Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa

This was our second visit to Garza Blanca and it was just as wonderful this time as last. The resort is very nice with a small beach, relaxing pools, and tasty restaurants which had plenty of vegan options for us. But what really makes this place special is the staff. Every single one of the dozens of staff members we interacted with were friendly, gracious, and welcoming. We were treated like VIPs throughout our stay. I want to give an extra shout out to the folks at Blanca Blue, the restaurant off the main lobby. After only our second buffet breakfast we were not only greeted by name, but our desired Bloody Marias were placed in front of us without asking and within moments of taking our seats. Thanks especially to Jorge, Pablo, Mario, Junior, and Omar. They all went out of their way to make sure we had a perfect vacation. Hopefully we’ll be able to return next year!

Resort and service were amazing! Alma Garcias was attentive and went above and beyond making us feel like the only newlyweds in the world

Bocados is our favorite restaurant at Garza Blanca in Puerta Vallarta, and tonight was the best of the best. Julian and Ricardo, our exceptional waiters, made the meal memorable. We were treated like we were the only people in the restaurant. We’re returning in several nights and will request Julian and Ricardo to crown our visit to Garza Blanca.

Jose, at the pool and everywhere else, was a great employee. He was very friendly and made sure everything was excellent.

We loved our family vacation to Garza Blanca. This was our second stay and we can’t wait to go back. We absolutely love the beach with protected water, perfect for kids, parents and grandparents. Our favorite part of the day was lounging by the ocean and being served by Rigoberto Guiterrez. He served us all week with a smile, remembering our favorite orders. He was so kind and helped all of us unwind and enjoy our days to the fullest. While there were a few setbacks during our stay (construction on the beach, difficulty with check in ), management was very receptive to feedback and helped to make our stay extra special. If you can, don’t miss the personalized dinner on the beach, it was unforgettable. Our kids have said since our first stay this is their favorite hotel ever!
