Acerca del anfitrión
Anfitrión: Mark Roberts
We’re Mark and John, best friends who made the leap from the San Francisco Bay Area to Puerto Vallarta in 2018. We were both searching for a place with sunshine, great food, vibrant culture, and a welcoming community—and we found it all here. What started as an adventure quickly turned into home.
The Villa found us by accident—literally. One day, while walking a friend’s dog, we spotted a “For Sale” sign and instantly saw the potential. That unexpected moment planted the seed of a dream: to build a life in Mexico and create something meaningful we could share with others.
With a shared love of design, hospitality, and a good challenge, we poured our hearts into transforming the Villa into Villa Amistad—a warm, inviting space that reflects both Mexican charm and modern comfort. Our goal was simple: to offer travelers the kind of stay we always looked for—authentic, beautiful, well-run, and unforgettable.
When we're not hosting, you’ll find us out exploring—whether on an urban walk through colorful neighborhoods, or hiking lush jungle trails. One of our favorite spots is the Botanical Gardens, a must-visit for its stunning plants, scenic hikes, and delicious on-site restaurant. We’re also always on the lookout for new restaurants and never say no to a good glass of wine—or a jaw-dropping sunset (and yes, the nightly fireworks really do feel magical every time).
We look forward to welcoming you to our little slice of paradise. Whether it’s your first time in Puerto Vallarta or your tenth, we’re here to help make your stay truly memorable.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad
Why El Cerro/Centro? Why Villa Amistad?
I discovered this neighborhood by chance while walking a friend’s dog. Turning a corner, I saw a for sale sign on a hillside villa facing the ocean. The street had a distinct Mexican charm—colorful, breezy, and full of character. I knew immediately it was something special.
The El Cerro/Centro area is one of Puerto Vallarta’s oldest neighborhoods, rich with local culture, history, and original Vallartan architecture. Holiday processions still pass through, and many families have lived here for generations. The area is now a vibrant mix of locals, expats, snowbirds, and travelers. It’s within walking distance to the Romantic Zone, Los Muertos Beach, restaurants, art galleries, and nightlife—yet far enough away to offer a quiet escape from the city’s hustle.
The Creation of Villa Amistad
When I purchased the villa in 2019, it was a 4-story building in serious disrepair. Over 18 months, we completely renovated it—opening walls to capture ocean views, reinforcing ceilings, adding windows for airflow and light, and installing soundproofing, AC, updated plumbing and electrical, and a 5-stage water filtration system for safe drinking water.
We removed the fourth floor but added two large balconies and a heated saltwater pool, creating a comfortable blend of traditional Mexican design and modern living. Eventually, we hope to add another apartment or a rooftop terrace.
The villa became Villa Amistad—“Villa of Friendship.” Its unique, modular layout allows guests to rent individual apartments or the entire villa. Each apartment is named after a dear friend:
Curiel’s Retreat
Miguel’s Mirador
Jonathan’s Lugar
Ivan’s Bella Vista
Luis’s Escondite (Office)
Zeferino’s Palacio (Private Apartment)
Villa Amistad is more than a place to stay—it’s a heartfelt project built on connection, culture, and the spirit of friendship.
