Great vacation

This was the perfect property for a girls trip with our daughters. The condo was great, the pool was amazing, the food at the snackbar was delicious and the ocean was warm and calm. A bonus was being able to hear the crashing waves from the bedroom.

Great location

Here's a polished version of your review: "We had a fantastic time at this oceanfront condo. If you’re looking to escape the bustling beachfront vendors in Puerto Vallarta but still want to be close to dining and shopping options, this is the perfect place for you. The location offers a peaceful retreat with all the conveniences nearby."

Amazing location, beautiful big pool. The condo is cute , the second bed was not in a private room, so really only good for kids or family members not another couple. The kitchen sink tap could be updated it was loose and there was no hot water only luke warm. We never complained as we were only there a week. I am sure it could be fixed. Host was very responsive. I would rent again.

Our second stay

This was our second stay in the condo. It was very clean and well appointed. I personally find the bedroom too bright at night due to a lot of lighting outside and from the pool area. I feel it would be fit from black out blinds. Otherwise, a very comfortable stay.

November stay

Very happy with the accomodations everything was as advertised. Well equipped unit closet to the beach. Used the barbeque on the deck most nights which was a bonus. Great to be able to walk on the multipurpose trail through Nuevo every day and a close walk to the grocery stores. Only downside was the poolside patio furniture which features fixed position loungers that are uncomfortable however the unit comes equipped with some folding chairs that were more comfortable. Overall a very pleasant trip
