A beautiful condo with an amazing view. Very spacious condo with a fully stocked kitchen, nicely located minutes from the Malecón, the Marina and the airport by Uber or taxi. Walking distance to restaurants and to grocery stores. If you are up to a longer walk, you can walk to Walmart, Sam’s Club, Costco and the Market. The manager is friendly, respectful, informative and responsive. During our month stay, the unit had an abundance of napkins, paper towels and toilet paper, shampoo, dish soap, hand soap, and laundry detergent. The in unit washer and dryer was very convenient. My family enjoyed our stay and asked me to book again.

Charles and his group were amazing guests and we would love to host them again.

Shibani’s condo is superb, well decorated, well appointed and very comfortable for our month stay. It has everything one needs! The amazing views of the grounds, ocean and beach from the condo made our stay even more enjoyable! Thank you Shibani and your management team!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place. The moment we walked into Shibani’s place, we were awestruck. The view of oceans were endless, and every morning we would sit out there, drink our coffee, and spot whales. In the evening we would enjoy the sounds of the waves. The pool area was great for daytime relaxing, with drinks from the restaurant and refreshing dips in the pools. There were so many things within walking distance, from the restaurant next door to the multiple grocery stores a short distance away. We used all four bedrooms, and were grateful that each of us had our own private bathroom. The kitchen was perfect! We would often cook our own breakfasts, and it had everything we needed. The only sad part was when we had to leave, none of us wanted to go home, we could have stayed there months and not missed home at all. Thank you Shibani for allowing to spend time in your beautiful home.
Host Response
Thank you Julie. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay. Would love to host you again in the future.

Highlight of our stay was the view from the condo, the pools & seeing whales from our balcony everyday! The restaurant had great food for a very reasonable price. We like to relax at night in the condo and play games/read and that was really tough with the music next door being super super loud. You could always hear it when you were up in the condo from about 3 pm till about 9pm. Thankfully it wasn't every night but it was 5 out of the 9 nights we stayed. On arrival 2 of the bathroom sinks had hair in them and that made us feel like the whole place probable wasn't cleaned well. They sent someone the next day to clean it after I asked them to and after asking me to send photo's of it and telling me "the condo was perfectly clean". The dishwasher didn't work and they said they would send someone to fix it and no one ever came. I guess I just expected a nicer condo for the amount we spent on it. I think it needs a deep clean and some tender loving care to feel worth the price we paid.

Lovely condo in the heart of Puerto Vallarta! The views are breathtaking! We watched the whales everyday right from our balcony. The kitchen is full stocked with all necessary appliances, utensils and dishes. Everything you need including a”junk drawer” was available. The filtered water for drinking is great as we made lemonade and ice tea everyday. The views from all the bedrooms really make you feel like you in paradise. The full list of amenities is perfect… we tried some of the restaurants recommended. La dolce is literally right across the street and inexpensive! Loved it! We did take a taxi to the Malecon several days to shop and for dinner…very easy to get one right out your door. We also grocery shopped at Soriana the day we checked in. Thank you for a memorable stay at your beautiful home!

Thank you Jane. We loved hosting your group.

This was our second visit and the condo did not disappoint. We love the grand Venetian and this is by far one of the best units in the building. Everything is fully stocked and clean. We will definitely return in the future and stay here if the condo is available.
Host Response
Thank you Sara, you are welcome back anytime. We love to host you and family/friends.

We've stayed at the Grand Venetian many times before in other units. As it's an older complex, maintenance issues are common, but we had an inordinate amount during this stay. When we checked in, there was no hot water. Then we filled the fridge with food and it stopped working. The A/C in the main living area died. The dishwasher at first wouldn't start at all, then it leaked all over the floor, and once that was all fixed it never actually cleaned the dishes. The kitchen sink and one of the showers backed up. Our hosts were always very responsive, and maintenance people would show up the next day, but as we had to be there to let them in each time, it was quite disruptive to our stay (and the dishwasher was never fully fixed so we had to handwash everything for 2 weeks which was a pain with 7 people). No compensation was offered for any of this, and when I asked, we got back half of one night's stay - the condo was beautiful, but these issues were kind of a bummer.

Views were amazing, Kitchen well Stocked. Walmart is 10min away. I recommend taxi to Walmart. The wrap around patio was everything. Great Pools and beach in seconds. Beds are comfortable. The whole layout met our expectations. Thanx again.

I am beyond pleased with my Stay at Shibani’s. The place was absolutely amazing. More beautiful than the pictures. Everything is high quality within the apartment from furnishings, linens and kitchen appliances. Absolutely loved it. The apartment theme and everything was of “it starts with a dream” is fitting. It was definitely a dream spot!

We want to thank the hosts for their hospitality and kindness, the truth is that the photographs don't do it justice, the place is spectacular, the arrival at the place is easy and accessible, the place is beautiful and its views from any area are unparalleled, the rooms are super comfortable and clean, the bathrooms have everything you need, the kitchen is super equipped, we didn't need anything that wasn't there, the views on the terrace are unique, those sunsets and their fireworks at night make for a great evening. My family and I were delighted with everything there, and of course we would stay here again on our next visit. The food at the restaurant is super tasty and affordable.

Absolutely beautiful space. Some minor communication issues— I was a last minute booking, so they had the cleaners there a few hours into my check-in, and they sent a bunch of maintenance people an hour before my check out to prepare for their next guests. When I voiced my disappointment they were understanding and offered me a small credit, which I appreciated. The space was incredible though! Next to perfect!

Paola was a wonderful and warm property manager and so very helpful with check in! We stayed with our three children and they were thrilled to have multiple daily pool trips which had many spots for us to settle in and find sun or shade. The restaurant/bar poolside is perfect for getting brunch, snacks, lunch, or after sunset dessert to go—they’ll bring it to our pool chair or room service. While the kids took a pool break with dad I went to the beach for a massage—a trip highlight for me. Live music next door during the week stopped promptly at 9:00. Our stay was Sun-Friday so we can’t speak to any weekend noise there might be. The space boosts new bathrooms and a kitchen. We used the kitchen for a couple kid friendly meals and other times hopped in a taxi for a very short ride to dinner or walked across the street to the trendy spaces you find there. Wonderful stay!

The place is amazing with the exception of the “4th bedroom” it barely fits the futon and it doesn’t have AC, I felt horrible having to put someone in that room. Check in instructions weren’t very clear and there’s no reception once you get there. Everything else is really good, great views, great location, Fully stocked kitchen. I would definitely go back.

The host was more than accommodating during our stay. Anything my group needed, the host was quick to respond and help with. The location is just amazing ! The balcony sunsets were beautiful from the condo. The airbnb was prepped and ready with all the things that we needed upon arrival. Getting a ride from Ubers from the airbnb was smooth. My group and I would definitely stay here again in the future.

AMAZING PLACE! The views are worth every penny. The hosts are great and accomodating. Very clean place and excellent communication by Shibani and team. they made sure we had a relaxed vacation and gave us all details before hand & arranged/ put us in touch with local folks (chef, grocery etc.) the place itself is amazing with all facilities you can think of (pool, spa, restaurants etc). you can't go wrong with the place and the hosts. Book it and have a great time in Mexico!

This is a huge must book Airbnb. Our family absolutely loved our stay. This location is close to the airport, fantastic restaurants, shopping, beach walking, massages, pool and friendly people. The place is airy with a wrap around deck that makes you never want to leave because of how it makes you feel. It has every amenity that makes you get lost in with the comfort. The living space, bathrooms, kitchen make you feel as if you are in a luxury home. The condo is super clean, comfortable bed and pillows, great bathrooms, washer and dryer, multiple private areas to work. You can tell the host has made no exceptions to make your stay ahhhhmazing! Extremely recommend and our family is already talking about when our next trip is this year back to this place in PV!

The place was amazing and the hosts were as perfect as the view! It is stressful enough to book a trip for your whole extended family but Shibani & hosts were so helpful with accommodating us and prompt with their responses. The view cannot be beat and the location is perfect. My family and I were at different hotels and we were able to meet up with each other on the beach. The facilities are very nice and I can only say great things. I would definitely book this location again.

This place has gorgeous views and includes everything you need to have a great time. The apartment is decked out with everything you would expect from back home. The pool area is not meant for loud voices or any sort of partying. They are very specific that you cannot drink anything in the pool and you cannot play any music. If you’re looking for a nice quiet place to get away this is it. I highly suggest making sure you have the phone number for the front desk so they can send you a cab whenever you want to go out. The walk to the front gate can be a long one otherwise.

This place is amazing! The location, condo, facilities and the host's communications were top notch. Safe and secure with plenty of security. The unit has a great location with great amenities and easy access to local eateries and shopping. The description is spot on. We were a party of 8 and had plenty of room for everyone. Beautiful sunsets and relating patios will make your trip to PV amazing.
