Review:
My wife and I have been going to Puerto Vallarta almost every year since 2005 and staying at various resorts. We purchased a 15 year contract with Marival when we learned that this firm had bought out Rancho Banderas (a great experience) near Punta Vita. Our most recent visit was in early 2020 just prior to the over-reacting Covid-19 Lockdowns. The entire Baia Banderas area is wonderful (we especially like going to the village of Buccerias for their annual art-walk and delectable restaurants, Sandrina's in particular as well as Mar y Sol, right on the beach). We have not much explored the southern sections of the Bay except to have dinner at the Cliffs and to see 'Rhythms of the Night' down past Yalapa.
Our timeshare/vacation club membership at Marival expires in 2027, and things being as they are with Covid, we are unsure as to our current ability to travel to Mexico. Therefore, we have lowered our selling price and to the surprise of many, would not be greatly disappointed if no offers are forthcoming. That may sound odd, but we have enjoyed Puerto Vallarta so much that, if it were feasible, we would attempt to retire there.

Review:
My wife and I purchased a Gold Membership with Marival Vacation Club in 2012 and have tried every year to go there or to a sister resort, Rancho Banderas, in Punta de Mita on the Northern side of the Bay of Banderas. 15 Bonus weeks in the original contract allow us to go to Rancho Banderas, but we cannot use the Points on our contract to do so, so they truly are bonus (additional) weeks.
Staying at Marival Emotions (as it is now called) has always been relaxing, with 3 very good restaurants (Mexican, Italian and Mediterranean), a daily Buffet Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Facility and several bistro/snack bar areas available for use depending on seasonal activities. These are typically open long past dining hours.
The Resort is on the Bay of Banderas itself and offers opportunities for long walks on the beach as well as access to local establishments in Buccerias (which has at least half a dozen wonderful restaurants and many art shops). Puerto Vallarta Centro is about a half hour away by taxi.
Marival Emotions does require an All-Inclusive Fee to be paid up front, but as this covers all meals, snacks and bar tabs, a trip outside of the facility for a meal in a local restaurant is not a burden.
On our last visit in February, 2020 (just prior to COVID-19 travel restrictions) we spent several evenings after dinner hours listening to an incredibly talented Pianist who actually, upon my request, looked up, obtained the sheet music for and played for me Cat Stevens' 'Tea For The Tillerman'. He did a very good job of it.
All in all, our visits to Marival Emotions have been relaxing and enjoyable.
