Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta: Ultimate 5 Diamond resort! The best resort in PV area!

This is the largest of the Vidanta destinations, and has been carefully designed to provide an amazing high-end vacation with so much to experience and enjoy.

There is a mile long private beachfront with dozens of palapas for your use, several beautiful pools, an aqua park with waterslide, lazy river and endless wave features, and a kids club with great supervised fun activities ( in case you wanted a little break….)

You will certainly enjoy the 18 gourmet restaurants and 20 bars at this property, featuring almost any cuisine you might want. Workout at the gym or play tennis free of charge with my member privileges. You also have free access to the spa’s relaxing features. Obviously treatments have an additional charge but half price massages are offered quite frequently.

If golf is your thing, there are several choices, including both Greg Norman and Jack Nicklaus designed courses and a new par 3. There is a golf academy if you need some guidance and you can play everyday because I am including a 2 X 1 member benefit for your stay to reduce the green fees by 50%.

Looking for some entertainment? Every night in the very impressive Santuario, you will be treated to live music, great singers, acrobats and other Cirque type acts; even a dj spinning your favorite songs. During the day, the Activities staff at each pool conduct stretching, dancing, trivia, bird watching, water aerobics, relaxation classes and more all week long. Everything is included, and complimentary!

If that wasn’t enough, if you prefer to fish, sail or jet ski, the marina is quite close by: just a short walk down the beach.

So, whether it’s a romantic holiday or a family oriented vacation, Vidanta has it all.

The 1 BR suite is my personal favorite floor plan with the large kitchen and living room areas, deck area and spa tub. Very wonderful spacious floor plan. You can request either a king size bed or two doubles.
If you don’t need to stay in something this spectacular, I have several options for you. You can get the Grand Mayan master room studio without Kitchen/living room for $1100. You can stay in a smaller 1 bedroom at the Mayan Palace for $960 per week or even a studio there, which is nicer and larger than the average hotel room for only $785.
Vidanta charges a resort fee of approximately $75.00 which covers all the room guests for the entire week. Pay directly to the resort.
I know that you can find less expensive resorts in PV or Nuevo Vallarta, but you will not find any place with this quality and level of service for this price. The Vidanta amenities and the attentive staff will ensure that you have an amazing vacation or romantic getaway that will be unforgettable.
