I’m not one to write a review and based off all their positive reviews everyone is definitely
On the same page. Our wedding was over a month ago and I’m still in awe. I already knew it was a nice Venue and I would be happy but physically being there just blew my mind. I can’t explain how everything was soooo outstanding. Can i rate it a “100” lol my expectations were overextended from bringing to end. All
Of our guests kept giving us (the couple) compliments about the venue, food, hospitality over and over again. The staff is so attentive, food is delicious. They said playa fiesta went above and beyond. From the moment I contacted playa fiesta 1/2022 all my exceptions were met. I didn’t turn into bridezilla because I felt so comfortable playa fiesta and knew I was in good hands. Anyone i hear that Is getting married the first thing I say is you NEED to get married at Playa fiesta. You will
Not be disappointed. I can go on and on as I’m still in awe from our wedding week. It was absolutely incredible.

I was looking for a private venue in Mexico where our friends and family could stay in one place without other guests at the hotel for our June 2023 wedding. When I found Hotel Playa Fiesta, it seemed to fit all of my criteria. The rooms looked beautiful, it was beachfront, and it was big enough to hold a lot of people. However, I had never planned a wedding and had never been to Puerto Vallarta, so I did not know what to expect! I was planning a huge life event in another country from my home in Colorado and felt like I was taking a leap of faith.

Well, I couldn’t be happier that I did! From the first conversations and planning sessions with Lindsay and Adam, the wonderful owners of Playa Fiesta, I was at ease. They had everything I needed and made planning a breeze. They had the florist, the hair and makeup artists, the DJ, and a selection of photographers and videographers from which I could choose. They were extremely responsive, quick to act, and so organized. Planning my wedding was low-stress and fun! BUT I HAVEN’T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE BEST PART!!

From the minute we arrived at the property, I was blown away. The service is outstanding, and it is even more beautiful than the photos can show. I was greeted by Gabi, who acts alongside Lindsay on the coordination team. She gives the greatest hugs! She and Tammy walked us through the hotel and made sure that everything was perfect for all the guests we had coming. The rooms are all a little unique but each one is beautiful. I was worried the standard rooms wouldn’t be as nice as the oceanfront suites, but they were gorgeous and didn’t feel like they were too small.

Let’s talk about the actual wedding now because it was a dream come true. Lindsay and her team coached us through every step, from the rehearsal to the reception. We had our wedding on Friday, per their recommendation, and I am SO HAPPY that we did! It was awesome to have a recovery day Saturday where everyone could still be together and soak in the magic of the wedding night. Every vendor they recommended went so far above and beyond. The flowers were gorgeous, the photographer and videographer we chose were awesome, the glam team made me and my bride squad look so good, and the DJ kept the party rocking!! A special shout out to Christy who is the lead hair and makeup artist – she did some Reiki for me on my wedding day because I was feeling a little nervous and it helped so much! She and Brenda made me feel so calm and cared for. Splurge for the fireworks, you won’t regret it!!

The staff went above and beyond for us. I already mentioned a few names, but Gabi, Tammy, Martin, Charly, Santana, Alejandro, Alexis, Pancho, Manuel, and Rico, with everyone else working alongside them, filled every request and need we had. I can’t forget to mention THE FOOD!! Oh my gosh, I ate so well. The breakfast is delicious, every menu item is incredible, the dinner buffets were outstanding, and the team made sure all our guests knew what they could eat per their dietary restrictions and food allergies. The cleaning staff also does the most incredible job. The rooms were cleaned daily, and the whole hotel is well kept. I was barefoot basically the whole week and never had dirty feet! The pool is the perfect temperature to lounge in all day, the ocean is steps away with a safe little cove for swimming, and the sand is insanely soft.

If you are on the fence, just stop and book this venue ASAP. You will be so happy that you took the leap of faith.

This review is well over due, but there truly aren't words that would give Hotel Playa Fiesta the justice it deserves. From the moment I reached out to inquire about having my wedding at Playa Fiesta to the moment my guests and I were leaving I truly felt like I was the only bride they were working with because they are so attentive and make you feel so special. I cannot say enough about how truly amazing Lindsay and Gabi are to work with. Planning a destination wedding can be stressful and I was initially hesitant and worried about communication/response times. However, my worries were quickly put to ease as Lindsay & Gabi truly blew me away with how quickly they would respond through email to all my questions/requests. They are truly the absolute BEST people to work with while planning a wedding. Throughout the process there were times where I did not feel I had the time to devote to planning a wedding due to work demands but they made the entire process stress free and simple. They provide you with a detailed spreadsheet (a type-A brides dream) to ensure nothing goes missed or unnoticed and keep you constantly updated with your guests booking information. They really make the process so simple and are always willing to work with you to ensure all of your needs are met.

The day we arrived at Hotel Playa Fiesta we were instantly blown away. The moment we got there Gabi was there to greet us and any worry I may have had was instantly gone.. You truly feel like royalty when you arrive as the staff is waiting to get you taken care of. Nothing will prepare you for how amazing the wedding suite is and how stunning the views are. I know for a fact that I had seen every photo ever posted of this venue and the photos TRULY do not do it justice. It is really the most beautiful place on earth with crystal blue waters, greenery galore, and beautiful mountains. The scenery is like no other and I spent every morning on our wedding suite balcony taking it all in and listening to the waves roll in. Playa Fiesta truly felt like our own little slice of heaven those two days before our guest arrived as we had the whole resort to ourselves with the most amazing staff taking care of us. Playa Fiesta was made that much more special when all of our guests arrived as I don’t think there is any other location on earth where you could bring 50 of your closest friends and family to one place and have it all just for you.

The food was absolutely SPECTACULAR- like seriously unreal and blew all expectations I had out of the water. The pesto pasta, chilaquiles, shrimp quesadillas, and chips and guac became a staple part of my diet for 4 days and left me dreaming of that food till this day. The staff is truly incredible and went above and beyond to get to know our guests and treated everyone like kings and queens. Thank you to Charly for making the most amazing drinks and for making me feel so special by calling me “his queen”. Thank you to Pancho, Alejandro, and Santana for always being so attentive to our guests and making sure everyone always had a drink in their hand. THANK YOU to Martin for making sure everything was always taken care of and that everything ran on time. He truly is a saint for always being so patient with our guests who wanted the party to keep going every night. All of our guests truly came to know and love Martin and even got him to dance on the dance floor with us for a song. The staff truly starts to feel like family as the week progresses and the staff at Playa Fiesta are truly one in a million.

By the time the day of the wedding arrived I truly felt so relaxed and had no doubt in my mind that it was going to be the best day of my life. Being up in the wedding suite all day Lindsay ensured myself and my wedding party had more than enough food and drinks to keep our party going. She constantly kept me updated with how things were progressing throughout the day and even assured me that my guests had left the pool to get ready (as almost everyone was partying at the pool all day).The hair and makeup team were INCREDIBLE and truly brought everyone’s visions to life. The day ran so smoothly that we were ahead of schedule and I got to walk down the aisle early- a testament to how well Lindsay and Gabi ran the day. Eder & Graham (Photography & Videography) were absolutely amazing to work with ensuring we got to enjoy our cocktail hour with our guests and were on the dance floor capturing all the fun us and our guests were having. The fireworks were the BEST decision I made in the planning process as our guests absolutely loved them and were stunned by them. After the fireworks, and 30+ Aggies being able to do the War Hymn, the party really got started with the DJ (Gabis Husband) curating the best lineup of dance music. It truly was the BEST wedding I could have asked for.

From start to finish, my week at Hotel Playa Fiesta was truly the most magical, special, stress free week of my life and I am so incredibly thankful to all of the people who helped make it happen. I don’t think many Brides get to say that their wedding went off without any stress but that is the experience you get when booking with Playa Fiesta. Getting to spend time in paradise with all of your family and friends was the biggest blessing of our lives and I would go back and do it all over again 100 times without changing a single thing. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart- I will be forever trying to convince my friends/family to get married here so that I can come back and relive it all over again.
