New Year

This condo is everything it says it is. Spectacular! The view from the balcony is absolutely breathtaking. We were there for New Year's Eve and I have to say it was the best fireworks display I have ever seen! We had 2 children ages 8 & 9 and 4 adults in our party and there was plenty of room in the condo for everyone. The condo is very comfortable and has everything you need from games, internet connection, cable tv etc... The pool and grounds at the GV are beautiful. Perfect for all ages. Everything at the GV is very well taken care of. The restaurant on site makes grabbing lunch and cocktails an easy way to spend the day at the pool. Desantos restaurant is very good and within walking distance. You can grab a cab ride to town or take the bus right outside the gate. We look forward to coming back to the GV. Lee was very helpful and easy to communicate with. He responds quickly if you have questions. We couldn't have had a better trip!
Owner response:So glad you liked the condo and grounds and I have a host of additional restaurant recommendations! Thanks for adding Desantos. To the readers of this and the previous review, one family checked out 12/31 and the next checked in 12/31, that is why two families are both writing of spending New Years there.

My wife and I stayed in this unit over Christmas and New Years Eve with our three children, ages 19, 21 and 22. Everyone loved the unit, the property grounds, location, view and amenities. The landlord is very responsive to questions before you arrive and has professional staff on site to meet you upon your arrival. We would definitely recommend this unit to friends and family.

Right on the ocean, this condo is tastefully decorated and spacious with all the comforts we could want. On the eleventh floor, the views were perfect. The large front balcony was a great place to ease into the day, have breakfast or dinner, relax and read, sip a cocktail, watch the birds, or check out the pool activity below. The modern kitchen had everything needed and was great for cooking. The pool area, with several large blue pools, was pristinely clean with manicured landscaping, choices or sun or shade, and offering a restaurant/bar with good food and reasonable prices. The fitness room was convenient and fairly well equipped with many aerobic machines and a weight station. Staff was friendly and helpful. The location was far enough away from the noise and hubbub of the Malecon to be truly relaxing, but close enough that an inexpensive cab or cheap bus ride would get you to the action in a few minutes. Taxis were always waiting a bus stop was right in front. Groceries, shops, and restaurants were within an easy walk. A great place and highly recommended.

Beautiful, Luxurious, Vacation Condo

This condo has all the comforts of home and more (a better kitchen than mine). Driving through the main gate we took notice of the beautifully landscaped grounds with palms and lush tropical flowers and foliage. The open air lobby is impressive and inviting with a great ocean breeze even on the hottest days. The condo was fully furnished with everything we needed for a great vacation. The décor is very stylish and chic with a contemporary feel. The beds, pillows and linens gave us a great night’s sleep. There were plenty of fluffy towels as well as beach towels. The washer and dryer were a great bonus to have. The gourmet fully furnished kitchen had everything we needed and was great for cooking breakfast. There is a large grocery store several blocks away. We were able to walk to it but we took a cab to get groceries back to the condo. We enjoyed the balcony with its awesome views of the bay and town. It had a table for six and a hot tub. The WIFI works throughout the condo including the balcony. There were six people and in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone. The complex has at least four swimming pools and plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas and several little cabanas. There is a cute open air restaurant at the pool that serves meals, snacks and drinks. You can eat in the restaurant or the waiters will come to you where you are seated at one of the pools. The guacamole was amazing. I had it every day. Yum! Overall I highly recommend this condo. We had an awesome time.

The condo was beautiful, comfortable, and inviting. Everything was provided, which made for a relaxing week. The grounds are pristine, and the numerous infinity pools with the view of the beach and water were breathtaking. When needed, the condo staff was courteous and helpful. Shops and eateries within walking distance, and easy access to taxis and buses to explore further. All in all, a great place to vacation, soak up the sun, eat and relax. What could be better?

My husband,daughter and her children just recently returned from a most wonderful experience of staying in this condo. We found it to be convenient, comfortable and absolutely beautiful! Another great plus of this property is that the owner was so helpful in providing useful information. Shopping for your basic needs are a quick easy walk.CRüe property is conveniently located midway between the airport and downtown. I have been to Puerto Vallarta multiple times and I don't think I have ever stayed at a prettier place. The views are stunning and everything you need is right there.

Puerto Vallarta 2011 Trip

We recently stayed at Lee's Condo during President's Week 2011. This is a beautiful condo with awesome views of the water. Pictures do not do this home justice. It accommodated 8 people comfortably. Lee was extremely helpful and transaction was smooth. This home is located in the 1st tower overlooking the pool and water. Waking up early in the morning to watch the sun rise and the whales in the bay, is breathtaking. Do not pass this up.

We had a wonderful week at this fabulous condo, arriving the week before Christmas. With the three separate bedrooms and bathrooms and two with king size beds, our party of two couples and one single fit the condo very well. We golfed at Vista Vallarta golf course twice. This course boasts two fabulous 18 hole courses so we played each one - once. The bouganvilla was in full bloom on the course and absolutely stunning. The lunch there was also above average. We got comfortable with a local beach comber providing tours and purchased a boat ride out to see whales in the bay and were fortunate to see two whales, the pirate ship up close (which was fun), several turtles and several schools of dolphins. He also set us up on the Canyon River Canopy Tours (ziplining) for 30% less than the normal going rates, a favorite of the trip. The Mexican bartering was a highlight of the trip. We brought home many Mexican Christmas presents. We loved your decor so much, our daughter picked up some turtles for her outdoor courtyard. The condo layout was fabulous. We met Cindy and Jarrod and they provided above average service delivering some needed items within 5 minutes of our request. The grounds and pools were also one of the favorites and we thoroughly enjoyed just laying by the pools, soaking up the great Mexican sun and the fabulous drinks - a few to many probably. We hope to return soon to the wonderful city of Peurto Vallarta and will definitley stay at this same place.

This listing is spot on! Very nice property with amenities exactly as described. The owner is gracious & responsive. While (unlike the other over-acheivers who wrote in the guest book) we simply chilled, read, sunned & ate, we plan to return & better explore the area from here.
