In addition, he gave us excellent recommendations on places to visit and restaurants, which made our experience even better.

Wow. We spent 10 days at Casa Danko with 4 adults and 2 four year olds… what an amazing time! Firstly, Arturo and Salvador were very gracious hosts - they were extremely friendly and welcoming and quick to respond to any requests. They had lots of hints and tips for the area and were even able to suggest a babysitter for our girls so the adults could have a night out on the town! The house is full of gorgeous art and the views are beautiful (the little hill is worth the climb to get there!) The pool is small but was very much appreciated on hot afternoons for a cool down. Highly recommend getting up early to watch the sunrise from the top deck - a beautiful cool breeze and an amazing view in the AMs! (sunsets were stunning from there too!). We can’t wait to come back! Thanks for having us!

Thank you, Lisa, for staying with us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

My friends and I had an amazing time staying at this place. It was very clean and spacious, and was located in a good spot for us to get around and do everything we had planned and more. The hosts themselves were very nice and had so many recommendations on things to do, and things to see. They were also easy to communicate with and quick with responses. No real issues with the place itself, just be prepared to walk up a hill if you are walking anywhere, which isn't an issue if you're getting rides all the time. I would easily recommend this place to others.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Danko! The views were amazing, especially from the pool, and in a perfect location. Restaurants and tiendas were very walkable. Arturo and Salvador were very responsive and fixed any issues right away! Would definitely book again for a future PV trip!!

the property was beautiful. the walk to the location is extremely hard. the walk up the hill is a bit extreme especially with the heat. for cooking, the only option was a stove top. no oven. bbq provided but no fuel. so again stove top is the o key option. the pool wasn’t the cleanest. a bit scummy on the bottom. the house is close to the highway. so it’s also very loud. and the 360 roof top patio is closer to 180 degrees. great place. but a bit pricy. no washer or dryer.
Host Response
We appreciate your feedback, which helps us continuously improve our service. We regret that the local topography may not have suited your needs, and that this is an inherent element of our privileged location, which boasts the best breezes and views in the area. We have 116 reviews indicating that the beach, restaurants, galleries, and bars are within walking distance, and that an Uber, costing only 50 pesos, is sufficient for the return trip. We have taken immediate action regarding the water in the pool. Regarding the laundry and barbecue rules, we strive to ensure the listing is completely transparent to avoid any misunderstandings during your stay. Here is what is stated in the listing: Guest Access All areas at the house are open, except for the storage room and laundry. Laundry is available upon request and at an extra cost. Barbecue is available upon request and at an extra cost for charcoal and cleaning. I recommend reviewing the complete listing details before you proceed with your booking.

Our family only spent a couple of days here, but this would be the perfect house for a long-term stay. This is a very spacious and well-appointed home. Bedrooms are huge, with high ceilings, big beds, and lots of storage space. Large outdoor patios on the second and third floors with views of the city and ocean. Location is walking distance to the boardwalk, but far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet. Hosts were very responsive and gave us a quick tour on check-in and good recommendations for dining and activities. Only note of caution is the hill. The walk down isn't bad, but anyone with mobility issues should plan on driving or taking a taxi up from the main road.

There were a few cons with the place (no fault of host's) which was load road noise, barking neighborhood dogs all night and "THAT HILL" to get to it. Some of the Uber drivers were having issues. The views were great. We had a good breeze every day and never turned on the AC. I would stay there again.
Host Response
Thank you Ryan for your feedback. The hill is a bit steep, but it’s worth it for the views and the breezes. The stray dog that was on the street has now been taken care of by an animal rescue organization in Vallarta. Thank you for your stay and we look forward to seeing you soon.

The home was beautiful and exactly how it was pictured. Our stay in Puerto Vallarta was outstanding! We are so thankful to have stayed here, and will definitely be back. Arturo and Salvador were the absolute BEST hosts anyone could ask for. Always responsive, helpful, and the most accommodatingly sweet people I have ever had the chance to stay at for an AirBnB. I could not recommend this house and them as hosts more. I would 100000% suggest them to any friends or family always wanting to visit Puerto Vallarta. Until next time ❤️

Thank you very much Trace, it was a pleasure to meet you. And I hope you'll be back soon. By the way, everything is fine here. Regards

Auturo and Salvador were absolutely amazing. They were very responsive to all our questions. Their house is funky and beautiful. The patios are amazing! The hill was no joke, which wasn’t an issue for us but my older parents couldn’t walk the hill. However they had no issues getting an uber or taxi back to the house. The views!

Our trip to Arturo Y Salvador’s was an unforgettable experience!! The space is breathtaking and worth every climb up the steep hill. There were 6 of us total and everyone shared that they felt at peace and had their own space in the stunning and roomy casa. I’ll cherish the views from the patios we had every morning and the shared meals we had using the beautiful and well stocked kitchen on the first floor. I have already recommended their home to friends for their trips in the future!!
Host Response
Sebastian, we greatly appreciate you recommending us to other clients. We hope to see you back in the near future and are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and the neighborhood, which has many new things to offer.

Arturo’s house is beautiful, very well maintained, and overall a great place to stay. It’s well located, though it sits on a steep hill. Thankfully, Ubers are fast, reliable, and very affordable, so getting around is easy. If you’re mobile and don’t have any mobility issues, the hill shouldn’t be a problem at all. I stayed here during my wedding week and hosted my parents and sisters at the house, which worked perfectly for us. Arturo was incredibly attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay, making the experience even better.
Host Response
Thank you very much Alejandro for staying with us, you and your family are very kind, we hope to see you again soon. Regards and congratulations!

Arturo's place sits on a hill but the trek up and down is so worth it as it is within walking distance to the vibrant parts of Zona Romantica. The interior decor provides a modern yet authentic, cultural experience. Arturo is very friendly and provided great recommendations for dining and activities in the area. Such a great value, my friends and I loved it!
Host Response
Hi Albert, thank you so much for staying with us and enjoying our hospitality. We hope to have you back soon.

Loved the house, with nice views of the hills to the West. Host very responsive to any questions or concerns. A steep walk up to the house, but easily accessible to affordable taxis/Uber if taking groceries. Patios are nice places to relax, but the noise from the main road below can be distracting.

Arturo and Salvador are lovely hosts. Ultra responsive and even offered us cilantro from their own kitchen. The place is spacious. Lots of room to move around and the bedrooms and terraces easily accommodate many guests. The kitchen is large and bright. The plants and art are lovely. The location is good, in the Zona Romantica and within a 15-minute walk of the beach. However, you can easily hear a nearby highway and loud music on weekends. The house is a short walk up quite a steep hill. Overall, I had a good stay, but the house needs maintenance and was missing expected features. For example, the pool had to be cleaned, some lightbulbs were burnt out, an AC unit leaked, tiles are loose, and one of the showers did not work well. Things are worn. For the cost, I would also expect better pillows (really bad) and linens, side tables in the main bedroom, and shampoo/body wash. Finally, the hosts had installed motion sensors that shut off the AC at night, which is not acceptable.
Host Response
Hi Matthew, all the features the house has are listed in the description. I would recommend that if you have a special request or need something that is not described in the description, you request it in advance and we will gladly provide it. The pool and terrace are cleaned daily, however there is a tree that in winter drops leaves and they float in the water. The house has 122 spotlights and we detected that only 2 were burned out, which were not reported to us during your stay. The air conditioning and the Venetian tiles in the bathroom have already been fixed. We will take into account your recommendation to improve the pillows and sheets. There are amenities that we do not include to maintain a Villa for 8 people at a very reasonable price. One of our qualities is that we attend to any deficiency immediately, since we live next to the house, which was indicated to you at the time of your arrival; unfortunately we did not receive any report during your stay. Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us to be ranked as Guest Favorites for the relationship we manage regarding quality, price and immediate service. Attention to any deficiency is our priority and is immediate as endorsed by 113 comments prior to yours.

Salvador and Arturo were fantastic hosts and the pictures don’t lie- their home commands incredible views at the top of the hill! The art throughout the home is wonderful to take in as the breeze cools you on the veranda. We hiked down to the boardwalk and back each day with a 5 and 6 year old no problem. Their 72 year old grandmother preferred to Uber but that was a breeze, literally no more than a 3 minute wait. The kitchen was well appointed and Salvador was a great communicator- always there when we had a question . We had a great week and hope to be back!

Hi Nathaniel, thank you very much for your feedback and we hope to see you back soon. We sent them a strong cuddle.

Arturo y Salvador were some of the kindest hosts I’ve ever had. They took the time to show us around the place and make us feel comfortable. They were very relaxed and gave us tons of advice and recommendations on the area. Responded proactively or quickly if we had any questions. As a young group traveling, it was important that we felt safe and we felt completely secure in this space. It was a beautiful area and the people were all very warm. We would happily stay here again during our next visit to PV.

Very walkable area and uber goes up the slight hill as well so there’s flexibility in terms of transportation depending on your mobile comfort levels. We walked mostly everywhere, and occasionally took an uber to certain locations. Arturo was a great host, very responsive and super resourceful with providing restaurants and excursion recommendations. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommended it to others as well.

One of the most beautiful homes I’ve ever stayed in! I absolutely loved everything about this place—from the perfect location to the stunning art throughout the property, and the lush greenery views that made it feel like the perfect getaway. The space itself was so thoughtfully and beautifully designed—it felt like a dream to wake up there every day. Arturo y Salvador were truly the best Airbnb hosts I’ve ever had! They went above and beyond with amazing recommendations for restaurants, local shows, and even activities outside of Puerto Vallarta. Their hospitality made our trip even more special. Can’t wait to come back!!!!

Our stay at Casa Danco in Puerto Vallarta was absolutely wonderful! The fully equipped kitchen was perfect for preparing our own meals, which we appreciated. The rooftop dip pool was a highlight - ideal for cooling off after soaking up the sun. We were especially grateful for the excellent air conditioning that kept us comfortable while sleeping - this was really important to us. The views from the property were simply incredible, and we loved being surrounded by all the beautiful plants. Our host Arturo deserves special mention for being so responsive and friendly throughout our stay. Would definitely book again and highly recommend Casa Danco to anyone visiting Puerto Vallarta!

We traveled to PV with our adult children and could not be happier with our stay at Casa Danko. We chose this beautiful home for its authentic feel, much cozier than other options. Beautiful artwork at every turn. Space was great due to private areas for all and each bedroom w/private bath. 3 floors to spread out on! Centrally located, we explored both south and north from our home base via walking, bus and Uber. Walked downtown Zone Romantica daily. Yummy food, street tacos, bakeries, etc. We are in fair shape and able to manage the hill to the home without problem. We chose the road route rather than the steps and it was fine. Highlights were Los Arcos National Park boat tour/snorkeling, hiking from Boca de Tomatlon to Las Animas -4 gorgeous non-crowded beaches along the way, deep-sea fishing trip out of Marina Vallarta (booked thru "Captain Pete", great experience), laid back beach day at Bucerias. Our hosts Arturo & Salvador were superb, checking in occ. w/us to assure all well

This house is an absolute gem! Nestled at the top of a hill, it offers stunning views of the town and partially the ocean. The space itself is funky, open-air, and full of character, with amazing terraces and rooftops that make it feel like your own private paradise. Each bedroom has AC, which is a huge plus, and the host is incredibly responsive and helpful. We walked every morning for 5 minutes to the local market to get fresh fruit, vegetables and juices. It is close enough to the nightlife that you can walk there in 10 minutes but far enough that you can have a peaceful night of sleep afterwards. A heads-up for future guests—there are a lot of stairs, so it may not be ideal for those with mobility issues, but if you can handle the climb, it's 100% worth it. I would absolutely stay here again the next time I’m in Puerto Vallarta! Highly recommend! 🙌🏽🌴✨

Very easy to deal with. Accommodating with requests. Place is a grand old school Mexican home. Seems to be continuing updating. New fridge, beds are good, secure. Great for 2 couples. Private huge sunny deck on the roof. Pool is small, enough for a quick dip, no laps. Be aware the hill IS steep and long but taxis are easy to get home. 50 pesos. View is generally to the north east, up the valley. Yes, there is traffic, but it is a noisy Mexican neighborhood below, so generally blends in with the city noise. It’s quieter at night. And the neighborhood below is authentic. Packed full of fresh veggies and REAL Mexican food. Good and cheap. Friendly locals.

We absolutely loved staying at this home as a family with two older teens. The space was very large and the rooftop is just incredible. We loved walking everywhere and felt immersed in the local culture. Arturo and Salvatore were wonderful hosts. This is a house with open air areas, so it is hard to keep the inside super clean. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very clean and the AC much appreciated, although more to reduce the city noise at night than for the temperature. The breeze off the mountains is wonderful. We were able to cook our breakfast each morning and buy produce at the market just down the stairs. The neighbors were friendly. This is a house for fit people, with lots of uneven stairs or a hill to walk up. The inside has lots of stairs as well and would not be safe for very small children. It was perfect for our active family and we hope to return!

Thank you, Christy, we would love to have you and your family back soon.

The most stunning views ever! Windows, French doors, and sliding glass doors allowing access to multiple balconies and seating areas. We also thoroughly enjoyed the gorgeous plants, artwork, and fresh flower arrangements that made it feel extra special. I loved the large shaded seating area with comfortable couches that I don’t think is pictured. It was a perfect place to read. We also enjoyed taking a quick dip to cool off on hot afternoons. Views towards the ocean to see the skyline, sunset colors, and nightly fireworks. Arturo was always responsive with any question I had.

We stayed just over a week and had a wonderful time. Arturo was very attentive when we had questions about the areas restaurants and transportation options. The hill going up to the house is steep. Walking down was fine and after exploring the town, getting a Uber back was very easy and affordable and they tend to know the area better than taxis. What really stood out for me were the views and the shower off the master bedroom

Wonderful. Great place in very nice safe and quiet location. The property is very spacious and comfortable with ice cold AC. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to use the pool on the roof. There’s lots of amazing restaurants within 2 minute walking distance. Casita & Garden sushi has incredible sushi/saki, I highly recommend. Cafe 449, Mi Cafe and El Brujo are also great. Arturo is very friendly and helpful responsive host. The villa is perched atop a hill with absolutely stunning views. You can take an Uber/taxi for quick easy access or just walk up the road. The bonus for us was there’s also 196 stairs leading up the hill. This was a wonderful way to burn calories during vacation. I’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely stay at this large villa. The place was clean. Small fireworks every night because of the pirate tour nearby. A wonderful view from both terraces. Proximity to Mexican life. There was no bbq as mentioned in the listing. The coast to get there is quite intense to climb but we discovered the steps that lead straight to the market so one less coast to climb. Otherwise taxis are very useful for returning home. The place is noisy due to nearby traffic and the dog who barks in the evening but we still manage to sleep.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Danko. The pool and roof top lounge area were highlights of our stay. The bedrooms were great, AC in all rooms.. but not really needed due to the nice breeze that comes through with the windows open. The hills/stairs are no joke but are manageable. Easy to get an Uber back up if you don’t want the cardio. The spectacular views are so worth the climb! Arturo was an excellent host with great communication, welcome package material & recommendations for the area. The neighborhood is vibrant and filled with lots of great restaurants, bars, fresh fruit and vegetable markets. Everything you need for an amazing trip very close by. Thank you Arturo for welcoming us into your place we will definitely return!

The house is as advertised. We were pretty impressed with the architecture and art work. The house is very spacious. The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms have a lot of storage space. The location to multiple restaurants just steps away was fantastic. The local market Mercado Municipal Emiliano Zapata was amazing for fruits and vegetables, fresh guacamole, etc. The Malecon at the beach is 10-15 minute walk to more great restaurants and shops. The house has great sitting areas to view the mountains and a side view to the ocean. We went on the roof pool area a couple of times just to view the sunset. As others have mentioned there is a steep hill to climb if you are walking. It was difficult at first but after doing it over 2 weeks it was a breeze. The only real issue is the noise outside. Constant traffic, dogs barking, rooster crowing in the valley below takes away some of the beauty of the location. Other than this, we would rate this AIrBNB high.

Hi Andrew thank you for staying with us and also about your very kind comments and suggestions. We will take it in consideration to make more pleasant the next stay for our clients.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Danko. The house has lots of space indoors and out with beautiful vistas. It was a short walk to the market area and the Romantic Zone. The house is located at the top of a steep street, but we were able to walk it easily back and forth at least twice a day. Getting there by Uber or taxi is very inexpensive. I would advise anyone using Uber to put in Alta Vista after the street address so the GPS will select going to this house since there appear to be multiple addresses with the same street number and name throughout different parts of Mexico. Lastly, we had a great night out with our host Arturo. We highly recommend him as a host.

We loved the place! Amazing views and within walking distance to Zona Romántica neighborhood felt pretty safe and was really easy to be picked up by Uber. It’s up a steep hill so probably not ideal for older folks or really young kids but other than that the house is a gem. We would definitely recommend it.
Host Response
Thanks Cristhian we appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again in Casa Danko.

We really enjoyed our stay at Arturo's. The location is wonderful, walking distance to everything there is to see in Zona Romantica and the surrounding area. Great views and several balconies/rooftops to hang out at. Easy to get Ubers to go anywhere else you'd want to go and when we rented a car for a day we were able to park in the provided spot next to the house. Thank you Arturo!

Arturo and Salvador were wonderful hosts during our week+ stay. Friendly and responsive to any questions or issues. The home is full of charm on a scenic hill out of the hubbub of town, but easily walkable to most attractions. Loved the authentic neighborhood and the view of the sea and mountains. Fair warning, the view comes at a price -- a very steep climb that is tricky for older guests or children. Taxis help, but we found some drivers were annoyed at us for taking them up a steep winding road. Generous tips help. Very clean, furniture comfortable and outdoor spaces were amazing. Two honest areas of feedback: 1. Kitchen is sparse in terms of amenities (no oven, no toaster) and gear (limited utensils, dishes, glasses). Not ideal for cooking, so prepare to eat out. 2. Home is not suitable for very young children. Lots of steeps stairs, hard surfaces, little area to play. Bottom line: Lovely space ideal for adults, young families might consider other more convenient options.

Hi Evan, thanks for your comments we will add kitchen utensils and a toaster. Regards

We were 3 couples staying for a few days before going to our AI resort. We were all impressed with how much room the house had. The roof top patio was a great place to hang out and take in the views. The place was clean. Great location with many tasty restruants at the bottom of the hill and it is only a 10 minute walk to the beach and malecon. We would hit the markets for fresh fruit and coffee eqch morning. Although fairly ateep, the walk up the hill isnt all bad.

If you’re looking to stay somewhere close to everything in Puerto Vallarta, this is THE place to stay at. It’s so close to the markets, restaurants, and there’s even some clothing stores within walking distance. You can even walk to the beach as well! The house itself is insanely beautiful, even better than the pictures. It’s so big and the location is just perfect. Arturo and Salvador were super responsive and happy to help. 10/10 would recommend staying here!

Words cannot describe ourexperience. The house was absolutely magnificent and so well decorated. Everywhere we looked there was another detail that we didn't see before. the outdoor spaces made for hours of conversation and the house has so many breezeways that we only used the AC one day. The hills to the house are very steep but my 78 yr old aunt was able to walk down them without an issue (we caught an uber/taxi back). Arturo and Salvador were so helpful and responsive. I would absolutely stay here again (in fact, we were sad to leave).

Arturo and Salvador are the best! The house is immaculate. Huge and on one of the highest hills in the area. The views and the home are even better than the photos. Arturo and Salvador also went above and beyond to accommodate us when a friend of mine from our trip missed her flight and was stuck in Mexico alone for an extra night. They were extremely gracious throughout our inevitable hiccups (which are likely during any trip with 5 ladies). We felt extremely safe between their hospitality and that of the neighbors. Just stay here!! You won’t regret it.

We loved our stay at Arturo and Salvador's. The views were amazing and the house was very comfortable. We loved that each room had it's own bathroom and the rooftop was a beautiful place to sit and relax. We really enjoyed the pool as well! The beds were all very comfortable and it was nice to have the AC available. I will say it can get noisy outside during the night, with the traffic so I would recommend bringing ear plugs if you're a light sleeper like myself. Arturo and Salvador were very friendly and always responsive to our messages and made great local recommendations for restaurants! I would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing time at Arturo and Salvador’s beautiful home. They were gracious and friendly hosts, gave us great local recommendations and made our stay very enjoyable. The place is even better in person, it’s super unique, spacious and clean. It is in an excellent location right in the romantic zone, walkable to everything in the area, as long as you’re up for some stair climbing or uphill walking. Didn’t bother us one bit and it’s worth the views! The beds were super comfy and everything felt very clean. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again. Gracias por todos!

A lovely, comfortable home with lots of space. We stayed here with our adult children and their partners and found there were several good areas to hang out together, but never felt like we were on top of each other. The beds were comfy and the water filtration system was super convenient. Many resaturants, shops, and the beach within walking distance and we enjoyed exploring and coming back to a restful, relatively quiet space. The hill that the home sits on affords fantastic views, but is definitely a steep climb and would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. That said, it is pretty easy to get a taxi or uber back up the hill if you aren't up for the climb. The house is really amazing and has fabulous art pieces throughout. It could use some refreshing/updating but is really wonderful.

A beautiful place to stay with a large group or family. Each room has its own bathroom plus a toilet in the laundry room and bathroom and shower on the roof, so everyone can get ready at the same time. Having AC in the rooms was awesome for the really hot days, but we barely needed it with how easy it is to get a breeze going. The pool on the roof was great for cooling off from the sun and the views into the valley are incredible. The filtered water tap was super handy! The home felt very secure with gates and locks for the entrances and we felt safe in the area. A bit of a short steep walk up to the house, but it's over before you know it. Cabs and Ubers are also very cheap if you want to skip the hill. There are some great food stands and restaurants just a few blocks from the bottom of the hill too!

This place is amazing. When you stay here, you are at once in the middle of everything in the Zona Romantica but you are also on the edge of town with amazing fresh breezes and incredible views. We felt like we won the lottery staying here and we would come back anytime. This house has all the character of a real home, it’s not a prefab brand new condo. It’s much more luxurious and authentic. I almost don’t want anyone else to book it so that I can keep booking it all the time for myself. But alas, life is not so…

Right from the start, Arturo and Salvador were responsive to our booking request as well as my endless questions. The villa itself is located on a very private street on the edge of Zona Romantica where you are nearby to not only all the touristy areas, good eateries but also the local neighborhoods. There are many local markets nearby where you can buy fresh fruits and veggies every day. There also is a cool vendor’s market along the river where you can pick up your souvenoirs at the best prices. The house itself is on a hill with great views of the valley towards the mountains as well as the town and beach. The house is full of unique features and great art. The house is sunny and open with a fresh breeze always passing though. The walk up the hill does give you some cardio but it was not an issue for anyone in our party. I would recommend their place for anyone looking for a unique place to stay in a great area.

This is such a suitable home for a family and/or large group. Every bedroom has its very own shower/toilet & the view at the mid section & the rooftop are unbelievable. The pool & area for rooftop dining was frequently used - I could honestly live there. Yes, there is a steep drive up to the home & it was a bit difficult for my elder mom to walk, but ultimately doable. Ubers do arrive periodically. The walk down to the romantic zone was just perfect & there is a daily market that my parents frequently visited too. The hosts were available as needed & did a great job at creating the home hospitable with pretty much anything you would need for a PVcation. I would highly recommend this place for a variety of reasons including those listed above. Thank you Arturo & Salvador & of course Bella y Mia (doggies). I appreciate your space & efforts.

If you like character houses, Casa Bruno is fabulous! In addition to the beautiful view of the mountains, and the cottage on the top floor, it has several details and art that make it very interesting. The beds are very comfortable, each of the rooms has privacy and its own bathroom. You have everything you need to have a great time with your family. Nos Encanto! Also our host Arturo was always attentive to everything we needed. In our case, we decided to rent a car and it was the best option to be able to mobilize with my family, which includes seniors. The house has a space to park it so that made it easy. If you decide to manage you must be prepared to climb the mountaine at the Casa Bruno. The house is in the Zona Romantica of Puerto Vallarta so everything is very close. Arturo gave us great suggestions of restaurants where to eat. We would have liked to stay longer, everything was great! Thank you very much Arturo, you are an excellent host!

We enjoyed our stay. The walk up to the house js basically hiking up a mountain. We managed ok with a 6 year old and 10 year old. Anyone older or with any walking issues would have a difficult time here unless an Uber or taxi gives you a ride up. The rooftop pool is amazing. The house us very big, very spacious and A/C in all bedrooms. The views are breathtaking. It’s centralized enough so that you can walk all of downtown and the romantic zone:

I’d like to start off with the owners of the house, they made us feel very welcomed and loved which was a very great start to our Puerto Vallarta trip. The house was super big and spacious and the ac came in very handy for the hot/humid weather. Aside from the house being at the top of some hills the view and location were just perfect! A lot of activities we did were only 5-10 mins on Uber and ranged around $5-$7 which was super convenient for us. DEFINITELY WOULD RECOMMEND THIS HOUSE TO ANYONE WHO IS TRAVELING TO PUERTO VALLARTA AND IS LOOKING FOR A VERY BEAUTIFUL AND AFFORDABLE HOUSE.
