  Excellent resort for a memorable relaxing holiday

  We spent a week at the Armony Marival Resort (February 23 to March 2, 2025) and enjoyed every minute of it...even the 2.5 hours membership sales pitch, thanks to Virginia! The landscapes, the sunsets, the whale shows, the rooms, the restaurants, the pools, the beach, the bars, the spa and all the activities we participated in were absolutely amazing! Food was delicious and drinks were top notch. I truly enjoyed the daily wellness program: morning yoga/stretching with Nicole (NRG2GO); Tai Chi with Andre; Watsu and Singing Bowls class with Victor and Wendy (Gestación Emocional Armónica); ice bath challenge; hydrotherapy circuit and massage (Spa). All the staff was friendly, professional, attentive and happy to help. Special shout out to: Jose Carlos (Lobby); Andre, Haniel, Brenda, and Guillermo (Entertainment Team); Fabian Rodriguez (Blend); Abraham, Evelyn, Christopher and Iberia (Spa); Fernando and Jorge (Essence); Juan and Jesus (Divum); Manuel, Anahi, Catherine, Saira, Asuciena, Omar, Rosario and Gabriela (La Brise); Mario (pool server) and Jaime (Beach). We will definitely return!

  Loved the Staff and Resort!

  My daughter (22) and I stayed at Armony Marival February 28-March 4th. We loved the resort! The views are beautiful! Whale watching from the inifinity pool, volleyball in the Armony pool, yoga, beach walks, bingo, drinks, and more! The room was clean, shower had good pressure and hot water, the air was cold, and a ceiling fan. The mini-fridge was well stocked and the bed was comfortable. The resort is primarily older adults, coupled up. We didn't mind because we were there to relax and this place was perfect! Plenty of comfortable pool loungers every day. We soaked up the sun and read books while chatting with other guests. Daily activities included yoga, water aerobics, pool volleyball, and live music by the pool. The staff was EXCELLENT. Guirremo "memo" does a great job chatting with guests and leading the water aerobics. He is very personable and clearly loves his job. Andre hosted bingo with enthusiasm and lots of guest interaction. The stars of the show were Miguel and Diego bartending the pool bar. They were so fun and the drinks were fabulous. Angel was the best server we had at the pool. Constantly checking on our needs and keeping the drinks flowing. The food was "meh" at best. The breakfast buffet was wonderful! Fresh tacos, an omelet station and plenty of options. The pool menu was good too. Highly recommend the chips and guacomole. Beyond those two options for dining, the others were not good. Limited menus, reservations required, and just not top notch as expected from this level of a resort. Room service was free and rocked! The room service was fresh and quick. We did not visit the spa. Also, we were immediately hit up to attend an "owner" presentation to buy into the "club". We declined. We booked our transportation through the hotel and probably could've just got a taxi. We booked whale watching through the hotel but it was really through Vallarta Adventures. We should have booked direct through the Vallarta Adventures to save money. The excusion was the BEST! While there, we book for a couple days later for swim with the Sea Lion. We did not go through the hotel. The taxi was 500 pesos each way and about a 35 minute ride. We loved the area and felt safe at all times, two women traveling along.

  Love this resort!

  I travelled with my husband and we had a fabulous time. The resort was amazing, staff, food, cleanliness, all terrific! There are some minor things I will point out, but remember I loved the resort and will deff go back Blend coffee bar, had fabulous pizza for lunch and dinner as well as the other things we tried. Coffee in the morning not so much, we found the staff not to be friendly or accommodating, we just went to the buffet and asked for coffee, latte, cappuccino whatever we wanted, they were always friendly and accommodating. The resort has different levels of stays, all inclusive, members, VIP etc. Each level wears a different color bracelet, we were all inclusive but we still had to wait for a check after our meals which I found annoying, waste of time for all. The check would have a price and then total would be $0 we would sign our name and add room number, not sure if the real purpose was to prompt you for a tip or not, we always leave a tip we didn't need a check to be reminded. The buffet was closed almost every night was dinner (not sure is this a normal schedule or not) so your options for dinner were limited, 2 a la crate restaurants which required reservations that you have to make daily between 11-12, room service or Blend coffee bar having another restaurant or having buffet open nightly would be a bonus. The chair game is real, I felt like there were not enough chairs at the main pool for the number of people, we are early risers and its a good thing because if you came looking for a chair at 9 or 10 there were none left, I did see one of the staff removing stuff from chairs if there were not being occupied but rahter saved which I appreciated, there have signs everywhere no saving chairs, after an hour items would be removed. The beach was amazing, soft sand good for walking, lots of whales this time of the year, the resort is remote off the beaten path but cabs or uber are easily accessible

  Perfect destination wedding experience!

  My husband and I just got married at Marival Armony and we had a wonderful experience! Our wedding coordinator, Lidia, was incredible. I do not love wedding planning and at times only had vague ideas of what we wanted and Lidia was able to turn those ideas into a wedding day more beautiful than we could have ever dreamed of. When we decided relatively last minute that we wanted an MC/DJ - she handled it. When a couple days before we added an extra guest to the list - she handled it. The flowers, the food, the decor, the service at the reception and the view were all perfect. We spent 10 nights at the resort. We booked an ocean view suite and had an incredible view. The staff from check in to check out were all so kind and professional. We did not have a bad meal or a subpar drink the entire time we were there. Drink and food service at the pool were exceptional. The spa offerings are extensive and I enjoyed both treatments I had, not to mention the hair and makeup that was done for the wedding turned out beautifully. The only minor disappointments during our stay were that getting dinner reservations could be a challenge if we weren't at the reservation desk right when it opened and one night at dinner the service was very slow. We could see that the staff was hustling and guessed that it might be more of an understaffing issue than a lack of caring. Also I thought it was a little silly that the towel stand opens after the pool opens and closes before the pool does. There's also not a lot of late night activity, the sports bar was pretty dead most of the time but the bar off the reception area is open late so we had somewhere to hang out. The resort offers a full calendar of activities during the day. We really enjoyed the sound meditation and watsu aquatic therapy. And the ice bath was a very fun challenge! Overall our experience at Marival Armony was wonderful. We're normally on-the-go/budget travelers but we knew that wasn't what we needed for our wedding. We had a fantastic trip, our guests have had nothing but good things to say. I would definitely recommend this resort for a wedding or for a romantic getaway.
