Plaza Pelicanos Grand Beach Resort

The Resort and Its Setting

Plaza Pelicanos Grand Beach Resort is a beachfront, all-inclusive timeshare property in Zona Hotelera, Las Glorias — a well-established part of Puerto Vallarta rather than a newer, outlying development. Google reviewers (4.2/5 from over 4,400 ratings) describe it as unfussy and laid-back, with on-site dining, a spa and an outdoor pool. It's a straightforward, no-frills beach resort rather than a luxury flagship, which suits owners who want reliable week-after-week use more than show.

Puerto Vallarta and Las Glorias

Las Glorias is one of the city's more walkable hotel zones, putting the resort close to the water's edge with easy reach of local restaurants and shops. From here, Puerto Vallarta's Malecón boardwalk is about a kilometre away, and the cobblestone streets and galleries of Old Town Puerto Vallarta are a short taxi or bus ride further on. Banderas Bay laps the shoreline right outside, and boat trips from the area run to whale-watching grounds, snorkelling spots and the rock formations at Los Arcos. It's a destination that works equally well for a quiet week on the beach or a busier schedule of day trips.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Plaza Pelicanos Grand Beach Resort and are ready to move on, BidMyTimeshare.com lets you list it for resale or rent directly, owner to owner. There's no commission on the sale — you set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you through the platform. Sellers pay only a one-time listing fee to get the ad live.

Because this is an independent resort rather than a major branded chain with published resale terms, a transfer typically goes through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a corporate transfer desk. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm directly with the resort: the transfer fee charged to re-register the week, whether the association or resort holds a right of first refusal on resales, and the current annual maintenance fee. These details vary by resort and can change, so get them in writing rather than relying on what a previous owner paid.

A resale buyer takes on the week itself and, where RCI affiliation applies to the unit, the ability to deposit that week into the RCI exchange program — but they do not automatically inherit any loyalty perks, promotional upgrades or banked points tied to the seller's account unless the resort confirms otherwise. Renters, for their part, are typically looking for confirmed beachfront access, all-inclusive dining, and proximity to the Malecón and Old Town — all of which this resort can offer for the length of the stay being rented.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Puerto Vallarta's busiest, most in-demand weeks run from December through April, when the weather is driest and most consistent — if you're renting out a week, this is the window that attracts the most interest. The rest of the year is quieter and often more affordable, though it does fall within the June–November hurricane season, which is worth flagging to renters. The resort's beachfront position means water activities are easiest to arrange early in the day, and taxis or local buses cover most trips beyond walking distance into town.
