Glad that you enjoyed your stay - and I hope to have you back again!
Apartment was in a great location, walking distance to everything while not being in too noisy an area. Extremely clean, as someone who was on a multi-week trip the laundry machine was super helpful. Balcony and rooftop pool provide great views and a relaxing atmosphere.

We're so happy you enjoyed your stay! Glad the washer/dryer was useful! Please consider us again on your plans to return to Vallarta.
There’s nothing negative to say about this rental or its location. It includes all the essentials one would expect and is within walking distance of various activities and restaurants.

Im so glad you enjoyed your time at the condo. I hope you'll consider returning should you find yourself back in Vallarta.
The unit was clean, had plenty to feel comfy in, we loved the rooftop area and the location was great. It was close enough to the beach and town, but not too close to where we could hear too much commotion. We would definitely stay again.
Such a nice place to stay. Modern and clean. Beautiful view of the ocean. Hosts were responsive and helpful! I felt comfortable and safe there. Also very quiet but near everything.

Hi Tod and Mandy,
Thanks for your stay! We hope you come back again soon! We have some sporadic availability now through December, some days here and there through March 2018 and then some openings again. If you want to return same time every year I would recommend booking 2018 dates sooner as opposed to later so you have priority pick of the dates. Thanks again for your reservation, John
I really enjoyed my stay here! It’s on a quiet street away from the noise but still close to all of the restaurants and bars! Easy to walk everywhere. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The balcony has great views at night. Charlotte was very responsive when I had any questions. I will definitely stay here again!

Thank you for your 5 star review - we're delighted that you enjoyed the condo and location! You were a very responsive guest and made it easy for us as well. We'd love to host you again if you find yourself back in PV!
My partner and I enjoyed staying here and I would recommend for one or two people. The hosts were very quick to reply to our questions and were very helpful. We loved the pool at siesta time and would certainly recommend to friends and family.

Your own hideaway in paradise
Located at the end of what we call a cul-de-sac, you can revel in the silence of no car traffic. This condo is located walking distance to some of the best restaurants and bars PV has to offer. My stay was quite enjoyable as the condo contains all you could want on vacation. I loved having my morning coffee on the patio and taking in the ocean view.

Hidden gem in the Romantic Zone
This is a great condo located on a quiet street in the heart of the Romantic Zone. Within a block, there are many restaurants, bars and shops, and the beach is two blocks away. The unit itself is small, but has everything needed for a single person or couple. It is clean, modern and well-maintained.

Thanks! For your stay and great review. The unit is about 500 square feet, but really well designed to maximize space and the balcony really adds to the living space. Pease come back soon! We have some availability late summer and early fall, we're pretty booked up for winter 2018 already.
Thanks again for your stay,
John
Easy VRBO experience. Exceptionally well furnished kitchen. Grout throughout apartment and especially in bathroom is in need deep cleaning. Overall: Thumbs up !

We have stayed at a few other places in the Romantic Zone but this particular ambience was the best. We were able to really relax and rebuild. No stress in communication and we were able to navigate the hills. People were friendly and so kind. Loved our little vacation! Thanks so much.

About the host
Hosted by John Guptill
My wife, Charlotte, and I are from Portland, Maine. I first discovered Puerto Vallarta by accident at age 18 while on vacation in Mexico City when we decided to take an overnight bus trip adventure to the coast. Upon landing in Puerto Vallarta I instantly fell in love with it. Later I was fortunate enough to be able to return with my wife. We booked a condo in Zona Romantica, very near to Casa Carlota , and never looked back. Year after year we returned, addicted to the beauty and amenities of PV. Finally in 2013 we decided to buy our first Mexican Condo. We eventually discovered a great pre-construction opportunity at Bella Loma, we finalized our first condo, Casa Tesoro Escondido in 2015. In 2016 we came across an great opportunity to purchase Casa Carlota right next door and with one year of rentals under our belt, we went for it again! We oversaw construction of Casa Carlota and meticulously applied years of personal experience renting in the area, our experience with our first PV condo and previous professional experience in rentals, construction and real estate in Maine to create a wonderful home and superior rental experience. We currently visit our homes in paradise two to three times a year. We hope you will enjoy Casa Carlota as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
Casa Carlota is centrally located to the beach, restaurants, and nightlife that Puerto Vallarta is famous for, yet all the while tucked away at the terminus of a very quiet and peaceful dead end, residential street. As we purchased pre-constructions we were able to design the finishes and furnishings to the highest quality.
What makes this property unique
Bella Loma is a smaller condo association with only 17 units. This allows for the amenities of a condo, with a bit more privacy. Typically there will only be one or two other guests on the pool deck. It has a friendly and family run feel. Built in 2015 it has modern amenities and feel but at a much greater value than other new condo developments in the area. The location is optimal, tucked away at the terminus of a dead end only 2.5 blocks to one of Vallarta's most popular beaches, Los Muertos, only one block to Olas Altas shopping and European styled cafes and bars and only minutes to restaurant row on Baslio Badillo and the boardwalk and Downtown.
