Great place. Everything you need is in the condo. Jesús, the manager, is excellent and will help you with anything you need. The 5 de Diciembre neighborhood is great if you want to experience Mexican culture. There is a great grocery store (Ley’s) at the bottom of the hill, and there are plenty of food truck options nearby if you don’t feel like cooking.

Amazing stay at this condo!

We have been coming to Puerto Vallarta for decades and this place is a must - it has the most incredible view for morning coffee until evening sunset. Kevin and Jesus were incredible for anything we asked and it couldn't have been easier to book this and be there! I couldn't give this a higher recommendation!

Sun food and fun!

We loved the size of the apartment. For two couples it was a perfect size. The extra room was perfect for reading. The living area was big enough for 2 yoga mats. If you have to climb that hill a couple of times a day then you need to stretch! The pool across the street was awesome. Everyone was very friendly. Jesus was helpful and Salvedore had the biggest smile and was so friendly. We loved being there.

Amazing experience

I can’t say enough about this property! Great location, spacious, great internet, views that took our breath away, and close to it all! This was our first Vrbo experience and it was above our expectations! Walmart and Costco were a quick $5-8 trip away to stock up on whatever we needed, as well as local stores for essentials. Many restaurants nearby with great food! The 2 pools were excellent for our family of 5. Peaceful and water temp was perfect! I can’t say enough about this property! Everything we needed for our 1 month family vaca!

Great condo for your stay in PV

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a stunning VRBO condo rental, and it was an experience I will cherish forever. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with a beautifully decorated, immaculately clean space that immediately felt like a home away from home. The attention to detail in every aspect of the condo was exceptional. The living area was spacious and comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the local attractions. The kitchen was fully equipped with modern appliances, making it easy to prepare meals. The bedrooms were cozy. One of the highlights was the breathtaking view from the balcony. Whether it was enjoying a morning coffee or winding down with a glass of wine in the evening, the scenery was simply mesmerizing. The location of the condo was ideal, situated close to shops, restaurants, and entertainment options, yet it was also a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle. The hill is very steep to walk but we used Ubers for the hike back up the hill. The host Kevin, was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring that our stay was perfect from start to finish. Jesus was also very helpful and kind! Overall, this VRBO condo rental exceeded all expectations and provided a perfect blend of luxury and comfort. I can’t recommend it highly enough and am already looking forward to my next visit!

Amazing stay!

My family and I loved our stay - a spacious area with a lovely kitchen, beautiful view and comfortable beds. There was tons of AC and fans to stay cool and three different pools to enjoy. Although the place was on top of a hill, there's a stair case you can use. Communication with the host and property manager was great - checkout process was unclear at first, but they responded very quickly! Thank you for letting us stay :)

GREAT LOCATION, COZY HOME, WILL BE BACK

Kevin, the owner, personally reached out to give us a rundown of his place and its surroundings. The check-in process was smooth, we greatly appreciate that Kevin and Jesus (the property manager) allowed us to store our luggage in the condo and our rental car in the garage a few hours prior to the check in time. The amenities within the condo surpassed our expectations, making us feel right at home. There were minor cleanliness issues but that didn't bother us much. While the location requires navigating a steep hill, it's ideal for those who don't mind a bit of exercise, especially after indulging in all the culinary delights nearby! We thoroughly enjoyed being able to walk to places with our small children, always feeling safe even late at night. We're already looking forward to returning!

Family vacation

It was great! My two adult sons and their 2 roommates joined me on this trip to PV. The condo was very clean, spacious and well equipped. The location is fantastic and the views are spectacular. We had a car but choose to walk to the Malecon and when we needed to just run to the corner store. The only drawback I can see is the last 2 blocks are rather steep, but kids are 25 yr old, I’m in my 60’s and we enjoyed the excercise. The owner provided great directions for traversing those 2 blocks in the car, so it was not a problem. Already looking at dates to visit again in the next a few months.

We had a great time and really enjoyed our 2 week stay. (In total we rented 3 units) The condos were all in a great location and clean. The staff was very accommodating and replied promptly. We received great food recommendations from other condo owners and they were very welcoming. The pool was refreshing. The condos are up on a hill, the walk down isn’t too bad. The walk up was tough for a few of my family members so we frequently used Uber or taxis. For those that like a light exercise it’s a great spot. With that said, being on the hill provided great views of the ocean and city. We would recommend this condo and would absolutely return for another visit.
