“More Plus than Minus”

Reviewed 15 May 2013 NEW

We stayed at the Costa Sur Resort while in PV for a family wedding. Since we love to explore the town and the restaurant, no All Inclusive was attractive, and this hotel was suggested by the Wedding hotel. We were very pleased overall. The rooms are older, but our room[s] were exceptionally clean. We tried several rooms, as we needed... More

“Don't eat the food”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

We just returned from Mexico. The trip was great, the costa sur was not. Hotel is old, rooms need new furniture, baths and new kit. The only thing they updated was the t.v. Bed was comfortable. View was great but small balcony. Now for the worst part. The fun in this hotel sucks! I still have the runs

To: Lynn Lynn, we were sorry to hear about the negative points in your experience with us, although you were fair about including some of the positive features of Costa Sur, such as the incredible views and new beds and TVs. But we won’t be satisfied until we have resolved the other issues you mention. We have a team working... More

To: Ray F. We were very sorry to hear about your disappointment with your stay at Costa Sur. We try to maintain a comfortable balance with visiting groups who come to enjoy the unique pleasures of our lagoon and beach. Once in a while, we let that balance get away from us and that was apparently the case during your... More

“Awesome, traditional small hotel feel”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

I don't know why there are so many people that have given this hotel a bad review. Some people must have incredibly high expectations to think every property is going to be 5 star. This property is one of the oldest time shares in Puerto Vallarta and while the rooms are a bit dated, they are well maintained and very... More

Thank you so much for your kind review. I feel the same way as you do about the reviews...we are a small, quaint, traditional 4 star hotel located minutes away from one of the most beautiful town in Mexico, Puerto Vallarta. We do not advertise brand new, 5 star, deluxe accommodations, so dont know why some of our guests have... More

“My wife and I had a great time at Costa Sur!”

Reviewed 2 May 2013

The room was in good shape and we enjoyed drinks by the pool with a great view. The help was fabulous and the front desk was very attentive. The view is wonderful and the lagoon is a fun experience! I really enjoyed a relaxing massage from the spa.

Dirk, Just a quick note to say thank you for your very kind comments about our resort and especially about our staff. Yes, they are “fabulous” and we are all very pleased to hear that your stay was a complete success. C’mon back. We we will try to surpass your last stay with us. Thank you again, More

“Staff is so friendly!”

I feel as if Costa Sur is a hidden gem! The scenery from any room you book is priceless. As you stand on your balcony, you have Los Arcos to your south and the lovely Puerto Vallarta skyline to your north. Lots of warm hospitality thrown in to add to the overall pleasure of your trip. The room staff are... More

“Would have been ok, had we not all gotten ill”

We received an awesome deal on our room here via a Living Social deal. We were in PVR for a wedding and multiple sets of guests also stayed here. We had a one bedroom suite in the updated tower.

We were very sorry to hear about your health problems during your trip to Mexico – nothing is worse than an illness that affects everyone in a group traveling together.

“Decent value for the money”

I would actually give it a 3.5, not superb, but not bad either. Nice looking place - sort of. It's like an old building got upgraded, but without much attention to detail. For example there's marble countertops, with sloppy installations. New paint, but painted right over loose panels without tidying them up first. Our floor stunk of fertilizer in the... More
