Weâve been proud owners of five properties in Punta Mita over the past 15 years and currently own two properties including Casa Alegre, our beautiful four-bedroom villa, and our Four Seasons Residence Club condos (VRBO Listing #393019).
Iâm recently retired, and thanks to Vrbo, Iâve become something of a part-time vacation rental host, unexpected, but deeply rewarding. We also share our home in Kiawah Island, South Carolina when weâre not there ourselves. Luckily, weâre supported by exceptional local property managers in each location, ensuring every guest is cared for with the same attention weâd expect for our own family.
Speaking of family, our three daughters (pictured above) have grown up loving Punta Mita. Years ago, we used to vacation in Mauiâbut once we discovered Punta Mita, we never looked back. For us, itâs friendlier, more welcoming, more affordable, and more beautiful than Hawaii. And living near Chicago, we appreciate the convenience of a direct four-hour flight that keeps us in the same time zone, no red-eyes required.
Barb and I typically spend around ten weeks a year here, while our daughters make it down for holidays, especially Thanksgiving. Weâve even perfected the art of making a full Thanksgiving feast in Mexico, cranberries and all!
Punta Mita is truly our happy place. Iâm an avid golfer, tennis player and margarita enthusiast and thereâs plenty of each to keep me smiling. Weâve built lifelong friendships with fellow homeowners here and look forward to reconnecting every winter.
If we had to choose just one place in the world to return to again and again, it would be Casa Alegre in Punta Mita.
