Playa Los Arcos  

Sometimes, to get style and comfort you have to compromise on the traditional touches that remind you where you are. But not at Playa Los Arcos. Sitting on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, this family-run hotel captures the true essence of Hacienda living. Cue rustic-style furnishings, white washed walls and terracotta-tiled flooring. In fact, such is their dedication to bringing you an authentic Mexican experience here - the staff even wear traditional uniforms. And this attention to detail is evident in the quality of service, too. Everything you need is right at your fingertips because the friendly team here go above and beyond to make sure your stay is one you'll never forget.



Just because you get a flavour of the real Mexico though, doesn't mean you'll have to do without your comforts. Take the bedrooms. Tastefully decorated in a colonial Mexican-style, they don't scrimp on the space and all have either balconies or terraces for you to relax on. And ranging from simply chic to out-and-out elegant, there's something to suit every budget. The restaurants follow suit. Mi Pueblito serves up Mexican and international specialities on a romantic terrace edged along the ocean. Or you can go gourmet at Kaiser Maximilian, which has a menu of European inspired dishes.



It's a cinch filling your days at Playa Los Arcos. For starters, there are three swimming pools dotted about the tropical gardens, all with plenty of sunning space and the mandatory swishing palms. Then there are all the activities. Take your pick from sports like beach volleyball. Give Spanish lessons a go. Or try some of the watersports down on the shores. With everything pretty much to holiday perfection here - staying put 24/7 is all too tempting. But with downtown Vallarta just a five minute stroll away, it's worth making a break to check out the shops, bars and restaurants here.



For a getaway with home-from-home comforts and a traditional twist – look no further than this unique hotel. Sometimes you can have it all.
