I can’t express how grateful I am for the wonderful stay we had at Villa Encantada for my birthday weekend. Walter and Rene are fabulous, the house is gorgeous and the overall experience blew my expectations out of the water. Thank you so much for everything and I can’t wait to come back! I highly recommend this property to anyone looking to get away to PVR!

We couldn’t have stayed at a better place for our family vacation in Puerto Vallarta! Villa Encantada was everything we could’ve hoped for and more!
First off, from the beginning, Paul (the Owner of the Villa) was very accommodating and had great suggestions which played a vital role in planning the best vacation for us all. He made sure we were taken care of and that all of our requests were in order. Communication was a breeze!
As we were driven up the cobblestone street we immediately recognized our villa as we anticipated visiting it for months prior to arrival. We had a large party and it accommodated all of us comfortably. The Villa is beautiful!
Most of our nights were spent playing card games on the kitchen table, dominos on the patio, going night swimming, listening to the exotic birds from the jungle adjacent to us, looking at the views, and watching fireflies off the balcony or outside our bedroom windows. The views were truly exceptional.
Our days were spent outside the villa, but after a long day of shopping, sight-seeing, activities, etc., we couldn’t wait to get back to the comfort of Villa Encantada and Walter’s mouth-watering dinners. Our rooms would be clean and fresh, and our clothes would be washed/ folded for us thanks to Isabel. Walter and Rene would always be ready for our party with drinks and good humor. We even celebrated a very memorable birthday while we were there. Walter and Rene are the biggest pranksters, they always surprised us and we couldn’t stop laughing whenever they were around. Rene had the best recommendations for activities and arranged everything for us including our transportation which was always very prompt. He even helped get us some great prices on Coheba Cuban cigars.
Every morning we would wake up to the smell of some kind of wonderful food cooking in the kitchen and coffee waiting for us on the poolside patio…
THE FOOD: We loved EVERY single meal we had! The food was absolutely amazing! Some of our favorites (just to name a few) were the chili verde, mango crepes, coconut shrimp, bacon-wrapped shrimp, enchiladas and pozole. Walter is the best. Additionally, we had THE BEST burgers we have ever tasted, compliments of Walter (a.k.a. El Diablo).
MOST IMPORTANTLY, and what truly made our stay memorable, was the hospitality and friendship of Walter (El Diablo), Rene and Isabel. They are truly wonderful people whom we came to love! We were literally in tears when we left .. Best Vacation ever 😘

This was the best vacation we had as a family – We were a group of 10 ranging in age from 2 to 70. The staff was fantastic and they took great care of our needs. Villa layout is perfect for a family. The pool was one of the best parts – we spent hours enjoying it.

This is already getting a very positive publicity amongts our friends and relatives. Highly recommend it to everyone.

Paul – the owner of the facility from CA – is a great communicator and answered all of our questions/concerns. This was our first attempt at renting such a facility and we are sold on it. The staff – Rene, Walter and Isabel – made it so easy for us to enjoy our time.

I only wish it was nearer to beach for a short walk outside. The Villa is up in the hills and not easy to walk out to. But taxis are planty and available at a vary short notice and very inexpensive.

All in all a memorable week – Thanks to Paul and his staff,

From the moment we walked in we were treated by margaritas and Mexican hospitality. Truly a one if a kind experience in Mexico with great staff and beautiful views.

Ideal location for exploring PV and the boardwalk, I plan to come back every year.

Food prepared by the chef was excellent.

Price was a steal considering the quality of the house, attentive staff and location.

What an amazing time we had at Villa Encantada.

The villa is so beautiful and has an amazing view which we enjoyed every night while eating dinner on the terrace. The chef and house staff are so attentive and provide outstanding service. The chef is amazingly talented and prepared the most delicious meals every day for us !

If you want to be spoiled this is the place to go ! ! !

What an awesome place to relax in Puerto Vallarta. Friendly staff, delicious food, and so comfortable. All the rooms are beautifully appointed and have A/C and fans. Close enough to the action of downtown PV but far enough away to be quiet when you need a siesta. The pool & hot tub overlooking a spectacular view of the Ocean was a great place to unwind with a cocktail. I’m coming back!
