The house was stunning, the pictures don’t do it justice. The neighborhood was quiet, but very walkable, and it has a beautiful view of the river. Josefina was delightful, she made us breakfast every morning, which was delicious, and helped us with whatever we needed. Overall our stay was wonderful!

Overall, this was a great stay and the property looked very much like the photos. The check-in process was smooth—we were given a full tour of the home, shown each room, and greeted with margaritas, which was a nice touch. Some bedrooms stayed cool while others were noticeably warmer because the A/C wasn't as effective. We also saw small lizards and bugs throughout our stay, which is fairly typical in tropical destinations. Outside the front entrance, there were occasionally dogs barking, some litter, and a few moments that felt a little sketchy. The bedrooms are well spaced, making it perfect for a large group since everyone had their own sense of privacy. Another standout was the option to have groceries purchased and meals prepared for us. We chose this service, and it was absolutely worth it. The women who took care of everything were inccredibly kind, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I would definitely recommend, 9/10. The positives far outweighed the bad.

My family of 8 stayed at Villa Leonarda for a few days and we all LOVED it! At first I was concerned that they wouldn’t like the traditional design and would want more modern amenities, but the character and history of the home won our hearts! All of the artistic detail and historical significance make this a one-of-a-kind find. What a gift it was. Guac, salsa, and margaritas were waiting for us when we arrived. We had just eaten, so we weren’t quite ready for it all, but enjoyed it over the next few days. Laundry facilities weren’t working, but we had the option of providing our clothes to the house attendant to wash if needed. I will definitely recommend this villa to others who plan to travel to PV.

The staff and the home was perfect. Had a wonderful experience!

Delia made some of the best breakfast I've ever had in my life! Great spot for walking around the city, but still having an amazing home base.

Villa Leonarda was incredible, and as others have said, the pictures don’t do it justice. There’s foliage everywhere, and we saw birds and iguanas in the enormous, beautiful tree. Absolutely stunning. There was plenty of space for my friends and me, and the rooms/bathrooms are so spacious. The pool was super clean and the perfect temperature. Delia is an amazing cook, nothing better than a Mexican breakfast! Jeff and his team were super responsive to any of our needs. 10/10 would stay again. Thank you!!

Our group of ten had an incredible stay at this villa. The property is absolutely stunning — spacious, beautifully designed, and even more impressive in person than in the photos. Every room had its own unique character, and the entire villa felt luxurious, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. The pool area was amazing and became a favorite gathering spot for our group. The bathrooms were spotless, and everything throughout the home was exceptionally clean and well cared for. One of the highlights of our stay was the staff. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and helpful throughout our trip. The included breakfast each morning was outstanding and added so much to the overall experience. The location was also perfect — just minutes from the beach and nightlife, while still feeling peaceful and private enough to fully relax. This was easily one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had, and I would absolutely stay here again in the future.

My group of 10 had an amazing stay here thanks to the two women managing the home, Josefina and Jemma. They went above and beyond to keep us comfortable and fed, and turned a group vacation into a luxury stay. Arriving to guacamole and margaritas was such a wonderful touch! The home itself is worth its weight in gold. It was the perfect place to spend a week with good friends. The large bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, are perfect for couples, with plenty of space to go around. Can’t recommend this place enough - if you’re thinking about booking, just do it! Gracias a todo Josefina y Jemma!! ♥️

We had a really wonderful time at the Villa! The location was fantastic, walkable to a lot of restaurants and the beach. The pool was really great to have. The staff was fantastic - check-in was easy and welcoming and our daily breakfasts with Chepina were delicious. The rooms were spacious and clean. The only issue we had was AC in one of the rooms, but we had access to a different room with functioning AC within an hour of telling Jeff of the issue. Overall fantastic stay and definitely a great value!

The house was amazing. Such cool architecture. Love the home cooked meal every day and appreciated having groceries purchased for us. The neighborhood felt safe and there was lots to do within walking distance. The only improvement would be the air conditioning units in 2 of the rooms. 1 didn’t work at all and the other one barely kept the room cool. Wasn’t bad since there was only one warm day. When we mentioned mentioned it to the staff on site, they called maintenance and the only solution was to move to another room. Which would have moved my parents from a main floor queen room to a room with 2 twins that wasn’t prepared to be stayed in. Overall, I would stay here again but would worry about AC cooling ability if it was the hot summer time.

The pictures don’t do the place justice. It’s six bungalows around a common area that includes a pool, an area for suntanning and group meals. Every room has its own full bath. Mosquito netting enabled us to keep the windows open at night. The meals prepared by the on-site staff were fantastic!

Beautiful and one with nature. Very kind staff

Everything is very good

Jeff’s place is great! Either I missed it in the listing or didn’t realize what it meant, but this place is right next to a river that creates a very relaxing ambiance. The women who cooked and cleaned for us were very nice and very attentive for our meals. Being close to the Malecón also was a major win! I will most likely return to this place 🤙🏽

Great place to stay I highly recommend it !!

this place was even more beautiful in person! the location was excellent and the property was like an oasis. we felt very safe and there were so many beautiful areas to spend time in. I would recommend staying with Jeff 100%

Great amenities. The ladies were the best; amazing food and so attentive. Would definitely recommend for a 6-10 person group.

The pictures don’t do this place justice. Absolutely beautiful space. This was perfect for a girls trip. Jeff was so accommodating and helpful even for last minute requests. The staff and chef were friendly and make delicious tortas and chilaquiles. Would highly recommend!

Really lovely property, the courtyard was magical, we very much enjoyed our day in at the pool. all the bedrooms had AC and were unique and artfully designed. the helpers were so friendly and kind, we chose to have breakfast at the villa daily and it was such a great experience! The rooms are all separated, this is a great choice for friends or couples travelling together with very nice shared kitchen, dining and living spaces

This place is fantastic. It was perfect for a college group's 50th birthday trip, as we each had private suites and private bathrooms. Josephina and Dellia are wondeful and attentive with cleaning and cooking fabulous brunches each day. Having them help with airport transportation ensured we went there without any issues, and we kept our driver for the entire trip. Each suite is well furnished with unique original artwork. This place is a classic, old-world, charming place in Mexico. All the rooms and bathrooms are somehow open to the outside. It was perfect weather in January, and we didn't need our fans. On the weekends, there is a bit of noise from the streets below, but the river next to the complex is a lovely sound. We enjoyed the wildlife that wandered through the place. The pool was clean and wonderful. Walkable to markets and restaurants- great location! Beats any 5-star resort because you have the entire place to yourself.

Highly reccommend this place! I would love to stay again if I ever get the opportunity. So much charm and I loved the architecture/design of the home. There are 2 separate buildings with the pool in the middle. The smaller building has 2 bedrooms with a great rooftop on the third floor. We came here for a bachelorette trip with 9 ladies for 3 nights and it was perfect! Delia and Josephina were so sweet and the breakfasts were delicious! Thank you for a lovely stay!

Great unique Airbnb and in great location making it ideally for all activities. Would def recommend this property to others.

Our family and friends joined together at Villa Leonarda and had a fabulous stay. The villa has tremendous charm, and is conveniently located to access everything in the Zona Romantica and downtown areas. Jeff pre-arranged an airport shuttle for us, which worked out great. Delia and Josephina served us margaritas upon arrival, cooked us fabulous Mexican breakfasts for several mornings of our stay (we paid for them up front so that they could purchase the food), and took care of all our housekeeping needs. Our experience was completely relaxing, no stress, a quiet respite lounging by the pool watching the iguanas and birds in the trees when not out on the town.

Enchanting stay at Leonardo. Our group of 7 had tons of space. Incredible villa in great location. Staff was wonderful. It is an older property but everything worked well we had no issues. Pool was perfect.

Great location! Very cool layout

Amazing!!! The pictures don’t do it justice. This place is just incredible. A little slice of heaven. The rooms are so comfortable. The pool is lovely. Delia’s cooking is fantastic. LOVED everything.

This was a really incredible place for multiple people to have their own unique accommodations within the private compound overlooking the river. Each bedroom / bath is unique. This is a old and grown in lush property. It’s perfect for groups or multiple couples to have privacy. This property is old world Mexico with open air living…it is not a new condo property and has its quirks but this was part of the charm. The best part of the property is the 2 ladies that cooked authentic breakfast daily and were greeted with fresh guacamole that they made, as well as pico de gallo and margaritas. We loved this place and would come back to it again!

When my group arrived we were all immediately blown away. The place feels like a tropical paradise. We had one issus with the air conditioning in one bedroom the first night but Jeff was immediately responsive via text and had it fixed the next day. The staff there were so kind and amazing cooks. The location was amazing. Loved the private pool and being directly by the river with the sound of the rushing water along with all of the vegetation giving a serene tropical vine. l can’t say enough good things. I’m ready to go back already.

absolutely incredible experience! we stayed with a small group and felt we had a ton of room. snacks and drinks to welcome us were a delightful surprise! the pool was divine. location was perfect... 10/10 recommend

It was a wonderful place to stay for a large family I recommended if you have a family reunion is a place were everything is near.

This unique, tropical villa is a must-stay. From tasteful art and architecture in every bedroom to friendly and attentive staff (who made great guacamole and margaritas), it exceeded our group's expectations. We were pleased that everything we used worked well (A/C, pool, showers) and had no issues during our stay. Definitely will be rebooking for our next stay in PV!

This was my first time visiting Puerto Vallarta and we stayed at Villa Leonarda. The pictures do not do this place justice, it was absolutely beautiful! I went with a group of girlfriends and we felt that it was very private and safe. They greeted us with delicious margaritas and guacamole. Delia and Josefina were extremely helpful and nice. We were in such a great location and everything from restaurants, shops and the beach were so close and walkable. We will definitely be coming back!

Pictures don’t do justice. This is a great villa in a great location. The rooms were big and comfortable. We also enjoyed the breakfast prepared by Dalia. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

the daily breakfast was amazing. Authentic and as delicious as anything we got out in PV.

So beautiful and authentic!!! Amazing art and decorations and every room had it’s own stunning bathroom. The pool is the perfect place to cool off. Delia and Josephina made us an incredible breakfast spread every morning especially the chilaquiles verde. Walking distance to a ton of stuff in tow including the beach. The house is full of surprises and you can tell it’s well loved.

Place was great, very close to the beach and other bars. Very close to the market as well

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful Villa. The location is very close to the water and it was easy to walk around or take taxis when needed. The women who helped take care of the place are wonderful, friendly, and helpful. Custom meals cooked in the morning was a very nice experience. We would love to come back and stay at this place again soon.

Villa Leonarda was perfect for our four-day bachelor party. Exactly as advertised, the property is both peacefully secluded and walkable to everything you could need. We feel like we got great value for our stay. This is around the same price point of many 3-4 bedroom condos nearby but so much grander than those options. There is tons of character to be found, that includes little things like cracked floor tiles or and low shower heads. Don’t let those details deter you from this special place. Also, the two ladies that staff the villa are great. I highly recommend getting breakfast cooked in the villa each morning.

The house is beautiful, full of history, the pool is great, the 2 people in charge, Delia and Josefina, are very kind and pleasant, we enjoyed it as a family a lot, it's close to the market where you can find souvenirs to take home, it would be ideal if it were closer to the sea but I still love the house. Thank you for everything

La Villa Leonarda is exactly what we expected and more. We learned The place is ran by a property management team. It was nice to get details on the history of the villa from the locals we met at Iguana restaurant. We had a great experience and it was really nice to have daily breakfast ready by Delia and help with clean up from Josephina. These two ladies were helpful during our stay and Jeff and team were as well— all communication with them was via the app. We had difficulty with the front door lock, but jeff and team had the issue resolved quickly. Take your own Bluetooth speaker and ask for help well in advance for grocery run. They also helped coordinate our transportation and our driver Tomas was excellent as well. The location of the villa is convenient to the malecon, cathedral and iguana restaurant is literally around the corner up the steep hill. Walking distance to the action. Far from marina if you have a boat tour, leave early.

Everything was excellent! We had a great time. Thank you all for your hospitality.

What a wonderful and private escape. We walked in and were in awe of the overall campus of the property…more grand in size than we thought from the photos. Old world versus modern Mexican, which was exactly what we were looking for. Friendly daytime staff and a quiet oasis within blocks of all the hustle and bustle. We thoroughly enjoyed it and made lots of great memories.

A very special spot; the property is very historic and unique. Incredible place to call our home base. The entire group was happy and comfortable, in large part due to the lovely presence of Delia and Josephina, who prepared a lovely breakfast for us each morning. Would absolutely stay again.

The photos of this villa did not do it justice. This Villa was amazing! Just about a 10 minute walk to the Malecon and a 5 minute walk to various souvenir shops, a Mercado, a 24 hour Oxxo and restaurants. It’s located in a safe neighborhood, never had any sketchy people nearby. Jeff, was very quick to respond to all questions. The 2 housekeepers were so kind and helpful keeping the villa extra clean and tidy and even had welcome margaritas, chips, salsa, and guacamole waiting for us when we arrived! All in all an amazing experience!

Wonderful property and great hosts

WOW! If you get the opportunity to stay here you won’t be disappointed. Awesome location, great villa with fantastic open outdoor living concept. We will be back.

Amazing Villa. Even than the photos. Great pool. Rooftop area. Lots of space. Awesome location. Highly recommend!!

Pictures do not do justice to this home, sometimes we just wanted to lay around the nice warm pool and soak it all in. It was a perfect location for our group of 6 retired. Two must visit restaurants within 3 blocks, Bom Bon and Trio. We had the amazing ladies who helped take care of us cook a few breakfasts and it was fantastic and very reasonable. Edwardo and Lola the private chefs came to cook two nights as we sat and listened to rat pack in the amazing dining room. We can’t wait to return!

We had a spectacular time at Villa Leonarda. Pictures do not do this place justice. If you have the opportunity to stay here, I highly recommend that you do.

The location is perfection. Short walk to the beach, right in the heart of everything. The house is stunning. The pictures really don’t do it justice. It’s like you’re in a jungle—that also has AC, a pool and immaculate rooms. The service is unmatched!

This home was the perfect place for our group. We really enjoyed the nature it is surrounded by. Very relaxing to hear the river that’s along side the home while taking a dip in the pool. Would definitely stay here again.

This place is truly magical and the staff just makes it more unique. The perfect location, walking distance to phenomenal restaurants and tourist markets. The staff at the Villa are top notch 5 star and make you feel so special. Everything is thought of at this outdoor oasis!

What a spectacular historical residence. Housekeeping is AMAZING and breakfast every day wa out of this world.!!! Spoiled for sure!

Amazing place- truly an oasis in the city. Great location, can walk to the beach, shops, restaurants. We spent lots of time at the pool/courtyard area admiring the beautiful plants and decor, enjoying the shade in the loungers. The rooms are all beautiful. It is buggy despite mosquito netting, so bring bugspray. Breakfast can be made for you for the cost of the groceries and it was very delicious. It was a truly an experience to stay here!

This Airbnb was amazing! The photos did not do this place justice, it is much more breathtaking in person. We all had such a comfortable stay and loved every minute of it. The sweet grey neighborhood kitty made our stay even better. It’s so easy to get a taxi just down the block and walking distance from many shops. I would definitely book here again and again!

Great cook

Fantastic location! Walking distance to the beach and to the nightlife of PV. Rooms are huge and beds are comfortable. The chef on site cooks AMAZING! Really nice people.

Fantastic! The pictures don't do this place justice. Amazing and unique bedrooms and bathrooms. We opted for the breakfasts every day and very much didn't regret it. The location is perfect. Close to the Malecon, restaurants and shopping.

Absolutely loved staying here. Delia is an amazing host - there to help with everything but never in our way or intrusive. The house is gorgeous. Lots of indoor outdoor spaces. Definitely recommend.

This place is amazing! We would definitely stay here again. The outside patio, the pool area, the river, lush trees, daily room service all make it for an amazing resort style experience. It is a perfect location, walking distance to everything.

Where do i begin....this place is amazing!!!!! Photos dont do this place justice...if youre even thinking about getting this place ...do it, you wont be disappointed...coming back here next time im in Vallarta...much Better than i expected, a real gem out here, definitely worth it!!!

Great for groups/families. Excellent and friendly house staff to make you feel at home/ cook amazing breakfasts (best salsa EVER).

My family and I had such a great time we are definitely be coming back to Puerto Vallarta such a great stay at villa Leonarda

Highly recommended

The house was fantastic! We had a wonderful stay and will return in the future!

The place is super quaint, comfortable for families, the beach is not so close on foot but since we had a car, it didn't matter. Everything was great, since the welcome 😀

Jeff is a wonderful host. Villa Leonarda is a beautiful, clean, and stylish place for a perfect vacation getaway. Jeff is a great communicator and responded quickly to all my requests. The staff working in Villa Leonarda is friendly, pleasant, and respectful. The house is reminiscent of an stylish old Hollywood movie setting. Nonetheless, is centrally located with access to an array of amenities and sightseeing local shops. Jeff as a host and Villa Leonarda are the perfect place for anyone looking to have an amazing experience. High Ratings and Highly Recommended. "Muchas Gracias Jeff" - Joseph A.

The art was unique. Host responded to all of our questions. Staff was wonderful, kind and thoughtful! We lived the location!

Wow. The pictures do not do this place justice. -charming. The property is above the river so there is always a nice cool breeze. The patio area and lush gardens give you privacy wile you are taking a dip in the pool Outdoor living With a nice sound system The best kept secret are Delia and Josefina, wonderful ladies who work hard to spoil you during your stay. Gave them $4000.00 pesos for the week’s breakfast and other incidentals The ladies made us amazing breakfast we requested the day before. They record every expenditure and return unused money. -so sweet The home is charming and well kept. Enchanting. I mentioned to my wife that I was glad the place had no TVs. She said every room had one. I simply had no desire consider watching TV Finally, great city location Walked everywhere Thx Jeff!!!

This house is awesome! The welcome snack and drinks were lovely. The pool was warm and the whole package is charming and romantic. Every bedroom has an ensuite! The daily breakfast made by the caretakers was beautiful and comfortable. We hope to come back to this house again. Thanks Jeff!

Hoping to return to this house next year. We had a great stay!!

Beautiful villa only a few blocks from everything, surrounded by vegetation and local wildlife, one of a kind place

Warmth, efficiency, spacious and comfortable spaces, harmony between the decoration, art, history and above all the warmth that is typical of the Villa, in addition to the proximity to the heart of Vallarta to which you can move walking.

The house greatly exceeded expectations! The location is excellent and the space is great for traveling with a group.

This place is so beautiful and the pictures here do not do it justice. My friends and I had an amazing time and we’re already planning when we’ll be back.

this was an incredible experience. delia and josefina were the sweetest groundskeepers ever, so very attentive. also the photos of the villa posted online are great but the real thing is AMAZING.

Walking into the house after a day of traveling had us all blown away, we couldn’t even believe we had the whole place to ourselves, we walked around with our jaw on the floor. The photos do not even do the home justice. It was absolutely stunning, clean, and colorful! My only complaint is that the beds are incredibly firm leaving us pretty sore the following morning, but that didn’t take away from the 5 stars by any means. would definitely visit again.

The place is incredible!! beautiful, super comfortable, and very close walking to the beach of the dead. Our stay was super comfortable, the housewives are cute, and the host greeted us in the middle of the tormeta, super friendly! thousand thanks

Excellent place to enjoy Puerto Vallarta. Excellent location. Excellent service from the staff. Excellent infrastructure.

Will definitely be coming to this place I didn’t make it this time but all my family did and they loved it

Our second time staying here, and as nice as the first!

The place is so fabulous, the food and amenities are a great touch! I would highly recommend the place. The earlier review with the space description was very accurate and helpful as well.

Pictures cannot do this place justice. So amazing. My family had the best time here. Highly recommend this to anyone. Close to what is happening yet felt so far removed once you walk through the doors. Loved it.

Such a rad experience - we did indeed feel like 60's hollywood stars staying in this property. The compound is oozing with charm and photos definitely don't do justice to how much SPACE there is. We stayed as 7 people, but even 10 people could easily and comfortably stay here. I'll go into some detail in case it helps a future booking! The compound has 3 buildings: 1. Main building which has the living room, an indoor/outdoor kitchen and two bedrooms. Downstairs bedroom is by the living room but still felt private since we didn't need to use the living room. It had an indoor/outdoor bathroom, covered with a roof but leaving space at the top towards the pool area and kitchen. Upstairs bedroom is really roomy and has a curtain wall facing the living room (so gets a little bit of noise from outside). It had its own deck and a bathroom with a soaking tub . 2. Second building has two bedrooms - one upstairs and one downstairs. These were pretty spacious rooms. The roof deck is also atop this building. 3. Third building has one bedroom, the smallest in the compound (double bed). It has windows facing the river and all the greenery (amazing to wake up to). It has an outdoor bathroom, with an open-air shower and covered sink/toilet areas. This section shares a wall with a neighboring unit so one could hear some noise (but it wasn't a problem for us).

Amazing place in a great location. Great set up for up to a party of 8 traveling together with enough separation of the living spaces and bedrooms. Staff was very accommodating as well. Will definitely be back.

This is a very special house in Puerto Vallarta - the atmosphere is absolutely charming and it is very conveniently located to the restaurants and bars of the town at the same time as being on a quiet side street. The house staff took excellent care of us and the rooms are all very comfortable. The house also benefits from numerous balconies and quiet spots to enjoy wonderful views or a quietly read etc.

This is a one of a kind house. Great for big groups, We were here with a group of 8 and it never felt crowded. It is located in the heart of the old city and it feels like you are secluded in the jungle. Josefina and Delia were great help! made us breakfast every morning and had everything spotless clean! I highly recommend staying in this house! the decoration and style is really one of a kind! Thanks Jeff for everything you did to help us on our way to Puerto Vallarta!
