El único lugar que nos hizo sentir bienvenidos, meseros excelente atención, la comida tarda un poco pero vale la pena esperar, los tacos de chicharrón dorado, riquísimos y la playa espectacular, sin duda volvería

Una excelente atención por parte de todos los meseros, les están dando el ejemplo a sus vecinos de la palapa que ahí pareciera que te hace el favor de atenderte.

Colimense De vuelta en México

$300 pesos de consumo para poder estar en las sillas en el área de playa, me parece un precio justo, la comida estuvo muy rica, los precios son similares a los lugares próximos. Cuidado al pedir cosas fuera del menú, porque me cobraron $95 pesos mexicanos por un cachito de jícama y medio pepino con chilito y limón.

Estuve unos días de vacaciones con mi mamá, fuimos a el club de playa 3 días seguidos. El servicio fue fenomenal. Los empleados son súper amables y profesionales, especialmente, Carlos, Justo, Ulises, y Adrián hicieron que nuestra experiencia fuera maravillosa.

Muy buenos precios, muy buen servicio, la playa y camastros limpios. Para estar todo el día disfrutando la playa y la puesta de sol. Ambiente familiar, tranquilo y muy a gusto. Sólo agregaría algo de música aunque fuera de fondo, de ahí en fuera todo excelente.

We LOVE Swell. Our friend Leanne introduced us after we had hit and miss service at a variety of other neighboring properties. Shout out to Ricardo but we love everyone that works there. TIP WELL. They deserve it. We usually come down in the morning and eat, drink and stay until siesta time in the afternoon! Always make resos We will see you in 3 weeks amigos!

Worn out from the night before? A great place to chill at the beach in lounges under umbrellas with excellent service. One drawback is continual selling by beach vendors. Warm people, no hard sell, but pls I’m not in the mood for a tattoo, bracelet, or a painting of Elvis. Just trying my best to get on the other side of this hangover then the world will be wonderful again.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating our group of about 12 people each day. They would set us up with chairs and umbrellas and ensured that we were happy with our drinks and food. The fish sticks and fish tacos were my favourite snacks. Being so close to the water was beautiful.

Cannot beat the location! Free chairs/lounges and towels with the purchase of food or beverages. Spent the entire day here. Staff were friendly and were great about continously moving the umbrella to keep my husband in the shade. Thanks so much for the incredible service!

My wife and I just had a great day at Swell. We laid out on lounge chairs under an umbrella being taken care of by Omar. He and the rest of the staff were fantastic. Paid by Visa with an accurate tab at the end of the day. Zero issues. ¡Gracias a Omar!

Of all the beach restaurants / chairs we tried at this beach, this one was absolutely the best! It is conveniently located, the staff was friendly and attentive, the prices were reasonable and we didn’t feel pressured which allowed us to really enjoy the day. They definitely do business in a different way and that’s simply amazing!

A beach day must! Attentive and friendly service here! Drinks were tasty too, we didn't get any food cause we just weren't hungry. But it looked good 😊 You don't need to rent the beach chairs, simply just need to order drinks and/or food to sit on the beach there. It was lovely!

Swell is the best place for beach days! Drinks were big, food was fantastic, and staff is amazing. Even on the rainiest day, they still made our day fantastic. We were there from 10-5, so many laughs with the staff, and our server Carlos was easy to find and help when you need something. We 💕 Swells & Carlos!

Great place. Definitely upper scale. Sat at the bar and probably had some of the best tuna sashimi I’ve ever had. The drinks look to be top shelf too! Friendly service as well.

Had a great time hanging out here for the day, staff was attentive and friendly and popped in to check in often so my glass was never empty for too long. I ordered the green chilaquiles for breakfast and I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor and portion. Would definitely come back here if ever in PV again!

This place is a hidden gem, the staff is friendly and on top of it. Locals know this is the place to go. Tipping the staff extra goes a long way. My favorite food there is the fresh seared Tuna, but there are many good food items on the menu.

Best Club House Sandwich with piping hot fresh fries. Great service. Average prices. Nice views and calm beachfront. Rated atmosphere bit lower as furniture looks a little tired.

Great location on the beach to relax where water is calm and clean. Menu is good but prices are yo as everywhere in PV. That being said I had the best Club House Sandwich and French Fries in PV. Messero was very attentive and took good care of me. Muchas gracias

Ordered a stuffed avocado salad and it was lovely. We packed for the beach and grabbed a palapa, in the sand served by Swell restaurant. They came around and offered nice cold beer, cocktails and had a menu with a good selection. Prices are not the lowest but but not high. The location on the beach is worth a little extra.

Hay mejores lugares alrededor. En lo personal está bien el lugar y ubicación pero los meseros si tiene la mala costumbre de atender con respuesta más tardía a quienes ellos creen que no les conviene por la propina. Pero deberían dejar de juzgar y ofrecer un servicio excepcional parejo. Espero mejoren. Queríamos comer algo pero el servicio muy lento mejor fuimos a comer a otro lado. Ahí solo tomamos bebidas, en lo personal adulteradas. Esta referencia no es nada personal. Sólo mi experiencia del día primero.

Confused! Went to swell first day on a weekday, service was great, food and drinks were good. We went back on a Saturday we were told there was a cover charge of 500 pesos each. We both looked at each other and mentioned to the waiter we had been here 4 days prior and we sat and drank and paid for what we consumed? So tell me is there a cover or no, to sit here. I would love to try it again. Our waiter was Daniel on the first day.

Looking for a place to sit back and relax on a gorgeous beach while enjoying a meal and beverages, Swell Beach bar on Playa Los Muertos, Puerto Vallarta, is the place for you. The bar has numerous tables and umbrellas set up on the sandy beach for your enjoyment.. steps away from the water, the food was tasty and hot, while the drinks where ice cold, service was good and the staff were super friendly, prices were reasonable. Recommended. Barry 🇨🇦

La atención de los meseros muy buena hasta que llegó el dueño/gerente muy prepotente por que algunos le compramos un mango a un vendedor ambulante. Llegó a gritar y con una actitud terrible. Éramos un grupo de más de 20, Decidimos mejor irnos para no soportar malos tratos por parte del encargado.

Pésimo ambiente, el gerente / dueño se comportó de manera súper grosero porque compramos un mango de un vendedor. teníamos una mesa de 30 personas todas consumiendo bebidas y comida y aún así nos habló horrible. Y nos miraba feo, muy inmaduro y grosero. No volvería a ir

Muy mala actitud del dueño o gerente en turno del dia 11/10/25 Eramos un grupo grande consumiendo bien bebidas y comida y por comprar un par de mangos de vendedores ambulantes se puso a discutir con nosotros reclamando que si no vimos el letrero de mala manera.

RIPOFF NEW First of all been coming to Swells for about 9 year. Living here now and last year. Come about once a week. Best coconut shrimp in town. Tell everyone and tag on Facebook. Came by today for breakfast. The first time Adrian waited on us. He speaks pretty good English. We speak a little Spanish so I don’t think there’s any misunderstanding. We told him we wanted to order one plate with one egg and one plate with two egg’s. He said do you want rice and beans with that I said no just the eggs then we order two green juice, one coffee and two fruit plates, and one water or two glasses of ice. The eggs were supposed to be over easy and they were barely cooked super runny. And there was just a little bit of fruit on the plate so then Speedy came over to help us. I said we had fruit plates and he said he must’ve misunderstood so he brought us one fruit plate. The bill came back at 580 pesos. There’s no way this is correct speedy was very helpful and felt bad. Sent the bill back two times to you and he said no correction and I said this is ridiculous. We live here and we won’t be back. Speed he said sorry, but you could not adjust this. I’m hoping it was not the owner. And that we be can offer us some type of a credit. It’s not the amount of the money. It’s the principle we like your restaurant and your servers but we will not be back if there’s no compensation. 1 egg side 30 2 eggs side 60 2 green juice 100 estimated Coffee 40 1 water 2 glasses 40 estimated Fruit plate 85 355 total, should of been They charged 580 almost double Mike and Sue Lopez This is what it should of been, give or take a few pesos but was overcharged around $12 US. Took right off menu. Be careful! Owner just argued with me multiple time with no adjustment Felt like I have been overcharged in past because they scribble on note pad that you can’t read and in the afternoon after a couple drinks I just let it go. Wasn’t drinking this time so I was sure
