Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta Resort Pools

Here is a review for You can find all these areas on our  Nuevo Vallarta Mayan Resort map

Grand Mayan Pools  

Grand Mayan Pools are right behind the the Grand Mayan buildings.  There is a lazy river, multiple pool areas , a Mayan Pyramid with a water slide, and two wave pools If you are our guest in the Grand Mayan ,  you can access this amazing area by simply walking out the back of the Grand Mayan building.    If you are staying in the Luxxe you will want to take a shuttle to at check out the lazy river at least once.  All guests have access except Mayan Palace guests.  This area  is also home ot rowdier events like dance lessons and cocktail lessons.  All the pool areas on the resort have water aerobics at some point during the day.  

Grand Bliss Pools 

Grand Bliss Pools,  walk straight behind the Grand Bliss toward the ocean and right before the beach is the Grand Bliss pool and the Chiringuito tapas restaurant.   It is open to Grand Bliss and Grand Luxxe guests.  The restaurant, of course, is open to all.   The Grand Bliss pool has a view of the ocean and is quieter than the hopping Grand Mayan water park.   This is a small quiet pool and for some reason tends to be a bit cooler than other areas.

Luxxe Pools

There are three Luxxe pool areas  the Punta pools can be reached by walking straight through the Punta 

Presidential building (where Burgers Custom Made is located).    Luxxe 1 pools are best reached by walking through the Luxxe 1 building lobby.   Only Luxxe /Residence guests have access.  Finally, the new Spa Tower pools are on the river side of Luxxe building 4.  All these are quieter areas.  The Joy Squad with activities is at Luxxe 1, so you may want to go there if you are looking for activities.

Residence Pool

There is a pool exclusively for guests of the top of the top new 4 bedroom residence units.    guests on the top of the Residence building.  

Where are the warm pools?

Ok, this isn’t new, but we just figured it out and thought we should share.   All the warmest pools are at the right (north) end of the string of pools at each location.  At the Grand Mayan, this is right in front of the Samba restaurant.   At the Grand Bliss pools,  go right as you enter the pool area from the Grand Bliss (facing the ocean).   For the pools next to the Luxxe One building,  the warm pool is closest to the Limon Y Sal restaurant (formerly the Blue Fish)  We didn’t get a chance to check out the Punta pools, but we are guessing the pattern might continue. Someone let us know if we are wrong

Of course, if you prefer cool refreshing pools, you want the left (south ) end of each pool complex.

That is our review of the Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta Resort Pools.
