Welcome to my Luxury Ocean Front Penthouse Condominium on the world famous Malecon in downtown Puerto Vallarta
This historic two bedroom, two bath Penthouse condo is conveniently located right in the “corazon” (heart) of Puerto Vallarta.
The building was once one of the first luxury hotels in Puerto Vallarta. Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor Frequently stayed here when it was the hotel..
It has been recently renovated to create a contemporary condo has all the modern amenities . It is a beautiful blend of traditional and present day Mexican décor.
This home is beautifully appointed and has everything that you might need, including wireless internet access, cable TV, and stunning views of the bay, the Malecon, and the city.
Sitting on the terrazza you can look for dolphins and whales breaching in the bay; or treat yourself to a Sunday night dinner there watching families parading by in their 'Sunday best' .
Fishing and diving charters are just up the street. Old town, the mercado, the beach; art galleries, the cathedral; many of the best restaurants in town; are all right outside your door. If you do want to venture out a little further, you'll never wait more than two minutes for a cab here. Feeling adventurous? The bus stops nearby as well.
I Welcome you to my Fabulous Luxurious home in Puerto Vallarta !
quote from a neigbour...
"I live across the fifth floor lobby from this lovely condo. Over the past few years, I have watched the owner of this meticulous condo reinvent a lovely rental unit. She has sought out local artisans and furniture designers to compliment the already beautiful Mexican tile work, expansive kitchen and comfortable bedrooms to prepare an enjoyable stay for her guests. The condo has lovely views, looks down on the nightly activity on the Malecon and some nights you can hear the local free musical events taking place in the Ampitheater and "Lighthouse stage". It's a combination of Mexican music, crashing of waves, disco music, crowds applause and general night life activity. A moonlight cocktail at 11 PM is lively, sunrise mornings on the balcony with a cup of coffee watching the pangas come in with their catch is a treasure. Rock and roll, country western, mariachis, jazz and salsa is the beat you hear and your ear drums may need ear plugs if you're a light sleeper ...not to miss the sounds and great smells from the nearby fabulous restaurants.....you'll want to be out among them.

Magnificent Ocean / Beach Front Penthouse Condo on the Malecon
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Downtown (Viejo Vallarta)
I live in Boulder, Colorado and have been traveling to Puerto Vallarta for many years to enjoy the warmth of the sun, the ocean and the wonderful local friendly people
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Oceana Plata condominiums have once been the famous hotel near the original light house on the malecón. This was a building in the early 1960’s where Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor hung out with famous and non-famous friends in the restaurant and bar.
In-town living in Ocean Plata gives an occupant the ability to view the malecon‘s art galleries, in particular Bustamante’s “In Search of Reason” The bronze pillow -headed mother and her two children symbolize the classic story of children venturing out from the security of their mother’s care, while she is imploring them to “use reason.”
Living in the heart of the city, you experience its pulse. You are a customer of the knife sharpener man, the bread man. You walk to buy tamales for home, also stopping to purchase home-made camote for an evening dessert or tomorrow’s breakfast with cold milk. You experience the art scene, including ever-changing sand sculptures. Fireworks are frequent celebrations of light and color in front of Guadalupe Church and the town plaza.

Loud Club Music Below

While centrally located, and with amazing views, this is a condo I would choose not to stay at again because of the extremely loud club music which vibrates through the walls, and echo's into the condo, making for a not relaxing stay. It was exceptionally loud Thursday - Sunday, usually starting around 9:00 pm, and going until around 3:00 am. We ended up checking into a hotel for our last 3 nights of a 9 night stay. The description in the listing which states, "...treat yourself to a Sunday night dinner there watching families parading by in their 'Sunday best' against the backdrop of local music" is an understatement. The local music is too loud, and hardly local. It is loud club music. I wish we could say it was a relaxing atmosphere, but it was not.
Owner response: I am dissapointed you did not enjoy your stay at the condo when I did everything in my power to make you comfortable . I mentioned it was Spring Break and that the club was probably catering to the crowd that was there at the time .I myself live there part of the year and of course many other renters have passed through. I am so sorry this happened to you.The legal cut off time for live music is 2 a.m. in P.V. Most people that want to stay downtown know there are clubs in the immediate area.

This is a wonderful place you have here! It exceeded our expectations and I believe it is in the absolute perfect location.. We were able to do so much even on the first travel day - perhaps more so knowing you don't need to call a taxi & get everywhere walking. The condo was very clean and, as expected, I love your taste in art and decor... very lovely. You have chosen to make every even small place special We have very much enjoyed the condo, rooftop, and balcony during our stay. In fact, many friends have commented on various posts & videos through Facebook that they want to stay here, too!
