Palladium Vallarta Resort and Spa
Family-friendly hideaway above the beach. |
Although Palladium Vallarta is an active resort, its spaciousness and botanical gardens create a restful atmosphere, exemplified by the long paths shaded by thatched roofs connecting buildings. Strolling these paths, and those through the gardens, is a soothing experience. More tranquility can be found around an adults-only pool.

| El Bosque The resort's main restaurant, El Bosque is divided into two sections, each under an enormous, soaring, thatch-roof palapa and furnished with carved, dark-wood chairs and colorful chair cushions and table linens. Bountiful breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets are served, with lunches and dinners featuring theme foods such as Italian or Mexican. After dinner closes at 11 PM, fast foods such as pizza, hamburgers, and nachos are available until 1 AM.
Viva Mexico Reached by a staircase ascending from the center of El Bosque, this dinner restaurant has its own palapa; features rustic decor such as wood-paddle ceiling fans, leather-and-wood furniture, and junk-metal sculptures; provides a sweeping ocean view; and serves à la carte Mexican fare.
