!!Our room was great, very clean and amazing views!The rooftop pool is like any other... the views, the food, the drinks, the music - its perfect!!The food was excellent! One of our favorite places is Hiroshi and you must sit in Jose section. Super friendly and provided us the best service!All and all this hotel is a must!! Carlos and Jose made our stay amazing and we will definitely be back!!

"Anniversary Getaway"

After a lot of research on resorts, we ended up choosing Garza Blanca for our first trip to PV. We were celebrating our first Wedding Anniversary and wanted to stay somewhere nice and secluded. We opted for the all inclusive option and stayed in the Junior suite. Prior to our stay the pre-arrival concierge reached out with "special pricing" for excursions and the spa. DO NOT BOOK AHEAD. Once I arrived at the airport and met a Garza Blanca rep, they told me I overpaid for the massage by $100. We did opt to do the sales tour for the residences (timeshare) and by doing so received $150 credit. The pricing for the massage was also $100 less than what I paid. The excursion host told me I was better off waiting to book upon arrival. I was very disappointed, and even though I complained to the concierge about it, there was nothing they could do about it. Anyways, the resort itself is beautiful and very clean, tropical and so much more. The staff all wore masks, and were very welcoming. The person who checked us in was trying hard to get us to upgrade to oceanfront, I explained that I preferred to be up higher on the mountain since we would be visiting Mousai . He was pretty persistent on convincing us not to stay there. Maybe for some the oceanfront is better but in our case it would have been inconvenient having to climb up to the top or wait for the trolly. With that said you only have access to Mousai after 7:30pm I believe for dinner at either the Rooftop or Hiroshi. The pool is off limits, spa and gym are open. He then tried to upgrade us to the 11th floor instead of the 2nd, but I explained to him that the amount we had already paid was comfortable for us and we could not exceed that amount. He told us not to worry, he would do something special since it was our anniversary. Well he didn't do anything, we were still placed on the 2nd floor in front of a tree, so unfortunately the view was completely blocked. Their also was not a hammock on the balcony. I had to call 3x before someone finally hung one up. The restaurants on the property were okay. Breakfast was the best meal at all restaurants, and the meat at the Steakhouse was surprisingly better than expected. The service was also excellent! The poolside menu was also pretty good for lunch. We did not have high expectations to be honest. The all inclusive is worth it since the food can start to add up ala carte, especially at Mousai. To wrap this up, we did enjoy our stay. Our room was more than spacious for 2 people. The resort is secluded and in a good part of PV. The scenery is breathtaking. Take advantage of the ATV tours that they can book onsite. That was one of the highlights of the trip! The Spa at Mousai is beautiful and worth checking out! Perhaps we will stay there next time as it is Adults Only!

"Our Butler Ernesto was awesome."

I apologize for the late review. We visited for the week of my Birthday and Anniversary. It was our first time after it being suggested by a friend. Our expectations were blown away. We got the ultra suite package and all inclusive which was perfect. The food and drinks were top of the line great quality. I recommend you getting all inclusive. Our room had amazing views with jacuzzi and hammock included. The service was phenomenal. There was so much attention to detail. During Covid it was great because hotel was only at 20% capacity restrictions so it was a dream no waiting, walk in to some restaurants with no reservations. It felt like it was the perfect week to go. The food was fantastic. I recommend the sushi restaurant. The chef surprised us with a dish he created not on the menu just for us. If you love jazz this is the place. Each restaurant and the high rise pool area features jazz artist everyday. The staff was very warm and helpful. We were greeted everywhere we went. If you love exceptional service and great dining this is the place. Dont forget to check out Rhythm of the Night Show as well. We loved it so much were going back in just a few months.

"Perfect 10"

Id love to keep this hotel on the DL and not rave about the most amazing staff & room but I cant! From the time we arrived, we have been taken care of with endless champagne, craft cocktails and gourmet food. Our corner suite is stunning and romantic with surround sound inside and out, expansive patios with tile zero edge hot tub and my favorite the hammock. If you want complete privacy you will need to splurge for the higher suites we were on the 4th and there is a hotel that has some balconys that face corner suites... we did not mind as we just loved the mtn, bay & ocean view and no one was on patios across from us but for a few hundred more you can get privacy. The restaurants have been the best PV has to offer. The rooftop speaks for itself and the service was just as impressive poolside. We cant wait to return next month for a week

"THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!"

Hotel Mousai is absolutely stunning! From the roof top pool, beach access, dining options, luxurious room accommodations and spa, this place is absolutely amazing! Must try the hydrotherapy sessions in the spa, what an experience! The steakhouse, Japanese and Mexican restaurants were all phenomenal. Poolside and in room dining were excellent as well. Excellent service staff including our butler! We never felt unsafe around other guests during our Covid getaway. Everything is kept clean and their temperature checks when you go in and out of the resort. Close enough of to town, but secluded to the south for a nice, peaceful getaway. The sheltered cove/beach is perfect to be enjoy the warm waters of Puerto Vallarta and the water is clearer further south. I will definitely be coming back to Hotel Mousai, without question!

"Best in class service"

We are owners with the TAFER Group and this is the first time we have had an opportunity to stay at Garza Blanca. We were not disappointed. We were fortunate enough to be upgraded to a 3 bedroom panorama suite. The views were stunning, the rooms were nicely appointed and I love having a hot tub on the balcony. It was a perfect opportunity to watch the evening lightening. Rosa our housekeeper was amazing and so patient with the crazy schedules we kept. Carlos Ramos and Jose Valenzo were wonderful in coordinating everything we wanted to do and checking in with us several times a day. Alvaro and Moises took excellent care of us daily by pool. Esteban in Boca Dos Stk was wonderful and we loved attending the wine tasting with him. Abrahim at Hiroshis was a wonderful server and very attentive. Yvonne and Valeri at the spa made it so we never wanted to leave! The check in and check out process and safety precautions due to COVID were exemplary. I cant wait to bring more family back!

"The best 50th birthday trip for hubby"

My husband turned 50 during Covid so our travel choices were limited. We were suppose to go to Kona but they extended the 14 day quarantine so we had to find an alternative. I'm so happy I found Mousai. I researched all the resorts in PV and after looking at the website and reading the reviews on TripAdvisor it was a no brainier.From the moment we step foot on the property we had huge smiles on our face. We had the corner suite and every inch of the suite was posh. Jacuzzi and hammock (which I spent every night in) on the balcony. View of mountains on one side and the ocean on the other. You can't beat that. It felt like the best of both worlds and there was a vibe that we were in Hawaii. Oh and that rooftop pool was a piece of heaven on earth.The restaurants were all amazing and the service everywhere was warm and friendly. Two servers that stood out (or the names I remember) are Cristian and Jose at Hiroshi. But literally everyone at Mousai and Garza Blanca are top notch.I use to only want to travel to Hawaii over Mexico but this trip converted me.We will be back every year and I'm already planning my daughter's 18th birthday trip to Mousai.

"So wonderful, we're coming back for our honeymoon"

We stayed here a few summers ago and had the best time. From the beautiful setting in the remote nature to the friendly staff to delicious food & drinks - we loved our stay! We also did almost all of the activities around the resort and recommend the complimentary kayaking trip, incredible!So much so that we are coming back for our honeymoon. Wee booked directly with Yesenia from Garza Blanca who was very helpful and found us better deals than we could find online. We are so excited! Thanks Yesenia!

"Amazing hotel - we will be back! (visited during COVID)"

Overall, the best hotel we've stayed at in Puerto Vallarta! It is in a great location and is top class. We stayed from the 5th Sept to the 10th Sept over Labor Day long weekend. We will definitely be back like the many others who were there on repeat visits. Overall here's our hits and nits: HitsWe stayed at both the Hotel Mousai and the Garza Blanca this trip - due to availability over Labor Day weekend (first day only at the GB). The Mousai has vastly better service than the Garza Blanca, the rooms are much nicer, and there are more restaurant and amenity choices.Great level of COVID protection. Masks and sanitizer everywhere. We were never worried for a moment. The rooftop infinity pool, bar, food, and service are unbelievable. We spent a significant amount of time there during the day including watching amazing sunsets. SO GREAT!!The steakhouse has an amazing two-pound lobster that is enough for two. So sweet!There is an abundance of pools and choices to hang out. The beach front, while a little rocky as you first get in (wish they would groom that a little), is super warm and very sheltered. The breakfast at the Terrace is fabulous with lots of healthy choices and delicious bacon and egg-based breakfast stuff. Yes, you heard that right - bacon. Mmm.Even the standard rooms (like we got) are fabulous - super modern and bougie with a hot tub on the balcony. 1000 sqft and quite spacious. Bring mosquito repellant in case you want to sit out at night. While not bad, I got a little bitten.The Mousai seems to be in a sweet spot for the weather - we watched as it poured rain in the evening in the main part of PV and further out west while we got nothing, for some reason we just seemed to get less of the rain than other places did. It generally rained at night when we were asleep. It's that time of year but didn't faze us at all. There were at least 6 couples we met that were on their 4th and 5th stays at the Mousai - it's that good. If you want to go do jetskiing (along with other activities), book with the people on the beach. They were great! But bring USD with you before you leave! Bank on about $150-$170 for two jetskis for 45mins. Do NOT book through the hotel - you'll pay more, and they will make you go into town to the marina (30min taxi) rather than getting picked up directly at the hotel. And then you're stuck on a pre-canned tour thats boring rather than going where you want. Plus, you can negotiate the price better too!I see people complaining about the construction. It's not loud and not a big deal. Get over it. They are building a second Mousai tower which will make this place even better!Quality of drinks at the Mousai was amazing - top shelf, top quality, top service. The gym is top class also - we used it a lot. Great range of cardio and weights equipment with an amazing view!Nits (which are purely about the restaurants)Theres not a lot of restaurants in the short term - so bank on going into town if you are staying for a long time and want some other choices. Theres a Mexican, a Japanese (sushi and sashimi mainly), a rooftop pool bar (serves lots of food during the day, small tapas plate in the evening), a terrace breakfast place, and a steakhouse. The current Italian is closed at present due to low season. The new Mousai tower which opens in about 6 months will have a new Chinese place and an Italian. Yay! The Hiroshi has some top-quality sashimi - but only if you specially ask for it. What's on the menu is not really sashimi as it's seared and drowned in some weird sauce. Its very sushi and sashimi focused - not a lot of other Japanese choices which was disappointing. The service at any of the Mousai restaurants is fabulous but be prepared for long waits at the Steakhouse (which is part of the Garza Blanca). SUPER slow taking them 2 hours to get food to us. While nice to have live music, theres an overuse of live saxophone in the restaurants that is a bit loud instead of being background music - and its piped over the audio system. Started to get a little annoying so we asked for tables away from it as much as possibleBecause this is an "optional all-inclusive" they bring checks for you to sign, even if you're on the all-inclusive plan. We really hated this. The reason we get all-inclusive is to not even THINK about how much food costs. While we tipped, we don't want to worry about tips either as we want to assume (like most countries in the world) that the staff get paid properly. Stop making us sign a check! Would prefer they just had the rate a little higher and did like Cancun does where all-inclusive really means all-inclusive (of tipping too). Lastly, even on "all-inclusive" there are some things which are not included but which are discounted. These just coincidently happened to be the dishes we wanted the most lol. This was pretty irritating. Separately, given this is COVID theres a lot of people worried about the airlines, airports and customs in and out of the US to Mexico. None of this is a worry provided you do it right. United and American are PACKING the airplanes and not doing social distancing. Other airlines such as Delta and Alaska are doing this way better with blocked middle seats. While they may be slightly more expensive, how much is your health worth? Customs into Mexico and back to the US was a non-issue. No issues whatsoever. PV airport was also very safe and clean.

"PARADISE and MORE"

We got married in August and had plans to go to Kauai. Due to COVID regulations, we had to have a last minute change and settled on Garza Blanca Resort. Let me tell you, the website DOES NOT DO THIS PLACE JUSTICE! I travel a lot, and this was the absolute best place I have ever stayed. Our resort concierge called us before our arrival to help us arrange transportation, which we purchased with GB (highly recommend). Most of the resorts in PV are tall buildings situated on the beach, and that's it. Garza Blanca though, is a tropical paradise. The second we arrived we were blown away! You are welcomed happily by the concierge, and welcomed into a GORGEOUS preserve. Not only does this resort have a main building on the ocean, but they also have 11 acres of private land which you can access by private complimentary trolley or by walking over the bridge. Every inch of the resort is in pristine condition. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite and were NOT disappointed!!!! Our room was huge, the hot tub on our patio was clean, looked brand new and was such a fun treat in the evenings. Housekeeping came twice a day, and the room service was spectacular. GB does a wonderful job of providing a peaceful and relaxing vacation. The restaurants, especially the steakhouse Bocados are amazing. The cobblestone streets throughout the preserve make you feel like you travel back in time. The food is AMAZING. Bartenders are phenomenal. I had some health problems while on the trip, and the resort medical doctor saw me immediately, and was able to arrange for a prescription to be delivered to me at the resort so we did not have to leave. We cant say enough!!! If we ever go back to Mexico we are definitely going to PV just so we can stay with Garza Blanca. We miss it so much!!!!!Another P.S... One of Puerto Vallarta's bigger attractions is Los Arcos. We had a perfect view of them from our suite. Like literally, it's RIGHT THERE. We took the Garza Blanca kayak tour (free) one morning and our guide Cesar was awesome. We kayaked out to Los Arcos and went snorkeling. We saw some sting rays and lots of fish. We met a few couples who also participated in the morning yoga and loved it! We could rave on and on about this place. It definitely deserves 10 stars!

OMG, this hotel is amazing! Im a beach lover so I was a bit disappointed to learn that they did not have a beach, well not one with clear crystal water at least but that didnt matter. The corner room which I had was perfect! The fridge looks like a huge treasure box and its filled with nothing but premium alcohol. The food upstairs by the pool is delicious and the view OMG... go really early in the morning to take pictures... We had the all inclusive which I def recommenced. The food is amazing !!!!!!!!! The room even has a sex chair in it. Its super romantic and exotic at the same time. OH and the HOT TUB out side on our patio was EVERYTHING !!!! This is worth every penny. This is great for peach and quite in luxury

"Beautiful setting, amazing food, spectacular service."

Not many places I would be willing to go back to (life is too short) but Hotel Mousai was one of them. In fact I went back 3 weeks later. Franciso(?) and Paulina greeted us with professionalism and grace. Ernesto was my private Butler (standard with "Ultra suites") and went out of his way to make our stay exceptional. Cristian Eduardo, Jose and Irving at the Hiroshi restaurant took us through an Omakase experience that was out of this world married to exceptional cocktails and topped off with a birthday celebration. Kudos to the chefs and bartenders who all made this happen. If I could mentions them by name I would.The roof top pool spans amazing views of the entire bay. The outdoor accommodations were amazing, comfortable and complemented by staff who ran their butts off making sure every guest was cared for from town service to drinks to amazing roof top food. The roof top kitchen was out of this world. My many thanks to Ignacio, Jose Ivan, Guillermo, Alberto, Cesar Alejandro and the amazing bartenders at the roof top pool for pampering us all day. Make sure to grab some breakfast at the Terrace. Miguel Angel and Jesus will give you some wonderful recommendations and amazing memories as they started our day off with a smile, a laugh, and delicious food.The rooms are out of this world. We stayed in an Ultra Mousai Corner Suite. If available, the north end has great view of downtown and avoids the tower construction going on behind Mousai which is not bad.

"HIGHLY RECOMMEND"

Had the most amazing time celebrating my boyfriends birthday here (even though he visited 3 weeks before, it was so good he had to come back). We had the ultra mousai corner suite on the 11th floor and the views you cant beat! Our butler Ernesto is so sweet and went out of his way to make us feel special and at home! Usually when I think of pool deck food I think burgers and fries but this place has a variety of fresh and tasty food! Highly recommend the Agua Chile dish and coconut shrimp if you love seafood! I loved doing the all inclusive choice, the portions are small but were perfect because we wanted to try everything, which we pretty much did by the end of our stay! The food at Hiroshi is to die for, we stayed 3 nights and decided to eat there twice because they had so many options to pick from. Ive been to a lot of Nice sushi places but this one is by far my favorite. The service, presentation, views, and unique flavors..you really cant find anywhere else! Favorite dish was the hamachi sashimi since it had truffle oil and favorite drink was the totori(must trys).Our servers Christian and José at Hiroshi restaurant made us feel special and had amazing recommendations.

"AMAZING FOOD!!"

Garza Blanca has has the best food of any all inclusive resort I have ever stayed.The quality, taste and attention to detail are top notch. The sushi restaurant is 4 STAR all the way! I am a foodie and this is saying a lotThe accommodations we not bad. I stayed in the lower older building and liked it a lot. Moved to the newer tower on the hill and was not a fan. The conjoining doors are paper thin, and was able to hear my neighbors throughout the night.The second pool on this hill was very enjoyable with amazing views. If you plan on day dreaming and relaxing by a pool I would not utilize the lower pool which is full of floaties and screaming kids!Overall not a bad stay. Special shout out to Wendy and Nayeli who went above and beyond with amazing customer service throughout are stay!

"5 Star Experience"

We decided to take a last minute trip to Puerto Vallarta not having high expectations but Garza Blanca made our trip without even booking at the resort. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE YOU MAY ASK??? READ BELOW.After getting off of our flight we were greeted by a welcoming guy named Carlos who offered us a free cab and discounted excursions if we took a tour of a 5 star resort. We didn't have any commitments or time restraints so we decided to book a tour of Garza Blanca the next morning at 8:30 that included a comp breakfast.We were greeted by Carlos who picked us up from our resort and dropped us off at Garza. We were then greeted by the staff wearing mask due to Covid which made us feel safe a comfortable. We were then greeted by our tour guide Horacio who was absolutely amazing! We had a breakfast with stunning views then did a tour of the estate.We finished our tour and with the convincing of Horacio decided to invest in the residency club that we were NOT Expecting to buy but after touring the resort and our welcoming experience with the staff we were SOLD!We cannot wait to visit all of Garza Blanca's Resorts and want to thank the staff of Garza Blanca PV for the most amazing experience you guys made our TRIP! See you all soon!

"Mousai Does it Right"

This was our second trip to Mousai and the first during the pandemic. Anyone worried about how a first-class resort handles Covid-19 should be comforted by how Hotel Mousai approaches it. Their safety protocols are top-notch. From everyone on staff wearing masks, to the hand sanitizers readily available everywhere you look, to how they clean and sanitize the suites and common areas, Mousai does it right.After being here before, we already knew how the hotel approaches cleanliness, but they have taken it to another level. My wife and I felt completely comfortable.As to the stay, what can I say? The service was five star excellent. The food at Hiroshi, Blanca Blue, Bocados STK and the Terrace was good. We were paid a little extra attention because we were Mousai veterans and it was my wife's 50th birthday. Thank you Ana and Jennifer from Concierge and Gabriel from room service for your help in making her birthday visit extra special.I also want to single out all of the others who helped make our trip great:Terrace: Angel, Poolside: Eduardo, Jhanko, Ignacio, Alberto, Ivan, Jesus, Enrique and Marco the bartender(Marco made us some amazing original cocktails and tequila shots)Hiroshi: Jenni, Franco, Jose, Cristian, GustavoBocados: Esteban, Daniel, Xavier, RuebenBlanca Blue: Eduardo, LorenaSpa Imagine: Andrea, Edith, JosueEach and every one of them were amazing.

This resort was extremely nice with a beautiful view of the ocean and the jungle behind it. The resort was super modern and comfortable to be at. However, my favorite part of the trip was the service that I received from the staff members there. The waiters and butlers were extremely helpful and so were the activity workers. The worker that I spent most of my time with was Miguel Lemus who made sure that I was always taken ah care of and was very open and welcoming whenever I came across him. Highly recommend this resort and I look to return in the near future.

We booked an Ultra Mousai Corner Suite for one week to celebrate our honeymoon which comes with the all-inclusive benefits of their ULTRA package.

In our 6 days on the resort, we only had EXCELLENT experiences with the staff, the facilities, and accessing all our ultra benefits. There are tons of options for how to spend each day. We preferred to begin each day with in-room dining on the terrace overlooking the sail-boats gliding through the bay. For the mornings, we'd hit the spa or the outdoor activities like hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming in waterfalls, etc. The staff on each excursion was amazing! Oswaldo, Sergio, and Julio were awesome!

Every afternoon was spent on the rooftop under a cabana and swimming in the beautiful infinity pool overlooking the bay. We ordered fresh food and amazing drinks while soaking in the sun. Alberto, Ivan, Enrique, and Rigo took excellent care of us during the afternoons and made the whole experience fantastic.

Finally, our butler, Cesar, made sure we made the most of our trip, he helped us plan sunset dinners at Hiroshi and Bianca Blue, organize our hydrotherapy at the spa, utilize all our services and more. Everyone at Mousai was very friendly and super helpful.

I cannot wait to bring some friends next time!

Hubby and I chose Hotel Mousai as our special celebration destination and we weren’t disappoint. Our room had breathtaking view, hotel facilities were great and we enjoyed the services they provided. Restaurants have good ambiance with top quality food. Rooftop pool was great but our love was the beach. Beach is relatively quiet for most of the days. Food at the beach was awesome and we really appreciated all the help and care from the attentive beach attendant Javier!! :)
We ended up ordering room service for most of the mornings so we don’t miss out on the great view from our terrace. Miguel (aka Brad Pitt) always made sure everything is setup perfectly for us to enjoy :)

Overall a great stay, with varieties of restaurants and activities! :)

My Husband and I stayed at Mousai for a week over Valentine's Day and our Anniversary. We had a corner suite on the north end of the building. Even tho we were only on the 2nd floor the views from all balconies were amazing. We also chose to do the AI and were very happy we did.
We have been traveling to PV for 25 plus years on a regular basis. Having stayed AI resorts, non AI as well as condos. Hotel Mousai is in a category all by itself. We feel it's not even fair to compare other resorts we've stayed at to it. That's not to say we still won't stay at some of our old favorites, but when we want to stay somewhere special we will chose Mousai.
Every Employee we encountered was helpful, engaging, pleasant and more than willing to do whatever you needed.
Our favorite of course is Miguel (Brad Pitt). He currently works delivering room service. He's incredibly efficient and hard working. It is my hope that someday Miguel will be on the rooftop as a pool server. He surprised us with champagne on our anniversary, picked out a special bottle of wine for us on Valentine's Day, and even came up to our room to say goodbye on the day we were leaving. He and his captain Raphael prepared a special dessert complete with mimosas.
The food at all the restaurants we ate at was very good, fresh and well presented. Hiroshi being our favorite, we ate there twice. Even tho we did AI we went into town 3 evenings for dinner. But we still felt we got more than our monies worth by choosing AI.
Must also mention how wonderful the rooftop bar is. We had phenomenal service from Alberto, Polo and pool attendants Alan and Rico. The bar tenders throughout the resort make amazing top shelf cocktails with fresh ingredients.
Really the only thing we believe could use improvement is the Lobby area. It's somewhat sterile feeling/not very inviting. The small bar there serves the lobby and Hiroshi. Those guys work their tails off. With only 5 seats at the bar it almost seems an afterthought. Perhaps they could add another bar to the lobby as well as more seating that would be inviting. It would be a nice way to meet up with people before or after dinner.
Cannot wait for our next stay and to see Miguel's smiling face!!

My husband and I were lucky enough to spend 12 incredible days at Hotel Mousai. I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. The food is wonderful. The suites are spotless and huge. The staff is absolutely amazing and we did not want to leave. I’m already planning our next trip there. It was unlike any other place I’ve been. We felt totally pampered and appreciated as guests. I HIGHLY recommend Hotel Mousai as a couples getaway. It’s very romantic. Seriously, paradise on earth!

As we think on our trip to Hotel Mousai and the wonderful facility and its staff, we want to say a sincere thank you for the memory of a week spent in paradise. From our pick up at the Puerto Vallarta airport, to our check in with our Concierge Jennifer, to our butler Ernesto, to our beautiful Paulina making reservations for us, to our waiters Matteo, Angel in Hotel Mousai's breakfast "jungle", and Angel Corbain at Blanca Bleu to our pool attendants and maids, you all made our stay so very effort free! The facility is gorgeous, the spa outstanding, and we found our experience far exceeded anything or anywhere else we've ever been. The whales even were evident this final week in February. We will return soon.

This is one of the best resorts I have ever been to in my life. The service was off the charts, the views were amazing, and the people were kind. The rooftop pool is a masterpiece for relaxation and soaking in the sun. I loved our ultra mousai suite and the resort has everything you could ever want from an all inclusive. We can’t wait to book our next trip. It was the perfect romantic getaway in the middle of winter.

We have to give some shout outs to Ernesto, Rigo, Manuel, Angel, Jesus, Josue. There are many more that made our stay awesome, but too many to mention. Loved this place and the breathtaking scenery, but I loved the people even more. Do yourself the ultimate favor and boom this trip today. You won’t regret it.

My wife, daughter and I completed a 6 night stay at the Hotel Mousai. It was almost 2 years since out last visit and we can honestly say the second time around was as good as the first. The food, facilities, and especially service oriented staff helped create another incredible and unforgettable vacation experience. Special mention for infinity pool attendant Rigo, Hiroshi wait staff Jose, and Terrace server Mateo for their extra attention during our interaction. These three individuals are part of the reason why the hotel maintains a 5 diamond rating.

First off, I'd like to say this hotel may not be for everybody. We've stayed at a fair amount of all inclusives over the years for weddings and other events. I'd say Hotel Mousai sits a bit more on the quiet/romantic side vs the a party atmosphere that you find at a lot of the other all inclusives.

I enjoy both, but just wanted to note what people are getting themselves into.

I guess we'll just list off what we loved first

Rooftop pool and lounge area. Really, this is the vast majority of what this resort is about. If you're not into hanging around the pool for most of the day, I'm not sure if this hotel is the right spot for you.

If you are, be prepared for an amazing experience.

We often arrived around 10:30AM and still found a selection of poolside chairs available. As soon as you arrive, a staff member will ask you where you want to sit and will setup several towels and a headrest on each seat. Each seating area is spaced with enough room on both sides for each person to have a room for a food and drink tray.

After that, the day is pretty much up to you. We often stayed around the pool from 10:30AM until around 5-6PM in the evening. Staff approaches you often to check on your drink and food options/desires.

The drinks are quite good and we particularly enjoyed the Paloma (or several). It was nice as the drinks weren't overly sugar filled and were quite pleasant to drink and look at.

The poolside food menu is large and offers a few dozen options of things to eat poolside.

The infinity pool is quite pleasant as well. The water is heated so it's easy to hang out in morning/noon/evening.

The pool was never overly busy either. I can't think of any day where we found every seat in the rooftop section taken. The music was enjoyable, but not too loud. The entire experience was built around enjoying yourself in a fairly quiet and luxurious expeirence.

We ended up cancelling our excursion to town as we simply enjoyed the pool experience so much.

The Room

Rooms were quite large and spacious. We stayed in a corner suite and enjoyed the balcony most of the mornings. The bed was extremely comfortable and we often found ourselves naturally sleeping in a bit.

Honestly, the best part of the room was the room service iPad with full menu and easy ordering. Every morning we ordered a large selection of items to the room, through the iPad and just sat in bed and ate and drank and enjoyed the view until we were ready to go to the pool.

The only (minor) complaint with the room is the bathroom. This is a fairly common occurrence in any 'luxury' hotel. Typically bathrooms sacrifice privacy for better aesthetics. A choice I understand, but isn't always the best for privacy. A very minor gripe for a great room experience.

The Food

I think food is always a tough item with any all inclusive experience. I don't think you're ever going to get as good of food at any all inclusive resort as you could get at a mid to mid/upper scale restaurant back home.

That being said, Mousai had the best food I've had in an all inclusive resort experience.

The variety was good, the flavor was good and the Japanese-style restaurant may even go a tad above good good and may be somewhat great with some dished. I'd highly recommend the Japanese restaurant as your 'main' restaurant for any event your celebrating.

The steakhouse was pretty good and the sister hotel 'Blanca Blu' was pretty good as well. As I said, the true standout is the Japenese resturant, by far.

The Ambiance

As I mentioned earlier, this is a bit more of a chill/romantic experience. You don't really find the loud lobby music in the evening, tons of people drinking at several bars and talking loudly and dancing. I like those experiences as much as anyone else, but Musai is very much an experience focused around relaxation.

We came on the trip to get away from a very busy personal/business life and the relaxation vibe was exactly what we were looking for and perfectly 'on point'.

Overall, we'd definitely come back. I say that as a couple who tends to like to travel and try new things most of the time. The rooftop pool and overall hotel experience makes it something we'd be more than happy to return to. We even met a few other mid 30s couples around our age and had a good time socializing and hanging out with them for a few days.

As a final note, we went the all inclusive route and found that we definitely got our value out of it (as we tend to indulge quite a bit more than we might back home).

The only difficulty with the all inclusive is that tipping is still part of the process and you will receive a 'normal' bill. This was a bit confusing at first but I realized they may have just included the non-inclusive bill so you have a better idea of what to tip.

Anyway, in the end, highly recommended. The price is higher but it all depends on what matters to you. For us, we'd rather spend a bit more and stay a night or two less and get a lot more out of the experience. Enjoy!

My husband and I spent 5 days at this amazing hotel and we were so sad to leave. Great views, rooms, spa, and exceptional staff! We saw the construction going on but we hardly ever heard it, and when we did it was not bothersome at all. The staff and service truly is fantastic, starting with Hector at check-in, Jennifer our concierge, Miguel, Matteo, and Jennifer at the terrace for breakfast (try the passionfruit mimosas!!), Abraham and Mel at Hiroshi restaurant, and Marcela who kept our room sparkling clean! I would definitely recommend getting the all-inclusive as well as the round trip transportation (you get hounded at the airport for transportation and time share selling from other vendors so it’s nice to just skip through all that and already have transportation set up). The rooftop gets busy in the afternoon, so if you want a chill time at the pool I would recommend going in the morning after breakfast. We went on the hiking advanced excursion and Tito was awesome. When they say hiking advanced, they aren’t kidding - it was an intense hike so I would suggest doing the river/waterfall one if you aren’t in great shape. We will definitely be back!!

Just returned from our vacation, our third visit to this site. Wondered if it coild live up to our previous visits, and in fact it was even better. The property is beautiful and well maintained, but the service level has actually been moved up a notch.
Our personal butler, Cesar Joya, met with us every morning to ensure our needs were met. He arranged restuarents, cabs, and visits from our friends.

We stayed here for 3 nights from March 16-19. Both of us are in our early 30s, past our partying phase, so we just wanted to relax and get pampered.

Room:
We initially got the corner room but upgraded to the ultra mousai corner one. The ultra cost us about 95 dollars more per night. It made us have a butler, pillow menu, aromatherapy and the highest floor available on check in. It made us have access to the hydrotherapy circuit at their spa as well (more on this later). Was it worth it? Being it was our first time here and we just wanted to be pampered, I think it was worth it if just for the views. The other stuff were pleasant add-ons as well.

First off, the room is huge! Being a corner room, we got 2 sides of the room open up to the ocean while the other side gave us a gorgeous view of the mountains at the back. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows were equally as lovely. The toilet seat was heated (made us want to install one in our bathroom after this) and aside from the usual toilet paper, it had a bidet which was a very welcome addition as well.

Outside, there's a patio with loungers and a heated jacuzzi where we would just lounge around for hours, waiting for magnificent sunset view to come.

Food and Drinks:
I think this has been one of the best highlights of our stay here. For breakfast, we would usually order room service while admiring the sunrise/bay area. I'd recommend their eggs benedict as well as banana pancakes. We would then be at the rooftop pool for lunch. You can't go wrong with anything you order there. I loved the chicken pops as well as the octopus skewers. While the above mentioned food might seem basic just by looking at the names, the hotel was able to elevate them so that the quality is one that you may see in restaurants. Their seasoning/spice were very much on point as well. For dinner, we ate at hiroshi for the three nights that we were there. I have to say thati was impressed by their food there. I'd recommend the sauteed crab and new york ponzu sashimi as starters and the duck magret, ribeye wasabu, and catch of the day for mains. Their sushi rolls can be a hit or miss.

Cocktails can be ordered in-room, by the pool or at hiroshi (served by the lobby bar). All three have different offerings and we only got to sample the ones at the pool and restaurant. All of them seemed elevated and not just your usual sugary flavored drinks. My favorites are the caddilac margarita by the pool and the groovy, or the totori margarita at hiroshi.

There are other restaurants at garza blanca that people staying at hotel mousai can go to as well but we elected not to since we've heard just great things at hiroshi and mixed reviews especially when it comes to the difference in quality when you go to the other restaurants.

Pool/beach
The rooftop pool is just amazing! Whether we went there in the morning, noontime or in the afternoon, there were always loungers/ cabanas available. This is in stark comparison to other resorts where you have to play the towel game and such. The view is also amazing as it gives you a sweeping view of the ocean from a high vantage point. It's adults only and the environment is more of a chill, relaxed one rather than a party type. They have 2 other pools as well down by garza as far as we could tell but we didnt get the chance to stay there.

The beach, being in puerto vallarta was a bit small and a bit rocky especially when compared to cancun. To be honest though, the rooftop pool made up a lot for this lack of beach area.

Spa:
Staying in an ultra suite, we had access to the hydrotherapy at their spa. It was really relaxing to undergo their circuit. I had a massage afterwards as well and it was really worth the price which was not that high compared to the ones back in USA. The quality though was over the top from the cleansing foot ritual at the start to the almost feeling like you are in a cocoon at the end. I left there feeling like a new person.

Service:
This one I think really makes this hotel shine. From the welcome drink and cold towel that they gave us when we arrived at the hotel, to the caring aura that they exuded whenever we interacted with them, I could tell that they really wanted to give us a wonderful experience while staying here. Whenever there was a small hiccup in the room, they responded really fast when we alerted them about it.

In terms of the daily activities, we only did a hike with them. It was the beginner one and I think we should have done the more advanced ones to be honest. Suffice to say, the kids on the tour loved it.

Overall:
This is an excellent resort to stay in puerto vallarta. The rooms, food, drinks and the service they provide are all top-notch. I would recommend doing the all-inclusive option and upgrade to an ultra suite to get the best views as well.

First of all EVERYTHING you read about in all of these reviews about Hotel Mousai are correct. This is a 5 star hotel rated by those who have stayed there and those reviews are spot on. I’m not going to tell you how wonderful the pool, food, room, etc. is. That has already been done many times over. I agree with all the reviews. The hotel is spectacular!

My wife and I decided in Nov 2018 we wanted to go to Puerto Vallarta. We had never been there and took to TripAdvisor for some recommendations. Of course we looked for adults only, all inclusive, and not downtown. Then sort your results and HM came out on the top. We looked into it and made a decision in March 2019 to go for the 1st time. Spectacular corner room with all the wonderful amenities you’ve read in the previous reviews. We had a fantastic time.

Fast forward 1 year. We were looking for another place for a March vacation (2020) and decided to go back to HM. We were so happy there it made sense to go back. Of course the day after we arrived all heck broke lose in the US with the virus and all that. You name it, it all got closed that week. That said we were able to stay the entire week and enjoyed 80+ degrees and sun each day for 7 days!!! We did make it back about 5 days before Mexico was added to the do not visit list.

So, the stay was again wonderful and the following people were the reason why my wife and I had such a wonderful time. It started each day when we went down to the Terrace restaurant for breakfast. A beautiful hostess by the name of Kimberly was there to welcome us with a big smile each day. She was so personable and made a point to come visit us at our table each morning as well as seat us. Once sitting 2 wonderful young me were our waiters for the week. Mataeo and Angel were there on the spot each morning with our favorite mimosas and coffee. After, 2 days they knew exactly what we liked and how it was prepared. They made us so comfortable in the morning that it was very sad to say goodbye on our final morning.

After we had our breakfast we would head up to the pool each day where we would spend the entire day basking in the sun under a tree/umbrella and having wonderful food and drinks brought to us by an exceptional staff. Ignacia (aka Nacho) was our waiter almost every day. He made sure that we were taken care of every moment. Anyone can bring you drinks and food, but Nacho did so with a smile and a personal touch each and every time. Rigo was a young pool boy who set up our chairs each day. He knew exactly what we liked and where we liked to sit. Under the palm tree! Every day when we arrived he would have the chairs and umbrella set for us as soon as we got off the elevator. This young man also spent many moments talking to my wife and I and telling us great stories about PV life and how happy he was to be working at HM. He worked tirelessly each day and should be commended for his dedication.

So this entire rooftop pool/bar area is a very large thing that needs to be managed. Our friend Gustavo was the Pool Floor Manager and he is 100% the best management person I’ve ever met. His employees work so very hard for him and each and every day make sure that each and every guest is greeted with a smile and taken care of throughout the day. He didn’t just walk the floor either. He delivered food, drinks, adjusted umbrellas, you name it. He was a part of the team and not just the “boss”. He and I spoke many times over the week about all types of things. Some of them personal about his family and what happens after he leaves for the day. Each of these employees has a life outside the hotel and I urge you to talk to them and here what they have to say. Gustavo planned a beautiful table for us at the rooftop restaurant on our last night at the hotel. A wonderful gesture from a wonderful person.

Lastly, and certainly not least was our butler(s). Ernesto was our assigned butler and although we really didn’t require very much from him during our stay he was always available. He would see us at breakfast and 1 or 2 times during the day while at the pool. He helped us with a couple of dinner reservations and secured us a beautiful dinner on the beach one evening. The atmosphere was fantastic.
1 last person I need to recognize is a gentleman who 1 year ago when we were there was working at the pool. This year he was now a butler serving customers. On our very first day we walked past him at the pool in the morning. He was on the telephone with someone. Since he was on the phone I simply smiled and walked past him. As I passed he looked up and said to me “welcome back”! I was taken by surprise and then recognized him as the pool person from last year. Having someone like that remember you from a year ago means that these workers don’t look at their positions as just jobs, they have a personal stake in them as well. He spent a good amount of time with me this week talking to me about where we could go near the resort. He told me about his family and where they like to go and spend time. He sent me a text with some links and great information. He went Above and Beyond his duties as an employee. Please, when you go to HM, and you MUST, please ask for Cesar. Even if you just say hello, you will not be disappointed.

Thank you to each and every one of the employees of HM. You made our week stay a memorable one and your hospitality means that we WILL return once more! Thank you !!!

We had an amazing time in a private corner suite! The private hot tub, balcony, views, and room service were incredible. Never needed to, or wanted to, leave the room. The amenities were incredible and comfortable. Our check in experience was a bit disjointed, but the hotel apologized and properly rectified the situation. Would stay again!!

My husband and I first discovered Hotel Mousai in October 2018 on a five-day vacation celebrating our anniversary. The entire experience took our breath away; we loved our corner suite with butler service; the incredible service; and amazing food - and five days were not enough. So, we decided to come back for a full week in November 2019. Everything was just as we remembered it, and even better. Gorgeous rooms, wonderful food - but what makes Hotel Mousai so incredible are the people. Everyone we met was no nice and personable. I thought it only fair to identify and thank all the wonderful folks at the hotel who made are second visit even better than the first:
Angel - Hiroshi breakfast
Jose’ - rooftop pool
Veronica - rooftop pool & Hiroshi
Narce - rooftop pool & Hiroshi
Manuel - bellman
Polo - rooftop pool
Ce’sar - butler
Jairo - butler
Aldo Ibarra - rooftop pool
Ignacio - bellman
Rigo - rooftop pool
Irving - Hiroshi
Cesar - Hiroshi
Eduardo - Hiroshi breakfast
Mateo - Hiroshi breakfast

We were elated to hear of the expansion (new tower being built), and we are looking forward to another visit in fall of 2021 - this time with 3 more couples!

Hotel Mousai is a very special place. Don’t hesitate to book your trip. Also, go into town. We did the ATV tour through the city and Sierra Madres. Spectacular! The people of Puerto Vallarta are beautiful and friendly, and one of the many reasons the city is so special!

Hotel Mousai is fabulous! We won the trip on The Ellen Show and our expectations were average. We were WRONG! This place is fabulous and every wish is their command. Staff is personable and caring. Pool side evening sax player was magical. Rooms are clean, hot tub, huge mini bar, and 24 hour room service. Treat yourself!

One of my best experience if not the best experience I had in Mexico. The property is well kept. Christian from their booking department helped me book the ultra suite, it was nothing short of luxury. Everyone was extremely professional and helpful. You will see why they’re the only 5 diamonds resort there

We spent 5 days in total bliss! The rooms were spotlessly clean with top-of-the-line modern decor. Our favorite features in the room were the bed & pillows, automatic blinds & music & our very own hot tub! We woke up each morning, opened our blinds & stared out into the pacific. WOW! Our favorite hotel feature was the rooftop. Aldo served us at the infinity pool each day & the margaritas were to die for! If you're looking for paradise, this is it! They also have a sister hotel you can be shuttled to if you'd like to be on the beach. Our pool experience there was just as wonderful. I can't say enough about the service! Cesar & Ernesto were the two butlers who took care of us and they were EXCELLENT! They made recommendations, scheduled our dinners, turned down our beds &…

We spent all of Saturday lounging, drinking cold beers and funky Mezcal infused adult beverages. You can order a large array of snacks but stick to the fresh seafood. Probably the best Tuna Sashimi we've had in a long time.

A live musician playing light jazz, infinity views and amazing service.. We left the rooftop just to continue enjoying yet another gem at Mousai called Hiroshi..

We have stayed at Mousai on several occasions and I can honestly say that each time, it's a great experience. The level of care and kindness the staff demonstrate the their guests truly places Mousai in a league of its own. I will definitely come back each time we go to Puerto Vallarta. The rooftop is truly a landmark!

Our weekend getaway couldn’t have been more perfect. Everyone from servers to concierge is extremely attentive to your needs, they make it a remarkable experience. Hiroshi is a must try if you are in PV too. You’re in for quite a treat and can’t wait to come back again. P.S. this is our third time visiting this hotel so you know it’s worth it.

Everything about this hotel is excellent. They went out of their way to make us happy. The food was fab, the service over the top, the view amazing. Our corner suite room was awesome and we loved the bed. I wish I would have brought some friend couples because my only complaint is there is no live music or dancing at night so we got a bit bored. We know there is plenty to do in town but it would have been cool if they had a live trio for dancing a few nights a week. Loved the sax player that went around and played with the background music in the evening at the restaurant and in the lobby. It is really a special place.

We had booked a 2 bedroom panoramic view suite. We had booked hotel direct and had requested a higher floor and away from the construction noise. When we got there we were given a room on the 3rd floor in Building 5 which was right beside the construction and no view in front coz of the trees. We asked to be moved and they did so after 2 nights. That was an annoying and inconvenient
Other than that incident, we have to say we simply and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The hotel and staff is excellent. We had included breakfast and it was amazing with lots of options. Ate at Blanca Blue and it was great. The poolside and beach service was excellent. The spa outstanding, our family of 4 had a massage service there and it was great. the views are phenomenal and its only 20 mins from town. The Italian restaurant which is open on the beach in the evening is average.

The Ultra Junior Panorama Suite was an exquisite room. Tower 4 was well located with access to the Panorama pool and Hotel Mousai. There is some construction noise but you can still hear the ocean from the balcony. If you want authentic Mexico, this isn’t the place. Local cuisine is non-existent, however, the food is good. I recommend the Aqua Azul. Access to the town is great. If you are looking for luxury, and the price that goes with it, then s is your kind of place.

We had the best time at this resort. It was just breathtaking views, the service was phenomenal. the staff is so nice, and helpful ALL OF THE TIME. They never falter, not once. Especially Carlos the butler he was always there ready to help with whatever we wanted reservations, information, questions, printing boarding passes, you name it. He showed up like magic, amazing!! Jorge he was in the front greeting people, he always helped when we had any questions, on taxies, excursions, cost or things, directions, etc. We had laundry that wasnt dry and he laid it out on the balcony for us, WHAT?! who does that?? The spa was so nice and relaxing its a must do. I will be trying to figure out how to get back as soon as possible.

We have been in Garza Blanca in March 2017 and have returned this March 2020 for a 2nd visit.

We found our experience in 2020 to be as good and even better than our 2017 stay at the resort. 1st, let’s talk about the construction going on that everyone has been talking about. It did not bother us one bit. Yes, you can see the construction going on when looking out from the Panoramic Suite balcony in Tower 4, 5 or even the Mousai… but that was not an issue for us. As far as construction noise goes we did ear the occasional truck road by on the main street between the upper towers and the main hotel part near the beach but that was not worse than other traffic that goes by there at normal time anyway.

So if you are worried about construction (at least at the current stage) then worry not. I have to say that we stayed in a 2 bedroom panoramic suite in tower 4 facing the pool. So we had a view of the construction site. Had we been in Tower 5 with a balcony facing the hill side we might have had more of a distracting view as it would have been in our face… but again, we spend most of our time by the pool, beach or restaurant when at the Garza so again, it would have been ok for us.

So how did it compare to 2017? Well, everything is pretty much exactly as we left it 3 years ago. The venues are as clean as before. Some aging is starting to show in a few places and will be in need of a refresh sooner than later. Nothing huge or big but obviously when you have a large turnaround in a suite, couches and bed mattress can start to show signs of wear. Most notably the living room lamp shades showed signs of having fallen to the ground more than once. Something the hotel might want to address with less prone to fall type of lamp for example.

The pools and beach area were spotless with plenty of sun chairs and towels well folded on each every time we went by and plenty of free chairs to sit when we got there. There were the isolated reserved chairs by some inconsiderate guests (we sat beside them for more than 3 hours and no one even showed up… such behaviour should not be tolerated...) but not in too large a number.

Pool service was awesome and we never had to wait very long before someone offered us a new refreshment of more food by the pool. Food choices on the menu were plentiful and of great quality. Drinks never were served with less alcohol than expected. I read some had issues with weak drinks but this never was the case for us.

Room service was spot on and almost obsessive :-) We had nice little surprises left in our room by the staff every evening. The fridge water, pop and beer content was always well stocked. Mind you, we do leave good tip for room services so your mileage may vary based on tipping or not. For example, we left 100 pesos every day in the fridge and 300 pesos for the room every day we have been there.

Restaurant service was awesome. We ate at the Iroshi, Bokados and Blanca Blue restaurant during our stay. Food was always good and the service was always great. We ate most of our meal at the Blanca Blue and built a great relationship with the “Maitre d’hotel” there. We have been offered the opportunity to try the new menu items for 2020 that will be offered soon to guests of the resort. It was presented to us by the “Maitre d’hotel” himself (Rigo) and his assistant (Jose).

It consisted of an 8 course meal with carefully selected drinks. We were 1st offered an amazing custom drink that we called the “Sunset”. It was a tasteful blend of cucumber, tequila, and a few other alcohols I don’t remember. Perfect to drink while watching the sunset on the banderas bay and catching the Orca swimming by in the ocean.

I could go on and attempt to describe the tasteful and well presented plates that followed but this would not give justice to them as they were beyond good. You will have to experience them on your own and be the judge. I am not sure if this special dining offer comes by frequently but the “Maitre d'hotel” told us it is only done a few times a week and usually to couples. This one was a bit special since we were 5 at the table (wife and I plus 3 kids ages 18, 16 and 14).

The meal ended with something really special called a flaming mexican coffee. This is truly spectacular and a must have if you stay at the Garza Blanca.

So overall our stay at the resort was a blast and we will be happy to return if we have the chance in the future. With the resort expansion I think things will only get better once the new towers and sections are open.

The trip to Garza blanca was absolutely amazing.
The rooms are beautiful wirh a refrigerator stocked with water and soda and beer, as well as snacks. Restocked daily. Blanca Bleu, the main restaurant had gourmet dishes. Delicious. And the adjacent property Villa del palmar has outstanding dining options as well.
The waiter, Hector, at the Asian restaurant,Hiroshi, was best server I have EVER had. He went the extra mile to insure our dining experience was special.
The names to shout out for excellence at Garza blanca Maria, and Otikio, the pool concierges were on top of everything to make food, Drinks, chairs, umbrellas always available. Just fabulous. Isbelina, Edger, and ESPECIALLY Ivan, who was our "butler " were over the top amazing. Cant say enough good about this place. After Coronavirus is conquered, take a trip to Cancun Stay at Garza Blanca, you not regret it.

After the circumstances of the first half of 2020 we were SO ready for our vacation. I’m so happy we chose Garza Blanca. This was our first visit since purchasing our membership and from before our arrival we were being treated like family. Upon our arrival everyone greeted us with “Welcome Home” and by the time we left we truly get like we had been with “family”. All the staff at Blanca Blu greeted us by name and remembered our breakfast and dinner preferences. Our “Host” Pascal made sure ALL our needs were met and went above and beyond to provide us with recommendations.
The Imagine Spa is world class and one of the best we’ve ever visited.
Thanks to EVERYONE that made our stay so memorable. We look forward to seeing you all again soon!!

Dear Senor Lopez Tarragota,

Note: First let me put everone's mind at ease about any Covid-19 concerns at the resort. The resort lived up to its Covid-prevention pledge. Absolutely no doubt that the resort is Covid-prevention safe.

My Review:

The title of this review are my words my words which I used in my Google review using my writer's alias, "Stan Dubrunski." So if people want to see the usual breath-taking resort photos, they are there.

I did include 2 photos that show in detail the Garza Blanca difference: 1) The fine detailed artistic finishing of the transition of the tile floor using hand-laid stones to also act to avoid foot slippage, and 2) Not only are there knotted rope ends on the bed canopy ropes, they are accented with a sea shell. Detailed class is embolden throughout the resort's facilities. Expensive, yet lasting, and so very appreciated.

Instead, I want to let people know why:
When you close your eyes and dream of the ideal tropical vacation ~ when you open your eyes Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarata will be ready and waiting for you.

You and your staff are the difference between just a nice posh resort and truly a relaxing week in paradise.

The many associates whom we encountered at the resort speak proudly of it ~ knowing that if they honor the high guest expectations that they will be given opportunities to advance their careers creates an atmosphere with a positive aura.

I know that I will forget someone ~ including the maids, gardeners, shuttle drivers and bellmen who stopped to answer my questions~ but here goes my staff shout-out list:
Manuel our personal butler;
Gloria and Emily the Elite Consierges who setup our reservation and arranged so many details to happen;
my 3 Amigos at the Panorama Pool and know Tequila ~ Pedro, Gonzolo & Miguel;
Tito at the Beach Pool;
Kiersten & Antonio at Bianca Blue;
our Tower4 Room Service butlers who delivered & setup our breakfasts;
Ana our maid;
and, countless others I should have taken photos of and/or noted their names.

My family and I spent 3 wonderful days at Garza Blanca. We stayed in a 2 bdrm panorama in tower 5 and what an incredible view!! We were amazed at how clean everything was and the staffs attentiveness was outstanding! Everyone wore masks and were constantly cleaning tables, chairs, handrails, bathrooms, etc.. we decided to get the all inclusive and it was totally worth it. Food was very good and kids loved their coconut ice cream! We are definitely going to come back and spend more time here, 3 days is just not enough!

If you are looking for an all-inclusive that has excellent service, amenities, beautiful beaches and views and breathtaking rooms, look no longer.

My family and I, which includes a 6 and an 8 years-old just stayed there and we were so very impressed with this place; it exceeded our expectations. Highlights:

- Rooms are incredibly spacious; the Panorama suite we stayed at had two newsrooms and three bathrooms plus a kitchen and living room area, with out-of-this-world views to the sea and unforgettable sunsets; hammock and jacuzzi on the balcony, which is enormous
- Staff is super nice and attentive. Special thanks to Ms. Monica from the Kids Club; she was amazing with our kids and so sweet. They wanted to go every single day!
Also thanks to Mario for the wonderful breakfasts we had at STK Bocados and for Jetzel and all of his waiters, who were phenomenal at dinner time. Alejandro and Antonio at the Panoramic pool are the best; they say everything is possible here, just ask!
- The views are spectacular
- The food is good and with an all-inclusive package, you cannot go wrong

They took extra care of sanitizing all areas, including the kids club at lunch times. Super clean and the staff wears masks at all times.

Wonderful experience and unforgettable memories!

We have stayed in the 2 bedroom mountain suite and one bedroom mountain suite. The views are beautiful. The beach and pools are very nice. The personnel there are very kind and you are there guest. The restaurants have good food and room service is very nice when your tired from taking a bus into town and shopping. It is very relaxing there.

This was our first visit to Garza Blanca, and looking forward to next time. We reserved a 1 bedroom unit through RCI, and paid for an upgrade to a 2 br when we arrived. This is a big resort, so plan accordingly. They have a trolley that runs every 15 minutes, but you can't set your clock by it. If you are fit, the walking is easily done. It is located about 15 minutes out of town, so you are isolated. Uber into town is only about 80 pesos. The 2 bedroom was fabulous. Two bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and private hot tub on balcony. Their drink prices and room service prices were very reasonable. It doesn't appear they have changed their menu prices with the drop in Peso value, which makes the prices even better. Their housekeeping was very attentive and did a great job. …

We have stayed at Mousai on several occasions and I can honestly say that each time, it's a great experience. The level of care and kindness the staff demonstrate the their guests truly places Mousai in a league of its own. I will definitely come back each time we go to Puerto Vallarta. The rooftop is truly a landmark!

I highly recommend this hotel, it has everything to have a nice vacation. Even with Covid times, they were on top of our expectations, theyll take care of you and your family to keep all areas sanitized and have social distance with other guests from the hotel at the restaurant or beach/pool cots. The beach is beautiful and they provide paddle boards and Kayaks for the guests.It was my first time there and will definitely come back.

"Awesome hotel and service"

LOVED this hotel! First off beautiful hotel and love the vibe. Secondly the food.... the food is pretty freaking fantastic especially for someone like me who has a dairy allergy and has to settle with lettuce and protein when all else fails lol... Lastly and most importantly, the service! Diego was super awesome and so welcoming and answered any questions we had. Angel who always greeted us in the morning with an awesome breakfast and positive attitude. I wish I remembered the gentleman's name at the rooftop during the day because he was super sweet, and lastly the guy who works in the spa made us feel so relaxed and he was so nice and polite I wanted to give him a hug haha (I think his name was Jesus). To make a long story short we will be back and especially now with COVID, we felt so safe and the entire staff made sure that every guest felt comfortable and wore masks, plus there are sanitizers every 4-5 feet.

"great worry- free break for a week"

Our first trip out since covid started ..we were pleasantly surprised .the entire staff were friendly , caring and went out of their way . We were given the option to attend a presentation but never forced ( thank you ) .. we just needed to unwind from the crazy last few months and this resort gave us that and more ! Really great that everything is a la carte - no buffets . We opted for breakfast option only and had a 2 bedroom panoramic with ocean views that was beyond luxury ! The spa - though not cheap was well worth it - opt for the 80 min instead of 50- you won't regret it !I'm pretty sure we will return here ! We rarely want to visit the sane resort twice but we will with this one ! Thank you Garza!Kaur family

We were amazed at how clean everything was and the staffs attentiveness was outstanding! Everyone wore masks and were constantly cleaning tables, chairs, handrails, bathrooms, etc.. we decided to get the all inclusive and it was totally worth it. Food was very good and kids loved their coconut ice cream! We are definitely going to come back and spend more time here, 3 days is just not enough!

"Beautiful Relaxing Weekend"

This is a beautiful property perched on the mountain side. Amazing views from every room. The hotel rooms are Vegas-like looking and amazingly appointed with automatic curtains, heated toilet seat, great lighting, hammock on the balcony along with a small hot tub. If you decide you want to spend a bunch of time in your room, you will not be disappointed. The grounds & pool area are lovely and very well taken care of. The one very big disappointment was the food - it is not a 5 star experience for food and drink. Just not quite what I was expecting for this highly rated hotel. I would say the food does not match the rest of the experience, not even close. It would have been nice to see them have some local beers as well (not just the run of the mill, Corona, Pacifico, etc.). We did take advantage of the deep discount for this time year + Covid, had we paid full price, I would given my review a 3. They need to up their food game a lot. I will say though that Hiroshi was very good, not mind-blowing, but very good. It is very true, the staff is beyond fantastic and we felt very welcome and taken care of! Everyone was so kind and helpful.

"YOU'LL NEVER WANT TO LEAVE"

My best friend and I came to celebrate his birthday & it couldn't have been any better! From being greeted at the airport, transportation to and from the hotel, we were well taken care of! The hotel staff are the absolute BEST! I can tell that they all take much pride in giving excellent service! Even through the masks, you can see the smiles and genuine kindness shown everywhere we went. Everything we ate and drank we enjoyed to the fullest! The chocolates were some of the best I've ever had! Our Butler, Cesar was awesome! He popped up like a genie literally out of nowhere accommodating everything we needed and more! We were on the 11th floor, and had spectacular views, although every window you looked through you'd be in awe! The rooftop is a DREAM. From the decor, live music, and my GOODNESS the VIEW is incredible! I never wanted to leave!We visited the spa literally 3 out of the 4 days we were there to do the hydro therapy! Josue immediately became one of our favorites who took excellent care of us! The tea, and cookies are the best we've ever had! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to every single staff member who went above and beyond to listen to every request and concern and make this trip the best we've ever had! Can't wait to visit again! <3

"Amazing Vacation- Best resort and staff of all time"

Just returning home from our amazing vacation at Mousai. The resort is pristine and is taking more precautions against CoViD than any place I have been in the US. Service is impeccable as always. Ernesto and Cesar our butlers made the trip seamless and worry free with every amenity we could imagine. Paulina, our concierge, made sure our anniversary and my birthday was over the top celebration! Angel, our happy waiter, made every breakfast so enjoyable. The rooftop team... there are no words for the team up top that take care of your every need....: no matter how many cocktails you have had! Also, Nacho,Jesus, Ivan and the rest ... we love you guys!!! Thank you for making this trip even better every time

"No, this isn't heaven~ but, I'm telling you that it's paradise! Perfect in every way."

Dear Senor Lopez Tarragota, Note: First let me put everone's mind at ease about any Covid-19 concerns at the resort. The resort lived up to its Covid-prevention pledge. Absolutely no doubt that the resort is Covid-prevention safe. My Review:The title of this review are my words my words which I used in my Google review using my writer's alias, "Stan Dubrunski." So if people want to see the usual breath-taking resort photos, they are there.I did include 2 photos that show in detail the Garza Blanca difference: 1) The fine detailed artistic finishing of the transition of the tile floor using hand-laid stones to also act to avoid foot slippage, and 2) Not only are there knotted rope ends on the bed canopy ropes, they are accented with a sea shell. Detailed class is embolden throughout the resort's facilities. Expensive, yet lasting, and so very appreciated.Instead, I want to let people know why: When you close your eyes and dream of the ideal tropical vacation ~ when you open your eyes Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarata will be ready and waiting for you.You and your staff are the difference between just a nice posh resort and truly a relaxing week in paradise.The many associates whom we encountered at the resort speak proudly of it ~ knowing that if they honor the high guest expectations that they will be given opportunities to advance their careers creates an atmosphere with a positive aura.I know that I will forget someone ~ including the maids, gardeners, shuttle drivers and bellmen who stopped to answer my questions~ but here goes my staff shout-out list: Manuel our personal butler; Gloria and Emily the Elite Consierges who setup our reservation and arranged so many details to happen; my 3 Amigos at the Panorama Pool and know Tequila ~ Pedro, Gonzolo & Miguel; Tito at the Beach Pool; Kiersten & Antonio at Bianca Blue; our Tower4 Room Service butlers who delivered & setup our breakfasts; Ana our maid; and, countless others I should have taken photos of and/or noted their names.

We loved this property. It's not a mega resort but that's what we liked. It's large enough to have several high quality restaurants but not too big that they lose the intimate feeling. The staff was extremely helpful, courteous and kind.

"100% Outstanding"

Stayed at the hotel from June 11-14 in a Mousai Corner Suite on the 5th floor. The room was very large and has an amazing jacuzzi plunge pool on the deck along with a very relaxing hammock. The hotel recently reopened following the closure for the virus, which was a nice treat as the service was off the charts. All the hotel employees were very attentive to our every need. Very friendly. A++The food and beverage of the all inclusive service was on point and worth the upgrade. Most of the restaurants on property were open and we especially loved the Rooftop bar & pool. The views from the top are breathtaking. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an adult-only getaway. You wont be disappointed.

The chefs Alfred and Rosalio provided the most enticing dishes. From steak, to ceviche the taste and presentation was nothing short of amazing. Daniel and Alvaro were great waiters for our meals. Martin is really the mvp. From pool side service, to special requests, there are wasn't an ask he didn't fill. He is so kind and patient, and really went above and beyond during our stay.

"Paradise!"

We spent 5 days in total bliss! The rooms were spotlessly clean with top-of-the-line modern decor. Our favorite features in the room were the bed & pillows, automatic blinds & music & our very own hot tub! We woke up each morning, opened our blinds & stared out into the pacific. WOW! Our favorite hotel feature was the rooftop. Aldo served us at the infinity pool each day & the margaritas were to die for! If you're looking for paradise, this is it! They also have a sister hotel you can be shuttled to if you'd like to be on the beach. Our pool experience there was just as wonderful. I can't say enough about the service! Cesar & Ernesto were the two butlers who took care of us and they were EXCELLENT! They made recommendations, scheduled our dinners, turned down our beds & helped us with every detail along the way. They checked in with us at least twice a day. Their presence made our experience top notch!We had massages that left us both feeling like we'd had an out-of-body experience. Our masseuses were Carmen, Gema & Araceli... all amazing with incredibly relaxing mannerisms! The breakfast is excellent! Angel helped us each morning and it was a delightful way to start the day! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu!Local restaurants we highly recommend are... Barcelona Tapas, Langosta Feliz, La Palapa, Garza Blue, D'Costa

After the circumstances of the first half of 2020 we were SO ready for our vacation. Im so happy we chose Garza Blanca. This was our first visit since purchasing our membership and from before our arrival we were being treated like family. Upon our arrival everyone greeted us with Welcome Home and by the time we left we truly get like we had been with family. All the staff at Blanca Blu greeted us by name and remembered our breakfast and dinner preferences. Our Host Pascal made sure ALL our needs were met and went above and beyond to provide us with recommendations. The Imagine Spa is world class and one of the best weve ever visited. Thanks to EVERYONE that made our stay so memorable. We look forward to seeing you all again soon!!

This is absolutely my favorite vacation ever and the resort is one of the best Ive ever stayed at. We were treated extremely great by the entire staff. They went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The food was also amazing, steak house was great but the sushi place was pure magic, I super miss it. Only issue is I would like it if they had a game room for teenagers. Daytime kayaking, hiking, views all extraordinary.I read 1000 reviews, many complain about the bill signing even though you are all inclusive, I didnt think it was that big of a deal.

"Second Stay at Hotel Mousai in Two Years"

My husband and I first discovered Hotel Mousai in October 2018 on a five-day vacation celebrating our anniversary. The entire experience took our breath away; we loved our corner suite with butler service; the incredible service; and amazing food - and five days were not enough. So, we decided to come back for a full week in November 2019. Everything was just as we remembered it, and even better. Gorgeous rooms, wonderful food - but what makes Hotel Mousai so incredible are the people. Everyone we met was no nice and personable. I thought it only fair to identify and thank all the wonderful folks at the hotel who made are second visit even better than the first:Angel - Hiroshi breakfastJose - rooftop poolVeronica - rooftop pool & HiroshiNarce - rooftop pool & HiroshiManuel - bellmanPolo - rooftop poolCesar - butlerJairo - butlerAldo Ibarra - rooftop poolIgnacio - bellmanRigo - rooftop poolIrving - HiroshiCesar - HiroshiEduardo - Hiroshi breakfastMateo - Hiroshi breakfastWe were elated to hear of the expansion (new tower being built), and we are looking forward to another visit in fall of 2021 - this time with 3 more couples!Hotel Mousai is a very special place. Dont hesitate to book your trip. Also, go into town. We did the ATV tour through the city and Sierra Madres. Spectacular! The people of Puerto Vallarta are beautiful and friendly, and one of the many reasons the city is so special!

We stayed here for a long weekend in January 2020. The service was phenomenal, the location beautiful, and the rooms clean and comfortable. We are already working on booking our next trip here. I think Garza Blanca PV has changed us from being new destination seekers to PV regulars. The all inclusive was the easiest option for us and the food and drinks were fantastic! We wont be doing anything different our next time there. There is construction next to and behind Tower 5, but the noise didnt begin until late morning and really had no effect on our vacation. It isnt pretty to look at, but the point of a panoramic balcony is you have options in your view

"Perfect"

The trip to Garza blanca was absolutely amazing.The rooms are beautiful wirh a refrigerator stocked with water and soda and beer, as well as snacks. Restocked daily. Blanca Bleu, the main restaurant had gourmet dishes. Delicious. And the adjacent property Villa del palmar has outstanding dining options as well. The waiter, Hector, at the Asian restaurant,Hiroshi, was best server I have EVER had. He went the extra mile to insure our dining experience was special.The names to shout out for excellence at Garza blanca Maria, and Otikio, the pool concierges were on top of everything to make food, Drinks, chairs, umbrellas always available. Just fabulous. Isbelina, Edger, and ESPECIALLY Ivan, who was our "butler " were over the top amazing. Cant say enough good about this place. After Coronavirus is conquered, take a trip to Cancun Stay at Garza Blanca, you not regret it.

"It is the staff that makes this 5 Stars!"

First of all EVERYTHING you read about in all of these reviews about Hotel Mousai are correct. This is a 5 star hotel rated by those who have stayed there and those reviews are spot on. Im not going to tell you how wonderful the pool, food, room, etc. is. That has already been done many times over. I agree with all the reviews. The hotel is spectacular!My wife and I decided in Nov 2018 we wanted to go to Puerto Vallarta. We had never been there and took to TripAdvisor for some recommendations. Of course we looked for adults only, all inclusive, and not downtown. Then sort your results and HM came out on the top. We looked into it and made a decision in March 2019 to go for the 1st time. Spectacular corner room with all the wonderful amenities youve read in the previous reviews. We had a fantastic time. Fast forward 1 year. We were looking for another place for a March vacation (2020) and decided to go back to HM. We were so happy there it made sense to go back. Of course the day after we arrived all heck broke lose in the US with the virus and all that. You name it, it all got closed that week. That said we were able to stay the entire week and enjoyed 80+ degrees and sun each day for 7 days!!! We did make it back about 5 days before Mexico was added to the do not visit list.So, the stay was again wonderful and the following people were the reason why my wife and I had such a wonderful time. It started each day when we went down to the Terrace restaurant for breakfast. A beautiful hostess by the name of Kimberly was there to welcome us with a big smile each day. She was so personable and made a point to come visit us at our table each morning as well as seat us. Once sitting 2 wonderful young me were our waiters for the week. Mataeo and Angel were there on the spot each morning with our favorite mimosas and coffee. After, 2 days they knew exactly what we liked and how it was prepared. They made us so comfortable in the morning that it was very sad to say goodbye on our final morning.After we had our breakfast we would head up to the pool each day where we would spend the entire day basking in the sun under a tree/umbrella and having wonderful food and drinks brought to us by an exceptional staff. Ignacia (aka Nacho) was our waiter almost every day. He made sure that we were taken care of every moment. Anyone can bring you drinks and food, but Nacho did so with a smile and a personal touch each and every time. Rigo was a young pool boy who set up our chairs each day. He knew exactly what we liked and where we liked to sit. Under the palm tree! Every day when we arrived he would have the chairs and umbrella set for us as soon as we got off the elevator. This young man also spent many moments talking to my wife and I and telling us great stories about PV life and how happy he was to be working at HM. He worked tirelessly each day and should be commended for his dedication.So this entire rooftop pool/bar area is a very large thing that needs to be managed. Our friend Gustavo was the Pool Floor Manager and he is 100% the best management person Ive ever met. His employees work so very hard for him and each and every day make sure that each and every guest is greeted with a smile and taken care of throughout the day. He didnt just walk the floor either. He delivered food, drinks, adjusted umbrellas, you name it. He was a part of the team and not just the boss. He and I spoke many times over the week about all types of things. Some of them personal about his family and what happens after he leaves for the day. Each of these employees has a life outside the hotel and I urge you to talk to them and here what they have to say. Gustavo planned a beautiful table for us at the rooftop restaurant on our last night at the hotel. A wonderful gesture from a wonderful person.Lastly, and certainly not least was our butler(s). Ernesto was our assigned butler and although we really didnt require very much from him during our stay he was always available. He would see us at breakfast and 1 or 2 times during the day while at the pool. He helped us with a couple of dinner reservations and secured us a beautiful dinner on the beach one evening. The atmosphere was fantastic. 1 last person I need to recognize is a gentleman who 1 year ago when we were there was working at the pool. This year he was now a butler serving customers. On our very first day we walked past him at the pool in the morning. He was on the telephone with someone. Since he was on the phone I simply smiled and walked past him. As I passed he looked up and said to me welcome back! I was taken by surprise and then recognized him as the pool person from last year. Having someone like that remember you from a year ago means that these workers dont look at their positions as just jobs, they have a personal stake in them as well. He spent a good amount of time with me this week talking to me about where we could go near the resort. He told me about his family and where they like to go and spend time. He sent me a text with some links and great information. He went Above and Beyond his duties as an employee. Please, when you go to HM, and you MUST, please ask for Cesar. Even if you just say hello, you will not be disappointed.Thank you to each and every one of the employees of HM. You made our week stay a memorable one and your hospitality means that we WILL return once more! Thank you !!!

"Wonderful but under construction."

We just returned from 10 days at GB and here are the pros and cons. My wife and I are frequent visitors to Mexico and have stayed at some of the "top 10" resorts and Garza Blanca's service, accommodations and grounds are the best we have encountered. Especially the service. So kind, friendly and warm, they make you feel at home and are willing to do just about anything make your stay enjoyable. We felt so welcome we extended our stay. As far as the food, we did not do the meal plan but thought the food was good. We preferred to go into town and explore and the help at the front desk was great. Drinks were a little too watered down and actually measured by the shot. Our greeter Jacquie was the best, she was so nice and treated us like a member of her family. Love her and would go back just to see her. Those are the pros. Here are the cons: construction noise from all sides. To the left of tower 5 there is a major construction and road project going on the goes from 7:30-5pm 6 days a week. Major league project that made us change rooms. Behind tower 4 is another tower project and that is at the first floor stage with a tower crane. Get the picture. Less noise but still was not disclosed anywhere on the web sites. FYI the next tower (yes another tower) is slated for construction this year so it will be on going for quite some time. Last is the membership pitch. We decided to see if it was for us. Nice start from Linda but when we were 3 hours in and basically said not interested, Larry the closer came in like the manager at a car dealership to try and close me. Not impressed and was taken aback that he tried to sell us a resale property. Look on line or better deals. Don't be discouraged by the cons. The service is outstanding and would go back to be pampered again, just be mindful of the noise factor. Long story but we love Garza Blanca and will explore their other properties..

"Excellent!"

We stayed here for 3 nights from March 16-19. Both of us are in our early 30s, past our partying phase, so we just wanted to relax and get pampered.Room:We initially got the corner room but upgraded to the ultra mousai corner one. The ultra cost us about 95 dollars more per night. It made us have a butler, pillow menu, aromatherapy and the highest floor available on check in. It made us have access to the hydrotherapy circuit at their spa as well (more on this later). Was it worth it? Being it was our first time here and we just wanted to be pampered, I think it was worth it if just for the views. The other stuff were pleasant add-ons as well.First off, the room is huge! Being a corner room, we got 2 sides of the room open up to the ocean while the other side gave us a gorgeous view of the mountains at the back. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows were equally as lovely. The toilet seat was heated (made us want to install one in our bathroom after this) and aside from the usual toilet paper, it had a bidet which was a very welcome addition as well.Outside, there's a patio with loungers and a heated jacuzzi where we would just lounge around for hours, waiting for magnificent sunset view to come. Food and Drinks:I think this has been one of the best highlights of our stay here. For breakfast, we would usually order room service while admiring the sunrise/bay area. I'd recommend their eggs benedict as well as banana pancakes. We would then be at the rooftop pool for lunch. You can't go wrong with anything you order there. I loved the chicken pops as well as the octopus skewers. While the above mentioned food might seem basic just by looking at the names, the hotel was able to elevate them so that the quality is one that you may see in restaurants. Their seasoning/spice were very much on point as well. For dinner, we ate at hiroshi for the three nights that we were there. I have to say thati was impressed by their food there. I'd recommend the sauteed crab and new york ponzu sashimi as starters and the duck magret, ribeye wasabu, and catch of the day for mains. Their sushi rolls can be a hit or miss.Cocktails can be ordered in-room, by the pool or at hiroshi (served by the lobby bar). All three have different offerings and we only got to sample the ones at the pool and restaurant. All of them seemed elevated and not just your usual sugary flavored drinks. My favorites are the caddilac margarita by the pool and the groovy, or the totori margarita at hiroshi.There are other restaurants at garza blanca that people staying at hotel mousai can go to as well but we elected not to since we've heard just great things at hiroshi and mixed reviews especially when it comes to the difference in quality when you go to the other restaurants.Pool/beachThe rooftop pool is just amazing! Whether we went there in the morning, noontime or in the afternoon, there were always loungers/ cabanas available. This is in stark comparison to other resorts where you have to play the towel game and such. The view is also amazing as it gives you a sweeping view of the ocean from a high vantage point. It's adults only and the environment is more of a chill, relaxed one rather than a party type. They have 2 other pools as well down by garza as far as we could tell but we didnt get the chance to stay there.The beach, being in puerto vallarta was a bit small and a bit rocky especially when compared to cancun. To be honest though, the rooftop pool made up a lot for this lack of beach area.Spa:Staying in an ultra suite, we had access to the hydrotherapy at their spa. It was really relaxing to undergo their circuit. I had a massage afterwards as well and it was really worth the price which was not that high compared to the ones back in USA. The quality though was over the top from the cleansing foot ritual at the start to the almost feeling like you are in a cocoon at the end. I left there feeling like a new person.Service:This one I think really makes this hotel shine. From the welcome drink and cold towel that they gave us when we arrived at the hotel, to the caring aura that they exuded whenever we interacted with them, I could tell that they really wanted to give us a wonderful experience while staying here. Whenever there was a small hiccup in the room, they responded really fast when we alerted them about it. In terms of the daily activities, we only did a hike with them. It was the beginner one and I think we should have done the more advanced ones to be honest. Suffice to say, the kids on the tour loved it.Overall:This is an excellent resort to stay in puerto vallarta. The rooms, food, drinks and the service they provide are all top-notch. I would recommend doing the all-inclusive option and upgrade to an ultra suite to get the best views as well.

"Returning to paradise"

We have been in Garza Blanca in March 2017 and have returned this March 2020 for a 2nd visit.We found our experience in 2020 to be as good and even better than our 2017 stay at the resort. 1st, lets talk about the construction going on that everyone has been talking about. It did not bother us one bit. Yes, you can see the construction going on when looking out from the Panoramic Suite balcony in Tower 4, 5 or even the Mousai but that was not an issue for us. As far as construction noise goes we did ear the occasional truck road by on the main street between the upper towers and the main hotel part near the beach but that was not worse than other traffic that goes by there at normal time anyway.So if you are worried about construction (at least at the current stage) then worry not. I have to say that we stayed in a 2 bedroom panoramic suite in tower 4 facing the pool. So we had a view of the construction site. Had we been in Tower 5 with a balcony facing the hill side we might have had more of a distracting view as it would have been in our face but again, we spend most of our time by the pool, beach or restaurant when at the Garza so again, it would have been ok for us.So how did it compare to 2017? Well, everything is pretty much exactly as we left it 3 years ago. The venues are as clean as before. Some aging is starting to show in a few places and will be in need of a refresh sooner than later. Nothing huge or big but obviously when you have a large turnaround in a suite, couches and bed mattress can start to show signs of wear. Most notably the living room lamp shades showed signs of having fallen to the ground more than once. Something the hotel might want to address with less prone to fall type of lamp for example.The pools and beach area were spotless with plenty of sun chairs and towels well folded on each every time we went by and plenty of free chairs to sit when we got there. There were the isolated reserved chairs by some inconsiderate guests (we sat beside them for more than 3 hours and no one even showed up such behaviour should not be tolerated...) but not in too large a number.Pool service was awesome and we never had to wait very long before someone offered us a new refreshment of more food by the pool. Food choices on the menu were plentiful and of great quality. Drinks never were served with less alcohol than expected. I read some had issues with weak drinks but this never was the case for us.Room service was spot on and almost obsessive :-) We had nice little surprises left in our room by the staff every evening. The fridge water, pop and beer content was always well stocked. Mind you, we do leave good tip for room services so your mileage may vary based on tipping or not. For example, we left 100 pesos every day in the fridge and 300 pesos for the room every day we have been there.Restaurant service was awesome. We ate at the Iroshi, Bokados and Blanca Blue restaurant during our stay. Food was always good and the service was always great. We ate most of our meal at the Blanca Blue and built a great relationship with the Maitre dhotel there. We have been offered the opportunity to try the new menu items for 2020 that will be offered soon to guests of the resort. It was presented to us by the Maitre dhotel himself (Rigo) and his assistant (Jose).It consisted of an 8 course meal with carefully selected drinks. We were 1st offered an amazing custom drink that we called the Sunset. It was a tasteful blend of cucumber, tequila, and a few other alcohols I dont remember. Perfect to drink while watching the sunset on the banderas bay and catching the Orca swimming by in the ocean.I could go on and attempt to describe the tasteful and well presented plates that followed but this would not give justice to them as they were beyond good. You will have to experience them on your own and be the judge. I am not sure if this special dining offer comes by frequently but the Maitre d'hotel told us it is only done a few times a week and usually to couples. This one was a bit special since we were 5 at the table (wife and I plus 3 kids ages 18, 16 and 14).The meal ended with something really special called a flaming mexican coffee. This is truly spectacular and a must have if you stay at the Garza Blanca.So overall our stay at the resort was a blast and we will be happy to return if we have the chance in the future. With the resort expansion I think things will only get better once the new towers and sections are open.

"Garza Blanca was AMAZING!!"

We had the best time at this resort. It was just breathtaking views, the service was phenomenal. the staff is so nice, and helpful ALL OF THE TIME. They never falter, not once. Especially Carlos the butler he was always there ready to help with whatever we wanted reservations, information, questions, printing boarding passes, you name it. He showed up like magic, amazing!! Jorge he was in the front greeting people, he always helped when we had any questions, on taxies, excursions, cost or things, directions, etc. We had laundry that wasnt dry and he laid it out on the balcony for us, WHAT?! who does that?? The spa was so nice and relaxing its a must do. I will be trying to figure out how to get back as soon as possible.

We stayed at Garza Blanca in February 2020.we enjoyed not having to do the all inclusive as we like to go out and explore and it would not be a benefit for us. Having said that the all inclusive is very nice and the buffet breakfast is amazingWe enjoyed our room it was wonderful. Coffee always plentiful, which is important for us.The room was always clean. The staff were very helpful and nice.we definitely will be back to swim in the infinity poolThe resort requests that you are quiet after 930, this also was great for us as we would get up early and explore Puerto Vallarta. We loved the Malaccan. walking up a block or so from the Malaccan you can find numerous restaurants to try

We booked an Ultra Mousai Corner Suite for one week to celebrate our honeymoon which comes with the all-inclusive benefits of their ULTRA package.In our 6 days on the resort, we only had EXCELLENT experiences with the staff, the facilities, and accessing all our ultra benefits. There are tons of options for how to spend each day. We preferred to begin each day with in-room dining on the terrace overlooking the sail-boats gliding through the bay. For the mornings, we'd hit the spa or the outdoor activities like hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming in waterfalls, etc. The staff on each excursion was amazing! Oswaldo, Sergio, and Julio were awesome!Every afternoon was spent on the rooftop under a cabana and swimming in the beautiful infinity pool overlooking the bay. We ordered fresh food and amazing drinks while soaking in the sun. Alberto, Ivan, Enrique, and Rigo took excellent care of us during the afternoons and made the whole experience fantastic.Finally, our butler, Cesar, made sure we made the most of our trip, he helped us plan sunset dinners at Hiroshi and Bianca Blue, organize our hydrotherapy at the spa, utilize all our services and more. Everyone at Mousai was very friendly and super helpful.I cannot wait to bring some friends next time!

We have stayed at the Garza Blanca twice now. We absolutely love it here. The first time we didn't bring the kids and didn't do all inclusive but just the bed and breakfast option. We fell in love with the place and so we decided to bring the kids back. We just came back about a week ago and I have nothing but good things to say about the resort. This place feels and looks like 5 stars. I have to say the food at all the restaurants is amazing. People aren't heavily drinking which is nice and its also a smaller resort. We love the workers here they all do such a great job. The only thing I would suggest is to get some comfortable bath towels- the ones they provide are a little thin. Other than that this place is hands down amazing. I would like to keep coming back twice a year.

While I did not stay at Hotel Mousai (I stayed in another tower on Garza Blanca Preserve), I was thrilled to experience some of their amenities. Our dinner at Hiroshi was top-notch. The food was excellent and the servicefrom our primary waiter Irving to the hostess and other serverswas impeccable. I also treated myself to services at Spa Imagine. My first relaxation massage with Naomi was so great, that I went back the next day and had another incredible relaxation massage and scalp massage with Elizabeth. She was so kind and skilled, I felt truly blessed to have been massaged by her. The hydrotherapy is not to be missed, and the facilities are stunning as well.

The service, the cleanliness, the people, the rooftop pools, the food, everyone remembered our name from the second we walked in the door.... the views from the rooftop pool are out of this world and the beach was beautiful and clean! Great craft cocktails not just those sugary all inclusive drinks at out places and I didnt have one bad meal. The sushi was our favorite! I am already planning my trip back! Thanks Hotel Mousai!

Where to begin with this gorgeous property! Everything was absolutely amazing; from the seamless check in process to my personal concierge greeting me and letting me know how she can make my stay as easy and care free as possible. And that was before I entered my suite! The room I can go on and on about.. but you need to experience it yourself :) The spa is one of the most relaxing environments I've immersed myself in some time and my deep tissue massage was top 3 in my life. The cocktails are all a must try!

Beauty, comfort and luxury at its best. We stayed in the 2 bedroom panoramic suite and it was well-appointed with all the upscale touches considered -- L,Occitane toiletries, ceiling to floor windows that you could push open to take in the impressive view and refreshing sea breeze, a hammock on the expansive balcony, plenty of robes and slippers for everyone, our own personal infinity jacuzzi. You name it and it is here; every detail was thought about and covered. The property is very clean and well-maintained. Also, we chose the all-inclusive option so that we could dine on all the 5 star options this hotel had to offer. We will definitely return.

The staff is so attentive, kind, resourceful; they really make a difference, offering an exceptional service in every ways. Some of them go beyond their task to assure that our stay will be memorable and that we will feel special, like a part of the Family...

We've been to many all inclusive resorts and while this resort is not specifically sold as an all inclusive far as we understand, I must say its service is way above many. You're made to feel that your #1 here , this is our experience. We have to thank Alex at the Italian restaurant for making our three night in a row visit at the restaurant better each night. Keeping our wine glass full and making sure that we were happy as each night went on. The food was so tasty we have no complaints to offer, try the Chicken Marcela. While at the pool Ricardo made sure we were well taken care of, he had a specialty coffee made for my wife and also ensured that my drinks were fill as required.We ate twice at Bocados Steak house which was also perfect, steaks cooked perfectly to order and even the asparagus was just right, best I've ever had, plus you can't beat the view. We were in room 4091B, this I feel was a great room with awesome view, Ultra Panoramic room they call it. Building 4 is your best bet during the construction, it did not bother us at all. Dont be put off by my cons, it's a great place to stay for food , accommodations and service.ProsServiceFood quality Location ViewFacilities Friendly and helpful beach staffPremium alcohol ConsConstruction only if your affected based on room placement Having to sign the bill even though you're all inclusive - just a small con.Road noise.No nightly entertainment if your looking for that to be part of your holidays.

I wish there were more than five stars because Hotel Mousai and its staff is in a category all its own. I love to travel and enjoy exploring luxury hotels and resorts worldwide. I keep returning to Hotel Mousai as no other property I have been to comes close to this hotel in Puerto Vallarta. Not only is the location and physical structure stunning, but the staff exceeds all expectations again and again. My suggestion is if you love tropical vacations and want to be pampered trying Hotel Mousai is a must! It's a great destination for couples, honeymoons, groups, special occasions, or just a getaway. With only 72 suites plus one penthouse this property never feels crowded. Unlike Hawaii and some other destinations you never need to fight for a lounge. Suites are heavenly. The entire staff under the leadership of Cecilia Bustos is incredible. A special thank you to Cecilia and Food & Beverage Manager Daniel Gutierrez for making our group o f 32 feel so special. Also special thanks to concierges including Jennifer, Paulina and Alex. Floor Manager Aldo was incredible. Hostess Jennifer always made everyone feel welcome. Lastly, the butlers are always fantastic. Thank you Cesar for all you do!

We arrived on the heels of a long, challenging 12 months, desperately needing to recharge our mind, bodies, and souls. We were created with first class, attentive service the entire week we were there. Carlos and I left ready to return to our crazy lives after our week of relaxation and rejuvenation. Cesar our butler addressed every detail, making sure our every need and want was taken care of. The Spa Imagine staff provided personal service. The food in each restaurant was delicious.

Fabulous service. All staff were very attentive through our 11 day stay. Best breakfast at the steakhouse. Get the French toast. Best dinner as well. Fillet mignon. Thick cut as you would expect. Sushi great as well. Rooftop pool has the best service I think you will ever experience at an all inclusive. The food is top notch as well.

Beautiful resort. Choice of 3 beautiful pools and the ocean. Only complaint we have is the lack of good chairs at the roof top pool. Chairs are saved for members only. We paid extra for the ultra suit and didn't see any additional perks.... go with the regular room.

"Paradise"

Everything about this hotel is excellent. They went out of their way to make us happy. The food was fab, the service over the top, the view amazing. Our corner suite room was awesome and we loved the bed. I wish I would have brought some friend couples because my only complaint is there is no live music or dancing at night so we got a bit bored. We know there is plenty to do in town but it would have been cool if they had a live trio for dancing a few nights a week. Loved the sax player that went around and played with the background music in the evening at the restaurant and in the lobby. It is really a special place.

The people who work here are fantastic at making guests feel they are being welcomed with open arms into their home and the most relevant part of why this place is so special. Yes the resort is RIGHT ON THE BEACH with a spectacular infinity pool overlooking la playa. And future development on this site is only going to make everyone appreciate the luxurious spaciousness of a vacation mecca on a gorgeous green jungle hillside overlooking Banderas Bay. I will tell you that the overwhelming sentiment upon leaving here is that I just want more.

All making our stay wonderful !! A must see, Hotel Misou rooftop lounge has a unbelievable view and atmosphere!!!To top it off, a live saxophone player serenading!!!!A++++++

Words cannot express how AMAZING this place is! Its not just the resort but the people that work there. This was our second year back, same time for our anniversary. The first time we had originally booked 6 days and extended 3 more this time we went all in and stayed 11 nights. Let me tell you I have never felt more relaxed and taken care of. The staff treats you like family from the moment you step in the door until the day you leave. Pedro & Daniel were an absolute treat behind the bar- we sat with them everyday to grab at least one cocktail. These two guys made our trip 10 fold!! They love what they do and you can tell. Also Victor one of the bell men remembered us from last year and it was amazing to see him as soon as we go there to welcome us back! If you are going to the lobby pool make sure to get some drinks from Angel his positive attitude made our mornings! The Steak House is out of this world!! Lamb is delicious we ate there about 6 times during our 11 night stay. The views are incredible and the food is out of this world. My boyfriend and I are bartenders so we wanted to go somewhere that wasn't crazy overflowing with people and children so we could relax this was the perfect place. Very family friendly but not to the point there kids running around (they even built a kids center). We have already set dates aside for next year (3rd years in a row). Being that both of us have very busy schedules its so hard to take a vacation and it says a lot that we want to go back again. I'm not the type to write reviews but the place deserves recognition!! keep doing what your doing!!! If you happen to end up in Puerto Vallerta this is a must go!

This is one of the most sophisticated and high end hotels Ive ever stayed in my life. It totally surpassed my expectations. Room is exceptionally decorated, it has many many technological gadgets and amenities. Terrace has speakers, a hammock and a perfectly functional jacuzzi. I stayed in the room more than what I have imagined just enjoying it. Spa is impressive. The views from the upper pool are simply and honestly breathtaking!!! Restaurants are delicious. This hotel is not for everyone, just for adults and open minded. Really really recommended for special celebrations with couple.

"Beautiful Place"

We have stayed in the 2 bedroom mountain suite and one bedroom mountain suite. The views are beautiful. The beach and pools are very nice. The personnel there are very kind and you are there guest. The restaurants have good food and room service is very nice when your tired from taking a bus into town and shopping. It is very relaxing there.

Fantastic experience at Hotel Mousai! Great staff, friendly and always willing to help. We will certainly return. We loved the rooms, pool and restaurant. Our concierge and butler, Jennifer and Jairo went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. We celebrated our 25 year anniversary and a 50th birthday. The Spa staff also had rose metals and Happy Anniversary sign for our couples massage. AMAZING time! Thank you all for making this a memorable trip well never forget.

AMAZING HOTEL IN AN UNDERSTATEMENT!! It began with welcome home when we first arrived at the resort. The bell boys were there to greet us immediately. The check in front office staff was amazing. Francisco in the reservations department was amazing to work with. He was able to secure the exact suite that we wanted and beat any deals I had found online. Janine in concierge already had our dinner reservations scheduled for us (she had remembered where we loved eating and the times we like to eat). She made sure we had all of the necessary items we like in our room. Mr. Velasco (upper management)came out to greet us and welcome us back. Wow!! Before I go on I want to say that in addition to all of the amazing amenities this hotel has to offer the most important thing is the familiar faces we see every time we visit. They remember all of my children, my husband and myself and by name!A special and very important shout out to the pool/food service staff. Sergio and Alonso for making sure the pool areas are always spotless, for moving umbrellas around to block sun, making special towel animals for my kids, and for providing towels. The food/ drink servers for being on top of anything and everything, Salvador, Moises, Ricardo, Alejandro, Angel, and Juan. They were there daily running back and forth in the hot sun with a smile on their face the entire time. To Ulysis, the bartender (we refer to him as the ice man) because my kids love playing with ice and he always provides it for them with a smile on his face. He also makes amazing drinks. The capitan Alejandro at the pool service WOW!! I cannot say enough. He goes above and beyond with everything he does and his pool staff follow in his lead. When my husband wanted to try something off of the menu he had it make for him and exceeded his expectations. They have catch of the day on Fridays and Capitan Alejandro always prepared the lobster for me. He took an amazing amount of pride in his set up of the catch of the day. His teams works as a well oiled machine. The pool concierge is the best hands down! Thank you Ernesto, Erkstine, Raul, and Jafet for everything!! My children love and appreciate you all. To Capitan Alma she takes so much pride in providing an excellent breakfast experience, creating a new dish daily for our family thats off the menu. I love all of the changes to the buffet station. The service from her waiter staff was fantastic, Marco and Alonso. Thank you. To the Capitan at Bocados thank you for being so amazing and wonderfully accommodating night after night!Thank you so much to Paola in housekeeping for keeping our room spotless and providing us with extra towels. The kids club is absolutely amazing! My kids still talk about and miss Elena. Great news is that I was told they are actually getting their own facility!! I cannot wait for my next visit to see it!Last but certainly not least, one of my favorites, Maria Estella in real estate. She is the sweetest most knowledgeable person about the resort and all of Puerto Vallarta. My kids all love her as well. She noticed that my youngest didnt have a pair of sunglasses and surprised him with a pair. He still wears them daily and is only 2! The only wrong you can do at this hotel is not booking a stay here. Its amazing!! Its never goodbye, but see you soon. Love, The Galvan Family
