It took 3 days of cold showers and complaining until we finally got hot water.
The "all inclusive" and restaurant options are very misleading! The bar, restaurant and buffet are all the same area. You can order a la carte, but you have to pay half price. The "restaurant" is a 3 course meal that you can only go to with a reservation 24 hours in advance and with a voucher. We only got 2 vouchers for a 10 night stay. Buffet themes / meals were not listed/posted. We had to pay to eat at other restaurants twice because the menu at the buffet was not anything we would/could eat. If we knew in advance, we could have used our "vouchers" for those days.
Hours of the pool are only 10am to 10pm. Should be earlier at the very least.
Bar and buffet staff were all very friendly and welcoming.
View from the dinning area and infinity pool was beautiful...saw many wonderful sunsets over dinner.

Side of the hotel we were on needs to be upgraded, furniture and restroom was very outdated and old. Took a while to get warm water in the shower, toilet was clogged although we did not flush toilet paper. Food was delicious, bar hours need to be extended.

Playa Los Arcos is a great property. The location is great, situated close to many restaurants, bars and shopping. The buffet has many options to satisfy any appetite. Although small, we spent the majority of our time in the adult pool, with the ocean only steps away for swimming as well. The staff is amazing. Before our adult beverages were finished, we had another on the way. While I enjoyed my stay, I do not know if I would return. May sound harsh, but there were too many kids. Can’t really fault Los Arcos, though, as the sign does say it’s a family friendly property. My next trip to PVR will include a stay at an adults only resort. If you are traveling with children, this is a great place.

We loved the location of this property. It’s walkable to so many places. It is conveniently located to many restaurants, the Malecón, and we especially loved having convenient beach access. The food selection was good, the restaurant staff were great! The pool bar closes a little early but it is understandable! We had all inclusive but just FYI room service was not included. The only downside is that the rooms could use some updating.

This hotel is conveniently located to many attractions. We loved being so close to the beach! The staff were all friendly, there was a good selection of food. The rooms could use some updating. It was quite noisy for us as our room was situated along the streets. Overall it was a good stay.

We Love Playa Los Arcos! It's our second visit to this hotel and the staff are so amazing! Miguel, our beach/pool waiter is incomparable! He is simply the best! When we checked in initially, our room had a funky smell, so we were transferred to another room. Perfect! The AC wasn't as great, but it was still a fabulous room with a balcony & ocean view! The pool area is fab with 3 pools & a hot tub area. There is a pool for adults only, so no splashing into your drinks!! We choose to do the all-inclusive mainly for the beverages! Breakfast & lunch as well! We mostly hit the numerous taco stands throughout the city for dinner though. We did a walking taco tour the 1st night so we'd know where the great tacos were!! So many to choose from! When we come back again (& we will), we'll stay at Los Arcos. It's so close to everything and if we needed a taxi, the guys were there to call one for us. We had a wonderful vacation at Los Arcos.

Not a bad hotel but has some room for improvement. Definitely more on the family friendly side. It’s older but they keep the grounds up. Our room was VERY old and small so if you are expecting luxury accommodations this is NOT the place for you. The restaurant is decent and the bar options are okay. The bartenders at the pool area bar were great! Giving this property a three because our first night they ran out of towels. Literally there were no towels! The next day I called for towels three times and never got them so I went down to the front desk and they eventually sent someone to the room with towels. Also they ran out of pool towels. We stayed in room 430 which is on the fourth floor however the elevator only goes to the third floor so we had to walk up a flight of steps to get to our room. Overall I would probably stay here again on a quick 2-3 night trip but for anything longer I would book elsewhere.

My wife and I did all inclusive and there was always some food that we liked. Drinks were good and service was readily available. The hotel was a bit dated but that added to the charm of it. Location was fabulous. We hiked south along the cliffs and never felt it was unsafe anywhere. Our main complaint was if you spend the day on the beach loungers you will be constantly getting vendors every few minutes. Great place good times

So we stayed for one night and the next morning we ran! No way we’re going to spend 4 more nights with guests screaming and smoking outside our room all night and security coming up but then ignoring it. When we complained they said no security/manager until 10a ruining ou4 first day. The room was sub par with the door frame attached yet you could see daylight from around the frame so no caulking and an almost 2” opening on the bottom so the noise and smoke came right into our room. The ceiling was really low, the room was tiny and the hotel was sold out so there weren’t enough chairs by the pool and the lobby was so overcrowded it we could hardly get by. It’s an open air hotel so all rooms have a balcony which was nice but the hotel is a horse shoe shape so all the noise travels upwards. As for the all you can eat it the food was dry as it’s been sitting out in the buffet for hours and it’s just sub par like we got the leftovers from the costomers who ordered off the menu - that food looked good but it was way more money. The drinks were ok but very sugary. Unless you’re drinking a lot the all you can eat is moot as there are so many great restaurants and eateries and there’s not much else to do in PV so you’re stuck in the same boring hotel. The locations is great and the open dining room was nice. We found a place two doors down and 1/2 price, adult only with ocean views, completely new!
We complained, they could care less thank goodness we booked a/hotels.com
