Casa Cristal del Mar

Curt and Victoria were the perfect hosts right from the get go. The communication was proactive, the hints and tips on what to do locally was excellent and the whole experience from when we arrived to when we left was incredible. Their house was unbelievably nice and you could see a lot of attention had been taken to every detail . We found out that much of the decor and decorations for the house was done by local crafts people. We would love a holiday home just like one! The location was well located near a beach and a short walk to all the nice restaurants and amenities in and around Punta Mita and not too far from Puerta Vallarta, the nearest big town which also has an incredible stretch of beach. If you enjoy surfing this is a great location! A houskeeper came every day to tidy up the house and we also had Patty cook for us on two of the evenings. The food was simply amazing and also Patty was so nice. If you have young kids, you should ask Patty to do a Piñata making class f

Highly recommend Curt & Victoria’s home. It’s beautiful, spacious and very well cared for. Everyone was incredibly responsive and helpful. The roof deck is a dream. We didn’t rent a car it was very easy to get around on foot with kids. So happy we chose this home for our Punta Mita vacation. Thank you!

The home is lovely. A perfect set up for a larger family, or even multiple. The well appointed kitchen was helpful for breakfasts/snacks/morning coffee. You could make every meal at home, if you chose. We wanted to try local restaurants. The pool sits just outside the glass doors and we used that when we needed a break from the beach. The house is spacious and well maintained. We loved the fact that everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. Plus, there is a 1/2 bath off the sitting area on the main floor. The house has A/C. Was needed at times during our stay. The beach access is just a couple of blocks away which is very convenient. Curt and Victoria have provided all the beach "toys" you could want - boogie boards, SUP boards, beach chairs and towels etc. The surf was perfect for our more novice surfers. We live in the mountains :) We took the review suggestions and had Paty and her son Antonio cook for us on the first night, Sunday. We didn't realize how smart that was given most places are closed Sunday evenings. They did an amazing job, food was delicious. We ate that night, and frequently on the beautiful roof top deck. Paty made so much food, we ate lunch the next day from the leftovers! I highly recommend asking Paty if she's available for your stay. Restaurant row is a bit of a walk (in 90 degree heat), so we should've probably rented a golf cart, however they are really expensive ($106/day). Just something to consider. Bring sneakers! The town is sweet, the locals are so friendly. Four nights was perfect for us. I think if you stay longer, you may want to consider visiting some of the other towns like Sayulita or San Pancho. Since we'd been to both before, we decided to just stick close to "home" this trip. We hired Manny's Tours to take us to the islands for a few hours, we snorkeled and checked out the birds. Jose was our guide, we highly recommend him! It's been said before, but this home is not in the gated parts of Punta Mita. Do your research. We found it to be perfect for us. We aren't golfers and wanted more of a local feel. If you are considering Punta Mita - this should be your choice.

Curt and Victoria's house packs a huge value for a small price if you have a group. Definitely check out Teresa's Tacos - their Agua fresca was the best I've had. Casa Del Pintor right around the corner was also excellent! Easy stroll down to the beach or to the fancier area of Punta Mita. this location was quiet and very private with a huge rooftop patio and private pool.

This is a lovely home: comfortable, artistic, well-designed. It was perfect for our family and provided a wonderful experience for us. The staff Curt and Victoria use were all warm and lovely people.

This home is amazing in every way. We will definitely be back. Much larger than pictures even show and so close to the beach and many restaurants. For sure get Paty to cool you at least one meal, her food is incredible. Curt and Victoria were such great hosts.

This house is incredible and has everything you need to enjoy your stay in Punta de Mita. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Cristal del Mar is nothing short of amazing! Was my first time in Punta De Mita and it was a welcome change of pace from the insanity that is Sayulita. The house was clean, spacious, perfectly located 2 min walking from the beach and 10 min walking from restaurants. We also went into the Four Seasons for dinner one night which was only a 5 min drive. Curt and Victoria were very accomodating, having Pati (chef) and Candy (cleaner) there every day made it even more awesome. Highly recommend!! One side note on Punta de Mita is don't expect a fully built up city like PV or Sayulita. It's a very small town with only a few restaurants, no bars, most places close at 11, and when you first get into the city it feels a bit unsafe (roads are terrible). I did feel very safe walking around but not a whole lot to see.

This place is the best in Punta de Mita. It is a piece of paradise! Don’t think twice about it - book it!!!
