Just a three hour flight from Los Angeles, Puerto Vallarta is best known for its golden beaches, vibrant nightlife (if you’re into that) and luxe lineup of resorts. For an all-inclusive experience that’s entirely customizable, the Hilton Vallarta Riviera, All-Inclusive Resort stands out. While there are a number of ways to tailor the experience to individual preferences (more on that later), one thing is certain: waking up to views of the Bahia of Banderas and Pacific Ocean, as every single one of the hotel’s 444 rooms and suites has either a partial or full oceanfront view (plus a private balcony to enjoy it from). Beyond this throughline, customization is at the core of this Hilton property. Hilton Vallarta Riviera, All-Inclusive Resort: Accommodations With both adult and family wings, guests can curate the vacation’s vibes down to their accommodations’ location. Beyond this, rooms and suites can be filtered by preference: size, view (partial or full oceanfront), balcony type (standard or wrap-around) and whether or not the Enclave experience is included. Hilton describes Enclave as “an elevated experience” where guests “open the door to even more possibilities during their stay.” This upper room category includes private check-in and checkout, additional in-room amenities (welcome gift, upgraded minibar, souvenir beach bag, etc.) and the standout: Hilton’s Enclave Lounge. Open daily from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. on the resort’s 13th floor with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, the exclusive lounge has access to all-day snacks and coffee, premium evening drinks, a special breakfast, a private concierge service, a library space, computers and printing stations and TVs. Hilton Vallarta Riviera, All-Inclusive Resort: Food and Beverage Dining and drinks really are the highlight of any all-inclusive experience, and the Hilton thrives in this department. From Mexican to Sushi and Italian, the resort’s 12 gourmet dining and drink options cater to every guest’s tastebuds — and every guest’s vibes. Choose between casual buffets, lively cantinas, regional street food, live cooking, bustling bars and so on. See the full rundown of included food and beverage options here. Hilton Vallarta Riviera, All-Inclusive Resort: Entertainment While the Vallarta Riviera is conveniently located near downtown Puerto Vallarta, guests don’t need to leave the property to be entertained thanks to the resort’s nightly activities, shows and parties. These include DJ sets, silent discos, karaoke, live music, casino nights, fire and light shows, singing and dancing. There’s also day-time entertainment to suit guests of every age.
