About this property

Great RATES with full STAFF! Relax and enjoy!

This villa accommodates up to 8 adults. Bedrooms are set up as 3 kings and a queen or one bedroom can be made up as two twins.

From the villa you are within walking distance of Mismaloya beach said to be one of the top 3 beaches in Mexico. If you prefer not to walk you can take a cab for $5. There you can relax by lounging by the oceans edge enjoying food and drinks. You can also rent jet skies and small boats to visit Los Arcos rocks just in front of the villa. The boats will also let you feed the fish and travel to other beaches only reachable by boat.
The staff can help you set up any activity you might want to do, for example: zip lining, fishing, whale watching. Golfing, horse back riding and much more.

If a massage is what you want, you can walk up on the beach of Mismayloya or the staff will have a private one set up for you in the villa.

If you are there for a special occasion please let us know and we can make your evening dinner extra special with candle light around the pool and petals on the table.

This house is incredible! From the rooms, to the pool, to the waterfront location, everything was perfect. What truly makes this an exceptional place to stay is the staff. From the moment we walked in the door Marco, Luis and Suzy made us feel welcome and relaxed. They were kind and very accommodating. I can’t recommend this house enough!

Everything about this vacation was amazing! From the beautiful home that was both large and cozy, the super responsive host Linda prior to our stay, to the attentive Marcos who made us feel pampered and well cared for, to the always smiling and wonderful Jessy who kept the home sparkling clean to the unbelievable meals prepared by chef Manuel! It was all heavenly. I don’t usually return to vacation homes, but I know without a doubt I’ll be back at this one. Oh and we saw whales every day but twice during our 12 night stay.Thank you to the entire staff for a wonderful, relaxing and perfect end of year vacation for our family. See you again soon!

Happiest of fam times in a beautiful setting. Fantastic host and 11/10 to staff, Marco and Luis, Laura (oh the food! ) and Jess for all our housekeeping needs. Only suggestion… some screen protection for infinity pool edge and maybe a carpet in living room for tiny crawling knees. But small beer for such a wonderful, dreamy escape. Hard to leave. Just glorious!

Puerto Vallarta Villa

Villa Las Penas is a gorgeous property. Beautifully perched above the ocean and very well maintained. The staff is first class. Luis, Marco, Laura and Yesenia went above and beyond our expectations from anything we wanted to eat or drink to booking excursions for us. This property will not disappoint. We look forward to visiting this Villa again.

Great Vacations Start Here

We are always skeptical of reviews where all you hear is 5 stars and no problems. Well, Villa Las Penas is a 6 or a five star scale. The place is beautiful, the locations is spectacular, and the staff are the very best. We could not have been more pleased with every aspect of our stay and will definitely be there again.

Beyond Expectations

LS Peña’s is a stunning property with a responsive and helpful owner and full time staff that genuinely care about your comfort and making your stay special.The location is perfect for relaxing, watching the whales and Los Arcos just off your private deck, or just a short walk to a beautiful beach and a short taxi (that the staff can arrange) into town.We all had a blast, and each bedroom was as nice as the other, all with beautiful ocean views.We felt safe, private, peaceful, and close to all we wanted to do, and we can’t wait to return.Thank you Linda, Luis, Marco, Yessi, and Laura for making our stay so special!

Fabulous views and stay

The photos don't do this place justice -- when you walk in the impression is "wow." Great staff -- helpful, friendly, attentive, .. couldn't be better. Pools is quite large enough for adults and kids, also actually a hot tub for those summer nights. AC, in case you need it. Super, overall.

The Villa is lovely, spacious, and comfortable. The staff is great. The views are spectacular. Enjoyed being in view of Los Arcos and watching all the activity from poolside. A great home base to return to after exploring PV and surrounding area. Tip: bring cash; staff and many other vendors do not accept debit cards or e-payment.

We would return to this house and great staff!

We had 3 couples and we were very happy with the house and staff. We wanted to be away from PV and we loved the quiet location. The house is light filled and spacious with room for all of us to spread out. The staff is very special and made the stay even more enjoyable. The only drawback is that there is no place to walk anywhere so we missed that. Enjoyed movie night every night and loved being together and not in separate house to units.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Porter

Host profile image
My husband and I love to travel. We have been married 37 years with 3 beautiful children and three grandchildren. After 23 years I sold my dance studio and wanted to be able to have a villa that I could share with people like yourself.

Why they chose this property

The best reason to choose this property is because of the destination feeling that you get with the bright Mexican colored decor and the location overlooking the ocean. If you are there in high season (winter) you have whales, dolphins and turtles that can be watched directly from the patio. If you visit in the low season (summer) you will have breathtaking sunsets.

The best reason of all has to be said that the staff is the best in Puerto Vallarta. Luis manages the home and makes sure that all your needs are met. Marcos the houseman, will make sure that you have all the food and drinks you want before you even knew you wanted them.
The cook will prepare anything that you desire. You will tell them what you want prepared and how, they will go to the store and you only pay what the grocery bill and transportation costs. I tell everyone that you can figure on $25 per day per person and that will include all your food and drinks. That is incredible especially when you taste the food. Yesi, pronounced Jessie, will make the bed and keep the villa in tip top shape. She does her job so well that most people say the rarely saw her, that it just got magically done.

What makes this property unique

Pictures are nice but anyone who has ever visited has said that they just don't do the villa justice. When you walk through the door and your greeted by the staff, music playing, the ocean sound and the margaritas, chips and salsa waiting you know your in paradise.
