⭐Elegant Small Hillside Villa, Ocean Views & Private Pool with Terrace

Casa Montaña is jewel-box style home, a private villa, overlooking Banderas Bay. It features a luxurious master suite and patio perfect for sunset viewing, slightly smaller guest suite and patio and an incredibly inviting private pool surrounded by tropical flowers. Its quiet location in the exclusive Conchas Chinas neighborhood, near Old Town Vallarta , makes it a perfect honeymoon haven or vacation getaway for up to 4 adults. The villa is tucked into a lush, tropical hillside. You'll awaken to birdsong and butterflies dancing through the flowers. Later in the day, viewing a stunning sunset on the patio while sipping a margarita or a glass of wine could easily become your favorite pastime. ***On this site, I want to offer some help in looking for available dates for your stay. When you select the dates that you want to stay on our calendar, if the dates don't correspond perfectly, it can appear that we are full, when we are not. You will need go to the calendar page, scroll down all the way to the bottom and then you will be able to see what the availability truly is. I wanted to share this information with you in the beginning of the listing so you don't give up on us. We have a minimum number of days that we require for each booking, in each season. Sometimes available dates are less than the minimum number asked, in which case a booking is fine. We ask for a 5 day minimum booking, we may only have 3 days available so those 3 days are open to book. Pardon the interruption and please continue reading about our villa......... The villa is professionally & meticulously decorated in sophisticated Old Mexico style, and equipped with modern amenities and housekeeping. Keeping in mind that many of us are now working outside of our offices, we offer excellent wi-fi throughout the villa. Casa Montaña graciously integrates indoor & outdoor living. Three sets of French doors open from the living room to embrace the large terrace and the inviting azure water of the pool. This private haven is a short stroll to the Conchas Chinas white-sand beach and an easy walk or taxi ride into Puerto Vallarta's Romantic Zone, also known as Old Town. With its picturesque gardens, cobblestone streets, galleries, shopping, restaurants, nightlife and music, Puerto Vallarta is a great walking town. The villa is managed by Admin Homes of Puerto Vallarta, they ensure the pool, grounds and all other physical aspects of the villa are well maintained. Additionally, the Admin Homes staff is available on site to help our guests, should anything come up that requires some assistance. Maria is our new chef and housekeeper. After many years of amazing service, our wonderful Flor has retired. We appreciate the many years she devoted to us. Our primary goal remains the same, taking care of our guests and allowing them to relax in an environment that is lovely, peaceful and restorative. Not only does Maria see that you enjoy fresh linens and daily bathroom tending, she will also prepare her delicious culinary specialties upon request with a little advance notice. Maria and our staff respond as quickly as possible to address our guests' questions or concerns. Maria is a talented chef --
if you wish, she can prepare a full breakfast of huevos rancheros, pancakes, omelettes or whatever you desire. A small charge per person is required for her to prepare the meals and guests are asked to purchase the food that they would like to have prepared. A continental breakfast can be prepared for $4 per guest. Other options are: a per person charge for the following meals; full breakfast $8, lunch is $10 and dinner is $15.

Maria's cooking specialties as well as cookbooks are available to help in menu planning. She is flexible and truly enjoys making sure our guests are pleased and content. Since Maria's arrival, she is receiving rave reviews from everyone that has stayed with us.

**** Our new Cancellation Policy -- due to Covid-19 or for any other reason. In the event the virus makes travel unsafe and/or a guest chooses to cancel their booking, we will refund the deposit for the full amount, provided it is 60 days or more in advance of the arrival date. If cancellation takes place inside of the 60 day requirement but not less than 30 days, the guest is refunded 70% of their deposit.

Fantastic Villa in a Charming Neighborhood
We had an amazing vacation in this gorgeous villa recently. The place is beautifully decorated; the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable; the private pool and patio areas are fantastic; and Maria's cooking is out of this world. Frankly, we stopped going out to eat, as nothing could compare to Maria's dinners! All around fantastic experience!

Nice Place - Poor Communication with Host
The villa was nice and well stocked. Maria prepared one dinner for us that was great and came to clean and did a great job. The downstairs A/C did not work and the outside grill did not work. We pointed this out to the host, but nothing was done to address these issues and neither was working when we left. Communication with Sandy was horrible. Sometimes it was a week before we had questions answered. We were given a credit of $200 for Maria to prepare meals, but were never instructed on how to use this credit (after we asked). Our initial booking was mishandled which cost us extra for having to rebook airfare. Although the villa was nice and well appointed, we would not stay there again due to poor communication with the host.

Beautiful home in Conchas Chinas
Great stay in this beautiful home. Kitchen was very functional. The property was as beautiful in person as it was online. I do not recommend booking transport and shopping through the property manager. I was charged more than quoted for the ride+grocery stop. Other than that, a great place. Easy to get a cab at the hotel across the street.

Great house, not great communication
The house was as advertised. Beautiful property with excellent onsite staff (who are there constantly, if you're looking for privacy). However, communication from the owner and concierge company was subpar. The AC was broken downstairs in all common areas of the house, a surprise upon arrival. AC was very important to our group due to a medical issue and we would not have booked a property that only had AC in the bedrooms. The first few days were uncomfortable. The second day we asked if it could be fixed sooner, received no response, and the third day someone arrived unannounced to look at the AC when we were about to leave. We canceled our plans. AC guy said he’d be back in an hour and never returned. After he left, concierge texted that AC repair would be coming that day. Two days later, after the heat had passed, the concierge finally contacted us again to tell us that AC guy was coming back and asked if we would be around to let him in (and wait for him to finish, I guess). Seriously? The house is beautiful, the house staff were very nice, but the concierge messed up our arrival airport transport, provided incorrect info about drinking water in the house, and the AC was a problem. Most vacation rentals include an info binder and that would have been useful. Checkout time is 11am, but expect staff to arrive hours earlier on your last day and start cleaning around you, mildly annoyed that you're still there.

Magical Getaway
Sandy and her staff were so friendly and amazing. The property itself was magical and warm and inviting, and had all the amenities one could need. There was a restaurant across the street for convenience. My family and I can't wait to come back!!

Wonderful Villa in Conchas Chinas
We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely villa! Very nicely furnished. Maid & grounds keepers are very nice & unobtrusive. Maid comes about 9 which for us is a little early, but she only comes every other day so we could sleep in the other days. View is beautiful..fyi, there is a big radio tower across the street which is the only thing not pretty about the view but that is not the owners fault. Very relaxing getaway. We will stay here again.

Fantastic Vacation at Casa Montaña
This was our fourth visit to this dream villa and we loved it even more than before! The private pool, ocean views, quiet neighbourhood and proximity to the old town make this a perfect destination. Sandy and her team made our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. We really enjoy coming here and will continue to do so when we come to Puerto Vallarta!

Very nice property, easy access to all locations as long as you have the Uber app which made it very easy to get around. Only problem was water pump at house went out and didn’t have water for 24hrs so no toilets or shower our last full day there. But other than that great time at the beaches, restaurants and shops. Would do it again.

This was a hidden gem in Puerto Vallarta. My wife and i have been to Puerto Vallarta numerous times and have stayed at different Hotels and Condos but for us this was the best of the best. Maria the housekeeper/chef was awesome and treated us so well she felt like family. We will definitely stay here again.
