CASITAS DE LAS FLORES (the little garden cottages)
On the private estate of Casa de Las Flores, nestled among the stately palms, climbing bougainvillea, and colorful 'Birds of Paradise' is our charming studio guest cottage - 'Casitas de Las Flores.' An entrance, separate from the main house, has been added to allow the guests more privacy during their stay.
Newly decorated in a contemporary Mexican style, the casita is perfect for one or two persons. It is furnished with a queen-size bed, sitting area (two comfy chairs, table/reading lamp), vaulted and airy ceilings, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a bathroom decorated with exquisite, hand-painted, Mexican tiles. From above, several fans circulate the cool and refreshing tropical breezes. Wireless internet and cable TV are provided.
Walk out the front door of your casita onto a private terrace, shaded by a hand-woven palapa and surrounded by impeccably maintained tropical gardens. Just steps away, located in the center part of the property, is a large pool. Perfect for dipping and swimming, the pool has been hand-tiled with a color that can only be described as the most perfect of ocean blues. There are plenty of beach chairs around the pool to soak up the sun.
The estate is located in the best residential neighborhood of Bucerias, just steps from the beach ( a 3 minute walk ) on Lazaro Cardenas #116. Across the street are the waterfront estates. Beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels are provided.
Bucerias retains the charm of Puerto Vallarta 30 years ago with its unspoiled beaches, cobble-stoned streets, lovely homes, and friendly locals. With the amenities essential to a wonderful vacation; good restaurants, from fine dining to fabulous pizza, a variety of shops, access to water sports, tours, and world-renowned golf courses nearby, you will feel quite at home in this charming ocean-side town.
Either we or our property manager will be there to 'meet and greet' you and provide you with any additional support you might need during your stay.

This is a lovely spot -- quiet and restful--and well-situated just a block from the beach and a short walk from restaurants and stores. The casita and grounds are attractive, spotless, and comfortable; the owners (who are on-site) were helpful and friendly but never intrusive. Highly recommended!Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

If you are looking for an opportunity to explore the colorful and enriching culture of Mexico, to experience a very caring community, to enjoy beautiful beaches and to savor the tastes of fine restaurants, this is the place to stay. The owner, Candace, is friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful as she goes out of her way to make your stay comfortable and memorable. She responds to requests quickly and efficiently, from a new coffee pot to salad plates. Mercedes, the property's competent maid, ensures that the casita is clean, well equipped, and has plenty of clean towels. After a busy day of touring, the pool and beautiful garden offer a special and quiet retreat. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 week visit and plan to return next year to this unbeatable setting.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

The photos do not do it justice. The care and attention to detail for this property was apparent from the moment we entered the gate. The pool, the palapa covered patio, the kitchen, bath, and sleeping area are all good sized, warm, inviting, beautifully decorated and very well maintained. The garden foliage was tropical and lush. Candace and Chuck were extremely helpful for our first visit to this area and it felt like they were old friends before we left. We can't wait to visit again!Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

After finding this casita/property on VRBO and arriving there in person - it was beyond our expectations. The property is a garden with such wonderrful bird life. We would have access to sun or shade. The pool refreshing and clean. The casita was spotless and Mercedes was fastidious keeping it that way. The location was wonderful as it was 3 minutes to the ocean and 5 minutes to the town central where we were tempted by art galeries, markets and a nice aray of restaurants. Candace, the owner, was very helpful for finding anything or place one might need After two weeks, we were saddened to leave this little piece of heaven.Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Staying at Casitas de Las Flores is like staying in a small paradise. This is our third visit here and it will not be our last. We love the casitas and their decore, whcih is just like the photos promise. Having a very private place to swim and enjoy the wonderful gardens is such a gift. This is the perfect place to just relax and enjoy the warmth of both the climate and people. Recent additions to the property including the Wi-Fi and pool updates are greatly appreciated. Thank you Candace for another wonderful visit. We recommend your casitas to everyone we know travelling to the Puerto Vallarta area.Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My husband and I are new retirees and recently spent 6 weeks at this charming casita. Being new to the Peurto Vallart/ Buceries area and also new to choosing rental properties on VRBO, we feel we've hit the jackpot with having the opportunity to stay in Buceries and finding such a wonderful place to stay. I feel strongly that a great rental can "make or break" your vacation, particularly when you're staying for a lengthy period of time. I will always have fond memories of our stay at Casita De Las Flores. I loved the Mexican decor, beautiful tropical garden setting with beautiful birds, the huge dining area under our palapa where we ate all our meals, read, used our laptop, and just relaxed after our long walks on the beach and a refreshing dip in Candace's gorgeous swimming pool. One does not need beach front rental property when a casita this charming in a beautiful area of town is only a 1 minute walk from the beach. This casita is in an ideal location, a short walk to El Centro, close to great shopping and many fine restaurants, and just a short bus ride to PV. Candace was an excellent host and a wonderful soarce of information about the area. I highly recommend this rental property to anyone wanting peace and relaxation yet close to beach and all the other amenities Buceries offers. A picture is often worth a 1000 words and this place is just how the pictures present it.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

What an amazing little place to stay in Bucerias! Central location with a quick bus ride to Puerto Vallarta, a 10-15 minute walk to downtown Bucerias (which is a great way to burn off those calories from the amazing restaurants!) and just around the corner from the sandy beach! Our little Casita was so comfortable, relaxing, and private! We found it hard to get going before noon everyday as we just loved sitting in our own little dining area outside. The pool is clean and cool - perfect for a dip at the end of the day! The gardens are beautiful and the fresh cut flowers were a nice touch. Many thanks to Candice - she was so helpful with providing information, and has mastered the art of being available, but giving each guest their own space. She is a wealth of knowledge about the surrounding area. Also, a big thank you to Mercedes - one of the staff members - who has a great knowledge of Bucerias as well. We enjoyed speaking with you in Spanish! We would stay here again in a heart beat!Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My husband & I just spent an amazing week at Casitas De Las Flores. We stayed in Puerto Vallarta the prior week with our adult sons and were looking for some quiet down time to recharge. The Casita was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. We spent many days and evenings lounging by the pool and enjoying the lush tropical foliage. Candace was an excellent host and we enjoyed getting to know her. We had never booked through VRBO before so were a little leery. Candace was always prompt replying to my emails and answered all my questions, and then some. We would highly recommend this vacation property and are looking forward to our return.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

This is a Go-To rental for us. We have stayed here twice and in her Casa Fandango, which is also in Bucerias. We will continue to book here without hesitation whenever we are visiting Bucerias. Both rental units are in great locations, being only a few steps to the beach and a short stroll to town. It is safe, clean, private and worry free. Candace and Chuck will make sure you are comfortable. Thank you again, we had yet another great time in your Casita!!Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

Candace and Chuck are such gracious hosts that you feel like friends by the time you leave. My husband and I spent a month (Nov. 16, 2011 - Dec. 15, 2011) in one of their two casitas. The lush, tropical garden setting is so tranquil and relaxing and the beautiful blue-tiled pool so invitingly refreshing that we had a difficult time dragging ourselves outside the property during our stay. But,we did manage a long beach walk every morning on the miles of white sand beach, the access just a short block away. And enjoyed some of the many restaurants and shopping and markets in Bucerias town and surrounding areas. The casita is well-appointed and tastefully decorated with a designer eye. It is fronted by a huge palapa, perfect for relaxing on lounge chairs and where we ate most of our meals. We have no hesitation is recommending this lovely property.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

About the owner: We purchased Casa de Las Flores in 2003. The main house and the two guest cottages were completely remodeled/updated, returning Casa de Las Flores to the grandeur of an old Mexican Estate, nestled in the best residential area of Bucerias. The gardens are lush and filled with colorful tropical trees and plants. Come experience staying in one of our lovely casitas. This is the place to stay if you are looking for the feel of 'old mexico'.
