About this property

A castle on the hill, with stone walls 3 feet thick. One of a just handful of villas that are just a quick walk to the Romantic Zone. It evokes the feel of a Hollywood movie set. With elegance, style, & artistic touches everywhere.

This spacious (almost 10,000 sq. ft.), walled Tuscan stone villa overlooking Banderas Bay and the beautifully charming Old Town/Romantic Zone, is one of the rare private treasures where you can EASILY walk from your front gate to fabulous gourmet restaurants or funky joints surrounding the Romantic Zone and Old Town, the Blue Chairs of Los Muertos Beach, and the downtown Malecon.

Return to your huge pool deck, surrounded by total privacy, and have your own chef, access to an in-house masseuse & spa amenities, Meditate with private Yoga, high speed wireless Internet, Netflix, Apple TV, & streaming services. This is a walled, private estate looking out on PV and the blue Pacific. At night you can watch fireworks from the terrace.

Accommodating staff of 3 is included in rental. That means all needs are taken care of. You can have poolside cocktail service at your whim. The staff is super personable, speaks English, and has been trained to be both invisible when need-be and by your side when needed. Chef services for breakfast included; Additional Chef services available for lunch/dinner for small fee.

The Villa was designed so that each bedroom has a comfortable, private area. Guests can choose to retire to a soul enriching space all their own, or join family & friends in the larger areas, for fun and festivities.

This delightful, elegant home was featured on THE HGTV network and for years was a favorite on the Vallarta Home tour. Think Porto Fino on the Mexican Riviera.

We know you'll love its style, elegance, and above all, it's soul.

A memorable special place

For 6 adults and 3 children under 3, Casa Ileana was very spacious. There are private outside sitting rooms for quiet time. We enjoyed the large family area with large sofas and a dining area where we could all congregate. The pool was perfect for the little ones. Beautifully decorated. Thank you to the staff for the delicious food and their warmth. Guests with mobility issues may find the climb and stairs difficult to maneuver.

PVR Bliss

This property has so much character, very private, and plenty of space. I love that each room had its own private outdoor seating area and there was plenty of space to lounge around in. The beds were very comfortable.The service by the house staff was amazing- we arrived with a stocked fridge and bar with food and drinks waiting on us. They consistently checked in on us to see if we needed additional grocery or drink items so we never had to make a trip to the store, we had several breakfast and dinners prepared by Christina and they were lovely with no stress of finding a place to eat or planning a menu. Will stay here again!

Lovely stay and great location

Every review that we read was exactly spot on. The pictures do not do it justice. The house was perfect for our group. The views are amazing and Christina is the best chef we’ve had at a Puerto Vallarta property. We will definitely return!

Awesome House

The house was incredible. The pictures don't do the house justice. We spent every night at the pool enjoying the view. Christina and her staff were very friendly and her food was delicious. We are already looking at planning a repeat trip.

Idyllic Property near Zona Romantica

We could not speak highly enough about this idyllic property. It is perfect for up to 5 couples with King size beds in all rooms. It is very close to Zona Romantica and it’s amazing culture and night life- just a short walk or very inexpensive Uber ride (if you prefer to avoid walking up the steep hill). Cristina, the house manager, and her staff take amazing care of you providing you with authentic meals and ensuring you have everything you need for the home but also providing privacy when needed. The owners, Sylvia and Jon, are equally amazing. They were very informative and responsive to all our questions and needs (going above and beyond)! The indoor/outdoor living room/gathering area has extremely comfortable and deep lounging couch area that allow you to take in the beautiful views of the pool, city and ocean. (Of note, if you’re traveling in warmer months the only large sitting space that has air conditioning is in the master suite, although this usually isn’t an issue with the amazing breeze and multiple fans provided). Highly recommend and hope to return in the future!

About the host

Hosted by jon duncanson

Award winning television journalists Jon & Sylvia have traveled the world and bring that sensibility and experience to this lovingly renovated stone villa. We've made this home modern, but keeping in mind the old Mexico ambience--so you feel the true spirit of this generous country. We regularly host CEO's, media personalities, families & major tour book editors. This is an elegant HOME...it does not feel like a 'rental property'. When you stay here, you imagine you're in one of the finest homes in the world looking at one of the best views on Earth. We love it. We hope you do, too.

Why they chose this property

We were sailing down the Mexican coast after 9 months at sea and pulled into Puerto Vallarta for the hurricane season. As a curiosity we started looking at the charming old homes downtown. Walking through the hills of Vallarta we saw this amazing stone villa looking out over the city, bay & ocean. We literally said, "wouldn't that be a cool place to live!" The next day, we found it was for sale. The moment we walked up the stairs and into the main living quarters, we were sold. Literally. Coincidentally, nearly every person who walks into this home has the same reaction.

What makes this property unique

The principal benefits are views, service, location & privacy. The layout of the home is designed to give each bedroom it's own private rest space, for the times when a guest wants to get away from even his or her friends or family. Read a book, take a nap, swing in the hammock. Yet, when it's time to come together, the indoor-outdoor living makes everything inviting. Above all, this home is one of the only big villas where you can WALK down into town and Los Muertos Beach within minutes. So if a restaurant urge strikes (and there are loads of great eateries nearby), you walk out the gate and you're there (or the beachfront, too)! We can arrange airport pickup and staff can direct you with any help you may need (and can get huge discounts on tours and packages).
