Marina Banderas Suites

Great family boutique hotel for a few nights stay.

This is a lovely boutique hotel with a fantastic location on the marina. Many restaurants are within a short walking distance, one of the finest on the main floor of the building itself. It's a short walk to an excellent, expansive beach and the whole area feels very safe and friendly. We love this general area as it is central to visiting other points of interest both to the north and south...PV, Bucerias, La Cruz, etc. We loved our stay at Marina Banderas Suites and were very well looked after by Eugenia, her family and staff.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The suite is huge with 2 separate rooms plus sofa bad. It made us all feel at home. 2 minutes walk to the Dolphin Adventure, my kids did the trainer for a day, super worth it.

The hotel: -Charming -Staff is warm and friendly The junior suite was plenty spacious and had everything I needed. The air conditioning, the heater, the fan, the hot water, the in-room safe, all worked perfectly. The only thing that was a headache to try to figure out was the television. They might consider printing out instructions and leaving them by the phone. I did have a slight issue the first night and needed to contact the team after hours and that was tricky. I would place a test call from your phone at arrival to make sure you can get through. Hotel restaurant items were yummy, especially the breakfast (chilaquiles!!) The pool was small and not suitable for swimming, but perfect after a long day of walking. Things to know: -Although the mini fridge is stocked items are not complimentary. –Depending on which room you are put in you might get a fair amount of noise. I was on the 2nd floor and you can hear the restaurant staff, the washing machine, the opening and closing of supply closets, etc. Also, my particular fridge would make a loud popping sound like the power was tripped and would sometimes wake me up. After a couple of days you sort of tune it out. The area- -quiet despite a lot of new construction -limited activities/sightseeing -bus stop nearby -comvenience store nearby -$$ contemporary Mex/American restaurants nearby -minutes away from a quiet beach

A great value proposition in Nuevo Vallarta. I had a spacious studio and bathroom, suitable for solo travel or a couple with child. Equipped with microwave and refrigerator. Stocked with typical beverages at reasonable prices. They have a wonderful restaurant and adjacent cafe. Alida and the rest of the staff were very attentive. The family owned Boutique hotel is very close to other great dining and water taxi across the marina. They are a short walk from public beach area and sunset viewing.
