My family and I visited Puerto Vallarta for the first time, and we could not have picked a better home for our stay! The views were impeccable and the rooms were very large and comfortable. The pool was perfect after walking up the PV hills. They even had board games and puzzles to keep us entertained during the rainy hours. Maricela and David were very helpful and friendly. We’ve stayed in many AirBNBs but this is definitely one of our top three! The home is close to many stores, restaurants and yet still has a local neighborhood feel. We loved our stay and waking up the beautiful views of Puerto Vallarta!

One of the best Airbnbs I've ever stayed in. Comfortable, beautiful house that my friends and I felt right at home. Amazing views, we loved the pool. Only downside was mentioned in other reviews, because you're up on the hill in a local neighborhood, there are roosters in the early mornings and sometimes dogs barking at different times. We also had one morning where a neighbor was blaring their music at 6am for about 2 hours. And although these things were a bit annoying at the time, we loved this house so much, it didn't matter at all. We would all stay again in the future.

My group of 6 friends has an incredible week stay. From the start Maisie had wonderful, immediate communication helping us plan everything from airport pick up, to planning a cooked meal by Nena upon arrival and making reservations and planning excursions. The location is perfect as it’s just far enough from the best part of PVR which is so fun and vibrant—yet when you are in the Villa, it is a completely serene, beautiful view and feel. As mentioned it’s up a hill, but do not let that deter anyone as uber rides are only minutes away and available for only a few US dollars to bring you up (or down) the hill—but it’s this location that gives the most fabulous views! We WILL be back, and I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else…

Everything you need for your stay in PV! House itself is an amazing location. Easy walk down to many restaurants/shopping and beach. I would recommend to call an Uber back up as it is very steep. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The host is also very responsive and had great recommendations. The views are absolutely amazing, both at night and throughout the day. Kitchen has everything you need, and even have a grill where we cooked up a meal one day. Would definitely come back and recommend, definitely worth the price. Thanks again for making our trip even more memorable.

This home couldn’t have been more perfect for my birthday getaway with family! Being able to be out and about in Vallarta then come back to relax at the house when we felt like it wether in the pool, playing games at the dinner table, or on the couch streaming football from being able to login to my app subscription was great. Definitely up a steep hill that meant taking an uber downhill for my parents as walking isn’t easy for them, but Ubers were plentiful and it was extremely easy to do! All instructions and communication was friendly, clear, easy and quick before, during and after our stay. Definitely would stay here again and highly recommend it!

Our stay at Villa Nellcôte was absolutely unforgettable. David was an exceptional host—attentive, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Marisela was an absolute delight and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The villa itself is pure magic. Perched high above the Zona Romantica, the views are breathtaking—bay, ocean, jungle, and twinkling city lights all in one frame. Every corner of the home radiates warmth and character, from the dramatic pool and beautiful cupolas to the chef’s kitchen stocked with everything you could possibly need. We spent our mornings sipping coffee on the terrace, our afternoons lounging by the pool, and our evenings watching the sun set over the bay. The beds were heavenly, the linens luxurious, and the entire space spotless and comfortable. This is Puerto Vallarta at its finest—private, peaceful, and full of soul. We can’t wait to return!

We had a great stay at Maisie's place - easily one of the nicest and best equipped airbnbs we have stayed in thus far. Maisie was super responsive even despite a large time difference. We loved the pool, the views, the lush surroundings, and all the extras that were available for us to use including beach/pool towels, shower essentials, and everything you could ever need in the kitchen. The outdoor space is fantastic and beds could not have been more comfortable. Highly recommend & hope to return some time in the near future! Thank you for everything!

We had such a delightful stay here at this beautiful property. It’s right within walking distance of downtown, but perched in the hills so you have a view of the whole city. The house itself has everything you need and then some — one of the most beautiful homes I’ve ever visited *or* stayed in. We will be back before end of year!

Our stay at Maisie’s place was amazing! We did have a little bit of a tough time finding it at first but that was completely my fault for not remembering the instructions about the specific location/cross streets. Once we found it, it was super easy to tell other drivers. The house was absolutely spectacular! The views were amazing and we were greeted with beers and the most delicious chips & guac by David. Getting an Uber down the hill was SO easy and about $3 each way! The housekeeper Marisela was so wonderful and did our laundry when needed. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a private home with an amazing kitchen and views that are to die for. It really was better than we could have imagined. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

I am so happy we chose to stay here. Maisie and her team went above and beyond for our stay. The place was so beautiful and welcoming. we felt safe the entire time with 4 young women. We reached out before hand and had the most delicious guac, ceviche and salsa ready for us. And, they also cooked us breakfast one morning. I cannot emphasize this enough- it was the most delicious meal we had in Mexico. They were very responsive. I would recommend staying here to anyone.

The home was absolutely perfect with 2 exceptions: 1. the neighbor’s chickens and roosters made noise constantly, which made it hard to sleep and 2. there were 2 hot tubs but the 1 by the pool didn’t work and the 1 on the rooftop was dirty when we arrived, though it was cleaned the next morning. Other than that, the home is awesome. It is exactly as pictured with a great mix of local charm and modern conveniences. The bedrooms all had on-suite bathrooms and beautiful domed ceilings. There was functioning air conditioning in all the rooms, and the pool and terrace had amazing views. It was also not too far of a walk to the main strip. Highly recommend, and would definitely stay there again!
Host Response
Thanks for the helpful feedback! We can’t do anything about the roosters that roam the streets but I will speak with the pool man immediately. The downstairs jacuzzi is set to be a cold plunge but there is no excuse for the upstairs one not being clean. I’m glad you enjoyed the house otherwise

Best Airbnb ever. Period. We booked Maisie’s place for my bachelorette, a beautiful Airbnb with character which looks even better than the photos and has breathtaking views! Maisie connected us with David (the property manager) prior to our arrival. David, Nene and the rest of the home staff were incredibly kind, hospitable and responsive, they even welcomed us with fresh chips/guac/salsa and complimentary pop and beers. David and Nene even supported my friends with planning a private surprise dinner for me. My friends and I gushed on every single day about how amazing this place is, thanks for having us and I’m looking forward to being back to this home when I’m back in PV again!!!!

HIGHLY recommend this spot. can't express how much we all loved it. David is awesome!! super responsive and helpful. he made our experience seamless. we were greeted with fresh guacamole and salsa, in addition to the groceries we pre-ordered via david. everything was spotless upon arrival and even cleaned mid-stay with laundry! we split the 3 beds between 6 women and didn't have an issue with space. note that it is up on the hill so it's a bit of a hike up, but ubers are readily available and super cheap. close to many great spots in zona romantica. thank you!!

It’s hard to even describe the magic of this villa. I obviously saw all of the listing photos but walking in and seeing that view for the first time is something I will always remember. This was my family’s first vacation together in over 10 years and this Airbnb truly made our trip❤️

Overall our stay was outstanding. If you are a light sleeper bring earplugs and an eye mask! Bedrooms are very bright and the neighbor's roosters and dogs can keep you up beginning as early as 2am. The interrupted sleep was the only complaint from our group. Aside from that the home was emaciate. We sat in the pool and whale watched during the day and had sunset cocktails at night. The pool gets sun around 3pm, so we would sunbathe or have a dance party on the rooftop terrace before making our way down for margs and pooltime. Plenty of beautiful covered outdoor space for the non sun seakers too! We ate out quite a bit but also used the kitchen & grill at least once a day which was lovely. The neighborhood is a beautiful balance of other vacationers and locals alike. We are a very active group so honestly we enjoyed the climb up from the downtown area and beaches. Just an FYI, PV is heavily cash only, so I recommend ordering Pesos from your bank beforehand. Maisie & the team 10/10!

We loved this house. I was traveling with my husband, two sons (8 + 10) and my parents. The house is exactly as described, beautiful and comfortable. As someone who owns an inn, I have become acutely attuned to cleanliness and small details (much to my own annoyance sometimes! 🙂)— this house is absolutely well cared for and thoughtfully put together. It is on a steep hill, so was a little difficult walking for my parents, but they still managed and we made the walk into town many times. Would happily return here.

The villa will meet or exceed every expectation. The indoor/outdoor living room provides expensive views of the bay and the hills. From there you are steps from the pool and an outdoor living room and patio table. Truly a chef's kitchen with six burner gas range, Sub Zero fridge and everything anyone would need to prepare meals. The bedrooms each have A/C and ensuite baths. We also rented the Casita which was great for the couple tucked in there. I was in the primary with expansive windows and cross breeze so no AC needed there either. The above and beyonds are the authentic and stylish Mexican decor and art yet with all the modern conveniences. You are greeted by David on arrival. We had a special request to have the house stocked with groceries. David did all the shopping for a modest fee. Marisela, your housekeeper, had fresh guacamole, pico and chips waiting for us. Maisie is responsive at all times. Five star plus.

Our recent stay at Villa Necôte was incredible! The villa was gorgeous, spotless and well equipped, comfortable and private. The pool was the perfect temperature for a group of Canadians seeking respite from the heat! David was excellent and responsive for any questions, and Marisela was kind, professional and helpful. The location was perfect for access to ZR and the beach - it was easy to find the stairs but also easy to Uber/cab as well. We felt very safe in the area and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Maisie and David's Villa is absolutely idyllic. The house was impeccably clean and beautifully designed, making it a perfect retreat. The views from the pool/balcony were stunning and where we spent much of our time - it was the perfect backdrop for relaxation and unwinding after a day of exploring. The location was fantastic—just a short walk to Zona Romantica, the beach, and nearby restaurants. The hosts were incredibly helpful, insightful and responsive throughout the booking process and the duration of our stay. We can't recommend this place enough and can't imagine staying anywhere else!

You’ll have no regrets booking this place. It’s walkable to the Zona Romantica, and easy to get an Uber if you don’t want to walk. The whole space is gorgeous and impeccably designed. We spent hours every day in the pool or on the patio - you can’t beat the view! Maisie and the house manager, David, were very helpful, responsive and accommodating. The homemade pico de gallo and guacamole at check in was a great touch. I would stay here again in an instant.

BEAUTIFUL AIRBNB! The views were amazing, we basically spent every day at the pool! The house was more than enough space for all six of us. Not to mention the staff working at the house was extremely friendly and would go above and beyond for us! The only thing to be aware of is that it’s a STEEP walk up and down the hill so I would highly recommend taking an Uber.

This house was perfect for our group of friends visiting PV and the surrounding areas. We were greeted by David, some homemade guacamole and pico as well as some beverages. David was an amazing help and very communicative. There was a housekeeper who came during the week making this airbnb almost feel like a hotel. The house was situated in a safe neighborhood atop a steep hill. It is possible to walk down to the neighborhood of zona romantica with plentiful food and bars to visit. There is a stunning view of the ocean and the city of PV from the living room. AC was available in all rooms. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very clean. The accompanying casita was spacious, comfortable and just a few steps from the front door.

Maisie and David's place was absolutely breathtaking from the moment we arrived. The view of PV and the bay is truly unbeatable from up on the hill while still being walkable to the main town. The house is filled with charm and personality and our group of six had more than enough space. Pool was gorgeous and well heated to be refreshing during the day and not too cold at night. All in all, was the perfect mix of homey and luxurious. On top of it all Maisie and team were incredible helpful and responsive: from fresh snacks ready upon arrival, to great local recommendations, and multiple visits from the housekeeper for cleaning and laundry, we felt well taken care of. Overall, this was an incredible experience and would highly recommend over the resort route, which we've done on previous trips to PV. Would absolutely stay here again!

Very comfortable and clean home with absolutely stunning views. Perfect for an adult getaway, esp if you plan to stay in most of the time with the connected pool & living room spaces + a great kitchen for cooking. Steep (but doable) walk to town. Each of the spacious bedrooms has a great bathroom. No town noises but there are roosters to wake you up!

Our group felt honored and privileged to stay at this breath taking villa. Every aspect of it was amazing from the beautiful decorations to the amazing views from every window. We all loved how the outdoors was brought indoors in every room. As we spent most of our days just enjoying the villa playing cards and hanging out in the pool since the weather we had was absolutely perfect. The kitchen is the most fully stocked kitchen of any vacation rental we have ever encountered. ?Cooking meals was very easy as you had all the utensils at your finger tips. All of the bed rooms were spacious along with the attached bathrooms to each. We never had any issues with anything in the villa. It was easy to find but I will say we hired a van service to take us to and from the airport and the driver knew where he was going. In the area it is walking distance to down town Romantic area where you can find anything and everything. It is a steep walk coming back up but uber and taxi is cheep.

This spot truly tops my list of vacation rentals I plan to return to in the future. A truly stunning & spacious home with amazing amenities that kept our group busy debating whether to stay in (and make use of the amazing pool, hot tub, TV room, board games and chef’s kitchen) or go out and explore. We did both - and luckily, the house is located in a safe neighborhood that’s walkable to all the great restaurants, bars, shopping and the beach. Maisie and David were both incredibly helpful and responsive before and during our stay. We also had the opportunity to have absolutely delicious meals prepared by Nena which made the trip even more special. And for the bit of time in which some of us had to work, the WiFi was reliable. I am so excited to recommend this location to friends visiting PV and can’t wait to return myself. I can’t recommend highly enough!

The property was lovely. The views were phenomenal. Marisela coming by to do laundry and clean up was an added bonus. There are roosters that are active in the morning. Im a heavy sleeper and early riser so it was not a concern, but if that is not the case for others- bring earplugs. Overall the site was everything promised and more.

Maisie, David, and Marisela make a great team for hosting. Maisie and David are proactive in making sure that your stay starts the right way and Maricela does a fantastic job keeping the space clean. The location is nestled up in the hills which grants excellent views. It is a bit of a steep but short hike into town. Cab rides are short and inexpensive for those who wished to skip the hike and a nice pool to cool off awaited those who didn't.

Host and house manager were incredibly communicative and responsive! Within minutes of a message the house manager would show up to remedy anything that came up! They were incredibly flexible with both check in and check out which made things very easy for us. The instructions to get to the place and recommendations for things in the area were very helpful. The space itself was beautiful. The pool and overlook of the city were the highlights. The rooms were spacious and beautiful as well. The house was kept spotless with regular visits of the maid who did an amazing job and did our clothes as well. The only small thing to note was that it can get quite loud early in the morning with the nearby roosters and dogs. I personally didn't hear it in my room with the AC (which was also great), but some of our group benefitted from earplugs to sleep in more. I'd highly recommend the host and the place for anyone visiting!

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay in Puerto Vallarta! Whole house was lovely and the outdoor area was private and had an amazing view of the city. Relatively easy to get done to the romantic zone. The drive up the hill was always a thrill! 😆 Our only hang up was that the internet was down in the area due to recent hurricane, but Maisie was super responsive and worked quickly to diagnose the issue and get it fixed. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

It’s rare to find a home that blends modern functionality and Mexican Charm so well, but Maisie’s jungle villa did just that. We used the home for a family vacation and it gave us the perfect gathering spot to spend quality time with one another and take in the panoramic views from every direction. Beyond the villa itself, Maisie made a wonderful host. She was communicative and kind. The Airbnb was meticulously prepared for guests with snacks, toiletries, a guide with a wealth of knowledge and resources. Our cleaning lady Marisela and house manager David were also delightful and it almost made us forget that this was an Airbnb and not a hotel! Overall, we wouldn’t hesitate to book the Villa again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing vacation home in Puerto Vallarta.

When we walked in, the view is what you see—million dollar view! It’s gorgeous. You are up in the hills and the pool is right off the living room— the glass doors slide into the wall and completely open up to the pool. It’s very private and we spent tons of time in the pool. Everything was great. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked some meals there— I finally made molé! Bedrooms were lovely and large with lots of storage to unpack. The main shower was great, made for two with a stained glass window. It is walkable to get around to some extent. The roads are steep and cobblestone and not easy to walk on but we found stairs that led to downtown which we took a few times. Uber is cheap and easy, they come quickly so that’s a great way to get around. We rented a car to explore the larger area and we had a parking spot for it in front of the garage. We stayed two weeks and had many adventures. Note that you will be woken up by roosters, chickens are everywhere!

We had high hopes for this lovely villa, and they were exceeded in every way. The house is truly spacious and welcoming. The outdoor terrace and pool are gorgeous on their own, but coupled with the staggering view of the bay and the delightful sunsets we hardly wanted to leave this magical place. The kitchen is fit for a chef (we had two in our group) and they gave it top marks. The cleaner came every other day and did laundry and even made guacamole for us! The villa is situated up the hill in Zona Romantica which requires about ten minutes to walk down into town. Walking back up can be tricky for those with less mobility, but a taxi ride from the center of town is less than $5. We rented a large SUV and there was room in the driveway to park it. The separate casita was perfect for our young niece who wanted her own space. A well deserved 5 stars for this property and its owner.

The kitchen is fantastic for chefs and we had everything we needed, including towels, linens, shampoo/soap, and paper products. The villa is only a 5 min walk to all of the Zona Romantica restaurants, and a cheap Uber ride back up the mountain. We will definitely consider staying here again the next time we visit PV!

Great place. Loved our stay and would definitely stay again. Only drawbacks are that whole the location is close to the romantic zone, it is a bit of a hike up if going by foot. The beds were also rather small (doubles I'm guessing). I think upgrading to king beds would make a big difference for some groups.

Beautiful location in mountain neighborhood with million dollar views! A bit of a vigorous walk from town/ Romantic Zone so not recommended for elderly/disabled/small children. We walked down and ubered back. Beautifully furnished in traditional Mexican style with lots of interesting architectural details. In a lively neighborhood, wake to the sounds of local roosters and pups. Didn’t use the pool as temperatures were somewhat cool but a relaxing and enjoyable area. Spacious and well-outfitted kitchen. Great guidebook although links to places would be helpful to confirm if still open and hours of operation .

We loved the house! The views are incredible and the house is decorated, so fun. I asked if an iron was available, and they made sure to have one there . There were delicious snacks upon arrival, which was so thoughtful. We also rented the Casita which we wish was more connected to the home, and the AC didn't work. But we also didn't contact the houe manager about it. I bet if we had, he would have fixed it. We tried to look for extra blankets and couldn't find any, but again our fault for not reaching out. The only bummer was the pool was too cold to get in. But overall we LOVED it and actually talked about staying there again when we return to PV!

Most of us travel a lot for work and play and agreed that the place was just the best. We utilized the guest house and with the main house it was a perfect fit for 5 single guys (each getting our own bed). We also utilized the chef the host referred us to for a very special dinner for 7. I think we’d all stay here again … Also, super close to the nightlife and the beach scene.

Not enough positive things can be said about our stay at the villa. It met everything, and surpassed, our checklist for the perfect vacation. It is ideal for a couple, or couples, and definitely for a couple with a couple of 21-year-olds. The suite down below was perfect for added privacy. Every suite was beautiful, and the home decor was enchanting. Oh, and we never turned the tv on once, as the view was memorizing. And the kitchen ... oh my goodness. To die for. They had every appliance/gadget you possibly could need to make the most elaborate meal ... and cookbooks on hand to make sure your meal would be top notch. Their suggestions for restaurants and activities were on spot. We visited 5 of the restaurants they listed and each one was better than the last. I would add to be sure to bring a good pair of tennis shoes. You will definitely get your steps in every day. We 100% will recommend this villa to family/friends, and definitely will be rebooking ourselves!

The Villa is amazing! Plenty of space for our group of 8. The pool and hot tub are great places for hanging out and the views can’t be beat. David met us at the house to show us around and get us checked in. We had a great time!

The home and view was stunning! Great location for a quick walk down to Zona Romántica or Uber ride to el malecón. Communication was great, David the house manager was super sweet and helped us set up a delicious birthday breakfast. We would definitely stay in the home again!

The views from Maisie’s villa were phenomenal. An amazing place to take in the sunset and enjoy time with friends! We thoroughly enjoyed our time in PV!

Incredible place full of unique, small touches that will make you feel immediately at home. Maisie, David & Marisela went above and beyond for us to ensure all our needs were taken care of for the duration of this stay. To fully believe this place you have to see it.

I couldn't have imagined a more perfect place to stay during our visit to Puerto Vallarta. We're already talking about wanting to return to the villa for another trip! We were so grateful to have such a thorough house manual and lovely staff in David and Marisela. Both treated us like family and made sure we were comfortable and happy during our five days in Alta Vista. I was truly sad to leave! I always say that you can only expect 80% of what the pictures show online; in this case, the pictures actually **undersold** how beautiful this property truly is! I didn't expect it and you won't either. Enjoy!

The pictures do not do it justice! This villa is beautiful! The view, extraordinary! Maisie & her entire team were accommodating and truly made my first visit to PVR one to remember. I highly recommend staying here.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at Maisie’s home! The pool gets a lot of sunlight and had a great view. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms and decor were very pretty. Definitely recommend.

This was a fantastic Airbnb. We were happy with the wonderful staff who takes meticulous care of the place (house manager, gardener, pool man, maid, and private chef by request/extra cost) and the amazing pool (the photos do not do it justice). The beds were comfortable (although the rooms could certainly fit king beds), and the location provides amazing views. The kitchen was well stocked and the provided guidebook was very helpful for getting around the area and finding things to do/places to eat.

Outstanding. The communication pre-trip was excellent. The careful attention to detail and customer care during the trip was top notch. The house is gorgeous, full of light and comfort. We felt spoiled. Thank you Maisie, David and crew for a fabulous experience!

This house is gorgeous and spacious, with plenty of space for my group of 6 to spread out. The pool was warm and had sun throughout the day (in late June/early July). There are sweeping views from the pool and the rooftop jacuzzi. On some days our group relaxed by the pool all day, on others we explored the town/food. The house is a short walk/Uber to the Zona Romantica, close enough that you can go out as often as you would like. Communication with the host and staff was excellent.

Absolutely gorgeous. 10/10 the pictures don’t do it justice. Everything was clean and we were welcomed with fresh guacamole and chips. The pool was our home for the duration of the stay. The rooms were perfectly cleaned and stocked with emergency kits. If you have a chance - don’t miss out.

Stunning villa, decorated with gorgeous art, and the most amazing views out over the Zona Romántica to the bay. Would 100% stay here again - dream house!

This house is amazing! Everything from the rooms, the pool, to the hosts. Maisie was super helpful before our trip and answered a ton of my questions including assisting me with finding a cheap local COVID testing facility. We started with a warm welcome from David. David was so nice and even came to help us one day when we were struggling with the front door lock. The pool and jacuzzi were amazing as well as the view. Each room was a great size and we appreciated that each room had a bathroom and shower. Marisela, came twice to clean up and even washed and folded our clothes. This house was a dream and I would highly recommend it. The zona romántica was just a short walk away, which was great. We also had no problem getting an Uber to take us farther.

Wow! The villa is absolutely stunning. From the pool and the view, to the architecture and decor, to the strong indoor/outdoor living vibes, we couldn't have asked for a better stay for our group. Everything was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. We spent many hours in the pool, reading on the deck, and taking advantage of the hosts recommendations which were excellent and plentiful. Would stay again in a heartbeat!
