Luxury 6th Floor Studio Romantic Zone Condo in La Palapa on Los Muertos Beach
New photos posted Fall 2023 - 8th Floor Pool and Deck renovated Summer 2023 - Unit 605
This beautiful beachfront condo was completely renovated for the 2018 season! It is located in La Palapa condominiums on the beach in one of the Zona Romantica's most iconic buildings. It has guaranteed unobstructed south facing views of Banderas Bay! Pool deck on 8 renovated summer 2023.
Please also see our other VRBO listing # 997616 and its Reviews!
All new amenities including air conditioning and ceiling fans in the sleeping area and main room to guarantee your comfort. You can watch the sunsets and the whales (in season) from your sixth floor, large, beachfront balcony that comfortably seats four. The panorama of the beach, ocean, and mountains are all in your view with plenty of tropical breezes. It has absolutely one of the best ocean views in town.
The building has a beautiful rooftop pool and gazebo on the 8th floor and the iconic La Palapa Restaurant on the beach level. Within two blocks of this perfect location are everything you need for your vacation: restaurants, bars, ATMs, currency exchange, rental cars, taxi stands, spas, shops, coffee shops, farmacias, internet, juice bars, grocery stores, and more. No car is needed as you can walk to virtually everything and the taxi stand is about 50 feet from the door. There is maid service six days per week (excluding Sundays and Mexican Holidays) and the front desk is manned 24/7 for your safety and convenience.
The condo has all the extras and was completely renovated, with an eye for detail, including local fabrics, new rugs, original art, Bose SoundLink bluetooth sound system, beach towels for your use, soap, hair dryer, cable Smart TV flat screen with Netflix and english language stations and complimentary high speed Wi-Fi internet. Everything is new: Sheets, towels, living and bedroom furniture.
There is a large airy living area with a dining bar, sitting area with sofa and chair, and a dresser for your convenience, and a floor to ceiling window wall with the awesome view of the beach and Banderas Bay. The balcony has a table that seats four - the perfect place to enjoy the PVR sunset. The sleeping area adjacent to the living area has a brand new king size bed with a floor to ceiling curtain to insure your privacy. But please note - this is a studio condo, the sleeping area is adjacent but is not a separate room from the living area. But - we've taken great care to make it as comfortable as possible for a romantic holiday!
The bathroom has been gutted and completely renovated with marble and travertine finishes. There is a purified water system for drinking water in the kitchen so there is no need for bottled water. The kitchen has new appliances but we've taken care to leave enough local touches so you know your on a Mexican vacation. We also have a notebook for you to leave with your own recommendations for the future. To maintain this high quality, pets and children under 15 are not allowed, and smoking is only allowed on the balcony. A maximum of two people can rent the unit- - no exceptions.
We also own the two bedroom unit down the hall at 602 - VRBO listing 997616. You can see we used the same care to renovate 605 and we can bundle the two properties (based on availability) if you need larger accommodations.
Come treat yourself to luxury on the beach, and you'll join our many friends and travelers who rent with us year after year.

About the host
Hosted by Eric Newcomb
Mark and I are from Dallas TX and looked for a vacation home not far away. Puerto Vallarta is a two hour flight from DFW or 3 hour trip on Southwest with a stop in Houston. We absolutely love Puerto Vallarta. The people are so friendly (and happy) and not speaking Spanish is not a problem. The locals love having tourists there and it is safe and secure. We've traveled the world but Puerto Vallarta is now one of our favorite places!
We purchased #602 in 2015. It is a two bedroom (VRBO 997616) and jumped at the opportunity to purchase the this studio down the hall when it came on the market.
We know you will love staying here as much as we do!

Why they chose this property
La Palapa is right on the beach and guaranteed to never have an unobstructed view. The staff is awesome and already at your service. The location can't be beat - all of PVR is outside your doorstep. There are only 7 units per floor surrounding and open air atrium. It's a quiet and relaxing destination for your vacation.
What makes this property unique
Newly and completed renovated - everything down to the silverware is new! Sheets - towels - furniture - - all first rate. Eric works in the hospitality industry and seems to have thought of everything. There's even a guest information book with all you need to know for your visit. The front staff is manned 24/7 and access to the building is closely monitored.
We get high marks from our guests for the attention to detail. There are power strips that include USB outlets on each nights stand. There's a lighted makeup mirror and the lighting has been thoughtfully laid out in each room.
You will have absolutely no regrets deciding to stay with us!
