Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Always a seeker of peoples and places, Angeline Kyba found in Mexico a people who embraced her, a place to paint and a home.

Why the Owner Chose Downtown (Viejo Vallarta)

Angeline built this casa, poco a poco, little by little until it became big.

The Unique Benefits of this House

The neighborhood is wonderful, breezy, quiet except at times of major fiestas,the sound of the river and the jungle behind and alongside make it a tranquil spot in the center of a bustling town. It still feels like romantic old Mexico on the street and I love the walk home at night with the moon over the mountains lighting the way.
