We have stayed ay many resorts in the Puerto Vallarta area, but decided to book a one week stay at Samba with Nolitours based on all the positive reviews we read. We were specifically looking for a smaller resort that was peaceful and relaxing and have a preference for resorts that cater to a wide range of customers, including Mexican... More

We stayed for 7 nights with our 5 1/2 month old son. We had a fabulous time!! We'll definitely go back there. The service was unbelievable! Everyone is so friendly and always waiting on you. Our drinks never went empty on the beach or pool. The food was good. They had a different theme every night. We never went hungry.... More

We returned from Samba this past Sunday. Had an absolute blast. Enjoyed the smaller resort expreience. The staff treated us so well. Food was great. Lots of variety and we especially loved the coffee in the a la carte restaurant. The bed was comfy and the view from the 3rd floor over the pool AMAZING! We could hear the waves... More

This was my first trip alone to Mexico. I was a little hesitant going after I couldn't get the hotel I wanted. But I gave the Samba a try, and am I ever glad I did! The resort was extremely clean, the staff were unbelievably friendly, as well as the other vacationers. The food was delicious, though there was a... More

We just returned from Samba on Sunday and have absolutely nothing bad to say about this resort. As mentioned in other reviews, it is a smaller place which is great for families. We have 2 girls, 4 & 5 and they had so much fun there. The staff knew the girls names, were always very helpful & everything was great.... More

Our family (2 kids - 3 yrs and 1 yrs) stayed at Samba through the Nolitours all-inclusive from Toronto. The resort provided a relaxing vacation with excellent food, comfortable accomodation, and family fun. We visited the pool, beach/ocean, and playground daily, and read books on the balcony while the kids napped in the afternoon. The resort had plenty of space... More

Samba Vallarta is a great resort if you want a small, quiet, relaxing, and friendly place. It's NOT a place for someone looking to party. It's great for kids, families and couples over 35 yrs old or really mature. (boring - ha ha) I think the only reasons this resort isn't a 5 star is because of its size, age... More

Just returned from a one week all inclusive at the Samba. This was our second stay there and loved it. Its a small resort, only about 130 people there this week. Loved walking on the beach for miles each day. Very friendly staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Its not a party place !!... More

My wife and I spent two weeks here (Dec 10 - 24, 2011). I was a bit apprehensive about spending two weeks at a place I had never been before, but the place was fabulous, and I lived it. This is the third resort I have been to in Nuevo Vallarta, and I can say without reservation that the food... More
