The property was in a wonderful location! The location made it easy to do day trips to several different towns in the area with our rental car and come back to a quiet area at the end of the day. Our host was very responsive to our questions and requests and left a lovely welcoming package. The expansive patio area was a great place to relax and dine - lots of options for both sun and shade. The cleaning service provided was excellent.

I received you with all the percks, coffee, water, beer, snacks as a GIFT to y and waited for your arrival so i explained how the house works and gave you a free late check out, and a free house cleaning you didnt want but i offered. I always responded any question or doubts nd tried my best to make you feel at home. Since you made your reservation in the house rules explained and it says here in vrbo platform, that after a certain quota, 200 kwts per stay, if you go over that you have a fee to pay. When i talked to you i told you again, i have it in chat, and reported it to vrbo because i always say it clear, and we do that because we are trying to be a green space and conscious about electric consumption. You're review doesnt come at all with a surprise, i noticed that when i told you to please take a picture of your electric spent. And maybe you noticed how much you spent in Air conditioning.... maybe you left it on all day... all night. And i told you when this came up, but i left it v
up to you, and you didnt care at all. but know i see you are not conscious at all. And about the iguana.... Punta Esmeralda is a Iguana reservoire.... maybe they come in units sometimes, but nobody kills or hurts them. They are inoffensive HARMLESS and its a small beautiful green iguana and maybe you dont understand but we RESPECT their lives, so yes maybe i could help you with the visit of a iguana.....that didnt hurt you at all and its their right to be around spaces. We protect them.
Imagine lounging in your own private pool while gazing out over the ocean with majestic mountains overhead. This fantasy is a reality at Punta Esmeralda. This beautiful and well-appointed home has plenty of space and all the amenities you need for a great vacation. If there is anything you need, the attentive host will be happy to provide it - advice, assistance, or anything. On top of that, you'll have access to *8* additional pools, a private beach, and a very fine restaurant. You could have an incredible vacation without ever leaving the property.The host recommends renting a car to get the best enjoyment out of this rental, which would certainly be helpful and you would enjoy the benefit of the two car garage. That being said, no one in our party had the intestinal fortitude to handle driving in a foreign country, so we relied on Uber, which although a little pricey worked well. La Cruz de Huanacaxtle and Bucerias are both short and affordable rides from Punta Esmeralda. One thing we would have liked to have known in advance about the booking is that it only includes 200 kwh of electricity, with a nominal fee for each kwh afterwards. If your party is small or your booking isn't long it probably won't be an issue, but with a party of 9 for 10 days we had to be somewhat judicious with power use - we made it work though.Overall, this rental is a rare gem and a high recommend.

Hello Mr. Parr!!,
It was a pleasure hearing from you, and I’m very happy to know you enjoyed your stay at Villa Durazno in Punta Esmeralda. I’m especially glad you were able to enjoy the amenities both in the house and throughout the condominium, because the idea is to experience the feeling of living in a resort while still being at home. That is exactly what I hope every guest experiences.
You were truly five-star guests, wonderful to host, and I would gladly recommend you to any host anywhere. Thank you for taking such good care of the home and following the house rules. You are always welcome back — this is truly your home whenever you wish to return.
Just to clarify for peace of mind for both of us and for anyone reading the reviews, the electricity policy is clearly stated in the VRBO House Rules. The stay includes up to 200 kilowatts, which is the normal monthly consumption for a home in the area without constant AC use. Any additional usage is charged only at the actual CFE cost (about 6 pesos per kilowatt), with no markup. This also helps promote responsible energy use since electricity in Bahía de Banderas is among the most expensive in the region.
Thank you again for being such wonderful guests. I truly hope to welcome you back soon.
Warm regards,
Marifer
