We are owners of PDS and have always enjoyed our stay, of course having a 2 bdrm corner suite with a view of the pool and the coast line to the north might have something to do with it. Rooms are always clean and yes the beds are somewhat firm, I survive and the staff is friendly and will always... more

Well as a few of you, after reading the reviews about this resort i was skeptical about our stay. But after arriving and getting such friendly attention from the staff, I admit my feelings were wrong about the resort. Yes it does need some renovations, which i hear they are going to do. but the service made up for it.... more

If you enjoy staying at an early 1980s Motel 8 off a noisy interstate in the US then you will feel right a home here. The hotel staff first off lied about the hotel being renovated, it is NOT. Next the hotel room smelled moldy and was generally very shabby. The bed was the worst of all and I'm still... more

My husband and I are owners at all the Playa del Sol Resorts. We have only ever traveled to Costa Sur due to the fact that the entire resort is feet from the ocean. Every room has a full view of Banderas Bay. Yes the rooms are a little outdated, but the owners are waiting for the former Costa Vida... more

The first night we arrived the room smelled pretty bad and it was blazing hot. We complained and switched rooms the next day. The rooms are somewhat run down and the towels and bedding are pretty old. The staff was not very friendly. We had several experiences with staff being less the helpful and sometimes they were just rude. Of... more

My wife are owners at PDS Grand, but we wanted to stay closer to town so we stayed at Costa Sur. It is odd what PDS considers a 5 star gold crown resort. The decor is dated, but the room we had (1102) was was ok despite that. The view from the room was amazing, literally amazing. I have stayed... more

Our entire family stayed at the Playa Del Sol Costa Sur for 8 wonderful days of sunshine & fun! In preperation for our trip, I read all the reviews for this establishment and was actually a little worried about what our stay would entail. Upon arriving at the hotel we were greeted with a refreshing "Welcome margarita" and not one... more

This was our 8th visit to Puerto Vallarta. Initially, we were a little hesitant staying so far away from downtown but that was not a problem. We normally take the bus everywhere in PV, however, at Costa Sur we would take the bus into town and a taxi back, usually with groceries and stuff, for about $5. We stayed for... more

The Costa Sur is an ok place for the price. But really, don't expect much for the money. You have to take a taxi to get anywhere into where action going on in town, and to any resturants. The view is beautiful being right on the beach. And the room had strong air conditioning? I guess thats good, espeically in... more

This is a warning to anyone thinking of buying timeshare while in Mexico. Please do not act on a whim and do lot's of research beforehand. See a lawyer before signing any contract. Do not sign anything before getting a lawyer. We were caught up in a timeshare scam with Playa Del Sol. more
