Wonderful Vacation

We (group of 7, ages 5-74) stayed for seven nights and didn’t want to leave! The home was beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The homeowners were in touch throughout and easy to communicate with. The house keepers were incredible! If we weren’t at the beach or the beach club pool, we were lounging in the big yard, sitting at the home’s private pool or on the comfortable second floor balcony with an ocean view. Can’t wait to go back someday!

Best VRBO rental ever

My family (kids 10 and 12), my mother (80 years old) and my sister's family (kids 17, 20, and 24) stayed at this house for a week. It was the best house we have ever stayed at-and we have had a lot of lake and beach rentals over the years. This was perfect for families and would also work well for friends/groups of friends. The pictures don't do the house justice. Chello and Nora are lovely-they come daily to cook and clean. They prepare both breakfast and lunch and clean everything. We didn't do dishes or sweep or make a bed for the week. Having them prepare meals twice a day was amazing. The food was fantastic! Nora was particularly lovely and noticed my son's teddy bear had a hole and the stuffing was coming out. She sewed it up one day and didn't even tell us. They do not speak English well but we used the google translate to communicate. The owner/host Dana was more communicative than any other host we have experienced. She called me prior to the trip to run through possible sleeping arrangements and what to expect. She called a few times during the trip to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. The walk to the beach club pool/beach was maybe 5 minutes. They also have a couple golf carts which was nice for when my mom did not want to walk. It really is the perfect house-we will come back in the future.

Ideal property for a group or family getaway!

The week went by too fast on this stunning property! The owners went above and beyond communicating with us prior to and during our visit, and we were welcomed by the house staff upon our arrival. The property itself is ideal; a double lot fully stocked with amenities: ping pong table, yard games, a fire pit, private pool, and plenty of areas to both gather together and relax with a book. We caught a World Cup game on the TV outside at the outdoor dining area while the kids swam in the pool, and enjoyed yoga (and later drinks) on the rooftop patio overlooking the ocean. The views of both the water and the surrounding hills are stunning, and all of the rooms were very comfortable-nobody felt like there was a substandard room in the entire home! The staff kept things immaculate and cooked for us during our stay, purchased groceries prior to our arrival and ordered cars for us when we wanted to leave the property. The beach club was beautiful; pool over the water and high-quality furniture both poolside and under the large palapa. The beach is swimmable and we could walk to restaurants on nearby properties when we did not want to get in the car. This was the perfect week for our family on a property that met all of our wants and needs!

Amazing vacation

We had an incredible trip. Dana and Craig went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. They were both so responsive to all our questions and gave us so much helpful information and recommendations. Their house is beautiful with so many lounging and sitting areas, backyard plunge pool, fire pit, rooftop pool and sunset views. We took the golf carts down the short hill to the beach club every day and relaxed at the pool and/or pristine sandy beach. Chelo was wonderful - she prepared breakfast and lunch, made reservations, arranged taxis, Covid tests, and even helped take care of our baby while we packed. I can’t say enough about how great of an experience we had. We will definitely return again.

About the host

Your host

We are a family of five, with three young boys, and live in Southern California. We love our home in Mexico, and choose to spend at least a weekend a month and most holidays. We all surf and enjoy the beach.

Why they chose this property

We have been traveling to PV for the past several years, and have enjoyed staying in many different homes, luxury villas and high-end hotels of Vallarta; downtown, Concha’s Chinas, Mismaloya, Nuevo, Sayulita, and Punta Mita. However, none of them compared to the beach of Playa Destiladeras. Our home located in a secluded guard gated community sits on sandy stretch of beach that is considered a hidden jewel by the locals. People who live in Vallarta and the surrounding beach towns chose to drive to beach because it has so much to offer. Playa Destiladeras is a perfect beach for family vacations or a group of friends that want to get away from it all. It is nice because even though you have the feeling of isolation, you are 10 minutes from either Punta Mita or La Crux de Huanacaxtle, where you can enjoy fine dining, and enjoy the Mexican shops. Other beaches are rocky and not swimable or dirty, crowded or too small to have any room to walk about. Our 4 bedroom home perched high above the Playa Destiladeras offers sweeping view from the palapa covered terraces and rooftop deck with Jacuzzi sunsets and lounging with friends in the covered sitting area. Our housekeeper would gladly make you a variety of dishes for breakfasts and/or lunches or pack you a picnic to take the beach and beach club which is only steps away. Beach club has kitchen, so as you lounge at the infinity pool you can keep all your drinks cool. The sandy beach is great for walking barefoot as well as it provides great waves for boogie boarding and has both a beach and reef surf breaks at the northern point. At the southern point vendors sell everything from platters of fruit to grilled fish and meat, along with the traditional vendor supply of jewelry, hats and crafts. We love the location so much and felt so safe we moved our three kids there in 2008 and lived there for two years, sending our kids to a local school.

What makes this property unique

We have a truly breathtaking sandy beach that you can enjoy either in the beach club, on the sand or privacy of your own home. (See above why we chose this location). Let the crashing sound of the waves lull you to sleep or go for an early morning run or late night stroll, spend all day at the beach or go up to the house for a nap on one of the many patios or the privacy of your own bedroom. Arrange for a private chef to make authentic meal or anything you would like. Alternatively, take a 10 minute car ride to either Punta Mita or La Cruz and have tacos in the street or elegant meal at several of the high end venues. La Cruz harbor offers fishing boats large and small or take tour of Banderas Bay while you go whale watching. Surfing ease is one of the greatest assets that the house offers, with both a sandy beach break and reef break, both within walking distance. The private gated community with 24 hour security offers both a beach club, tennis courts and gym. There is spa next door but you can have any and all services ordered in at the home.
