There is an option to pay for all inclusive at this hotel?? All-inclusive option is not even offered to paid stay by looking at the website. But it would be nice to have an option to do all-inclusive.

This hotel sells rooms with 2 double beds, but only allows you to select up to 3 people per room. Does anyone know if they will get notice or complain about having 4 in a 2 bed room? Going down for a birthday weekend with friends and family and 4 per room makes more sense. I wouldn't even mind selecting 4 and paying the difference if nominal, but it isn't an option.
I've had SPG in Mexico City get very huffy about having more people in a room than was in the reservation system (despite it being a 2Q room).
Of course US hotels never check or care, but other countries sometimes do.

If I recall correctly, this hotel is very inexpensive, or at least it used to be, and you might just enjoy getting another room.

Question--I was staying here one night before heading to Punta Mita and the hotel lists Rental Cars -- Can anyone tell me what agency the Rental Car company is at the hotel?

I stayed here after 5 nights at the St Regis Punta Mita due a flight reschedule adding another day. I used a free night certificate from a promotion earlier in the year and am pleasantly surprised for the value. I was upgraded to a 2-story junior suite and the kids loved the in-room jacuzzi. We had to wait 15 minutes for our room to be ready and were offered 4 drinks coupons, which really wasn't necessary in my opinion. Its a very old building but well-maintained. The public areas are quite nice for what they are (a resort catering to masses). The lounge had a decent spread (I do not recommend the wine though) where my kids filled up and did not want to eat dinner.

None that I saw but given how close the hotel is to the airport, you can likely get any company to drop-off the car or pick you up.

Booked Partial Ocean View Double Room 5 hours prior to arrival into PVR and was immediately upgraded to Premium Ocean View Double Room with Whirlpool on the Balcony.
I suspect they would have easily upgraded to a Junior Suite with a King bed but I needed a room with Double Beds.
The Westin Club Lounge was one of the best that we've been to in North America and the assortment of food during Breakfast and Evening Canapes featured local dishes of Jalisco with a ton of American options as well.

Something must have changed! That used to be one of the worst lounges I’ve ever been to.
