We managed a discount last minute Puerto Vallarta package to the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita. In truth the discount was the bonus, because we fully intended to go there anyway, and pay the full price, but thanks to some work online, we got a huge discount. A quick thank you to The Vacation Bargain Finder, details of which can be found at http://www.worldwidevacationspots.com/pages/Vacation-Bargain-Finder.html

We stayed for five nights in a casita, which although it wasn’t an ocean view, it was still lovely, with a king-sized bed, fantastic marble bathroom, big outside terrace, and great extras, in fact everything you would expect from a Four Seasons Resort, and yet something indefinably more, possibly the big plasma screen television!!

The service in the resort was first class, always there when you wanted something, very willing to make sure it was to your satisfaction. When we lay on the beach the hourly ‘visits’ were always awaited with anticipation as we savoured smoothies, ice cream, cold towels, fresh fruit. The beach is great, clean, clear water, and no difficulty in getting sun beds or umbrellas.

We loved the infinity pool, and the views, and again, there wasn’t any difficulty at all getting sun beds, which is quite a change from other resorts we have stayed in. Additionally the beautiful grounds were kept immaculately clean.

The food was an experience not to be missed, and we ate in all the restaurants and didn’t have a bad meal once. We both particularly enjoyed the Bahia grill restaurant right on the beach. We both appreciated the efforts made to cook the food as you wanted it, not exactly as the menu described it, and that is very unusual in our experience.

The spa and fitness room were well laid out, and I took some exercise almost every day, and again the supply of cold towels and water brought to the equipment you were working out on was a great joy.

Finally, The Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita is the type of resort that never feels crowded even when full. The prices for food and drink are extremely high but so are the resort’s standards.

You can find a discount last minute booking by doing a little work, and it will be so worth it!!!
