This was the perfect location for us. Easy walk to beachfront boardwalk and restaurants. Also easy acess to other city shops and restaurants. The pool area was superb a great view and not too many taller buildings blocking view. Lush mature gardens and fun pathways. Condo was exactly as pictured and description. It has the fun Mexican Riviera feel which is what we wanted. Would definitely put on the stay again list.
Selva Romantica is a beautiful, relaxing property and Casa Tortuga is an aesthetically pleasing unit. Great location -- close to the ocean, great restaurants, yoga studios, and fabulous music. Check-in was very smooth and well detailed. Communications with property manager and booking manager were prompt and consistently helpful and accommodating. We will definitely return.
We have vacationed in PV several times and try someplace different each time. But can honestly say this is the first place that we have stayed where we absolutely would attempt to rent again. Great location - close to everything but still quiet. Nice, clean unit. And pool was awesome.
Great location to everything yet private and relaxing. Met many wonderful people staying on property. Woukd definitely stay again! Property Mgmt were great and very responsive .
Exactly what we were looking for, clean , great location beautiful pool can’t wait to come again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Loved the place ! Concierge was super helpful
Perfect location right above the romantic zone close to shopping, restaurants and the beach! Immaculate property and condos. Cold AC and a full gym too. Thanks for having us- will return
Overall great apartment, beautiful pool, and wonderful location. The shower could have been a little cleaner, had low water pressure, and the toilet kept running. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay!

Great experience. Check in and out was on time and easy. Clean, quiet condo conveniently located near the pool. Excellent property. We have stayed several times at Selva Romántica.
What a vibrant place Selva Romantica is. We loved this place, we loved our time in PV. I would absolutely love to come back! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Great little studio. Has everything you need. Even a great bottle of wine and chocolates for arrival. The pool is heated and very nice. Old Mexico charm.
We loved the studio we stayed in and the location was great. It was beautiful and clean and the host had a sweet birthday message upon our arrival to
Make our stay memorable. Wifi was slow and the pool was under construction were the only drawbacks as we would have liked to have used the pool that looked great in the photos. However all in all a wonderful stay. Would totally go back a d stay again!
We absolutely loved this condo. It is clean and so close to a beautiful pool. The property is very well maintained and quiet. It is only a block or so from the busy streets of the Zona Romantica but once you enter the property, it is quiet and serene.
It is also very well situated to enjoy the great restaurants and bars that are plentiful in this area.
We would definitely stay here again!
My Husband and I stayed a short 3 days but it was wonderful. The location is close to the beach, shops and restaurants. Perched on the hillside the views are second to none. At night we sat in the pool area and watched fireworks. Casa Tortuga was stunning with its stained-glass windows and architecture. Sonia was amazing to work with and made our stay stress free. Would definitely stay here again!
My husband and I spent 2 weeks at this beautiful property. I don't think we've ever stayed in such a comfortable well equipped vacation home--ever! The condo was beautifully decorated and outfitted with everything you would need to spend time away from your own home. We arrived to wine and chocolates and were met by Sonia, the concierge, who was responsive and took care of any questions or potential issues. We would definitely return to this property again and let any friends and family know who might want to travel here.
The property was great..... there should be some explanation of the walk to and from the unit regarding incline and numerous steps. Why did VRBO add another $100 dollars to and already booked property.
We are familiar with Selva Romantica but not this particular condo and it did not disappoint. The condo was very clean and is just a few steps away from the pool (on the same level). The balcony is 2nd story with a pleasant end of street view which is very quiet. We were contacted early on by our contact Sonia who coordinated to meet us as we arrived via taxi. Everything worked as expected with full supplies. When we travel to PV, we'll certainly check if this property is available and would stay again.
Wonderful condo with traditional charming Mexican architecture, clean and private. Quiet complex with beautiful landscaping and a great pool, yet in the middle of downtown, just a short walk to everything. Prompt service (we had low battery on the door lock and it was replaced within an hour). We enjoyed our visit and will come again.
