About this property

Your secret getaway with a pool and the beach! What else do you need?! Kite surf

YOUR SECRET HIDE-AWAY, BEACH VILLA WITH ALL THE ACCOMMODATIONS YOU NEED! NOT located in a high rise, not a condo and we are green! An ornate beach getaway just for you! Located just 25 minutes from Vidanta.
Solar panels, recycle coming and LED lightbulbs! If you are looking for something more private, this is it! It is just perfect! Beach, ocean, balcony, coffee pot, blender, air conditioning, lounge chairs, large deck, beach access, pool...what else do you need!? Walk in the front door, wipe your flip flops, head to the back door and there is your swimming pool! The only thing that separates you from the beach and Casa Tina is our pool!

Casa Tina is located in the fishing village of Bucerias, on the Bay of Banderas. The bay is the second largest bay in the world. During January, dolphins and whales can be seen from the balcony of Casa Tina. Bucerias and Casa Tina have everything you want or need for your fabulous vacation. The people of Bucerias are very friendly and helpful. Casa Tina and Bucerias are laid-back, for a stress-less vacation!

Casa Tina is in a gated secure area. Views are absolutely outstanding! Shopping and eating is all walking distance! My property manager, Felipe, will buy your groceries and have them at the Casa for you! Jorge, my taxi driver, can pick you up from Puerto Vallarta airport for stress less transfer to your Casa; plus, Jorge will stop to buy beer, on the way. $120 for the concierge service.

$91 VIP services if ordered through Felipe. Better than waiting in the taxi line. These are Suburban or van type vehicles.

Beach is clean and quiet! GREAT BEACH FOR SWIMMING AND PLAYING-NOT ROCKY! Great for boogie boarding and paddle boarding!

2 Boogie boards and life vests are in the downstairs closet.

Surfing is 15 minutes north and golfing is ten minutes south at the Flamingos! Excursions are only a fingertip away, ask my property manager, Felipe! He knows all the best places! Bring your laptop-there is an internet connection! Wi-fi

Perfect Home Away From Home

This was our second vacation in Bucerias and Casa Tina did not disappoint. Tina and Felipe were easy to communicate with and made the stay effortless. The house is in a perfect location on the beach and close to all the delicious restaurants Bucerias has to offer. It was safe and the house had all the necessities a family needed to be comfortable. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it! Thanks Tina

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Casa Tina this past Christmas. The house accomodated 6 adults and 1 6 month old infant beautifully. The full kitchen and laundry facilities were wonderful to have and the immediate access to the beach, the pool and the nearby eateries made this a truly wonderful holiday. In fact, we have just rebooked for another week in 2008.

Excellent location and amenities. Needs a tiny bit of tlc.

Casa Tina was a nice house in a great location with lots of amenities. We were rarely out of the pool or beach and then walked to local restaurants, grocery store and shops. Tina and her local staff were easily accessible, very accommodating and super nice. My only criticism is that a few things needed some attention and updating, but it was a great price point.

New Years Eve

We (7 of us) just spent an amazing 8 days at Casa Tina. This 3 bedroom, 3 full bath house on the beach with a great pool in a perfect location in Bucerias and very Safe. Casa Tina has everything you need and is close to many great restaurants and places to shop, all walkable. We enjoyed the fireworks show on New Years Eve on the private beach. What an experience. Can't wait to book Casa Tina again.

Wonderful

We have stayed at Casa Tina several times. It is a great house in a lovely setting convenient to Bucerias amenities. The house is clean and kept that way by an excellent housekeeper, Theresa. A real bonus is access to the property manager, Filipe who is extremely responsive to needs and who provides lower cost access to tours, etc. Filipe's tours often include tour guide and driver, Jorge who has an extraordinary fund of historical, cultural and geographic knowledge of the area.

Fantastic Place!

What a find! We had a great time at Casa Tina, with its charming nautical décor and spacious design. Tina, Felipe and Jorge bent over backwards to help make sure all went smoothly and that we could relax and ENJOY. We loved watching the glorious sunsets from the balcony off the bedrooms, with its full view of the beach and enchanting swimming pool. We swam in the warm ocean water every day. In town, we felt safe exploring colorful Bucerias’ authentic village shops, walkways and parks. Our family would love to return!

Great rental in an amazing location

This is our second time staying on this compound in Bucerias. We stayed at a neighboring casa 6 years ago. We will surely be back. The pool is great for kids and is usually empty. Everyone we met around the adjacent properties was great. It's close enough to stores and restaurants so you can get everything you need. The place was clean and had everything we needed. The area is extremely safe from everything we can tell. We went with my young girls ages 7 and 3 and my parents. Everyone had fun in this low-key town.

The One to Top!

Tina, Thanks so much for the rental of your awesome home! We had an absolutely fantastic holiday! The area is perfect! Felipe was a gem. The flowers were so beautiful that we used them as our "Christmas Tree" so Santa could put the presents under them. There could not have been an easier place to stay with our 4 kids.We had such a great time that I think this holiday is going to go down in the books as "The One to Top" Thanks again, The Pierce Gang,
