Re: Has anyone purchased from Vallart Gardens? (by Glynis M.):

Maybe we were there at a different time of year, tide. We didn't have to go into the water to get to Bucerias, yes lots of rocks for 5 min but it was manageable for us with good shoes and we did do both ways more than once. I totally understand your frustration and having to pay HOA for a much bigger unit. Can't believe they aren't honoring the buyback promise!! You certainly aren't being treated right on that. For those of you that bought less than a 2 bedroom, I don't think you will see anything in 2014. They are concentrating on the 2 bedroom reefs right now. We were at least happy to see "some" construction going on. We are going there again next year so I will post again with what I see when we are there. We did find out they had fired 2/3 of the staff from 2012 so hopefully some "admin" changes will be on the positive front so folks may want to try again to deal with management on your issues. But I know that doesn't help for units that were promised to be built and aren't there yet. I do hope everything does get built though because it is a beautiful property and we were treated very well there and love the location. They do have a facebook and website now and are posting some pics etc. I did find out they are planning to move the spa/gym to the front of the property and build another restaurant. The studios/l bedrooms are still being planned on the beach front area. I'll post again if I find out any other news. In hindsight, we also agree buying pre construction was not the smartest thing we've ever done, and were relieved to see a unit built that we purchased. And it did exceed our expectations. Ironically, we weren 't even offered studio or l bedroom when we bought in Dec 2012 or may have gone that route.
