Latest reviews on Ameca's beaches

Guayabitos beach
8 Nathanial Smith

We stopped by to see how this beach compares to San Pancho, and it's clear that they're quite different. The beach was bustling with vendors, but didn't have the same trendy expat atmosphere as San Pancho. If you're looking for a more authentic cultural experience, Guayabitos is the spot. However, if you want to embrace your inner yogi and sip on some smoothies, San Pancho is the place for you. By the way, we had some amazing fish and shrimp on a stick, but we had to request it to be cooked fresh instead of buying pre-cooked shrimp of unknown age.

Nuevo Vallarta
8 Delaney Sullivan

We had an amazing time with our All-inclusive package! They provided a wide variety of food options, including plenty of gluten-free choices. The food was clearly labeled, allowing us to know exactly what we were eating. They also had a great selection of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. The resort grounds were stunning, and they even had a club for kids and teens. The staff members were incredibly friendly, polite, and professional. The entertainment was also fantastic! The only minor issue we had was the limited space in the bathroom for toiletry bags and other items. It would have been nice to have more counter space or shelves available.

Additionally, there is a cozy beach restaurant, the option to rent jet skis, and the opportunity to enjoy beachside massages. It's the perfect getaway from the bustling crowds.
