The Pool at Fiesta Americana Puerto Vallarta All Inclusive & Spa

"The dramatically designed terra-cotta building rises above a deep-blue pool that flows beside palm oases; a seven-story palapa (which provides natural air-conditioning) covers the elegant lobby—paved in patterned tile and stone—and a large round bar"

"Non-stop daytime activities at the pool keep those who like to be entertained quite happy, though it's massive enough that guests can swim and tan around the pool without feeling like they're in the midst of any hustle and bustle"

"The heated pool is sprawling and has a swim-up bar and kiddy area, and food is good for this caliber of resort, with multiple a la carte options and no reservations required"

"Palms and clumps of bougainvillea impede some pool and beach views from the lower balconies, with the best views on the fifth floor and above"
