Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina is true to its name: The 96-room property sits on the edge of the marina. Whether guests are relaxing in the freshwater pool or sitting on their balcony, the picturesque setting is one to revel in. La Palapa, the on-site restaurant and bar, features outdoor tables and international and Mexican cuisine, while spa services, a mini-fitness center and babysitting services make for welcome extras.

  • Rooms and freshwater pool with views of the picturesque marina
  • Casual outdoor dining at La Palapa
  • Mini-fitness center
  • Massage and babysitting services upon request
Rooms
Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina rooms have artistic leanings, with bold floral designs and bright colors driving the theme. Oversized headboards bear intricate carvings, and linens and curtains burst with geometric or garden prints in colors such as blue, orange, red and beige. Guests choose from rooms with one king bed or two queen beds. The hotel makes the most of the marina location. All 96 rooms have either a terrace or balcony for enjoying views. Satellite TV, direct-dial telephones and bathrooms with showers are standard amenities. Ceiling fans and air-conditioning keep guests cool.
Features
The intimate Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina lures guests to its freshwater swimming pool, an oasis with prime views of the marina and plenty of loungers for sunbathing. Powerboat and fishing-boat rentals can also be arranged to enjoy the locals' favorite pastime, fishing. Free transportation to the beach and babysitting services are available upon request. A mini-fitness center allows patrons to ensure they don't miss a workout. When the mood strikes for getting pampered, massages melt the stress away.

Needs that something special

Good location, close to Marina. Rooms could use some updating. Nice bathroom but a bit small. Just paid $9 more and all four of us got a great breakfast (on site). It was okay to stay a night or two but that's about it. It served us but there are other places to try out, so I wouldn't go back there.

I had a blast

It's great for the price, close to a lot of things, if you need a cab they are a real close walk, without calling and waiting, and I mean a bunch of them around the marina.

Bargain for the price

We requested a room with a king size bed. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a very large room, with a large balcony overlooking the marina. The room was immaculately clean and the staff was efficient and super friendly. There are restaurants nearby and we were able to watch fireworks from the terrace overlooking million dollar yahcts. It was very close to the airport and the bus route. We took the bus to the Malecon and back the night we stayed there. They also have room service with a good menu. Best of all, there was a weekend special so we got the room at a great rate. Based on our experience I would reccommend it. I would definitely stay there again. But if you are looking for something fancy, this is not the place for you.

Take the bus to the Malecon, watch the sunset and walk around. Do your shopping there at the end of your trip. There are great bargains at the flea market there. People are friendly and helpful.
