A huge boho chic style house! Full of handicrafts and well-maintained spaces that invite you to enjoy the spectacular nature of the jungle, with unparalleled ocean views from the pool. Ana and Michel, thank you so much for all your fine attention and recommendations! I would return to the house many times! Highly recommended! Congratulations!

We had the most amazing time here -- the property is so beautiful and comfortable. Ana and Miguel were so wonderful and cooked really delicious food. It's walkable for those who like to walk, and always easy to order an uber. 100% would recommend!

This beautiful villa in Amapas was the perfect setting for longtime friends to relax and enjoy time together. The views over Banderas Bay are breathtaking, the infinity pool is a highlight, and the layout gives everyone space that was inviting and comfortable. Miguel and Ana, the caretakers, were wonderful. They shopped for groceries and cooked daily meals for us, and even with limited shared language we communicated easily with a mix of Spanish, gestures, and translation apps. They are warm, attentive, and genuinely kind people who added so much to the experience. Toward the end of our stay there was a regional security situation that prompted temporary precautions in the area. Miguel and Ana shared updates, reassured us about safety, and navigated the uncertainty with calm and care. The host was also gracious and reassuring, kindly allowing us to extend our stay an extra day until things settled. Overall, a beautiful property with truly thoughtful care. We would absolutely return.

The photos do not do this property justice. Feels like you’re tucked away in the jungle, with beautiful ocean views from 3/4 of the bedrooms. Two of the rooms are in a separate building. The house is very open to the outdoors so I was worried about insects and critters, but it wasn’t an issue! If you’re a light sleeper bring ear plugs as some of the nature was noisy at night (mostly chirping geckos). Miguel and Ana were amazing. Communication was a little limited before arrival, but they made sure we had everything we needed, we didn’t want to leave the house! Paying extra to have them shop & prepare our meals was well worth it. My group had mainly seafood but they made vegetarians option for me as well. Miguel even packed some of his incredible home made salsa macha for us to take home. Both of them are Spanish speaking so it helped to have someone fluent in our group. Recommend having pesos on hand to pay Miguel for groceries as he pays with his own money until he is reimbursed.

By far one of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. Experiential luxury at its finest.

If you want to stay in the Zona Romantica area of PV, do not hesitate for one second to rent Claudio's house. Like the other reviews, the photos do not do justice to how nice this place is. It is truly a one-of-a-kind, beautiful house.The outdoor area with the pool and al fresco dining area is amazing. We spent most of our time out there. It also has huge rolling glass doors that almost fully open, so even the inside feels like the outside. In late December, the weather was perfect for this and we never really closed the doors. The two housekeepers, Miguel and Ana, were AMAZING! They took care of everything: amazing breakfasts, afternoon snacks, and we even had them prepare two dinners, magically all of our laundry was clean when we came back from our adventures, and they gave us the best recommendations for outings and transportation. (Spanish) The one thing to consider is the specific location: Zona Romantica is walkable, but VERY hilly. The walkable beaches are good, not great.

Our family of 8 (4 couples) was extremely happy with this place. Miguel and Ana were perfect hosts. Highly recommend you ask them to make you ceviche upon arrival—you’ll thank yourself later. The home was the perfect backdrop for beautiful evenings relaxing in the pool.

Truly a peaceful, rustic pearl, in the midst of nature yet close to town. The pictures don’t do it justice at all, it is a beautiful villa and pool, with great views. As long as you’re ok with a bit of wildlife around you (e.g. geckos), you will love this place. The breakfasts and lunches were amazing, and we felt really well taken care of.
