Best Pool in PV or Cabo?

Recommended Posts

Would love to spend the day relaxing by a beautiful pool with waterfalsl, swim up bars, the works. It would be nice if there were a great restaurant and bar nearby and on the ocean. Also would love to get a massage. Is this a pipe dream or does one exist.

We have always thought the the pool at the Marriott Casamagna (Marina Vallarta) was the best. http://www.marriott.com/hotels/photo-tours.mi?marshaCode=pvrmx&pageID=HWREC&imageID=0

 

They have a full compliment of restaurants to meet everybody's taste in food.

 

Here is a map of the Marina. For reference, the Marine Terminal (aka: Port) is located at the bottom of the map. http://vallartainfo.com/marina.html

 

Enjoy!

The easiest least expensive for all you are looking for is the El Cid in Mazatlan

The El Cid even has the waterfall

Cabo - Finnesterra (likely most of what you are looking for)

PV - Krystal (most popular in PV with cruisers, just the other side of the nearest high rises)

We walked over to the Krystal just last month. It`s a quick 10 minute walk from the ship (turn right leaving the port). Nice pools with a swim up bar. We strolled the beach, had beers poolside and you can get massages in the spa. There is no entry fee and there were several fellow cruisers and crew members enjoying the facilities.

Have heard Hotel Barcelo is a great place to spend the day. I understand it's 20 mins or so away from the ship, my question is how much for a taxi there and back for 3 adults? I emailed the hotel but never got a response. Wondering how much a day pass is. Have heard from several that it's a great way to spend the day off the ship. Website photos look fabulous. Anyone have any more info on it? Thanks so much!
