Thanks for all the info. Booked the family in for Velas Vallarta.
March 24-31
Reviews seem to be positive. Will spend a day in PV but most time will be at the resort.

Speak to a pharmacist. They should be able to write you a prescription for Azithromycin in case you get the poops. Dukorol isn't the most effective but if covered by a plan, my pharmacist recommended taking it. Pharmacist can write that prescription too.

Wife always brought Ciprofloxacin. Saved her bacon at least once.

Nice! I am a non facebooker but my wife showed me pictures of guys flyfishing of the beach at the resort. I would walk up the beach some but may take a rod along.
Have you been at the Velas before?

One of the worst trips I have ever been on. Came back early actually as a few things went very wrong at this place. I will leave it at that.

In my opinion, I would not recommend this resort, do your research...
