Amazing Views

Booking this condo was a fantastic experience. Tony was very committed to getting us the contract and condo information as soon as possible. He was also very quick to respond back if we had questions. I appreciated that. My husband, stepson, and I stayed at this condo over a long Memorial Weekend. It is one of the most amazing areas of PV, very charming. Tony gave great directions to the home. The property management office sent someone to give us the keys and show us around the condo. Everyone in the building was friendly. The furnishings were very nice. The view from each bedroom was fantastic. Plenty of room to spread out after a long day in the sun. If you didn’t feel like cooking there’s a binder with area restaurants listed in it. The condo is a short walk to a beach (easy street)... The bus stop and taxis are also down the hill which is convenient... The internet and USA calling was also another great amenity. We have stayed all over PV in the past but truly fell in love with Conchas Chinas.

Four of us stayed at this condo for my son's wedding. The owner was very friendly and helpful prior to our visit- he made sure we received all of the necessary information for arriving and staying at the condo. The property managers met us upon arrival and they were also helpful & friendly. A lovely spot, with a great view!

The Puerto Vallerta home is modern, comfortable and well maintain. The views of the Pacific Ocean are simply breathtaking. The master bedroom, living room and kitchen are fantastic. One of my best vacations ever!

Owner response:The views and the sounds of the ocean is what made me fall in love with my home.

A wonderful week in this beautiful condo

We have thoroughly enjoyed our time in this condo. We are two couples, one from suburban Chicago, the other from Colorado. We are all experienced travelers and in our young sixties. The views here are simply spectacular beyond belief! The owner has clearly done a full re-do within the last couple of years, e.g. granite coutertops, all new stainless steel appliances, updated bathrooms, etc. Beyond that, the location is terrific; a six minute walk down to the bus and cab stand and then only a 5-10 minute ride to the best places in town. All in all, a very fine experience. We are already planning our trip back next year!!

Owner response:There is so much to do in PV. If it's your first time, I really suggest staying in the South Side instead of Nuevo. All the best restaurants and views of the ocean and jungle are on the south side. I try to cater to my guests suggesting restaurants and tours according to their interests. As I said before, PV is the closest thing to paradise on earth as I have ever experienced. And I've been around!

Denver visitor

We have been to PV several times and our visit to this condo in Feb. 2011 is by far the best accommodations we have had. The view of Banderas Bay is absolutely stunning and were very impressed with modern kitchen complete with granite countertop, filtered water, icemaker and microwave among other items. We slept with the windows open and heard the ocean each night and enjoyed the fantastic view. We took advantage of the local phone line to make restaurant reservations (try the Red Cabbage!) and check out local attractions (IFC Home Tour, diving, whale watching, etc.). Also, the USA line allowed us to check in with family and the airlines without having to figure out how to make an international call on my cell phone. Both the local property manager and the owner checked in with me to make sure everything was going well. I really appreciated that! We were really surprised to have access to a laptop which allowed our group to view photos while we were there and check our email. The condo is in a very upscale neighborhood and we felt totally safe and had easy access to everything. Can't wait to return!

Owner response:None of my reviewers have mentioned the Apple TV there. With so many things to do in PV, including doing nothing and just daydreaming on the lounge looking out upon the bay, why waste the time watching a movie! Tony

A Paradise Within A Paradise!

Date of Stay: 01/09/11 Review Submitted: 02/11/11

My husband and I have been visiting our favorite paradise, Puerto Vallarta, for the past 10 years. A few years ago we discovered this spectacular condo and found it to be our new "home" whenever we visit. The views are truly amazing, and the condo is marvelously appointed - from the kitchen with granite countertop and every possible amenity to the spacious living area and lovely bedrooms and bathrooms. One of our favorite things is the glassed-in master bathroom tub with a view all the way south to the famous Los Arcos of Mismaloya. It truly is a slice of paradise within a beautiful city combining lush jungle and beautiful sandy & rocky beaches. One of our favorite things to do is to walk around the Conchas Chinas neighborhood, known locally as the Beverly Hills of Puerto Vallarta. A fun beach path leads all the way from Conchas Chinas beach to Los Muertos beach, perfect for picture-taking, beach-combing, and just gazing at the blue, blue ocean. We simply cannot wait to return!

Owner response:I love it when people have a wonderful time! This was my favorite place when I was looking to buy, which was a very long process. I think I viewed almost everything in my price rage over a couple pf weeks! Thank God my Realtor is a friend, anyone else would have gave up on me!

Paradise on earth

Guest: Nualakav (Chicago)
Date of Stay: 12/24/10 Review Submitted: 02/04/11

We were two adults and three teenagers. We had a fantastic time. Mornings started with watching dolphins in the bay while sipping coffee. Lunch on beach at LindeMar at bottom of road. Then into town via beach route. Back to condo (cab) to swim in pool and change. Bus to town where we ate at a different restaurant every evening. Walk along the malecon. Sampled some great margaritas at fab bars. Then back "home" via cab. Also did zip lining, mule-riding, swimming with dolphins, etc. No wonder we called it "paradise on earth". We will definitely be back and hopefully Tonys condo will be available. Loved it!

Owner response:There is so much to do in PV and I'm glad you took advantage of so many things. Most people there speak English so its so easy communicating. Love the buses, less than .60 cents anywhere around town and an experience in itself! Come back soon!

What a wonderful home...

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with the rest of the world. We had such an amazing time and are already discussing our return. Your home is in the perfect location, extremely comfortable, and we could not have asked for a better view or friendlier staff. I would recommend this home to anyone seeking peace and quite along with the serenity of the waves crashing below. Having a USA as well as a local telephone were terrific perks. Our cell phones were suppose to work in other countires, but as we found out, we could receive calls, but not make them, so being able to call home and check on the kids was such a stress-relief. Thank you again, and we will definitely stay again.

Magic time in PV

We highly recommend that place. From the beginning, we could feel everything would be perfect. Tony is extremely well organized and you'll find everything you need in his fantastic condo. The view is magic in every room, the beds are extremely comfortable, the kitchen is awesome. It's walking distance from down town, the beach is right down the condo. Our kids loved it too. We hope we'll go back there soon and often! We only met friendly people, and all the restaurants we tried were excellent. You're in good hands, indeed.

Owner response:Thank you Nathalie, it really makes me happy to be able to share my home and to have happy guests! hope to have you back soon!

The perfect place ! Breathtaking Veiws

I have stayed in this beautiful condo twice now and I'm planing on going back next year. Very clean, very quiet, tastefully decorated and the views from every window are breathtaking. The pics don't do it justice. Nestled into the hills of Conchas Chinas, which is a very exclusive neighborhood surrounded by many great homes, this condo was a find. I believe the first word I spoke when I walked into this place was WOW ! A short taxi ride or a very nice walk and your in the center of town or at the beach. The pool area is perfect ! The condo has all the amenities one might need, Bose stereo system, DVD player, Flat Screen TV in master bedroom and living area, great kitchen and lots of counter space. I stayed home two nights out of seven and just enjoyed the condo. Both the owner and the management company have been very helpful with booking the condo, getting around and recommending some must do's and see in Puerto Vallarta. I highly recommend staying here, just don't book the weeks I want ..... please !
