The Welk is conveniently located close to or near on some attractions in San Diego/ Escondido. The only drawback, we brought my mom who uses a wheelchair and our unit was down a flight of stairs from the walkway and we have a hard time transporting my mom. We called ahead to request a room that does not need a stair and they were not able to accommodate us because we booked through RCI. Other than that, the area and the facilities are very nice.

"WORST RESORT EVER"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed November 01, 2024 NEW
It has been a couple years since we were at this “place” and it has gotten worse if that is even possible. Since Hyatt has taken over the resort has gone downhill. *The front desk staff is horrendous! Rude, not willing to help and really not willing to listen. We had nothing but trouble checking in to the point they would not let us check into our daughter’s room. Ok, rules. But when she got there 3 days later, they had listed her as a no show. It took forever to get her room and the staff continued to be rude *Rooms are old and not maintained. Housekeeping is good, the rooms were clean. But, one room was missing a chair at the table, dishwasher was loose, walls were banged up and a muscle man had to open the slider to the patio. Other room was missing trash cans, furniture was broken, dishwasher filthy, and no dishwashing detergent. But they did give us laundry soap with no washer. *Don't even bother hoping to cook. There are no baking sheets, no blender, no colander, no measuring cup, no bowls to serve or mix in, etc. We had four kids and didn’t want to eat out every meal or eat just cold food so we came prepared *Speaking of eating out, the only restaurant does not serve breakfast and everything is 20+ minutes away. There IS a Pizza Hut. Woo hoo *Pools are nice, game rooms fun (but they cost) and employees at each rec center are the only redeeming factor at this “place” *I call it a “place” because it certainly Is not like any resort I have been to

"Never talks a ADA-room if offered"
TripAdvisor user rating 2.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 31, 2024 NEW
We asked for a “no step” unit. We told the Resavation desk at Hyatt Vacation club this and why. She recommended a ADA room she had available. We had friends stay in one a few years ago. They were in Village on the Green. Here at Bolder Peak, the newer area of the resort we found to our dismay many things wrong. The kitchen is 10 ft. long or so. The prep space is 2 ft. left of the sink, a 3 ft. sink, 16 in. of prep space then a 2 ft. cabinet. T the microwave is a counter top model on the 2ft. section of the counter top. The living room tv was lopsided with all the cables hanging out from behind it. There is a bath tub in the bathroom not a roll in or step up ,”2in.” Shower. The BR tv had no sound and cables were all messed up. They’re are no electric outlets for a night light, no electric outlets to charge motorists wheelchair. When we told Welk all they could say is “If you have a ADA Room you can not change it out for another room”

"One of the Best Restaurant Experiences Ever!"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 28, 2024
Our stay at the Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta was truly unforgettable, particularly because of the outstanding service we received at Pureza Restaurant. Jaime, our waiter, was incredibly thoughtful and attentive, always smiling and exuding a beautiful attitude. Our lobster dinner was impeccable, with presentation that was simply incredible. Chef Joshimar is a master; his tableside presentation of our meal was like nothing we had ever seen. He absolutely deserves a raise. Restaurant Captain Stefam was delightful, reserving a special table for us on our last night. She greeted us warmly and had a bottle of our favorite wine from the night before ready for us. Her graciousness and eagerness to make our final dinner memorable were beyond expectations. We were not disappointed. Can't wait to come back for an even longer stay!

Pleasant stay. Was nervous to stay here after reading all the bad reviews. The unit was quiet and comfortable. Needed batteries in the remote and maintenance took care of it within a couple hours. The pools and workout room were very nice. Would stay here again.
