Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Gaviota Vallarta
Calle Francisco I. Madero 176, 48380, Mexico
Simple rooms in this six-story low-rise have somewhat battered colonial-style furnishings; some have tiny balconies but only a few on the top floors have a partial ocean view. The small figure-eight pool in the middle of the courtyard is exposed but still refreshes. The two-bedroom apartments are poorly designed and have stiff Mexican furnishings. J&B Dancing Club next door provides Latin and pop music throughout the week.
PROS
- moderately priced rooms a block from the beach
- central location
- salsa club next door
CONS
- poor pool placement
- unattractive furnishings
- very small parking lot
