About this property

Casa Ventana: Luxury Penthouse.

Top quality penthouse amenities and furnishings, walking distance to town, beaches, incredible views of the old town and ocean, sun drenched private pool deck, even in Winter.
While the quality of amenities and furnishings are important, and they are certainly top notch at Casa Ventana, by far the most critical factor when choosing a rental, is LOCATION. This is one of the main reasons why Casa Ventana has been such a success year after year, and in spite of significant competition. It is because we are walking distance to town, beaches, have incredible views, and full sun on our private pool deck, even in Winter.
On the first floor of Casa Ventana, bi-fold glass doors fold away onto the deck that wraps around the living and dining room area, and boasts a fully equipped gourmet stainless steel and granite kitchen, two master bedrooms each with private baths, guest bathroom, laundry room and more.
On the top floor of Casa Ventana you will find a spacious conterra stone tiled sunning deck with lush tropical gardens, and your very own private infinity plunge pool. This level also has a bar, studio size master bedroom with cathedral ceilings and entertainment center, marble bathroom, and a covered living room with built in furniture that opens onto the deck and ocean views.
During your stay you will be pampered by Lette, our house manager and professionally trained beauty and massage therapist, who will make sure you are always comfortable. On arrival, Lette will prepare complimentary welcome margaritas to accompany homemade tortillas, salsa, and guacamole. Feel free to make arrangements with Lette to shop for groceries, prepare exquisite and authentic gourmet Mexican meals, as well as for a massage or facial treatment. (Please note: meal preparation and spa treatments are an additional charge paid directly to Lette).

And if it is just a lazy day you are after, stay home and watch cable TV channels, maybe read one of our hundreds of books, or just sit back and enjoy a view that will take your breath away. Casa Ventana is truly a unique property – perfect location, unsurpassed views, luxurious appointments, all amenities, and outstanding service with a personal touch.
Casa Ventana’s reputation precedes it. The vast majority of our guests are returning guests or referrals from former guests and we believe this says a lot about not only the quality of the accommodation and services we offer, but also overall value for money.
While Puerto Vallarta is seemingly awash in condominium rentals and deals, I have been renting our home in Vallarta since 1998, with the same staff that I have had from day one, namely Lette. We have also just completed our third full renovation in 13 years, bringing everything up to new quality, again, with all new bathrooms, kitchen, hand cut stone floor tiles, electrical fittings, appliances, and furniture. The vast majority of our guests are returning guests, which underscores the overall value for money not to mention quality.
Guests will have access to the large shared swimming pool as well as their own private rooftop swimming pool. It is a short walk to the beach and to the old town.
Our house manager Lette will liaise with the guests and arrange maid service.
Casa Ventana is centrally located, perched on a cliff high above Central Puerto Vallarta's Souths Side (Romantic Zone), overlooking Los Muertos Beach and the Pacific Ocean. From Casa Ventana you can walk to all Vallarta's top tourist attractions in town, and from our central location, all other attractions are easy to reach.
Taxis are cheap and plentiful in Puerto Vallarta.

Beautiful Spot

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Ventana for the week. The whole experience from start to the end was amazing and effortless. Ron and Moises did their best to accommodate and check in with us to make sure we had anything that we needed on hand. We visit PV yearly for the fiestas patrias and this was a gem of a location since it had its own pool at the top to enjoy the view. We look forward to being able to visit in the future as this house is so beautiful and relaxing and having the options to be taken care whether it be massages or help with groceries and of course dinner wise if we choose to in the future as well. Thank you to everyone at Casa Ventana.

Relaxing and luxurious stay for the family!

We had a wonderful stay with our family, including our two young children. Communication was easy, the meals Lette made were delicious, the house staff Mary and Yoshi were wonderful as well. The kids enjoyed the plunge pool and larger shared pool. The views were so lovely, especially the sunsets! We took Ubers to and from the house. We appreciated all of the amenities and attention to detail of the home and from the staff. We will definitely return!

Absolutely stunning property

Stunning views, wonderful breezes through the main floor. Top deck is absolutely gorgeous. Staff is very friendly and helpful. It is a hike up a rollercoaster of a hill to get there if walking but taxis are cheap and plentiful. We walked down most times and cabbed up although a walk was fine for the exercise. I would highly recommend this top tier condo!

Outstanding views!

We were 3 couples staying for a week. The accommodations with 3 bedrooms/4 baths, well-appointed kitchen, large dining room table, living room seating with outstanding views, private pools and wonderful staff made this a vacation we will never forget! The views above the city far exceeded our expectation, though the daily walking trips down and back for meals were quite a hike. We enjoyed the challenge and had some good laughs along the way. Every interaction with the staff added to our appreciation and enjoyment of our stay at Casa Ventana in PV. We hope to be back again...and again! Thanks to Ron, Lette, Yoshi, Josephina, Mary, Nike for a GREAT week!

Magnificent Views in Puerto Ballarta

The condo was spacious, clean, and luxurious, with amazing views of Bandaras Bay and the romantic zone. The rooftop patio with plunge pool and large guest room were especially nice. We had Letty make us dinner one night that consisted of guacamole and chips, tortilla soup, mango and jicama salad, chicken with mole, rice, and refried beans. Everything was delicious and there were enough leftovers to serve everyone lunch the next day. Loved this condo and would recommend it to anyone without mobility issues (multiple stairs on property and licated at top of hill from town).

Best views of Puerto Vallarta

The property was absolutely stunning! It had the best views from almost every part of the villa. The dipping pool was an amazing oasis during the hot part of the day. The large windows in the villa made for great viewing of the sunsets and thunderstorms. Lette and her staff were wonderful. We will definitely be visiting again.

Wonderful vacation

I can’t say enough good things about our stay at Casa Ventana. The property is stunning , the views are spectacular. The property is tastefully decorated with lovely art and comfortable furniture. We enjoyed both the private plunge pool as well as the shared larger swimming pool. Location is great…we walked down to the beach and restaurant/bars. The taxi ride up is very inexpensive. You can walk up the hill but it is steep. I can’t wait to return to PV and I will definitely rebook at Casa Ventana!! The staff were friendly and very helpful!

Just a phenomenal place—tremendous views, great location, very spacious, extremely clean and well appointed and of course Lette and Yoahi are extremely good at getting everything organized. I recommend Casa Ventana or the sister property Villa Ventana as high as possible!!

Fabulous 50th!

Ron and Lette's team made my 50th extra special. Ron was very responsive and helpful throughout the booking process. Lette and her team did a great job at the property. The place is amazing and comfortable. I would suggest you have Lette cook for you at least one night. The convenience of her going to Costco for me in advance so the house was ready to go when we arrived was great. I will be staying again and a friend is already planning on booking her 60th here. Thanks for making my birthday extra special.

Private and comfortable with stunning views

Casa Ventana was the perfect location for our first visit to beautiful Puerto Vallarta. The location offered easy access to the activity of the Zona Romántica and Playa Los Muertos. The hill-side location may prove challenging for those with mobility limitations, but cabs and Uber are readily available and inexpensive. The noise from the highway below could be intrusive, as others have mentioned, but the bedrooms were quiet if using the air conditioning. Letty and her team provided efficient service. Guests should take advantage of Letty's wonderful cooking. We hope to return soon.

Stunning Amapas views and welcoming staff

The wow factor of this property is the 180+ degree views of PV and Bahía de Banderas. After checking out the indoor/outdoor open living space, 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, you forget that there is also a rooftop negative edge pool, bar/lounge area, and ANOTHER bedroom and bathroom. Upon our arrival the manager Lette and her assistant met us with fresh margaritas, chips and guacamole before showing us around. It's hard not to take a deep breath and feel relaxed right away. Housekeeping staff did a great job during the stay, and were flexible by asking when we preferred them to arrive each day. It is possible to walk to Zona Romantica, but I wouldn't recommend it if 1) it's raining -- the Amapas streets are narrow, steep and mostly without sidewalks. Would be slippery when wet; 2) if you have any physical difficulties with steep inclines. We did the walk a few times, but much preferred calling an Uber or taxi. If you use a rideshare app make sure you drop a pin on the map and confirm that the correct street address is selected for your pickup. There were a few minor maintenance issues, mostly burned out light bulbs, but nothing that detracted from our amazing stay. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely Amazing!

We just returned from a stay at Casa Ventana and had an amazing time! Ron (owner) was very communicative and Letty (house manager) made sure that everything was taken care at all times (including ground transportation, meals, housekeeping services and the check-out process). The view is absolutely breathtaking and accommodations/staff far exceeded our expectations. It was a wonderful and relaxing trip and we cannot wait to return to Casa Ventana! Thanks Ron, Letty and everyone at Casa Ventana for a memorable and amazing 5 star trip. Look forward to our next stay at Casa Ventana! :-)

Hillside Dream!

We have visited PV a number of times, but this was our first VRBO experience, as we have only stayed in hotels previously. No more hotels for us - we will stay at Casa Ventana from now on! Pre-Arrival/Arrival: Ron and his staff are very attentive and professional, offering up lots of helpful information even prior to our arrival to help ensure a wonderful vacation (we used all of their tips and recommendations and they were all great!). They had a cab waiting for us at the airport, and away we went! The Condo: Nothing short of fabulous. The views can't be beat, and while it is located in a condominium complex, the way the units are situated, it feels like you are in a stand-alone home when you're in the condo. Loved the plunge pool - it's bigger than expected, with a shallow ledge section and a deeper section to fully immerse yourself in the water. And did I mention the views? They're spectacular from the pool. Staff: Yoshi, Aurora, and Eugenio were amazing. Yoshi took care of anything we needed and promptly replied to inquiries via text message. We highly recommend that you utilize the meal prep option; Aurora and Eugenio cooked meals that easily rivaled the best restaurants in PV, and the price can't be beat! Location: The condo is conveniently located a short walk from the beach and plenty of shops and restaurants. The Malecon is also a short walk away. There are some portions of the walk that are a bit steep, but this shouldn't deter you from renting this condo. Our group of six (including three teenagers) walked it multiple times every day, but we did once take a taxi because we got caught in a downpour, and it was only 40 pesos (a little over $2). Also, I read in the reviews that someone complained they didn't sleep well because of city noise, and I honestly have no idea what they could be referring to. My husband is a very light sleeper, and we enjoyed a peaceful night's sleep every night! If you want a genuine PV experience in a great location with fabulous staff, Casa Ventana is the place for you!

About the host

Hosted by Ron Eckstrom

Host profile image
We purchased Casa Ventana new in 1999, and since then it has underwent three renovations. We are also the owners of the exquisite Villa Ventana - a luxury 12,000 sq/ft seven bedroom architectural masterpiece across the street from Casa Ventana. The majority of our guests are repeat visitors, which says a lot about the overall quality of our Puerto Vallarta properties and overall value for money.

Why they chose this property

On my first visit to Puerto Vallarta in 1999, as a property investor, I was inspired by a small condominium block perched on the edge of a cliff over town that was under construction. I walked up the hill to have a closer look, and was amazed. Two weeks later I owned the Penthouse (still under construction), and was involved in all aspects of the final design and fit out. Ten years later, I am still amazed.

What makes this property unique

This romantic hideaway on the Mexican Riviera features a private infinity plunge pool and expansive and unobstructed views of all of Puerto Vallarta, the Bay of Banderas, and the Pacific Ocean beyond. Casa Ventana is a 3,500 sq/ft, 2 level, 3 bath luxury executive penthouse suitable for up to 6 adults. Casa Ventana is an easy 10 minute walk to the best of Puerto Vallarta’s restaurants, night clubs, shopping and beaches. While staying at Casa Ventana you will be pampered by our staff, including a beauty therapist and chef for those nights that you choose to dine at home.
