Robbed by the staff
Well the first impression was good but then after the cockroaches started coming out it was a little discouraging but I was ok with that the view was amazing and the construction was going on 24-7 even on Xmas eve but that’s not the worst getting my car broken into and lots of personal items taken was a real bummer and It just happened to be that the cameras didn’t work in that area because of the construction and management did nothing about it but just gave me this oh well and I’m in a Volvo semi alarm had to go off and they did it when I went walking to the beach it was done by the employees I’ve stayed all over the place and never been robbed by employees usually it’s the locals so I wouldn’t recommend anyone staying here with all the construction debris loose balcony rails and missing tiles that you can stub your toes on I wouldn’t recommend this place ide go somewhere else not kid friendly at all no Covid safe practices either

Hotel Rustico
I'll be honest. It's under construction. But the rooms are clean and sheets fresh and the view is a multimillion dollar view. When you want South Pacific type water.. it's here. There is a stone built natural tide pool on the beach. The swimming pool is very clean and nice. There is cable TV, WiFI is strong in lobby but not so much in the room. If you can stand limited construction noise then this is a deal for the price. I love it. Shopping and food closeby in seaside village Boca de Tomatlan.

***DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTE*** the hotel is under construction. The pictures are nothing like what the hotel looks like . They literally put up boards at night to keep random people from walking in the property as it has no walls (looks like it’s being de gutted. Expedia should take down their listing !!!

Sixties vibe in a modern setting.
First room smelled so bad that it was uninhabitable. Moved to the Jimi Hendrix Suite which was much better. This must have been an incredible hotel back in the 60's/70's which has been allowed to rot in situ. Staff were well-meaning and helped as much as possible. The tide pool was amazing, I can just imagine Jimi and Janis chilling in the hot tub.

Great view, but had nothing else
The view From the balcony was magnificent. My suite kitchen had a sink and one glass. The sink outside the bathroom leaked all night onto the tile floor. The bathroom drain smelled like sewer. I had to keep the door closed. There were very big piles of dirty laundry in the hallways, The wifi only worked in the lobby and parking lot. The staff were really nice. The hotel is far from Puerto Vallarta.
