3BR Condo in Puerto Vallarta

Excellent, 3 weeks ago

This is my 3rd time renting from Mark and it never disappoints. The condo is the best unit that have found. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops, yet very private for the quite moments needed to relax. What I love about Mark's unit is everything has been labeled throughout the unit from light switches to how to close the sliding blinds, how to operate the TV - everything is detailed out. Mark's units is spectacular and very well maintained. The building is very well maintained and extremely safe.

Marks place was a great stay! Apartment was very spacious and the patio offered great views. Super convenient location and mark was very responsive. Would stay here again.

Host Response

Thank you for the wonderful review! I’m very glad you enjoyed the condo, the spacious layout, and the patio views. The location really is one of the best parts of staying here, and I appreciate your comments about communication as well. You were a great guest, and I would be happy to host you again anytime you return to Puerto Vallarta.

This was a great stay for us. Close enough to everything we wanted to do and yet felt private and gave us an escape from the lively town. The rooftop pool has amazing views and was very tranquil. The entire building team was friendly and access was very easy. The home was stocked with everything we would need, everything was easy to find.

Host Response

Thank you for the wonderful review. I’m very glad you enjoyed the condo, the rooftop pool, and the location. D’Terrace is a great balance of being close to the energy of Puerto Vallarta while still providing a peaceful place to relax. I also appreciate your comments about the building staff and amenities. Thank you again for staying, and I hope to host you again in the future.

Great place to stay in Vallarta. Very close to the beach and surrounded by restaurants and bars, but at the same time very peaceful and quiet. It has a great terrace with nice views where you can just relax. The apartment is well designed with very nice furniture and an open concept that makes it feel roomy. I would stay here any time again.

Host Response

Thank you for the kind review. I’m glad you enjoyed the location, the peaceful atmosphere, and the terrace views. It’s great to hear the layout and design of the condo made the space feel comfortable and roomy. I appreciate you staying with us and would be happy to host you again anytime.

Mark is the best host and very responsive. His place or should I say "Our" place is top notch and the best location. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants with the best little market around the corner to pickup forgotten items. This my 2nd time renting his condo and it does not disappoint at all. The rooftop is the best and the staff are awesome. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this penthouse as the spot to be to relax.

Host Response

Thank you Tony and your right, its your place for one week every year! I stayed at my condo right after Tony left and he and his guests left it in pristine condition. Highly recommend Tony as your next guest also!

Our jaws dropped when we walked inside. Everything met our expectations and beyond! The views from the balcony are breathtaking. Mark was very detailed in his instructions, and we had no troubles at all. This is just far enough from the nightlife and clubs to enjoy peace, but close enough to walk to everything we desired. The photos posted don't do this place justice. Thank you, Mark!

Host Response

Thank you, Ronald, for the nice review! Work begins next week to refurbish the upstairs patio and pool area. I'm also taking this time to make some interior upgrades to the condo, so it will be even better for your next stay.

We had 5 adults in the space but it never felt crowded! Enough space for all of us to mingle and/or have private space if needed. The condo was furnished beautifully, very relaxing and extremely comfortable. The pool/jacuzzi area does not disappoint and the pictures are what you get...amazing views for days! The location was perfect, just far enough away to feel private and quiet but walk down the stairs to the main boulevard and you are less than a block from all the action! There is the PERFECT market/deli less than a block away (Amapas) that literally had everything you would need, ie drinks, toiletries and food including premade and grocery items such as eggs, meat, cheese, vegetables, etc. They make burritos, etc right there and FRESH pico and guacamole ready made! The gentleman who hosts the space is incredible responsive and helpful with tips on restaurants, places to visit, etc. This place is a gem in the Romantic Zone, highly recommend!!

Host Response

Thank you for your wonderful review, Heather! I’m so glad the condo worked well for your group and that you enjoyed the views from the pool and jacuzzi. I’m also happy you discovered the Amapas market—it’s a gem, and they have such great quality products, including fresh groceries, delicious burritos, and those amazing ready-made pico and guacamole. It’s always a bonus when our guests appreciate the local spots. Thanks again for your kind words, and we’d love to host you again anytime!

Mark was a great host. It was the first time staying at an Airbnb instead of a hotel for most of my group and we loved it. The condo was in a great location close to everything we loved visiting and it was beautifully maintained. It was perfect for our trip. Mark was a pleasure communicating with. Highly recommend to others thinking of a PV vacation!

I really enjoyed staying at Mark's place, and this was, in fact, my second time here. Mark's concierge makes the check-in and check-out process seamless as possible. Mark, as well as the concierges, are extremely responsive to any questions whether simply for recommendations or any issues that may arise. Also, Mark's place is in an amazing location. It's central to many of the hot spots in Puerto Vallarta, so it's only a quick walk to almost anywhere you'd want to go. The view from the unit's patio is phenomenal as are the amenities available (pool/gym). I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking to visit Puerto Vallarta.

I travel to PVR annually and this is the Best Condo I have every rented. I love the location and less than a block away to the beach and close to any restaurant. The rooftop views are excellent and friendly owners in the building - they don't make you feel unwanted! Security was great and the building is quite. This is officially my home away from home annually. Clean, spacious, quiet and comfortable!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!

Super great, happy to come back. Kitchen very well equipped. Location also good. Communication very good.

If you are looking for the ultimate place to stay in PV, look no further than Mark’s Condo. The space is large, luxurious and clean. It’s 1-2 blocks from gorgeous beaches, the local pier, and Mantamar Club. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, a market in immediate proximity to the building, and the pool and hot tub are to die for. The building and employees who manage it/work security are friendly, kind, and professional. Overall, I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you Mark for making our first Pride experience in PV unforgettable.

Great location. Beautiful pool area. Quick responses for any needs from the host. Looking forward to coming back.

We loved staying at Mark's D'Terrace Penthouse Suite in the Zona Romántica section of Puerta Vallarta. It is super convenient and walkable to all of the wonderful beaches, restaurants, and clubs in the bustling section of the touristy area, but set peacefully away on a small side-street near the Hotel Tropicana on Amapas. The amenities in D'Terrace are fantastic - it is definitely one of the best infinity pools in the city with a hot and cold sauna and incredible views, and the gym has excellent equipment (also a fantastic view). The building requires wrist-bands for security which we appreciated, and we honestly had no issue with them (was actually surprised to see complaints about this from some guests). The management company contacts are very accommodating - our plane was delayed and customs at PVR was terrible (two hour wait to get through), so we appreciated that Pablo waited for us, and even got us some snacks and drinks since we were starving and so late for check-in.

Convenient location, tucked away on a private street from the Main Street right across from Hotel Tropicana. Walking distance to everything. Safe & secure with 24/7 security. Clean, well kept condos & building. Rooftop pool is nice. No bartender though, BYOL. Good times!

Host Response

My sincere gratitude for your recent stay at Penthouse 4. Although you provided a four star review, your detailed review truly reflects a Five Star stay, and I want to express my thanks for highlighting the following aspects: CLEANLINESS: Free of clutter, squeaky-clean bathroom, pristine kitchen. ACCURACY: Looked like the photos, matched the description, had listed amenities & services. COMMUNICATION: Always responsive, local recommendations, proactive, helpful instructions, friendly. LOCATION: Peaceful, beautiful surroundings, private, great restaurants, lots to do, walkable. VALUE: I noted your three-star rating, but you did chose the largest three bedroom Penthouse at D’Terrace and my rates are at or below comparable condos. Mexican taxes and platform fees always adds a lot to the total bill, which is posted before you book. Thank you once again for choosing our beautiful penthouse condo!

We loved the condo and building amenities, saying that the security and staff at building were super rude and unwelcoming with attitudes. This brought down our excitement every time coming and going from the building.

Host Response

I appreciate your overall five-star rating you provided for cleanliness, accuracy, communication, location, and value. I work very hard to ensure all of this is done for my guests. However, you gave me a one star for the "check-in" category, which designated for the concierge team who checked you in/out and gave you a tour of the property. I understand your concern pertains to our security team. As the owner, when I leave and enter the gated property, I consistently inform the guard who may not know me about my residence, Penthouse 4. I recognize the importance of them monitoring and controlling entries and exits, and I value the guard's commitment to security protocols. They maintain a written log of all entries/exits, ensures that there is no unauthorized entry onto the property which thereby contributes to the overall safety we all feel within the compound of D'Terrace. You noted that security was "super rude and unwelcoming with attitudes" and in an email to me you said they were "hostile aggressive." While the guard may ask the condo number or to see your bracelet without a smile or a greeting, I must emphasize that, from my perspective, this doesn't imply being "rude" or "hostile aggression." Hostile aggression involves overt and intentional behavior to harm or intimidate others. In this context, it seems he is performing his duties as instructed, without necessarily being overtly friendly. In my five years of owning this property, this is the first time I have heard anyone say this about our contracted security team. I have brought this issue up to the supervisor who oversees this team. Again, sometimes a lack of a smile or greeting is not rude but a perception by the receiver.

Most beautiful apartment in Puerto Vallarta! I stayed here in October 18-28, 2023. This is an absolutely gorgeous place! Every inch of apartment is decorated beautifully, and everything is in working, new shape. Wow! I came here with three friends and we each had a bedroom. We stayed 10 days and paid $4051 total. As if the apartment is not enough, there’s a pool on the roof that is stunning. It’s a big pool, and I swam laps every day. I’ll go back for the pool. We thought that the location was perfect. Two blocks walk into town. Plenty of taxis waiting across the street at Hotel Tropicana. Everyone at the property was helpful to us, and very friendly. I wasn’t fond of needing to wear a wristband for 10 days, but I appreciate the need for security. This apartment is very expensive so I can’t give it a high score on value. We absolutely loved this apartment and hope to return soon.

Host Response

Thank you John for your very nice comments about my condo. I am happy all three of you enjoyed it and that each person had its own bedroom with door for privacy. This condo is the only three bedroom penthouse at D'Terrace. I totally understand that $4,051 is expensive, which it is. But you paid the low summer rate of $295/night and I add on $95 for cleaning and concierge services, which totals $3,045. The remaining $1,005 is required that airbnb charges for their host service fee, city occupancy tax, VAT and Mexican Income Tax. These fees were only added about 2 1/2 years ago. I now also get the great opportunity to pay state and federal taxes on this income. :-( Thank you again John and I hope you brought home many fond memories of your trip! Mark

Unfortunately we arrived here the day after hurricane Lydia put Puerto Vallarta into darkness so our stay was cut short and the conditions were less than ideal but none of this was the host’s fault. Under normal circumstances this condo would be a great choice for a stay in PV—clean, spacious, beautiful rooftop pool and couldn’t ask for a better location. The only thing that could have been done better was for the condo to have emergency supplies (flashlights, candles, battery pack, water, etc) This was an exceptional event for PV but given the location and unpredictable weather these days, it’s a must going forward. The wristband system, while probably fine under most circumstances, was frustrating during this stay. I had to remove mine at night as we slept in incredibly humid conditions with no AC and it was causing a rash on my wrist. The front desk staff was extremely rude and unwilling to accommodate even under these challenging circumstances for everyone in PV.

Host Response

Thank you for the kind comments about the condition of the condo and amenities. We work hard to provide a great experience. Unfortunately, the damage caused by Hurricane Lidia was bad. Winds caused trees to topple and power went out causing all utilities to stop. To make matters worse, it was that time of the year where it was hot and humid. In my five years of owning this property, this is a first. You brought up a good point and another issue you brought to my attention- your cell phone was almost dead. I have already purchased an emergency lantern that has a rechargeable battery, solar panel and hand crank to recharge as well as a USB to charge the phone. I will have that at the condo shortly. As for the wristband issue and 24 hour contracted security, I have addressed this with the association president.

The penthouse condo was spectacular, in an amazing location with breathtaking views. The condo is in superb condition and the pool on the roof top was simply amazing. Great location, excellent and responsive host.

We were welcomed at the lobby by friendly staff and then walked over to our penthouse unit. A smooth experience overall and clean space with delightful views, specially from the rooftop pool and lounge area. Towels were provided for the pool and a decent speed wifi allowed us to get a little work done as well. The location is extremely practical to the blue chairs on the beach as it is a very short stroll away. Finally, someone was there to ensure the checkout was smooth. The only small downfall was the bracelet that has to be kept on for the duration of the stay. We would definitely visit again. Thank you for the experience!

Host Response

I'm delighted to hear that you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed both my condo and the D'Terrace property. The requirement for the bracelet is solely for security reasons, ensuring that only registered guests access the premises. This practice is quite common among hotels and condo complexes to prioritize everyone's safety. Thank you for your understanding, and I hope to host you again in the future!

Condo was great and really clean. Walkable to many restaurants and Starbucks. Beach was also a block or two away and the view of the ocean from the balcony was fantastic.

Our visit was outstanding. As good as the place looked on Airbnb, it was even better. The place itself is very nice and well appointed. Everything worked great. The rooftop pool and fitness center are just one level up - you can get there in seconds - and are really nice. The neighborhood was great and we liked being a block or two off the busiest parts yet still close to the beach. And not only was Mark super responsive, there was a local concierge who was super helpful. All in all, great experience.

Mark was a fantastic host, giving us tons of suggestions for places to go in the area. The place feels super safe as only the registered guests are permitted and there is someone watching the gate at all times. The rooftop area alone is worth the cost of the stay; amazing views, peaceful, a great spot to hang during the day before going out on the town. The condo is gorgeous and spacious for 6 people. Will definitely look to stay here the next time we visit.

Mark’s place is incredible! From the location to the fully stocked condo, it was the perfect start to our summer. The condo is very clean with clear instructions, the pool has the most incredible view and is so mellow, and the location is the best- we walked all over the place. We will definitely be returning!

Host Response

Thank you Tegaan for the incredible review and I hope to see you in the future. I will pass this on to the staff who makes the condo and D'Terrace such a nice place.

Our family of 6 (5 adults and a toddler) had wonderful 4 nights at Mark’s apartment. The condo is well equipped with everything that a family would need, just as advertised. Check-in is seamless and fast (thank you Ariana). The apartment itself is spacious and comfortable. The amenities, especially the roof top pool, are perfect. The location couldn’t be better- steps away from the beach and wonderful restaurants. Most importantly though, Mark, the host, was great-incredibly responsive and always willing to help. Thank you, Mark. Book your next stay here- you will not be disappointed!

Mark was amazing, and the most accommodating for our groups 1st stay in Puerto Vallarta! The views from the attached balcony were stunning, and the home was very clean. Checking in and having full time security on the property gave piece of mind, even though the neighborhood felt very safe! We will definitely be back to enjoy the generous rooftop pool, and the quick walk to the beach and all the fun downtown PV had to offer?

My family and I had a relaxing week here, the place is as advertised! We sought a place that combined privacy with walkability close to restaurants and activity. Also, we wanted a vacation home big enough for us to spread out (we are four people, my kids each had their own room which was wonderful). Mark’s home is a perfect size and layout for our needs, also very clean and comfortable. We also appreciated the nice decorations and art, which are added touches that make the experience here all the better. Finally, the staff and security of the building are great and very reassuring. And Mark is a very responsive host. Highly recommend!

This is an amazing penthouse suite. It has everything that you could possibly want. The penthouse is roughly 200 yards from the beach. The view from the balcony is breathtaking.You are in the heart of Zona Romantica Puerto Vallarta. The gym upstairs is fully equipped. The pool area is just perfect. Quiet and peaceful. You are roughly 200 yards from the beach. This is a gret place to stay if you are visiting Puerto Vallarta

We had an amazing time staying at this condo in Puerto Vallarta! The location was perfect - just a short walk to the beach and close to all of the great restaurants and shops in the Romantic Zone. The condo itself was beautiful, with a modern and stylish design. But the real standout feature was the roof top infinity pool! It was the perfect place to relax and take in the gorgeous views of the ocean. We spent hours lounging by the pool and watching the sunset. The host was also fantastic - very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. We highly recommend this condo for anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable vacation in Puerto Vallarta. Five stars all around!

Great stay! Beautiful condo in a great location!

Mark’s place is definitely a must to stay in PV! The location was so centered and it was so easy to get around. I definitely appreciate the privacy of the entire property as well! This way the pool/hot tub area was always so quiet and not crowded at all. The view was absolutely gorgeous! The unit is on the last floor before the rooftop and the stairs to go up is just around the corner so super convenient access. The size of this 3 bedrooms 2.5 baths was just amazing! The queen-size bedroom however is a bit small, can still fit 2 people in terms of sleeping, but not a lot of room for your things. Although there are plenty of space in the other two rooms so not at all a big deal. Check in/out was so smooth! Our concierge, Gustavo, was super responsive and definitely made sure our requests were taken care of. The property will give you a bracelet to wear the entire time you are there. We weren’t given this specific instruction, but make sure you keep them on and only have the concierge or the security guards take them off when you leave or you might have to pay for them. Mark was also very responsive prior to our arrival and was very accommodating since we had to make so many changes like the total guests, arrival date/time, etc. All were taken care of and less stress for me, so thank you! Highly recommend this place if you’re planning a trip to PV! :)

Mickey, Thank you for the nice comments and I'm very happy you enjoyed your stay. You are welcome back anytime!

Mark and Enrique's place is EXCEPTIONAL. Check in was very smooth, even with a last minute change in plans. Communication with Mark was very easy. He responded to my messages almost immediately. Him and Enrique provided a full guide of many restaurants and stores nearby for the new to PV traveler. There is a store almost right next door that has pretty much all you need. (It's pesos only FYI) The building is beautiful and the building amenities were just wonderful. The staff and security were also very friendly. The location can't be beat. We never needed to take a taxi (excluding our trip from and to the airport) .. and we didn't just go to the beach. The unit also has a washer and dryer which was extremely convenient to have. My friends and I loved our stay and we would absolutely book this place again when we come back.

Host Response

Andy, We are so very happy you enjoyed the condo. Thank you and I hope to see you in the future! Mark and Ricky

This penthouse was fantastic. Our party of 6 was comfortable and happy with the space, the view, the location, and the environment. Communication from the host was thorough and consistent. The staff at the building are attentive and helpful, and the property feels very safe and secure. The only notes we had were that the wifi coverage was quite poor in two of the bedrooms, and the temperature swings in the shower could be a little extreme. This is an issue that presents many places in PV so it is certainly not worth eliminating this property. We look forward to visiting again in the future.

Host Response

I'm glad you had a great stay at the condo. Thanks for the input on the wifi as I will look into getting some type of wifi extender or other devise to improve coverage to that one bedroom by the front door. (The pool wifi is right above that bedroom with a great signal.) As for the on demand water heater, it is challenging when there are six people using two showers, four sinks and a washing machine. It just can't keep up with the demand. This past year I replaced the intake pipes into the on-demand water heater in hopes of improvement, but I will ask the building manager if they have other recommendations. Thank you again!

This is a fantastic stay! Cute Airbnb, well decorated, clean, and close to beaches, clubs, and restaurants. One thing worth noting is that the building has a strict no guest policy, which was a bit of a bummer because we wanted to invite some other friends over to enjoy the rooftop pool. But as long as you're ok with no guests this is a fantastic place and I'd highly recommend staying here

Host Response

Thank you for your kind comments on the condo, building and location. D'Terrace really is in a great location and well kept. In regards to unregistered guests using the common areas, it is true, not allowed. All residents and registered guests pay a lot to use the rooftop pool and expect the limited amount of lounge chairs to be available to them and not unregistered guests. It only makes sense and it is a very common practice at many condo's and hotels in the area. Sometimes it's not a popular rule, but its understandable. Hope to see you again soon.

This was an amazing, beautiful, upscale condo that delivers everything promised. It’s a beautiful, modern interior with a beautiful terrace and view, as well as easy access to the gorgeous rooftop area and infinity pool, with even more spectacular views. The hosts know what their guests need, including easy, comprehensive checkin and check out, all the amenities required, instructions on how to use the condo and it’s various equipment. And the location is perfect to walk easily everywhere in the Zona Romantica. This wasn’t just a place to stay, it was an experience that added to the pleasure of the entire trip. Highly recommended and will definitely return.

This is an incredible penthouse unit that's within quick walking distance of beachside dining and clubs. This penthouse feels brand new, modern, clean, and well decorated. The view is phenomenal, offering both a full city view, as well as the bay. Just one flight of stairs up is the infinite pool, providing the best place to catch a sunset in the city. Before I arrived, the Concierge was in contact with me and was waiting for me the moment I jumped out of the cab. They were also always available for any questions or requests I had throughout my stay. Needles to say, I fully intend on returning to this listing when I visit PV again.

We really enjoyed staying at Mark's condo - for the price we had a great location and an amazing pool topside of the building. We were a party of 4 and had plenty of comfortable space for sleeping and bathrooms for everyone. We didn't think we were going to use the washer & dryer but after a day of hot, humid weather and being in the ocean or pool, we loved being able to wash our towels and clothes. The only down-side is that the building management is very strict on having guests - we were allowed 2 people into the condo, because it's a total of 6 per condo. But those guests couldn't join us at the pool unless we were able to add them to our condo. Just be aware that they are strict with it so if you have a group of more than 6 - our friends stayed in a different house, but next time we will see about having them get a condo in the building so we can be together more often. We also had a small grocery store just around the corner which was great - and we were within walking distance of a bunch of restaurants and shopping.

Host Response

Sergio, I'm glad you had a great stay at the condo and found it to be comfortable and in a great area. You were a GREAT guest, left the condo in pristine condition and you are welcome back anytime! You commented about outside guests. During the booking process, there is a "house rules" stating 'No more than 6 people allowed in any condo' and the guidebook mentions guests not allowed in the common areas. Most every condo in PV has the same rules and this is primarily due to limited lounge chairs and space by the pools. There have been people in the past who pick up numerous 'friends' from the beach and before long, all the chairs are taken and nothing left for the guests staying in the condos. But you are right, if you plan to stay at D'Terrace again or any other condo, all friends should stay at the same building to avoid any conflict. Thank you again and I hope to see you in the future!

The penthouse condo on Calle Cafeto hosted by Mark in Puerto Vallarta was beautiful! The condo was perfectly suited for our group of 5 people, but could also have comfortably fit a close friend group of 6 or roomy group of 4. Towels, towels, & more towels. Mark has you covered with towels & kitchen essentials. Whether it’s high quality plastic cups & pitchers for drinks by the pool or everything you need to actually cook & make breakfast and coffee, Mark has you covered. So thankful for all those added extras that make a trip enjoyable & stress free. In regard to amentities the in unit washer/dryer unit was perfect, the coffee machine in the kitchen came in handy. We spent an entire day lounging by the stunning infinity pool and it’s actually better in person than in the photos on the listing. Located super close to the heart of Zona Romantica, the gay boys are definitely utilizing the condo’s rather well equipped mini gym to get a good muscle pump before hitting the pools so if you are in the master bedroom & wondering what all those thumping sounds are, that’s the weights hitting the ground (lol), but it’s not intolerable. The gym is super convenient with a stunning view & clean. The gym also has a Bose’s bluetooth speaker that is super handy for a fun group of fit friends & it’s freezing so perfect to stay fit but stay cool despite the heat in Vallarta! In terms of location, we found this place super centrally located between some of the resorts that were further south on the PV coast and then the nightlife that was just a 6 minute drive or a 12 minute walk north of the condo. Would I stay again? 1000% yes! It’s rather hot in July - September, but we didn’t mind because we wanted to get out. Next time I’ll be back in tourist season for slightly cooler temperatures! When I do…. my friends & I will be trying to book Mark’s place. * the only thing I didn’t enjoy was wearing these tourist bracelets the entire time that the condo association mandates guests to wear that essentially scream tourist with a day pass to an amusement park.

Our stay at Mark's condo was fantastic. We have stayed at the D'Terrace building once before and could not be happier. Mark was super responsive to any questions we had leading up to our stay. The location to the beach, restaurants, and night life is hard to beat. Make sure to go to the bodega just down the street for some homemade salsas and guacamole. I would stay at Mark's condo in the future when we visit PV.

I am so happy you had a great stay and thank you for the great review. I just made another improvement to the middle bedroom and increased the size of the mattress to a queen size with a pillow top for added room and comfort. I hope to see you in the future. Thank you again!!

This penthouse apartment is absolutely stunning. The location is perfect for the beaches and the bars / restaurants in Zona Romantica. It is also steps away from the rooftop pool with the best views of PV I have seen. I highly recommend booking!

Mark and I were in constant contact and Mark was very responsive to my questions and made sure my arrival was flawless.  Check-in and check-out was very smooth.  This Penthouse will amaze you!  We stayed in the 3br/3ba penthouse suite and had an amazing stay with beautiful and expansive views and amenities!    The location is PERFECT and for simple supplies with a good selection of food and beverages, there is a market just a few hundred feet away.   The condo is close to great beaches, restaurants and bars and everything was within walking distance.  The rooftop infinity pool/Jacuzzi/seating area is amazing and the pool area was never crowded during our stay.  Penthouse 4 is a very welcoming and quiet condo with beautiful furnishings and artwork.  We especially enjoyed having morning coffee on the lanai while planning the day's (and night's) activities. We were very happy that we chose this condo and we look forward to returning!

If you're on the fence about booking this penthouse in Puerto Vallarta: Do it. You will not regret it. Mark’s space was perfect for my small group. The building was fabulous with an amazing rooftop pool and courteous staff. The condo had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. And the location is fantastic, right next to the beach, pier, and countless bars and restaurants. There’s nothing more to want for a Romantic District getaway. This is it, enjoy!

Mark's place was perfect. Great Location, sparkling clean, great amenities beautiful decor, great pool with an awesome view!

Thanks for a great place to stay in PVR. The check in was simple and the location was perfect for our needs. It is within walking distance to both the beach and town. I’m not sure if this was because of COVID, but we did not have maid service. This however was not an issue for us. Our only issue was the hot water was spotty. There were multiple times where we only had cold water. The condo manager was quick to respond and reported the issue immediately.

Thanks Joe and I'm glad you had a great time at my condo. I work hard to make it a special place for everyone's vacation. In regards to Maid service, it is stated in the posted condo description that maid service is provided every seven days. There are plenty of supplies/towels for everyone for a week. I will follow-up with the on-demand water heater. I was there two weeks earlier and experienced no problem. (The igniter is battery operated which could have been the problem.) Thanks again and I hope you had a safe flight home!

What an amazing place! The condo was super clean. Great views. Awesome rooftop pool. Close to beach. Nothing but the best in this condo. Better than advertised. Thanks Mark!

This place is incredible. The location is perfect, it is a very short walk away from Los Muertos beach. Additionally, the location gives you a great view. The condo is beautiful and luxurious. We found it spotless and equipped with everything we may need during our stay. Both our host, Mark, and the concierge service were very attentive to our needs, and very communicative. I would not think it twice on booking this property again. Thanks Mark!
