Wow!! We couldn't have possibly imagined how horrible this resort could be. We went for our honeymoon and were promised a 'honeymoon suite', but upon arrival were directed to a small dingy, hole. It had a broken bed that left us with bruises on our hips and the bathroom was sparsley equipped with a toilet and half used a roll of toilet paper sitting beside it. The food consisted of mini wieners served in a wide array of sauces- ranging from a thick red sauce to a runny brown sauce. The cups were so filthy that I had no desire to have a drink and had the pleasure of sporting my first ever cole sore after using one.The pool deck was gross and the deck chairs unimaginable. The staff responded to all complaints with Tequilla. Our neighbors to the left us came down with major food poisoning, while our other neighbors down the hall had items stolen from their room from someone who snuck in the window. While on a walk just outside the resort doors in the middle of the day my husband got attacked without any provocation and punched in the head by someone screaming at him in Spanish. When we told the people at the hotel they had a laugh and told us to drink it off with tequila, while the Sunwing people shrugged it off and said that stuff happens.When we left we said a sad goodbye to a gentleman who had booked for 2 weeks and was trying his best to get the hell out of there. This resort was absolute crap- our advise: stay far far away. We would never, ever stay here again and will never book a trip through Sunwing- ever.

Simply put the Gettoway Club is a good place to stay while in PV, close to Downtown and all the nessesities are close by. (bank, internet cafe, Mega store, convienience store)

sure the beds are hard (why not get out of bed and go enjoy yourself)

Breakfast (omelets every day yum yum) was very good as was the fresh salsa and chips, didn't partake in other meals while there because we were way to busy exploring PV, and there are literaly 100s of great resturants within a 15 min walk or 5 minute bus ride. yes I said bus ride, 5 pesos to anywhere in PV and a ton of fun to ride (The Lions of the Road)

The hotel is not exactly in its prime but it was probably a very fine Hotel in its day! I understand that the 4 story part of the resort is being renovated while we were there, perhaps they will start on the tower after it is completed. We stayed in an oceanview room 20th floor (worth the upgrade $30) exellent patio, beautiful view, the housekeeping staff kept it clean and stocked every day. Bellman gave us a ice chest to keep in our room for bottled water.

The Staff was outstanding.
Tony (Bellman) great guy.
Pedro (Bartender) thanks for the hang overs!

And of course Aldo "The Puerto Rican God"
Don't challenge this guy to a beer drinking contest, you'll lose

The Music everyone complains about was also very good, "open up your soul when your on vacation. music and dance are a couple of Gods gifts"

If you want a quiet 4 star luxury Resort don't go to Gettoway Club, It's not that, but it's not $3000.00/ week either, you get what you pay for.

Peace and Love Jackie.

from Vancouver, 7 days A/I , 300 bucks so we can't complain at all about the price, but it is definitely a two star hotel. With some cleaning and repair, it might be a 3. Our room, 2107, was very clean with a great view. Service was okay, food was fair but there was only about 40 in the whole complex. It's a party place with nude bathing allowed so leave the kids at home. It's basically a run down large complex and I would not suggest it to any one.

Me and my boyfriend went there Nov. 2008 and had a great time. Yeah, there could have been better food, but there is cheap, good food everywhere in Puerto Vallarta. The beds were hard, but if you have enough drinks before bed you don't even notice. For what we paid It was worth it. We are going back in 2 days and can only hope we have as much fun as we did the first time. It's an awesome location and you can walk to downtown & the malecon in minutes. Staff was friendly and fun. You get what you pay for with the Getaway and our up coming trip only cost us $1300 for the both of us, not a bad deal!!!!
