What’s special about this resort
There’s a lot to love about the Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta. You can start with the private beach that’s nestled in a cove surrounded by cliffs, making the resort feel secluded and hidden from the rest of the world. Next up is the wonderful amenities – from the five sparkling pools to the oceanfront fitness center. There’s plenty to do, and the dedicated entertainment team works hard to provide fun for all ages. Perhaps best of all is the large selection of dining options that range from local Mexican fare to exotic Vietnamese dishes. A total of ten restaurants and bars will keep even the pickiest eaters and most discerning foodies happy.

What to do
Make sure to pack your sunscreen, because you’ll be spending a lot of time in the sun between the beautiful beach and five sparkling pools. An adults-only infinity pool has a swim-up bar and casual atmosphere for mingling. The family-friendly pool is where your kids will want to hang out all day long. And make sure to checkout the pool where all the action happens: pool volleyball, themed parties, and live music and DJs.
There’s no shortage of things to do on and near the beach. Go sightseeing from a kayak or toss around some horseshoes with a few friends. If you’re lucky, you will even spot some dolphins and whales from the shore. For a more up close and personal experience, you should consider a whale-watching excursion the whole family will love!
Evenings at the resort are never dull – catch a brilliant display of traditional Mexican folktales, be wowed by incredible acrobatic performances, and end the night with a dazzling fireworks show.
What to eat
Take your taste buds on an adventure with cuisine ranging from local Mexican food to flavors from all around the world. Four specialty restaurants, an international buffet, a cafe, and four bars are all at your disposal.
For your classic Mexican dishes prepared with the freshest local ingredients, visit the Casa Grande, where you’ll be welcomed by a warm hacienda-inspired interior. Try the enchiladas or cater to your personal taste at the taco station. At the Italian MelanZane, you can indulge in fine pasta dishes like their famous oven baked lasagne while a sommelier helps you find the perfect wine to go with your meal.
Go bold or go home – try daring dishes at Puerza, where the menu contains Vietnamese and Thai-inspired items. Enjoy flavorful noodle dishes, octopus skewers, and even fried ice cream. Make sure to reserve a table at Blaze, the outdoor steakhouse set right on the beach. The gorgeous scenery and amazing food will make for an unforgettable evening.
Never go hungry at the Vivaz international buffet, and never go without a drink in hand at one of the four bars. Head to the sports bar for game nights, the pool and beach bars for casual days spent in the sun, and the tequila bar for tastes of the region’s finest tequilas.
