Grand Park Royal Puerto Vallarta

The Resort & Its Setting

Grand Park Royal Puerto Vallarta is an independently run, all-inclusive property on the Pacific coast of Jalisco, right along Banderas Bay. Guests consistently rate it highly (4.7 out of 5 from over 24,000 Google reviews), pointing to the bayside restaurant, swim-up bar, spa and bright, comfortable suites. It's a relaxed, beach-focused resort rather than a sprawling theme-park complex, which suits owners who want a straightforward, dependable week on the sand rather than a long list of extras.

Puerto Vallarta: The Area and Things to Do

Puerto Vallarta has built its reputation on a mix of old-world Mexican charm and well-developed tourist infrastructure, and the resort's position puts owners close to most of it. The Malecon, Puerto Vallarta's famous waterfront promenade lined with shops, galleries, restaurants and public art, is about 2 km away. The cobblestone streets and colonial architecture of Old Town (Zona Romántica) are roughly 3 km away, good for an evening of wandering, local food and live music. Banderas Bay itself is right on the doorstep, offering calm, swimmable water, snorkelling, boat tours and seasonal whale watching. Beyond the immediate area, Puerto Vallarta's wider restaurant scene, nightlife and organised excursions (jungle tours, catamaran trips, fishing charters) are all easily arranged through local operators or taxis.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Grand Park Royal Puerto Vallarta and want to sell or rent it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, your listing is visible to buyers and renters searching the platform, and interested parties contact you directly through the site. There's no commission taken on a sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to publish their week.

Because Grand Park Royal Puerto Vallarta is independently operated rather than tied to a major timeshare brand's internal resale program, a transfer typically goes through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a corporate resale desk. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, sellers and buyers should both confirm directly with the resort's owners' association: the exact transfer or administration fee charged to move the deed or membership into a new owner's name, the current annual maintenance fee and whether it's up to date, and how long the transfer process usually takes from paperwork to confirmation. A resale buyer should expect to receive ownership of the week itself and the usage rights that go with it; they should not assume any loyalty perks, promotional upgrades or benefits tied to the original purchase will carry over, since these vary by resort and are rarely transferable.

What Renters Typically Look For

Renters searching listings for this resort are generally after a confirmed week in a beachfront, all-inclusive setting on Banderas Bay, with clear dates, suite size and occupancy, and a straightforward total cost that includes meals and drinks. Being upfront in your listing about what's included, the view or suite category, and any resort fees payable on arrival helps a listing stand out to serious renters.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

Puerto Vallarta runs on Mexican pesos, though US dollars are widely accepted; getting pesos from a local bank or ATM usually gives a better rate. The resort sits on Carretera Costera a Barra de Navidad Km 8.5, within easy reach of Puerto Vallarta International Airport, which has direct flights from numerous US and Canadian cities. Shoulder season (April–May or September–November) tends to bring lower rates and thinner crowds, which can be worth factoring into both personal use and rental pricing.
