Great 4 days in Punta Mita
Had a wonderful stay at this property. Manager is super communicative and we really enjoyed all the amenities that the property offered included such as the great beach clubs. Added bonus was having a heated pool. We also took advantage of the chef offering and it was great. We had fresh cooked meals while kids could play which is great for a family vacation. Highly recommend this place.

Book this place!
Looking for a VRBO in Punta Mita behind the gates? Look no further- this place is perfect. Host is very helpful and responsive. The villa is a 2nd floor condo (there’s an elevator) and is exactly as shown in the photos. Housekeeping staff is excellent. Very comfortable and gorgeous views. I’ve stayed in other villas behind the gates and would definitely return to this one!

Amazing Vacation
Villa Cualli was incredible! Everything was perfect. The villa was beautiful - impeccable design and furnishings. Top quality kitchen appliances and cookware. Each bedroom had its own bath and balcony. The view was spectacular from the pool/patio. All rooms were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for our group. Fernando was extremely helpful in arranging everything from dinners to an extra golf cart and airport transportation. Ruby was super sweet and did an incredible job keeping the house spotless. We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Cualli and will definitely return!

Shiny & new - Great for 2 families
We stayed here with 2 families, 9 people total and it was perfect! The location within the gates is great, close to St Regis and not far from other beach clubs. We rented an additional golf cart, which worked out perfect for our size crew. The property is brand new, very clean, with great views of the ocean. Housekeeper Ana and her crew kept it very neat and tidy and cooked us breakfast when we requested. She is an amazing cook!
Fernando helped before arrival with reservations and getting us the extra golf cart. He was responsive and helpful. We ordered groceries beforehand and it was all ready and waiting for us when we arrived. There was no itemized bill for groceries at the end, but the price was reasonable.
We have stayed at older El Encanto units in the past and we would definitely stay at Villa Cualli again! It’s our new go to unit.

Villa Cualli Excellence
Villa Cualli was the perfect Mexico experience. The condo featured large spaces, brand new furnishings, beautifully appointed and all the beds were very comfortable! We liked where El Encanto is situated inside the gates - not too far from any of the beach clubs and restaurants. Anna Rosa did an amazing job caring for the unit and preparing our breakfast each morning. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Fernando for all your help getting us into this beautiful unit!
