- This is an overview review of the Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta resort. It is our third time going to a Vidanta, but the first time at Nuevo Vallarta. The resort is great and definitely lives up to the quality of the Vidanta Riviera Maya. We had the opportunity to use almost every pool in the resort due to having both Grand Luxxe and Grand Mayan bracelets (long story) and were very happy with our experience as a whole. I will definitely return.
Also great video! most informative on the web.
I cannot wait! I will be there in October! Whoo Hoo!
We used your review prior to going to vidanta. It was a great help in deciding which vidanta resort to go to!
Thanks for sharing all the info! Very helpful
We are heading to Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta Dec 5. Thanks for your tips. Very helpful.
There are trundle beds in the Grand Luxxe units. We are currently staying at one. We visited both Walmart and La Comer. One difference at all Vidanta resorts is depending on the Unit you are staying at can limit access to restaurants, pools and beach facilities.
New subscriber. Excellent Video!!! 🎉🎊👍Great information! Going there next month. Very useful 👌Greetings from a Mexican in Canada 🇲🇽🍁🇨🇦
Great video. I will be staying in Vidanta in September. From what I understand you used RCI to book your stay. I'm guessing you are not a member of the resort then.... Maybe one day I will run into you and your family.
Nice review. We own at Nuevo, but we seldom stay there. Just too big. Best part is the Thursday night fiesta and tubing down their man made river.
How were you able to access the Lux kids pool?
Hi! I'm planning to use my RCI points this coming June 2022, but i'm not sure which one should i pick, The Grand Bliss or The Grand Mayan 1 bedroom. In our group we have 3 adults, 1 senior and 2 kids. So can you recommend which place should i pick based on restaurant location and swimming pools for the kids? Hope to hear from you soon. Ofcourse we want to save money just like you did in this video.
We paid $499 +$213 for upgrade and $150 resort fee.
Where do you get the link on the maps and info? Is that only once you check in? I have traded my timeshare from a different location to try them out for a week and I am seeing mixed reviews.
good video,,, I'm an owner and have to beg for a ocean view, yet people visiting without get ocean view,,, it pee's owners off... but it is a great resort. You were also "lucky" to utilize the Luxxe and Bliss pools, as an owner, you shouldn't, however We visited prior to your video, therefore this must of changed. I know for a fact, Vidanta is struggling to sell "timeshare's" for the Luxxe and Bliss, so probably why you got to use their pools. Not too sure if you're owners or not, but you're very fortunate for Ocean Views Rooms. Good video thou and you're all bang on. If you're booking on points etc, that's probably why you get the view. The timeshare presentation are 90mins long, you don't have to stay 1min past that, and you still receive the benefit and the discounts, it pisses them off, that's the best part.
My wife and I are going to Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta at the end of February I would like to know how hard is it to get off property to local restaurants. I did hear you mention walk down beach to marina
Very I formative! We will be there on Tuesday bid on it at a college sports auction. Paid way more then 2200 for the week at the Grand Luxxe but the $$ went to a good cause. It is part of the ambassador program does that mean I will have to pay an additional $900 when we get there?
Great recap! Do you know if the Salum area is open to the public? Or is it for guests only?
Everything inside the resort is for guests only.
I loved all the info, just nothing about the beach ⛱️ was it accessible, clean, crowded, safe?
Going this Week for 3 weeks. Have been there 5yrs ago had to walk along the ocean to get to Eddie’s. Did not like that at night. Can you walk through the resort to a lite road that would feel safer?
The trundle beds are also in the Grand Luxxe. Were you in the Grand Mayan or Grand Luxxe? You look like you were in the Grand Luxxe but I haven't been into the Grand Mayan, only Grand Bliss and Grand Luxxe.
My son and I are going in a few months and I’ve never been to Mexico before! Am I able to pay in the resort with my credit card? Are pesos needed at all?
Credit card and US cash are totally welcome. Have a great trip!
Of all 3 vidanta hotels you stayed, which was the best for a 20-something couple okay with spending money? :)
Thanks for all the valuable information and your pricing for your two bedroom suite. For the price you mentioned ho many nights was this 2 bedroom suite for? We have been spending 7 nights at the Villa del Palmar flamingos Nayarit for $1,400.
Wow, we stayed at Villa Del Palmar a few years ago, $400 for the week. Didn't know the rooms go for up to $1,400.
@@deanguy66 take a look at the pricing of their "one bedroom" unit. Which includes two full bathrooms, jacuzzi tub in bedroom, fully stocked kitchen with full size fridge. This unit would not sell at $400 a week.
Hi! Out of all the Vidanta properties you have visited, which one is your favorite? Thank you!!!
I think PV is my favorite but they’re all great!
@@GabrielFamilyAdventures Do you mind telling us why you like Nuevo Vallarta more than Riviera Maya? I can't choose! I'm planning to go next March.
Thank you so much for your reviews - I have watched this one and the review of Riviera Maya. We have a chance to use a time share at either resort. Would you recommend one over the other. We have 3 kids. Thank you so much!
wondering the same thing. I hope she responds
I have a time share with Vidanta I feel the Nuevo resort is more kid friendly but both are great resorts.
How many bathrooms does the 2 bedroom have?
Im staying at the Grand Mayan and friends are staying at Mayan Palace. Any way to "sneak" a couple extra kids into water park?
Hello, for a week stay what do you think wild be an estimated food & Beverage come out to for 2 adults
Really, really depends on your eating and drinking habits, at Vallarta ask if they the meal plan or other pre payed plans.
I just found your videos because I’m looking for a good cruise for my girlfriend and I, but what are you booking the cruises with? I can’t find prices or anything like that
I usually narrow down my search online and then compare the prices that I find online to what my good friend can find since she is a travel agent and can sometimes get discounts, fun upgrades and/or in-room perks. If you're not traveling with kids I recommend Celebrity or Royal Caribbean (I actually recommend RC for everyone because it's great). If you want to see what kind of deals my friend can find you can contact her here:

@@GabrielFamilyAdventures what websites do you use?
Hello what would you say the pros and cons of the Acapulco location vs the nueva vallarta location are?
Nuevo Vallarta is way bigger, so Acapulco is more accessible for people who can’t walk as much. The water slides are better in Nuevo Vallarta, I guess they’ve invested more in that and it was remodeled more recently. They are also building a kind of amusement park in Vallarta, so that will totally be a pro. But both of them are amazing and totally worth it.
The amusement park will be Cirque Du Soleil, but they've been working on it for quite a few years, always pushing back the opening date.
Nice to hear you are a regular visitor of my country. I am very sorry to read that you had a bad time in the pools, I hope next time Vidanta guys fix that issue. Come back again to Mexico as soon as you can!
Do they offer all inclusive
At 01:35 I see the menu prices and they look insanely expensive if it's all in US$. Are they really over $100 per plate?
pesos lol
@@alndi3 oh goodness, thank you!
Hello are you still teaching spin
I would like your assistance
Happy to help- I responded to your email :)
How long is the walk from Grand Bliss 2 to Eddie’s?@@GabrielFamilyAdventures
Hi I make 18 dollars for hour am from Mexico 🇲🇽 do you think I can afford to stay there ?😏
I am from Mexico, so if you have never visited Pueto Vallarta I would look for a place to stay that is closer (walking distance) to El Malecon. You will enjoy all the great food Mexico has to offer way better if you stay near El Malecon and will save a lot of money on taxi rides (unless you have your own car). If you've been to Vallarta a number of times and just want to relax in a really nice, safe and secure place, Vidanta is the place. My family has enjoyed Vidanta for the last 18 years. We've been there so much that when we enter the resort and into our room, we feel like we are home once again.
Now as far as the price, Vidanta can be a little pricey once you adds the cost of the unit and the food. Depending on the size of you family, the units can be shared with another family. Many times it is my wife, my two kids and I.... and my wife's sister and her 4 kids. Adults sleep in the bedroom and kids sleep in the living area. There is plenty of room for all.
Now to answer your question... YES you can afford to stay there. You might need to set a vacation savings jar and put all your loose change there but it will be worth it. We would save all year so that we could enjoy our one week a year vacation. And even though we could stay at many other more economical locations we always came back to Vidanta.
Were you mandated to wear masks?
Beautiful grounds, great pools , lazy river. Everything is crazy expensive, way to big almost impossible to leave the resort. They make it super hard. Would never stay there now. Way nicer place to stay for less. Get out try real mexican food
Don't walk run
