8/10 Very good

This was our 3rd visit to Samba. It’s the food and the staff that are amazing. But she is becoming a very tired girl. Upgrades are needed in the rooms and main areas. We had a couple of day that hot showers were not part of that days plan. The pool is awesome for families. And the beach is wonderful. We love that the Samba is small. It makes the service so special. Carlos took care of us most of the week in the buffet and by the pool. Such a wonderful guy! The food is great and the trays in the buffet were always changed out quickly when empty. Shout out to Bernando who helped us with dinner reservations and arranging a late check out for our daughter and family.

This was our first time staying in Mexico and we chose the Samba based on friends who have stayed there before (they also joined us). The service is above average in my opinion, with there being some stand outs we interacted with - Gilberto, Salvador, Antonio & Iori making it just that much more fun and entertaining, so thank you to them!! The food was really great and the bbq night in the buffet was my fav. The beach and pool areas were not crowded at all this time of year in early Dec...which was a plus. There was a bit of surf/wave action, but once you got just past it, most people would be fine. We got to see some dolphins and whales from the beach out front! The rooms could use some updates for sure, but the bed was comfortable and it was clean. Our room had some issues with water temperature in the shower, but we didn't address it (would really be my only complaint). Overall, I would def recommend the Samba for anyone travelling to Nuevo Vallarta who is looking for a budget friendly and service oriented stay...we'll be back!

We have been going to the Samba for over twenty years and as always the staff was excellent and the food is sometimes not so great our biggest problem is the management at the front desk there is a lot of turn over and they never remember us even though we go with a large group the rest of the staff remember us and we are friends with them but the front desk is always disappointing. But here’s a salute to some special staff Salvador, Carlos, Genaro, Juan, Norma, Yadira, Ernesto you all do a great job!!!

It would be great if there were fans in the bathrooms. It was also difficult to adjust the water temp in the shower.

A group of us have been coming here for 22 years and we love it.The hotel is a smaller older hotel.It is showing its age but it is clean and looked after.The staff are excellent friendly and helpful.They are the main reason we keep returning. There are two a la carte restaurants and the main buffet.I have always found something good to eat. We look forward to returning next year.

Property is outdated as in an Older building / rooms and bathroom . Only one snack bar in between meal times and the snacks were a 3/10 Not much of activity / entertainment during the day expect the nightly show at 9 pm for 45 minutes or so. The water aerobics they had during the day was mostly in the local language so it was hard for us to understand or enjoy it At the end of the stay , the bell boy tried to hustle us but trying to triple the price of the taxi fare to the airport . We stood our ground for about 15 mins and we managed to get our own taxi for the price it’s supposed to be

10/10 Exceptional

Excelent value for the price. Beautiful beach setup with chairs, beds and umbrellas. Very nice staff, good food, family oriented. Hotel is a bit outdated but kept very clean. Everyone tries to be helpful even that most of the staff dont speak English. I enjoyed beeing surrounded by the Mexicen families with very well behaved kids. Outside of the hotel is kept neet and tidy around the pool. I was just a bit disapointed by the end. We needed late checkout and I was ready to pay 1000 mx pesos what they asked for, but turned out that would be per person. So paying 300CAD to stay 2 to 3 hours more didn’t realy make sense.

I was not happy with my stay! I tried to cancel my reservations and was told No they would not accept or refund my money but when I got there to check in they put me in a room with 1 king I reserved a room with 2 queens and when I called to tell them they said the couch folds out they didnt have any other rooms available ?!?! They said they would come make the couch up and never showed I had to call them 4 hours later and wait another hour, she came in half made the bed said its fine and walked out?! THE COUCH BED was like sleeping on the floor it was SO uncomfortable :( 2nd they are very limited on places / options for food! You have to eat on their time or dont eat and the "All inclusive" doesnt include anything in your room they charge you ha ha ha ha Will never return

The hotel was clean but I paid a lot of money for a suit and my guest ended up sleeping on the floor since the sofa bed was not comfortable. The mattress was to thin so it made it uncomfortable. The staff was great there were a couple of members who went above and beyond and exceded my expectations, Norma in charge of the bathrooms was great. Beatriz and Salvador in the buffet were great. Both Jose’s at the Mexican restaurant were great and last but not least pinky at the buffet was great. My kids and I had a great time
