Bad food in the hotel

I wouldn't recommend the hotel, the food is not good, I would rather stay the next time in a more expensive hotel with better food, the room was ok, swimming pool also ok, the drinks at the bar are fine but is so unpleasant about the food...I qould give this hotel a 6 out of 10, no more.

very friendly

The hotel is nice, but what I liked the most was the staff, they were all friendly and very helpful. I will stay at the hotel again. The food was good they had different variety for dinner. Breakfast was mostly the same. Lunch was good to. Overall it was great. ONLY ONE THING I WILL RECOMMENED DO NOT GO TO PUERTO VALLARTA ON THE RAIN SEASON. WE WENT IN SEPT 2008 AND COULD'T GO INSIDE THE OCEAN IT WAS DIRTY. BECAUSE IT RAINS SO MUCH. THE RAIN SLIDES DOWN FROM THE HILLS WHERE THERE IS A LOT OF MUD AND IT GOES TO THE LAKES AND CANAL AND THEN IT GOES TO THE OCEAN IT WAS DIRTY AND IT THERE WAS GARBAGE SO GO TO PUERTO VALLARTA BETWEEN NOV-MAY. OTHER THEN THAT EVERYTHING WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE

recent stay

If you are looking for a room dated 1960's, come in and have a good time. Asked for fresh towel, got it after 4 hours of calling. Most staff dont talk english, beach is rocky and not much water activity. Food is ok but not great.

Good Experience

This was our first trip to Puerto Vallarta. We were vacationing on a budget, so we weren't quite sure what to expect. Overall, the few days we were there were good. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and quite adequate. Although we enjoyed the food that we did eat at the hotel, we didn't feel that there were enough options available for an all-inclusive. My husband and I neither one are picky eaters. If you are planning on staying here with someone who IS, plan on spending your souvenir money on eating out!

There was a nice little shopping area right across the street from the hotel. The prices were every bit as good as we found in the neighboring flea markets, boardwalk area, and marina shopping areas. We were pleased with having that available so close!

My review of Canto Del Sol Plaza Vallarta All Inclusive

We enjoyed our stay at the Canto De Sol Plaza. I thought the food was average but the staff was very professional, the hotel was very clean, and we had a great time. We were a little bummed that the swim up bar was under construction but we still had fun!

Good value for your money

The Canto Del Sol was an enjoyable experience. The food was good, the room was adaquate (spent very little time there), the pool was fine, the beach was not very good(small), Drinks great, staff in most cases was very helpful. We stayed away from the time share people and saved ourselves a lot of time. We paid a few bucks for tours that we could have gotten discounted but did not feel our precious time was worth it. We utilized the bus to go downtown and to the Marina (50 cents) and the Taxi to and from the airport. Tours, massages, ATM, etc can be obtained just across the street at dicounts from Hotel prices.

very unsafe Horrible customer service

From the very beginning the hotel service was atrocious.The next day, my wife's birthday we had an issue with security as someone stole some of my wife's items from within the room while we were out to dinner. Apparently they do not lock the community doors that are attached on both sides of the room to the rooms next door. When we learned that our doors were not locked and that we had some items missing we reported this to security. Security and the hotel services were disputing our claim from the onset. It took them one hour from our initial call to even send someone to check on the doors. They put us in a different room without community doors but that was the extent of their assistance in this matter. The stolen items were never reimbursed, we lost more than a day in dealing with this matter, filing police reports etc., and they never even apologized for the incident basically insuing that we were making the whole story up. We felt unsafe in this hotel and were dissapointed in the staff and service. We do not recommend this hotel.

Great Time

My friends and I went to Puerto Vallarta for spring break last week and we stayed at the Canto del Sol. It was a nice hotel and good value for the money. It was well maintained and a nice property. The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly from the time you walk into the hotel. The food at the hotel is good. It isn't five star quality but by no means is it bad. There is a buffet restaurant which usually has a variety of food to eat and the poolside snack bar which serves the same food every day. The a la carte mexican restaurant has amazing food. If you stay at this hotel, do not miss the opportunity to eat here. It was soo good. The rooms are nice and well-kept. Before I went on the trip, I had read that many of the beds are very hard. However, I disagree with this. The beds were very comfortable and there was no problem with them. The pool was nice and warm, and there were always activities going on around that area. The beach was nice to come and sit on. They provide you with chairs whenever you go down on it. The hotel location is also good. It was only a five minute cab ride to downtown PV. Overall, it was a great experience, and I have no complains about the hotel.

Nightlife tip: Short drive from hotel

If you want to get a really good massage - probably one of the cheapest too - walk outside of the hotel and go to the shops that are under Villas Vallarta, there are few places that offer massages there and they are really goood.

friendly vacation spot

Canto Del Sol was very comfortable, clean and met my expectations. Staff was friendly and provided excellent service involving meals, bars and maid service. A couple nights we were kept awake by noisey neighbors but otherwise beds were comfortable and we slept well. I was very impressed with security at the hotel; they made us feel very safe throughout our stay. We enjoy our stay a great deal and would recommend it to others.

Good deal for the $

I would recommend this hotel to some, but not to others. The food is great, the staff is super friendly and courteous, the view is amazing. The rooms are a little rundown, not dirty but old and I just wish the air conditioning blew colder. I stayed 3 nights and loved the hotel, but I wouldn't send my parents there.

Go check out the town, eat at the street vendors. There's a lady set up outside the church who makes the best tamales I've ever had for a dollar.
