About this property
Luxury 3-bed Villa,Spectacular Views, Saline pool & Staff
Villa Ensueno is a private villa located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the exclusive Conchas Chinas neighborhood surrounded by beautiful homes and mansions on the desirable south shore of Puerto Vallarta. The villa is positioned on a point overlooking the magnificent Banderas Bay with views of the ocean that are simply breathtaking. The views begin with the rugged Pacific coastline, then extend around the bay to take in the wide expanse of the ocean and it's spectacular sunsets. To the left of the villa is the deep green of the jungle with views of palms and Parota trees that extend high up into the mountains. The views are truly some of the finest in all of Puerto Vallarta and a highlight for our guests.
During the days, the ocean changes by the minute, a panorama of activity and sound that engages the senses. In mid-December to early April you might see a humpback whale teaching her calf to breach, and on other days schools of fish and the many fishing and pleasure craft passing by.
Enjoy the tranquility of Villa Ensueno, and yet be only an 8-minute walk to one of the finest beaches in Puerto Vallarta with its charming open-air restaurant. Turn to the north and drive 5 minutes into the dynamic Romantic Zone with its many cafes, restaurants and shopping.
Villa Ensueno offers an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, stained glass windows, and curved archways. Most rooms in the villa open onto a patio with expansive ocean views. There are three primary bedrooms en-suite, each with a king-size bed with high-thread count cotton sheets and either hypoallergenic or down pillows, each air-conditioned. Each suite has a private bath, tiled or stone showers and interior garden space. Hair dryers, shampoo, and body wash are also provided.
The lower terrace of Villa Ensueno is clad in Canterra stone and features a saline infinity pool overlooking the south-west with a lovely cabana perfect for dining, lounging or entertaining. Opposite the cabana and separated by a soothing fountain, are two king-sized daybeds to take in the sun or enjoy a siesta. The position of the property ensures you will enjoy breathtaking views of the ocean all day long in a setting that ensures total privacy.
For entertainment, there is a large-screen TV, Netflix, Apple TV, and wireless Internet along with indoor and outdoor Bose speakers for music. There are plenty of games and books for added enjoyment.

Jerold is the most accommodating host and his staff Ana and Raul are beyond belief. The pictures on the site don’t do it justice. The views are incredible!
Everything was top notch - accommodations, food, service, layout and the views.

Hello Greg
Thanks so much for your kind review.
I’m glad you got to see a side of Puerto Vallarta that many others don’t see and that you had some memorable experiences.
We very much enjoyed having you and your group at Villa Ensueno and welcome you back again and again.
Best regards,
Jerold
My husband and I had an incredible stay at Villa Ensueño in December. The property and views from it are absolutely stunning! We loved swimming in the pool and taking in the view down the coast, and watching the sunset every evening while enjoying one of Raul’s delicious margaritas. Ana & Raul helped make our stay even more enjoyable, and we loved Ana’s meals, particularly the chilaquiles and huevos rancheros for breakfast. From the moment we booked, to the pre-arrival suggestions from the owner, Jerold, to our entire stay, everything was top notch. Thank you!

Anna and Raul were very welcoming hosts. Anna's dishes were delicious. Our favorite was the snapper zarandeado. The views from the villa are amazing amd filled with abundant sunshine throughout the day. Plenty of space for our family of 5. Location is very convenient and Ubers were very easy. Jerold is an amazing hosts with lots of ideas for excursions for everyone to enjoy. Don't forget to check out Charley's for a lovely day of food, drinks and an amazing beach with chairs and service. Thank you again. We hope to be back!

Kind regards,

We had a fabulous stay at Villa Ensueno! The view was spectacular, pool sparkling clean as was the beautiful home, and we had eveything we could want. Ana and Raul took great care of us and all of the meals Ana prepared were delicious! The host was super communacative and gave us a lot of great info on local activities and restaurants.

Dear Irene;
Thank you very much for choosing Villa Ensueno for your vacation and thank you for your kind words.
Our staff very much enjoyed having your family in the villa and look forward to welcoming you back soon. K.
Kind regards,
Jerold
Villa Ensueno exceeded our expectations! The home itself is beautiful colonia architecture, and is spacious. All three bedrooms are ensuites, and two have an amazing view to the pool and ocean beyond. The front bedroom has a beautiful setting in its own right, with a very private garden and veranda feel.Jerold could not have been more responsive as a host- his care and suggestions make him feel more like an old family friend. Ana and Raul are on-site during the day and we didn’t want for anything! Make sure to have Raul make a margarita( they are the best!), and Ana’s cooking is fabulous, but we LOVED her ribs! The infinity pool is VERY large and has a seating ledge so you can relax your day away looking out at the bay and los Arcos. The cabana is another favorite spot. A perfect place to spend your late afternoon or evening listening to music on the speaker all while taking in the view.I have stayed at several VRBO’s in PVR and this one is by far the best! We are already planning our return.

Hi Jerry,
Thanks so much for your positive review. We were delighted to host you at the villa.
Ana and Raul enjoyed your group so much and were very sorry to see you go. A great many of our guests have stayed at the villa multiple times, making it a second home. We look forward to sharing the villa with you again. Give my warm regards to the rest of your group!
Kind regards,
Jerold
We had an amazing time celebrating our beloved friend’s bachelorette party. We had 5 friends in their 30s in our group and the house was perfect. Photos don’t do it justice! Anna and Raul were awesome- amazing food and friendly service. The view is unforgettable.
This villa is stunning! The views of the Bay are breathtaking. Our cook and housekeeper Ana was a joy and very talented. While the kitchen does need some updating, the villa is spacious and comfortable. The pool was a real joy. We look forward to our next stay!
Great house in beautiful location with amazing ocean views. Comes with house keeping staff which was very helpful during our stay
Only short 5 minutes away by car from town
Highly recommended if you want to vacation at PV.
The villa is gorgeous and everything it shows in the pictures. The neighborhood is safe and the view is incredible. Anna and Raul were absolutely amazing and took very good care of us. We plan to come back because it was such a great experience.

So glad you enjoyed your stay! Ana and Raul are looking forward to your return.
Architecturally beautiful private home with incredible views. Anna and Rahul are the perfect hosts to care for your needs. Anna is a great cook and very personable. Rahul is a great backup taking care of the property. I would definitely stay here again.
There was no better spot in the world to spend my husbands 50th birthday. The day was filled with margaritas, lounging in the pool and taking in the astonishing view. It is a spectacular place. Ana and Raul topped it off with incredible attention to detail and cooking better than any restaurant.
Thank you for such a memorable stay.
Our trip surpassed our group’s expectations. The house was beautiful and Anna and Raul were so friendly, accommodating, and made everything flow so easily. Not to mention, what an amazing cook Anna is! The house has a great location with breathtaking views. Absolutely beautiful! Is near the more beautiful beaches of Puerto Vallarta. We will definitely be back soon!!

It was our pleasure! Looking forward to hearing from you again soon.

The house is beautiful and was the perfect size home for our group of 6. The two rooms on the back of the house have ocean views so the one bedroom in the front is a little less desirable as it overlooks street. That said, all have king beds with en suite bathrooms.The house was clean and lots of room to spread out both indoors and out. Ana as everyone has noted is a fabulous cook and willing to do pretty much anything you want. We hosted a fun fiesta one night complete with Mariachi band ! Ana's husband is also fantastic on the grill!! They take care of everything during your stay and are good at flying under the radar.I would say my only critique would be the slight odor coming from the drain in the tub and toilet.
I was recently in PV for my brothers wedding at a nearby resort and spent the last 4 days at Villa Ensueno. It was the perfect way to end our trip. The house and sunsets were amazing, and it was really cheap/easy to get into town using Uber. Ana and Raul were absolutely incredible. They planned a birthday fiesta for me, that my friends and family will be talking about for years to come, complete with delicious Mexican food, a piñata, mariachi band and firework display. The only negative is that several dishes have been ruined for me as nothing will ever compare to Ana’s cooking.

About the host
Hosted by Jerold Balzer
Why they chose this property
Villa Ensueno is one of the original villas constructed in Conchas Chinas Colonia, a beautiful, hilly district on the stunning south side of Puerto Vallarta facing the famous Arcos Rocks, composed of meandering cobblestone streets with many beautiful mansions and villas. It is easily the finest Colonial in Puerto Vallarta with its own semi-private beach that is rated the finest or near finest in all of Puerto Vallarta. Because of its location, the villa boasts one of the finest views of the sea and the jungle without the distraction of looking out over rooftops. The experience is entirely private and feels and looks ecological…living within nature.
