Pros: Everything. I had a lot of changes to the schedule (I plan events, so that's to be expected), and our wedding planner was able to accommodate with a smile :).
Cons: Adventure Weddings at Las Caletas should be on a different level. The rating system should go to 6 stars just for them!

I can not begin to explain how amazing our experience was. We wanted a beach wedding and LOVE Puerto Vallarta, as it's our home away from home. My partner was researching venues and found Las Caletas back in April of 2016. We blindly booked after reading all of the positive reviews. We were paired with a wedding planner at that time and was told we wouldn't start the real planning until 3 mon

Pros: Everything!
Cons: Honestly - nothing
We got married on March 18, 2017 at Las Caletas, and it was everything we had hoped for, and more. First off - the venue is naturally gorgeous, very secluded, lush and private. At night is it all lit up by candlelight which made it even more beautiful. We were lucky enough to do our site visit a few months prior to the wedding, and our AMAZING wedding planner, Madelyn, spent so much time with us touring the venue and answering every little question we could come up with. She remained just as p

Pros: That I only got to do it once
Cons: Nothing that I can think of
This venue completely exceeded our expectations. Madelyn and her team were SO helpful and answered all of our (sometimes silly) questions throughout the entire planning process. The cove was incredibly exclusive, it was our little slice of paradise.
The ceremony and reception were far from cookie cutter or cheesy. They took our ideas and turned it into a reality better than we could have hoped for. We had 40 guests and everyone we talked to the next day couldn't stop talking about how it wa

Pros: everything is just great!
I had the best time at my wedding, I got married February 3rd 2017. Dennise Betancourt was my wedding coordinator, she always responded on time and was able to capture our wedding vision and she added so many beautiful details. Very professional, efficient, friendly, and helpful. She worked very hard to give us the most memorable and beautiful day. Thank you Dennise. Our DJ Raphael hit all the right notes, kept the party dancing and creating a great ambiance. Jairo was the officiant was awes

Pros: Everything! Staff, location, execution of bride and groom's vision, attention to detail, food/drinks
Cons: None. Well, if it rains.
Our wedding in December 2016 at Las Caletas with Adventure Weddings was an absolute dream come true! We were fortunate to work with Dennise Betancourt, and have to say we were so pleased with her from start to finish!
CHOOSING A VENUE:
We reached out to Adventure Weddings over a year in advance with potential dates we would like to stop by for a site visit. They accommodated our date requests and connected us with Dennise before we even booked our site visit flights. We were given specific

Hello Past LC Brides! We are getting married on Feb 17 at Las Caletas. We have booked fire dances, gotten all of our decor down pat, basically only the tiny tin details are left. I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions, or little tidbits to pass on. Secondly, has anyone experienced poor communication? I understand the planners there are busy, but I have really been having trouble getting questions answered, have asked for a skype call and gotten no response, we leave for PV in 2 weeks and I

We were married at Las Caletas in December of 2016. A big shout out to the planning and service crew! Our planner Madelyn was the best. Very professional, efficient, friendly, and helpful. She worked very hard to give us the most memorable and beautiful day. Thanks Madelyn. Our DJ Raphael hit all the right notes, found the perfect tunes and kept the party dancing to the end. Cruise director Julio made sure we all got there and back and had a good time along the way. Ivan our photographer

I have my wedding date set for the end of April 2017 at Las Caletas. So I guess we will not start planning with the planner for another month or so. Can anyone tell me what I need to bring with me. I am not working at the this time so have plenty of time on my hands to get ready but not sure what I need to do/bring. If anyone can give me some advise, please email me privately at [email protected].

Cons: none
Getting married at Las Caletas was the absolute best decision we made for our wedding. We got married there on 11/19/16, and it was absolutely AMAZING. Words cannot express how happy my husband and I are by the excellent treatment we received from start to finish. My wedding planner was Madelyn Fregoso-- she is THE BEST. Madelyn made planning from such a long distance such an easy process for me. She was there to answer ALL my questions, answering emails daily and providing me with the best advi

Pros: Staff, Location, Service, Photographer, Everything
Cons: The American/Canadian exchange rate - not anyones fault!
We had our wedding on November 10, 2016 and it was the most magical day. I could not have imagined having my wedding anywhere else in the entire world, it was the wedding of my dreams.
Our wedding coordinator was Blanca and she was the best! In the last month before my wedding, I made a bunch of changes to our colors, flowers and guest count and she was able to handle everything! I even called her the night before my wedding from the resort and changed the amount of people coming to the

Cons: It was perfect. How could there be any cons at such a magical place!
From the very first e-mail we got from Dennise from Vallarta Adventures we knew this was going to be special. Our wedding was the most magical day EVER. Everything went smoothly and beautifully. What a gift it was to be married by the sea of love. The food, decorations, entertainment, and staff were all incrediable! Dennise B our wedding coordinator was truly a gem. She made us feel so comfortable and truly took care of EVERYTHING! Our photos and video will be such a great reminder of our beauti

Pros: Communication, Location, Food, Atmosphere, Staff
Cons: NOTHING!
My husband and I started looking for where we wanted to get married pretty much right after he proposed. I'm a wedding photographer in San Diego, so I knew I didn't want to get married in my city, because I didn't want to shoot someone else's wedding where we got married. It would have just taken away the magic of our day for me. So we started our search and looked all over. When we found Las Caletas on the Style Me Pretty Blog it literally took my breathe away. I jumped off the couch and showed

My husband and I got married on June 15, 2016 and it was absolutely incredible! Dennise was our wedding coordinator and she made everything so easy, followed up with e-mails quickly, made awesome suggestions and was so incredibly sweet in person as well. The day before and of she was on the ball with everything and made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, I never worried about anything, she's the BEST!!

Pros: Everything went perfectly!!!
Cons: Boat ride was choppy, making many guests sick
My husband and I got married at Las Caletas on November 17th, 2015. Our wedding was AMAZING and guests continue to rave about it to this date! We had multiple family and friends comment that this was "the best wedding [they] have ever been to". We have our wedding coordinator Dennise B. to thank for making this truly the best day of our lives. Dennise was amazing from the first time I spoke with her over email. She contacted me a couple of months before the wedding. She was very prompt at respon

Pros: Best Staff, Beautiful, Stress-free, Super Fun, Great food, Great drinks, Accommodating
Cons: NONE
From the moment we started looking at destination weddings, it was a process. But as soon as we found Adventure Weddings Las Caletas, we literally fell in love. The videos made it look like such a fun atmosphere (and thats what we wanted.. to have a good time on our wedding day). The pictures looked amazing, but let me tell you when we did the site visit the day before the wedding we realized the pictures didn't even do it the slightest bit of justice. It is an absolute gorgeously breath taking

Pros: Staff, location, decor options, one of a kind experience, custom options, exclusivity/privacy
Cons: NONE.
Where to begin! We were married at Las Caletas on June 16, 2016. Several months before our trip I was already impressed with Vallarta Adventures, by way of our incredible wedding coordinator, Blanca Ramirez. In reading all of the forums and reviews, I knew there were some brides who were concerned with planning a wedding via email, and thought there may be a language barrier. Let me assure anyone reading this that when it comes to Blanca, and Adventure Weddings for that matter, you will not b

Pros: Setting/Location, Incredible service from all the staff, Good food/drink, Great entertainment options
Cons: Slight drawback - we had a choppy ride over in the boat that made a couple of people sea sick
I'm so glad there are numerous forums, such as this, where we can shout to the world what an amazing, fun-filled wedding we had at Las Caletas; simply breathtaking.
We don't usually write reviews for hotels, restaurants etc, but we felt compelled to let others know, who might be currently searching for a wedding venue, to look no further - Las Caletas delivered 100% in everything we were looking for when we dreamed up our destination wedding.
For starters, we liked the fact that everythi

Pros: excellent planning, prompt email responses, fun for everyone
Cons: not a damn thing
We chose to have our wedding at Las Caletas through Adventure Wedding not having ever gone to Puerto Vallarta. What won us over was how it was advertised as a stress free wedding planning experience for brides and it truly was! We cannot give enough credit to our coordinator, Blanca. She gave us exactly what we wanted. It was literally picture perfect. Everyone that we worked with (Rafael the DJ, Cristhell the photographer, Sonia the videographer) made our wishes their priority and treated us so

Pros: Literally everything. Especially the rustic wood tables, the DJ, Blanca, the service Staff, the food, the perfect venue, the boat ride there and back
Cons: Tell your guests to take a dramamine if they get motion sickness, a few of the guests got a little bit boat sick :)
We literally could not have chosen a better venue to get married. We chose Las Caletas based upon internet photos and reviews, and when we went to do our venue visit a few days before our wedding we were absolutely blown away when seeing it for the first time in person. It was more perfect than the photos and more perfect then we could have imagined. Beautifully rustic, with a touch of Mexican theme that wasn't too much or too little. The beaches were so clean, the hammocks everywhere were soooo

Pros: Blanca, Location, Dancing on the beach, Great food, Unique Experience for your guests!
Cons: nothing
Our wedding was on May 14th and it exceeded all my expectations! I was not a bride that wanted to plan a wedding and selecting Las Caletas(Adventure Weddings) was ideal for us. First, we had the MOST amazing wedding coordinator Blanca Ramirez. It was beyond easy to work with Blanca. She made the process seemless! Any questions I had, she responded back to me immediately. She was SO wonderful! The wedding itself could not have been more perfect. Our guests could not stop(and are still talking) ab

Pros: Perfect surroundings, great Coordinator, romantic
Cons: Went too quickly!
My husband and I got married in Las Caletas on the 4th May 2016, Dennise was our Coordinator. From the start Dennise was very friendly and it was obvious she had a lot of experience in wedding planning, specifically for Las Calatas.
The entire planning process was stress free which was a relief and gave us peace of mind, especially since we were planning it all the way from the UK. Dennise was flexible and we were able to change things right up to the last minute.

Pros: Every single thing

Me and my husband got married on April 20th 2016 at las caletas and it was incredible! Dennise was our wedding planner and made the day perfect with her excellent communication throughout the planning process and attention to detail. The early girls bridal suite with our own personal butler was amazing. Alma and Oscar who did our hair and makeup were the most talented hair and make up artists I've ever seen and I have been to many weddings. The flowers and the bamboo chuppa took the already amaz

Pros: Everything!

We had our wedding at Las Caletas on the 26 of April and booked the Private Package (Premier). EVERYTHING exceeded expectations. Dennise was our wedding coordinator - the communication was excellent and she nailed it completely. Myself and the girls were spoiled (to say the least) at the private bridal suite, the food was amazing, the music (and DJ) were bang on, the decorations were perfect - I can't even describe the candlelight (we had guests taking photos of the bathroom - it was that great!

We got married on February 25, 2016 at Las Caletas and IT WAS WONDERFUL. We had 80 guests and everyone had a blast. Madelyn was an absolutely amazing coordinator. She was extremely organized and was on top of everything the day of the wedding. Cristhell was a great photographer, she captured everything and we love our pictures. The DJ and music were awesome. The entire bridal party’s hair and makeup was perfect. The food was amazing. The decorations were beautiful. The boat ride back was epic. T

Pros: Beautiful location, All inclusive, wedding planner, private island
Cons: Literally none
I'm going to write this review to be informative as well tell you how absolutely phenomenal this wedding was. It beat every expectation I had and was beyond anything I could have imagined.
My part of the day started with my seven bridesmaids and I, very early in the morning. We met at Nuevo Vallarta Adventure Center and took the boat ride over to Las Caletas. The girls spend the day in Las Caletas enjoying the island and the bridal suite as part of the Las Caletas Beach Hideaway tour. We we
