About this property
Spectacular View! Oceanfront Condo at the Grand Venetian
Plan your Mexico vacation in this spacious 3 bedroom, 3 full bath beachfront property in the Grand Venetian condominium with newly renovated kitchen (completed Sept. 2024). Reside in the center of the hotel zone area right by the open air La Isla Shopping Village, and half way between the airport and Malecon / downtown. This unit features comfortable yet high style design with all the modern conveniences. This 11th floor balcony captures an incredible ocean view, and seen to your left is the curve of the Bay of Banderas which provides a spectacular twinkling 'city lights' view at night.
Fireworks shot from the Pirate ship and hotels can be seen from the balcony several nights most weeks. A second balcony shared by the two rear bedrooms provides an impressive view of the Sierra Madre mountains and city.
Guests say the photos do not do the unit justice! The apartment is appointed with cable smart TVs in all 3 bedrooms plus a 50” flatscreen in the living room and two bedrooms, and a flatscreen smart TV in the 3rd bedroom. Both original artwork and high quality prints decorate the walls. All three walk-in showers are deep and roomy, and two of the three bathrooms feature twin sinks. The kitchen is amply appointed with quality cookware and probably nearly every tool or amenity you have at home.
The dining room buffet is stocked with games for your use. The washer and dryer are in the unit and only for your use. Ample towels, beach towels, and linens are supplied. The apartment including balconies measures over 2,000 square feet. Each room has vaulted ceilings with ceiling fans. Other high-end features include halogen lighting, kitchen and bath granite countertops, extra pillows, local and imported furnishings, stylish bed coverings and linens and more.
Maid service during your stay is available for a nominal charge. One parking space is allotted for those who have a car. There is easy access to both taxis and buses in front of the building plus Uber will come up to the lobby, and our security personnel will summon a taxi right up to the lobby for you. My local property management service is only a phone call away in the event you have any needs at all.
The Grand Venetian has excellent features. You proceed up a beautiful driveway lined with planted urns from the main street up to the condo tower at the ocean. A waterfall entry greets you at the tower's lobby entrance. You enter the building into the open air, high tropical style lobby. Enjoy the property's sprawling river-like infinity pools with hot tubs as well as the condo tower's own pool, all oceanfront. There is an excellent sit down pool-side restaurant and bar, and pool side waiter service with ample menu.
You can use the Condo's game room with card and pool table, a 12 seat movie room, fitness center, and a spa that offers massages, facials and similar luxury services. All of the above are conveniently located in my tower.
The Grand Venetian neighbors the La Isla outdoor shopping plaza that includes a Starbucks, several restaurants, and ice cream and a frozen yogurt store, a dine-in deluxe movie theatre with movie choices in both English and Spanish, and many retail stores. The Peninsula Plaza neighbors our three towers to our right and has two banks which is great for making safe withdrawals and changing the larger bills to smaller denominations. On our left side is the Sunscape resort.
Within a 5 minute taxi ride or short walk are several grocery stores, a Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, the Galleria (high end) mall with many stores including the Liverpool Department store, restaurants, a large cinema including movies in English, and activities.
Credit card or bank transfers accepted via VRBO or PayPal.
Why Puerto Vallarta, Mexico? No other destination has the charm of the 'boardwalk' Malecon area, and all the activities of a friendly, happening city yet the relaxed and peaceful nature of a beach resort. There are ample restaurants at every price point and many international cuisines. Enjoy the city or the marina area, or just stay home and take advantage of the amazing property, balconies and apartment.
Shop for beautiful items including pewter, ceramic, and silver. Enjoy the many tour companies providing great venues with excellent customer service and attention to detail. Most visitors to this city become enchanted regulars. It's just not your ordinary location or vacation!

It was a pleasure having you and your family and I’m so glad you loved the condo and property! Come again.
We loved everything about our stay. The condo exceeded our expectations. It is spotless and conveniently located. It also has everything you need for your cooking. The views from the balcony are breathtaking. The property is well-maintained, with three large pools and two jacuzzis. I will for sure be returning to Lee’s place. Lee is very responsive and made sure everything was perfect during our stay.

It was great having you and please do come again! So glad the family (and friends) loved the condo and grounds. And yes, I have to agree, our huge pools are the best!
Lee was great to deal with. The problems we encountered were with the building itself and Lee was very responsive and helpful to us.Great view and great location. We were fishing most of the time so we didn’t get to enjoy the amenities of the facility.

It is rare to run into any problems with our building but every now then a repair is unavoidable. Fortunately, it was brief and affected a very small amount of time. Please do come again!
four of us enjoyed PV, the pool, the Day of the Dead and especially this fabulous condo for games and relaxing. Beautifully decorated - newly remodeled kitchen and a sweet neighbor. would love to stay again and will recommend it to anyone thinking about PV

Wonderful condo with great views, even seen whales from the balcony, and close to many restaurants. Property manager/owner was quick to respond to any query and had provided complete and easy to understand information on everything in the facility including how to get through the busy airport.

Thank you, and you were wonderful to work with as well! Very happy to have you back again!
Hubby and I love the grand Venetian! We have stayed there many times in different condos, and this one was by far the most comfortable and the best equipped. We loved the hot tub and the condo was very spacious for four people. The owner was a wealth of information and recommended several fabulous restaurants, we were not familiar with. We would go back there anytime!

Thank you for your comments and I’m so glad you liked my condo!
We decided to do a trip to Puerto Vallarta over Easter weekend. The condo was fully stocked. There was nothing we needed that it didn’t have. The furnishings are beautiful and the beds super comfortable. The view was spectacular. Lee was very responsive to all of my questions and helpful with ways to get around and good grocery stores and restaurants. We can’t wait to come back!!

It was great having you, and I am very happy to help my guests with restaurant, grocery or activity recommendations! So glad you liked the condo and beds!
We were so fortunate to have the opportunity to vacation at Lee's gorgeous condo. The view from the 11th floor balcony is stunning...whales, dolphins, pelicans. The grounds are impeccably maintained, as well as the beautiful pools. The building is very safe and secure..taxis readily available. Great restaurants and groceries close by. Lee is very attentive and helpful with making our stay memorable. Definitely would recommend this vacation rental.

Thank you, Peter, so glad you chose my condo and thanks for being so wonderful to work with! I hope you will return!
We stayed at Lee’s condo for a family trip and this condo was perfect for 3 couples. It is clean, well-appointed and has a fantastic view of the pool and ocean. The Grand Venetian building is a perfect spot.
Lee and his property manager were very responsive and Lee is an amazing host and communicator.
The pictures do not do justice to this amazing g property which I highly recommend.
Wonderful property, beautiful views, and wonderful communication. Music next door was loud most nights, that was a bit hard. In saying this, overall we had a great time!

Thank you for choosing my condo and for your review! The prior week was Easter, so it was very festive over there. Easter is a huge vacation time for Mexican nationals. But the following week and since then they have been very quiet at night except early evening, there were three days where there were outdoor weddings with live music. So please come again, and I know you’ll like it!
This condo is beautifully decorated, well appointed with towels, sheets and extras like toilet paper and hand soap (which some rentals don’t supply) and very clean. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. The washer, drier and wifi all worked well. The owner, Lee, replies promptly to any queries and was a delight to rent from. Would highly recommend this condo.

It was a pleasure having you and your family, and yes, I do try to make sure that all the comforts of home are provided and kept up! Please do come again.
We enjoyed every minute of our stay. From check in to check out, everything was great. I had one minor issue with the safe, (user error) but Lee was incredibly responsive and had the issue fixed in no time. The location of the condo is right in the heart of everything. It was incredibly easy to get a taxi or Uber to pick us up when we were feeling like exploring. I would definitely recommend staying in this condo to anyone wanting a chill stay in Puerto Vallarta. I would definitely stay again.

Thank you Andrew, it was wonderful having you and I sure hope you and your family do come again!
What a amazing condo, very clean, modern and just as described. The newly renovated kitchen was beautiful.The waterfront view from the large balcony was amazing.
The property is well maintained with very friendly staff. We spent a lot of time in the pools with the view of the beach. The location was great, close to a few supermarkets and restaurants. Highly recommend Porfirio´s Vallarta which is a quick 10 min walk away.
The owner Lee, by far one the best VRBO host I have ever dealt with. From booking the reservation to check out it was smooth and easy process with great communication.
Hope to return again soon.

About the host
Hosted by Lee Colker
I fell in love with Puerto Vallarta upon my first visit in 2002. I returned in 2003 for several weeks and again in 2005 for several weeks. To this day, the city feels like 'home' with its friendly people, both locals and American and Canadian tourists and owners. The charm of the city, Malecon and Old Town are uniquely its own. You can find great food at every price point, great art, lots of activities, or just hang out on property and enjoy the pools, balconies and views.
Why they chose this property
One day I would like to be a 'snow bird' and spend my winters here. I could also see being a 6 or 9 month resident as well. I chose this property for the location on the hotel zone which gives you a very deep sand beach and spacious grounds, and the landscaping here with its flowering bushes, palm trees and manicured grass which most hotel zone condos do not have. I love our location because we're so close to the city, yet removed enough to have the spacious grounds and resort feel. Our 'river-like' pools can't be beat and its a beautiful setting for a vacation or to reside.
What makes this property unique
A good friend of mine is professional interior designer and helped to choose the wall colors, fabrics, art and furnishings. We went for a more stylish and upscale look that is still comfortable and with a down to earth feel. We wanted it to be more of a special experience and more like a high end hotel than of a typical beachside apartment. The result is a condo where you feel comfortable to put your feet up, yet you enjoy the look, feel and art around you. Modern amenities also make it special with TVs in every room, a Bose bluetooth wireless speaker to connect to your personal devices and music, internet phone for free calling to the US and Canada, and a kitchen that's probably nearly as well stocked as yours at home.
