Puerto Vallarta suits a stay built around slowing down, and these three all-inclusive resorts each have an on-site spa to anchor it. They suit couples, friends and families who want treatments, pool time and easy dining in one place. Beyond the spa, each one takes a different approach, from a Mexican-style hacienda to an oceanfront base with water sports.
Every resort here has an on-site spa or wellness center, and we looked at what surrounds it: massage services, fitness, pools, dining and activities. They appear in the order shown below.
