Insider’s tip: My insider tip is to check out the resort’s many activities that are not as well known among visitors. For guests who like to stay active, we have #MoveWell activities like a running map that takes you on a 5k around the Marina Vallarta, and kayaks and paddle boards available on-site if you’re into water activities. There’s also a #SleepWell menu with dishes featuring foods that are known to help people get the best sleep.
