My partner and I stayed at this property from Christmas to New Year’s Day. The view is lovely with lush vegetation around the deck. Walking right out to the pool is a huge plus - although it’s quite cold it was extremely refreshing for a wake up swim in the morning or to cool down after a walk.
As noted in the property description, this is up the hill. The walk is steep, but I actually loved that as it was great exercise and made me feel less guilty about all the delicious food and drinks we were having.
This is *actual* Mexico, so there is a broad spectrum of economic demographics represented. You have very high end homes mixed with some poverty, which is to be expected. At no point did we feel unsafe.
The neighbours in the building could not be nicer. They are quick to volunteer tips and tricks to make the most of your stay. All lovely people and we are so happy we met them. The building manager and maintenance man are also very friendly and helpful.
One of the best taco places in PV (Pepe’s) is a few blocks down the hill, and the beach is a 7 minute walk straight down. It’s very easy to navigate the area if you walk straight down to the main drag. It’s not far to the Malecon, and if you like to walk (which we do) you can venture through to Centro and the Romantic Zone for phenomenal shopping, restaurants, and nightlife.
It is very quiet and relaxing at the condo, as it’s removed from traffic and nightlife that can disturb you in some of the properties closer to the beach.
We prefer the more southern neighbourhoods, like 5th of Diciembre, Centro, and Romantic Zone- which are all easy to reach with Uber, or walk down to the main drag and immediately get a taxi.
The Property Manager, Layce, is smart and professional- as well as bilingual. Checking in was a breeze, and we knew she was always easy to reach if anything was ever needed.
The condo owner is attentive as well, and went out of her way to ensure we were happy and had a positive experience.
We very much enjoyed our stay here, and my butt looks great from the incline walk. Wins all around!
