Want to Vacation in Mexico! Then there is no better place to stay than the Vidanta Resorts!
My Timeshare levels has access to the Riviera Maya, Nuevo Vallarta, Puerto Penasco and Acapulco.
Check in is Monday to Friday. I have a two bedroom with adjoining door to rent. I do NOT have access at Easter or Christmas though all other dates are open for booking based on availability. I have three weeks open for bookings. This is not an all-inclusive resort. Please look at the Vidanta website for more information.
Each location offers you a different look of Mexico and it's culture.
The resorts are Beautiful and Well Maintained.
The resorts offer beach and pool access. Many onsite restaurants of various cuisines! For the fitness people a gym as well as running routes around the resort. For a fee you can play golf on their world class courses. There is a central building which offers a market to buy food, drinks, alcohol, clothing, personal items and much more!
I personally have stayed at both Riviera Maya on the Caribbean Ocean side and Nuevo Vallarta on the Pacific Ocean side.
The Vidanta Riviera Maya is approximately 30 min for the Airport. You are met by the Resort Shuttle which will take you directly to the Resort. At the resort you will be offered a Welcome Drink and will be assigned to your room. Each guest will have a bracelet which allows them to purchase everything on the resort and have it charged to their room so lock away your wallet in the room safe and enjoy.
There are plenty of restaurants on site with various cuisines. Including a yogurt station with various toppings to enjoy.
The pools are big with lots of lounge chairs. Happy hour is usually for 11-1! You can also participate in all the pool activities with the Vidanta Staff leading exercise classes.
In the evening you can stroll along the various beautifully lit board walks with relaxing music playing in the background or enjoy the evening at Santuario where there are various performers to entertain you.
Looking for a Special Evening you can purchase tickets to see Joya at the Cirque du Soleil performance center. You have 3 choices to see the show as a dinner theater experience or a seat with Hors d' Oeuvres or just a seat to watch the show!
The resort has lots to offer on site as well as off site. You can book various excursions thru the resort.
At the Nuevo Vallarta you are a 20 min shuttle ride from the airport. The Mayan Palace room are located in the central part of the resort with easy access to La Plaza where you can purchase groceries, alcohol, breads, chocolates and more. I usually have breakfast here at Sweet Paris for their delicious crepes! The Main pool is not a far walk along the many board walks.
There are several restaurants on the resort for everyone's taste. Remember to book your reservation with the connoisseur which are located in you building.
Here as well you can leave your wallet in the safe and use the bracelets to have everything charged to your room.
At the main pool you can relax on a lounge chair and enjoy the sun or you can participate in a Vidanta staff lead exercise class. Happy Hour is usually from 11-1 and you can also order food.
Just steps away from the main pool is a large beach to enjoy a swim in the ocean or where you can do your morning walks. There is walkway which the runners can enjoy using for their runs.
You can book your off site excursions right on site. I personally gone on several excursions including parasailing, rhythms of the night highly recommended and Extreme Adrenaline which includes zip lining, rappelling, side by side jeep driving and sky diving simulator!
An Excursion not offered by the resort I high recommend for the animal enthusiast is the Puerto Vallarta Zoo. Its an hour drive by taxi which cost approx. $40 one way but worth it. At the Zoo you can choose to just pay for admission to the zoo which they give you a bag of treats to feed the animals or you can pay $100 US and you will get admission to the zoo, bag of treats for the animals a free gift and you can enjoy some time playing with a baby lion and tiger which I had the opportunity to do! It was Awesome! Have fun feeding the various animals especially the giraffe.
