Has anyone purchased from Vallart Gardens?

We have also been scammed by the tune of 40 thousand and want to know how you the credit card to pay some money back. Our credit card was issued by Barclays through rci and we had to pay them off. Any information you can give us would be helpful. Please respond. Thank you

Yes and we are so upset. We were scammed to the tune of 40 thousand. Help!!!

Has anyone found a way to get your money back from this scam at Vallarta gardens with the marketing group who does not reply to us and will not answer phones or letters? Has anyone gone to the news to an investigative reporter who can make this public? I don’t want others to go through this loss as we have. It is a lot of money to loose.

Photocopy your contract. Read your contract thoroughly, and highlight where you think breaches have occurred. Itemize (document) them all on paper. Research what you find. Speak to Barclays if you have not already? If they also are your personal bank, speak to someone there who has credit card knowledge. Find an employee at your bank whom you have confidence in; show them this website. Find other websites with similar threads about VG. Go to the Net to find as much free legal advice if you prefer not to incur legal expenses. Understand clearly the definition of fraud, find related examples in you contract, and take them to Barclays.

We have had the exact same experience. "Purchased" in June of 2024 and haven't been able to contact them since. What can we do now?

We own at Vallarta gardens and have since 2020, but have not ever used it because there’s never any availability for our season when we can go. Yes, we were told we could sell the weeks we don’t use, but were told after year 1 that the company went out of business. Almost a year ago I got a call from Capital Real Estate Advisory Group who said they would sell our VG timeshare, after $20k in “taxes” they stopped taking our calls and emails!! I had printouts of the escrow account our money went into, and a copy of the business license. If anybody knows of a law suit against them, I would love to know! I called Charlotte, NC police department and they said because money exchanged hands that we would have to go through attorney general, and BBB. NC Attorney General said we needed to contact the Charlotte PD…ugh!!!

I'm so sorry this happened to you also. I've been trying to get my money from them since 2023 and now I'm totally being ghosted by Capital Marketing. I cannot believe that Barclay's Bank has played a part in this scam. I'm disappointed and out alot of money.

same here working on a lawsuit in Mexico is anyone interested? email howardbehling@gmail.com

yes, it is a fraud working on a lawsuit now in Mexico many lawsuits since 2009

I bought in January 2025 with the agreement that they purchased my Florida property. I started making payments and I’m not feeling very good about them keeping up their end of the bargain. Is there any advice that someone could give me moving forward? I feel helpless.

We have also been scammed. $>50K. Is there a class action lawsuit we an join please?

We have purchased several years ago and Capital Realestate Advisory reached out to us last year and again a day ago. Is it legitimate? We weren’t interested in selling last year but are thinking about it now. We’ve used our time in Mexico on several occasions and the Management has been very accommodating and kind to us. Am I missing something? I’m not currently drinking any margaritas🤣

There are pages and pages of people who have been scammed by this crowd, and yet for you "Management has been very accommodating and kind to us." What's wrong with this picture?

I'm pretty sure I know.

Hello,

I’m out a lot of money from Vallarta gardens. If you have a law suit, I would like to join in! My email is xjrafaelx@gmail.com Thank you,

Anyone recently heard of Sun Title Services working with The Boutique Private Residence Club to resell your Vallarta gardens membership?

My take, having monitored this board for several years since we avoided being sucked in: it's amazing how many different ways this den of thieves can devise to steal (even more of) your money.

Sorry. if they promised you money for marketing weeks or for your other timeshare that you gave to them, you will never get it. This scam has been going on for years now. I believe many people have tried with no success through lawyers and Profeco. It is thought that you just gave your money to the cartel and there s no one who will touch them. Join the club- probably hundreds or thousands by now.

We were just contacted by them and are leary, what was your experience?

Has anyone been contacted by Capital Real Estate Advisory Group about purchasing your Kovay/Vallarta Gardens membership?

Hello

We purchased 70plus weeks in November 2022 from Vallarta Gardens (Koval Gardens) at 1.2 Km.Carr. Punta de Mita, La Cruz de Huanacaxtle Mexico 63732 .

They were using Concierge Club as their marketing company in 2022 and have moved onto another marketing company in 2025 to continue offering their services with the hope of marketing your weeks. (Not)

Our weeks are useless as they offered us use of a stufio unit only at some of their sister marketing resorts such as Mio Hotel, Hotel Matlali, Holiday Inn in Puerto Vallarta and Occidental.

We wrote a letter by email to Profeco ( Mexico Consumer Relations) extranjeros@profeco.gob.mx and had a time snd date online meeting in June 2025 and the owners was a no show.

Profeco lawyer has contacted me by email and would appreciate any assistance from those out there who know who the owner is and the new legal business address of the marketing company TTR GO, S.A DE C.V. located at Paseo De Los Cocoteros #55, Nuevo Vallarta, Bahia De Banderas Nayarit 67735 Mexico

It appears that I have become another victim of a bait and switch timeshare sale and was told by Claudia F. that Vallata Gardens ( Koval Gardens) resort is sold out and cannot use the resort for my timeshare weeks purchased.

Yours truly

Very frustrated that a legitimate travel company, Monster Reservation Group, would send their customers to unvetted scams. We purchased last week and trying to get out of it, but doubt that we will be able to. Would love to talk to those few people that we did see using the property while we were there.
