Below Expectations. Not a terrible place, but does not match price point.
Pros:

The place was situated close to a small semi private beach so that was its main thing. Had the hotel been located one block away, it would simply not be worth the price paid considering similarly priced hotels with much better feel. Luxury price but youre only getting something a little better than Motel 8 with a view.

Cons:

The place was just Mehhh. The only thing that made it worthwhile is that the hotel is steps from the beach and its not a massive or overcrowded beach.

The rooms themselves were clean but the rooms looked just OK for the price point paid. I have stayed in PV many times and thought I'd change up the scenery just a little, but was not super happy with the experience overall.

Excelente ubicacion y playa
Pros:

La ubicacion, y la comodidad de las camas.

Cons:

Las toallas de la alberca muy delgadas, y me toco una sucia, y mi cuarto que era una suite de 2 recamaras, tenia un olor muy desagradable.. es lo unico.

Pros:

It was clean and up-to-date. Well kept.

Cons:

The beach was confusing. No where to sit. You get kicked around from neighbor condos. Seems that This Hotel does not have rights to the beach. It embarrassed our Family because of that issue. So we just left and looked for a more public beach. So sad

What an excellent experience staying at this hotel! The front desk staff went above and beyond—they were so friendly and helpful. Shoutout to Franco and Chico for all the great chats. We will definitely be staying here again.

Marboka is the place to stay!
Pros:

This was my second time staying at Marboka and as per the first time we received nothing but top notch service. Everyone is so friendly and helpful and willing to do whatever it takes to make your stay great. Love that is is attached to La Playita restaurant so food and drinks are always available. If you want the flavor of staying in Mexico this is the place to be! Thank you all for your hospitality!! We'll be back.

Room with a view
Pros:

We booked this hotel room last minute because we expected weather-related travel delays back to the US, and I’m so glad we did! The view from the room is incredible, the hotel staff are fantastic, and the check-in/out process was very smooth. The walk on the beach was very fun, and the downstairs restaurant is lovely. It’s not fancy, but it has everything you need (no one comes to PV to stay inside!) I would absolutely stay here again and recommend booking today!

Great location, lousy low quality hotel and service
Pros:

The views of the ocean, palm trees and sunsets were amazing. The restaurant belonging to next door hotel was good. Housekeeping staff were great.

Cons:

The list of dislikes is very long. Hospitality started off on a good note. We were told we were getting an upgrade which was not the case. The 1st room stank of mold and mildew. The toilet was leaking water. The safe was broken. When we asked for another room, the front desk staff's mood turned sour. We were shown a room next door to original with less odour and were told in an intimidating tone that "if we take this one, there are no more changes". As in the first room, the towels were thin, rough and frayed. We only got 2 bath towels, 1 hand towel and one shower mat/towel with a hole in it. We asked for face cloths and were told that we had to wait until next day. When we got them one was stained with lipstick. The room safe was broken as in the first room. The room doorknob was flimsy and antiquated and there was an old door chain. We did not feel safe. Only 5 mismatched plastic hangers in closet. Drinking glasses were plastic, old and one was chipped. There was no (or very little) hot water for showers. With only the hot water tap on, it took over 5 mins to get less than lukewarm water in the shower. The beds were not comfortable, the sheets were threadbare and pilled. The pillows smelled of head sweat from previous guests. We had to buy vanilla mist spray to cover the bad odours. First evening on our balcony was amazing but next day we could not use it because of the strong cooking/bbq smells coming from below. We ended up cutting our stay short (losing money) and when we told the same front desk person that we were leaving earlier than booked, he laughed and did not question at all our reasons.
