Boca

Absolutely gorgeous authentic Jungle property. It is situated on a river, with a short walk on the cobble and dirt road/path to the ocean beach and restaurants. The outside patios are phenomenal! Cherry and Nick are absolutely fantastic hosts! I will definitely stay again when I am in Boca!

Absolutely loved it!

Hidden behind blooming bougainvillea trees, Casa Cereza was truly a place we felt welcomed the moment we arrived. Cherry is such an accommodating host; thoughtful and generous. So many big and little (but still important) things are planned and provided for the guests to make your stay comfy and enjoyable! And in a case you need something else (i.e. a bigger pot to make soup or an advice where to buy the best shrimps in town), just ask. I also must note here that Cherry definitely placed her heart, taste and talent to make Casa Cereza a very unique and charming place. Once there, look around for all the décor and details; me and my husband were competing in discovering something special every day. Now to something we didn’t expect at all: on the second day into vacation we were offered a free upgrade to a bigger room! (Totally free for us, and, on a top of this, Cherry had to jump some hoops to make it work with VRBO.) We are so grateful! Planning to be back one day :)

Wonderful suite and host

We so enjoyed our stay! The hosts were very friendly and helpful with suggesting places to eat and how to get around. The suite was comfortable and cute. It is right at the start of a hike to the local beaches, which was beautiful and challenging! Would definitely stay here again if we came back to Boca de Tomatlan.

About the host

Hosted by Cherry Lane DeLorenzo

Host profile image
When we first moved here, my husband and I began to live our dreams, he puttering about the house fixing, building, designing, and me... and I began to dream of 3 small but unique apartments to share our dream with other adventurous travelers. We both love the outdoors, kayak fishing, swimming, snorkeling and hiking. We love to entertain although COVID has pretty much put a damper on that, we maintain social distancing while still enjoying the company of friends and guests. Nick is a landscape architect and land planner with a company in San Diego for which he still travels periodically for meetings and consultations but he has also gotten a few projects right here in Puerto Vallarta. We love Boca de Tomatlan, the people, the experience, the culture.

Why they chose this property

Casa Ceresa offers a beautiful garden, spacious patios, clean comfortable quiet rooms with fully equipped kitchens and AC. Someone is always here to make sure all your needs, questions and requests are taken care of promptly. It is decorated with Mexican artifacts, art and comfortable surroundings. Although you do have to walk across the swinging bridge at the end of the parking lot to get to our side of the river, we are only two blocks to the right of the bridge. We take extra care to make sure our guests have the best possible experience for their stay away from home.

What makes this property unique

Our location is really perfect, just across the bridge from the stores and beach restaurants and the famous Las Animas hike, a favorite with locals and tourists starts right at our front gate. What a great hike, up into the jungle, down to the beaches, past beautiful resorts and restaurants, 30 minutes to the first beach (Colomitos) a gorgeous little alcove of a bay within a bay, rocks and sand and clear water make great snorkeling and 1 1/2 hours to Las Animas, a long tranquil beach with palapa restaurants and clear water.
