Super Fun and Memorable Check Mark on our Bucket List!!!

Guest: Sheila (FLORIDA)
Date of Stay: 01/25/12 Review Submitted: 03/06/12

My husband and I have never been to PVR, so this was a Bucket List place for us to visit. We spent the week with fantastic friends and brought in the New Year at the Mayan Resort down on the ocean beach front and the most incredible fireworks we've ever seen. The next day started an incredible journey in PVR. I could not imagine a more perfect way to bring in the New Year than to feel the peaceful breeze and fresh air as the boats come in and out of the Marina...all from the comfort of our bedroom, that is! The Villa was more than perfect, our room was spacious with picture window, private balcony and our own bathroom. I lost count on how many bedrooms were at the Villa, but I understand that many families bring their whole family to stay at the villa for special occasions and vacation time. I loved that the Villa was very centrally located; we walked next door to the mall and other amenities like the gym, golf and my massage were mere blocks away. The Villa staff was very helpful and the guards at the front gate always made us feel welcomed and safe because they were very much aware who was coming in to the property. Even in the wee hours of the morning after a night long of partying, the guard recognized us and then warmly welcomed us home. I could go on and on about our trip to San Sebastian, the gorgeous sun sets on the bay, the boat trip and that life-long memory we have from the Dolphin adventure where we got to spend an hour with two of God's greatest animals...but most of all, outside of the quiet and comfortable time we spent at the Villa, I'll only mention that the food was absolutely divine! Great restaurants and the recipe for the PVR margarita should be patented! We hope to go again and really enjoyed our time in PVR.

Wonderful Stay - February 2011

Guest: Phyllis (Sacramento, CA, US)
Date of Stay: 02/20/11 Review Submitted: 03/03/11

Four couples stayed in this beautiful condo in February. With 4 bedrooms and 5 baths, there was plenty of room and privacy. The kitchen is fully equiped and big enough for multiple cooks. We enjoyed eating on the patio with the view of the marina. There is a small shopping center with a grocery store and bank just outside of the villas which was quite convenient. The beach is an easy 5-minute walk from the villa or you can take the shuttle. Loved sitting on the beach in the provided lounge chairs under the palapas and having drinks delivered to us. Some of us took advantage of the gym while the rest of the group enjoyed massages at the spa--what a treat! The owner made sure we had everything needed. Rafael checked with us on both the first and last day to welcome us and invite us back. We would definitely stay here again!

What a great stay. This our second time at this condo. Adults only this year. Plenty of room for four couples. The property and accomodations clean and well maintained.Ralph was there to greet us when we arrived. Had recommendations for dinner places. Fajhita Republic was good and a fun place. Etc. on the beach, also good for lunch. A short taxi ride to Bucerias and you are at Karen's, Mark's or Eva's Brickhouse. Great food. The walks on the beach were good at low tide. The beach bar service was excellent. I would highly reccomend this condo to family and friends.

7 Fantastic Days at Grand Marina Villas

Date of Stay: 05/15/10 Review Submitted: 05/28/10

My wife and I and our adult children and their families stayed at this 4 bedroom villa May 15-22, 2010 and couldn't have been happier with the accomodations. It worked perfectly for our famility. The villa was well maintained and furnished, It was exactly as depicted in the listing. Nelinda and Raphael were great hosts and very helpful in making the reservation. The nearby Paradise Village beach club at the Playa Royale was great with an excellent restaurant, pool, towel service, locker room and beach. We had an outstanding meal at the nearby Fajita Republic restaurant and highly recommend it. We will likely return to this villa for a future family vacation and would recommend it to anyone looking for large comfortable accomodations at a great beach.

Date of Stay: 03/25/10 Review Submitted: 05/07/10

We spent 8 glorious days at this villa in 2010. Spacious, luxurious, and comfortable are all apropos is describing this beautiful mansion. Fifty feet to the pool and hot tub, well-appointed and incredibly maintained, this is more than anyone would expect. Walking distance to restaurants and a shopping mall as well. Great for couples or families, There is plenty to do and see.

Owner response:Thank you Mr. Ronald for taking care of our beautiful villa. I hope you can comeback soon! :)

The house was amazing! We had 10 people and it still wasn't crowded. I can't say anything negative about the house. Perfect! The pool and guest service were both great. The only negative about our stay was the beach access. We paid $172 for the social membership and only used it for the beach. We feel the beach should not have to be paid for. They also wouldn't let us bring our cooler or any food to the beach through this 'exclusive' access point.

We had a great time at the Villa. Perfect location within Paradise Village...the villa walks right out to the pool. Perfect if you have little ones, you can sit by the pool as they nap. Nelida was so easy to work with. We loved hanging out on the outdoor patio as the sun went down. Great time!

We have recently returned from a fantastic stay at this villa. We had a great time and loved having the pool just steps outside our patio door and the shopping plaza steps outside the front door. There was lots of space for all of us. It would have been nice to be closer to the beach but then we wouldn't have had such a nice space with a pool so close so it was a good trade off. Antonio at the front gate was fabulous! Thanks!

Excelente, Fantastico !!!! Two families (10 of us) stayed and enjoyed the week. Everything you need is close. Enjoyed the quiet area around the pool after spending time at the hotels beach area. Best of both worlds. Loved the villa. Nelida was outstanding and answered all of our concerns. Would love to come back.

FABULOUS property. 10 of us stayed and we were more than comfortable. The location was perfect lots of nearby restaurants, shops, and quiki grocery. A real treasure to have such a quiet area to relax with the seperate pool and grilling Palapa. Yet so close to the main hotel's pool, waterslide, beach and spa. You cant beat it!!

This house is beautiful, spacious and comfortable. With a group of 3 adults and 5 teenagers, we were able to spread out and each enjoy our own activities. Extrememly secure and private. Lots of conveniences in walking distance, but not quite as close to the beach as we hoped. However, the advantage of being a bit away from the beach is that you can get away from the crowds and noise.
