About this property

Rent Three Homes-Spectacular views of ocean from main house. Sleeps 16.

Villa de Vistas is a luxurious ecological paradise just a five minute walk from the beach and a thirty minute walk from the center of San Pancho. The Villa has three separate and complete houses that can be rented together or individually. We have LA CASA QUE CANTA (VRBO 63732) which sleeps 8, and CASITA CELESTIAL (VRBO244977) and EL NIDO DE LA TORTUGA (VRBO 97749) each sleeping 4. If you want to rent one or two of our homes go to the individual vrbo sites. Stay on this site to rent all three.

Villa de Vistas is located on property overlooking the Pacific Ocean. All three houses are artistically designed and beautifully furnished with vibrant Mexican fabrics, tiles, and museum quality arts and crafts. The water is filtered and is safe to drink.

We have also recently made some upgrades to the property. This includes adding a generator, in case of power outages. We now have 2 different wifi services (fiber and Starlink satellite) and a switch that will toggle between them if 1 goes down. We also have an expansive mesh wifi network ensures the entire property with fast wifi. You are guaranteed to have power and internet connectivity.

On the top of the hill, at street level is the main floor of the Big House, with the spacious living and dining rooms, kitchen (laundry and pantry), family room and guest bath. All of these rooms are interconnected in one great open space. They have fabulous views of the jungle, beach and ocean. The kitchen and family room are air-conditioned.

San Pancho Melissa Roberts
We stayed at the Robert’s San Pancho home with friends and two younger children. The home was spacious, well kept and had stunning ocean and sunset views. Marie-Eve, the concierge was delightful to work with and quite helpful. We arranged a chef for several nights and took advantage of the team the Robert’s have put together in San Pancho. Cleaning folks came every other day and were thorough and quite pleasant. I recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the San Pancho area.

Amazing!
The house is even better than the pictures. The most jaw-dropping, unique house I think any of us will ever stay in (we told the children they've peaked :)) We were worried about the weather - it was rainy season and the forecast was for all rain and thunderstorms but the weather was gorgeous. There were some little hiccups with our stay which were not really problems at all - and Iris always resolved them very quickly.

Lots of positives, a few negatives
An extended family of 8 adults and 4 preteens/teens, we spent 12 days at Villa de Vistas in July. While we experienced some issues that were more than "glitches", overall we enjoyed our time in this exceptional property. There were plenty of common areas where everyone could get together, yet each family had their own private space. The artwork and attention to detail are very impressive, everything was well-stocked and clean and the Internet service was terrific. It was quite hot and humid and there were a lot of mosquitos (day and night), but we walked to San Pancho almost every day, sometimes electing to take a cab back to the house. You could always rent a car or a golf cart. It is a very short walk to the clean, uncrowded beach. Unfortunately, during our stay we experiened some things that were a bit more than "glitches". Most of the problems stemmed from the fact that we were there in the summer when daily thunderstorms are the norm and loss of power is common. According to the locals the outages generally last just a few hours, but we had several that lasted quite a long time - almost a full 24 hours in one case and almost that long in another. When the power goes out there is, of course, no refrigeration, AC or fans, but there is also no running water as the pump from the cistern cannot operate. There is, however, plenty of bottled drinking water. Daniel, the gardener and overall problem solver, and Neomy and Josefina, the housekeepers, were very helpful in trying to minimize the impact of our not having electricity or running water, but some help from the house manager would have been appreciated. We had to contact her to ask if there were flashlights (the phone batteries didn't last long) and to get ice for the refrigerators and buckets to carry water from the pool to flush the toilelts. I understand that Bill and Melissa are looking into the possibility of getting a generator and that would be quite nice to have in situations such as we experienced. I want to stress that Bill and Melissa are wonderful owners and did all they could to help, keeping in close contact with us from their home in the States and offerring ways we could get showers and charge our devices. They also kindly offerred us a generous refund. While it was not the vacation we had envisioned, overall we had a good time staying in a special home with spectacular views that is close to both the town and the beach. I would love to return one day, just not in the summer.

Remote San Pancho and Beautiful Villa de Vistas.
The property was an excellent choice for our family of 14, ranging from 7 years to 75 years old. The walk to the beach was easy and the pool on property perfect size and sparkling clean. The Chef we hired was amazing and knew his way around the villa kitchen making everyone comfortable. The Wifii worked well as did the one tv in great room for night time sports. I would recommend it to families as everyone had room to spread out and have their own space. The art work in the house was so unique and beautiful. Villa de Vistas was described well by the owners and we would return in the future if possible.

About the host

A note from Melissa and Bill Roberts:

We have lived most of our adult life in Middletown, Connecticut, where Melissa was a school social worker and Bill was a clergyman for the first half of his career and a consultant for the second half. In 1979 we built a home on Cape Cod for our family -- we have three sons.

The Cape House was very important to our family, but as the boys grew up, moved away and had children of their own, we decided to sell that house and build a three-home complex in San Pancho to accommodate our expanded family as well as friends and other guests.

Why they chose this property

In 2006 two of our sons went on a surfing-scouting trip to the west coast of Mexico, found their way to San Pancho, and immediately fell in love with the town and the beach. A month later we rearranged some travel plans and went to check it out for ourselves. Well, we also loved the place.

We felt welcomed to the town. The Americans and Canadians we met seemed to respect the culture and value their relationships with the residents whose families, in some cases, had lived in San Pancho for over a hundred years. It seemed that this would be an ideal place to build a home for generations of our family.

We purchased this particular property with the hope, just the hope, that we might have a pretty good view of the ocean. As the construction progressed it became clearer and clearer that we would have not only 'a pretty good view,' but SPECTACULAR VIEWS of the ocean, the beach, the town (San Pancho), Sayulita in the distance, and, equally fantastic views of the jungle....from many different locations in LA CASA. Although we originally called our home La Casa que Canta, because it seemed to sing with the profundo of the ocean surf, the rustling of the palm leaves, and the chirping of the birds, we have renamed it the VILLA DE VISTAS -- the Villa of Views.

As you will see the property presented some challenges since it goes sharply downhill, but Melissa (with partial assistance from three different architects) was able to change those challenges into opportunities, which allows us to have three separate homes in very close proximity to one another. Yet each affords privacy.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefit of renting the entire villa is that you have a lot of space in a secluded, secure, quiet setting.....with comfortably large areas, places for intimate conversations with just a few people and places suitable just to rest and relax by yourself.

The pool, which has become the primary gathering place, is designed so children of all ages -- from infants to grandparents -- can feel safe as they play together. Infants can sit in a few inches of water and splash away. Toddlers play on the in-pool benches. Older kids can jump in the pool from the ledge if they are feeling brave. Adults can feel assured that their children are safe. The pool temperature is adjustable to be comfortable year round.
