Hacienda Alegre has some of the best surf and beach area on Mexico’s largest bay. Walk down your private steps (30 steps) to 200 feet of very private sandy beach. This estate is centrally located just 20 miles north of Puerto Vallarta and a 10 minutes drive from Punta Mita, home of the Four Seasons. This estate is the only family residence on Banderas Bay offering a full time cook service, a 200 feet long ocean frontage, family sized swimming pool, full sized tennis court (just resurfaced), breathtaking sunsets, burros rides, and 2 acres of lush tropical gardens. You’ll find excellent surfing right in front of the house, offering both a right and left break. The cook prepares fine Mexican cuisine and magical margaritas- so they take care of the breakfast, lunch, dinner, appetizers, cocktails and all of the dishes. There is an amazing abundance of colorful tropical birds, frolicking whales and dolphins in the winter and early spring.
Ideal for families, reunions and business retreats for up to 18 people with 9 bedrooms and 9 1/2 baths. We are restricting the number of people to 12 however.
THE EXPERIENCE:
Hacienda Alegre is unique. The main house overlooks the beach from a 25-foot cliff with sweeping, uninterrupted views east to Puerto Vallarta against a back drop of Matisse-style mountains around the horse-shoe-shaped Bay of Banderas. To the west, you look along the rugged coastline towards the Pacific Ocean. Surfing is a daily delight. The sunsets (and cocktail hour) are magical from the large patio. During the winter and early spring, the bay is visited by whales, dolphins and other interesting sea characters. Every day, summer or winter, the lines of pelicans gliding above the ocean waves never cease to amaze.

We had the pleasure of spending the Christmas holiday with our whole family (from ages 67 to 4 years old) at this magical location. Although the pictures look beautiful, they cannot do it justice!! We got full use of the pool area and tennis courts and the gardens are beautiful and immaculately kept. There was plenty of room for all of us and the rooms were first rate. The house staff were very helpful and friendly and went out of their way to accommodate our every wish - from amazing meals, to margaritas and appetizers by the pool, to a New Year's Eve bonfire and fireworks on the beach and, of course, the burro rides!! The homemade salsa and guacamole were amazing (we had them every day) and the fish tacos are to die for!! Thanks to Pablo, Martha, Ellie and Roman in particular, for all their assistance in making this a vacation of a lifetime!! Everythng was so perfect, we never left the property for the 10 days!!
Recommended for:Families with teenagers, age 55+, families with young children.
