In the scrappy town of Rincon de Guayabitos, the two-and-a-half-pearl Decameron Los Cocos is the cream of the crop on a swimmable stretch of beautiful beach. The all-inclusive is a sprawling family-friendly property, with Decameron’s signature bright colors and fun atmosphere. The hotel attracts mostly local families, with a smattering of Americans and Canadians as well. Food and drinks are mediocre across the hotel’s three restaurants and bars, but round-the-clock entertainment appeals to travelers looking for a good time. Don’t expect modern room decor or amenities, the Decameron’s 240 rooms are dated, but essentially on par with Rincon de Guayabitos’ other lodging options. Travelers in search of something a bit more posh might prefer Hotel Riu Vallarta, which has nicer rooms and better amenities for pricier nightly rates in Nuevo Vallarta.
