The "Save the Lounger" game gets worse every year.
We LOVE Secrets VB. We've been there every year for the past seven and it's our favorite Secrets. Everything about it exudes quality and we will continue to be loyal annual guests. Having said that I'd like to pass on some constructive criticism about the pool and beach area. The reserving of chairs at the pool and the beach has become completely out control and every year management makes less effort to stop the practice. My wife and I are early risers so we usually go to the beach before sunrise and wait for Market Cafe to open. When we get down there at 0530-0600 there are already towels and personal items placed on chairs. I watched one woman get over 15 books from the lending library and place them on various chairs at the pool and beach. When I questioned her about how important she and her friends must be she went into a profanity laced tirade about how it's her vacation and she'll do what she wants to. I mentioned this to the guard at the beach and he just shrugged his shoulders and admitted it was a problem, but he really couldn't do anything about it. This is very common at Secrets VB, much more so than other Secrets. The most infuriating thing is that rarely does anyone come down to the reserved chairs before noon. In many instances they use the pool most of the day and then get their reserved beach chair later in the afternoon. In the meantime guests that want to use the beach area are hesitant to remove items that have obviously been placed there only to reserve the lounger. This has got to stop. It's really putting a damper on many guests' vacation and there is constant conversation among the guests as to the ignorance of not only the people that do it, but the management that ignores it as well. It's an easy problem to fix. 1) Have the guest sign an addendum when they check in stating the policy 2) Don't put towels out before 0630 and have the guard notify guests of the policy when they see people reserving chairs. 3) Place signage on the palapas and in the pool area. 4) Take a pic with a time stamp and remove the items after an hour. Other resorts follow this procedure. Why doesn't Secrets VB ?

10/10
Our wedding at Secrets Vallarta Bay was truly a dream come true. From the moment we began planning to the very last song of the night, everything exceeded our expectations. Our wedding coordinator, Karla Cruz, was absolutely incredible. She was patient, organized, responsive, and so genuinely kind throughout the entire process. Planning a destination wedding can feel overwhelming, but Karla made everything feel seamless. She brought our vision to life and made sure every detail reflected exactly what we wanted. I felt completely supported and stress-free on the most important day of our lives. The resort DJ, Pablo, was also amazing! He created the perfect ambience from cocktail hour to the dance floor. The music was flawless, the transitions were smooth, and he kept our guests dancing all night. The energy was everything we hoped for. Secrets Vallarta Bay gave us the most beautiful backdrop, incredible service, and an unforgettable experience. Our wedding day was beyond perfect — truly a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. We are forever grateful. -Alex & Melissa

This resort is beautiful! The staff is incredible, the food is great and there is always something to do! I highly recommend booking in the preferred club. The room was GORGEOUS! We had a jet tub on our balcony and a stunning view overlooking both the pool area and the ocean. There is a private bar, buffet and exclusive access to their steakhouse. But above all else, around round the clock service! Our butler, Jose Becerra, was the highlight of our trip. He was so funny and personal and we will honestly remember him forever lol. We bragged the whole time to our friends about our butler, as they did not have one in their building lol. He was extremely helpful in booking reservations, excursions and even went out of his way to get us a bowl of rice when my friends phone fell in the water. 5 stars for Secrets Vallarta Bay and 5 stars for Jose 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
