Insta: PTown2PV

Originally designed by AD 100 Architect Peter Bowman, this Fully Staffed, 5,000 sft, Luxurious Beachfront Villa in Conchas Chinas in Puerto Vallarta rests proudly in the center of Amapas Beach. Marea Alta sits behind us on the hill above. Take a 10 minute walk by beach/ road to Playa Los Muertos & the Romantic Zone. This is a private home. There are no shared amenities. The Pool, Terraces, etc. are not shared. The Villa features 3 master suites w/ private baths, two trundle beds and an additional small (11'6 x 8'4) lower level room with sleeping for 1 or, in a pinch 2, good for a teen or nanny. Villa Marea Baja is fully staffed with English speaking Concierge, Houseman, Chef, & Maid. Staff prepares 2 meals per day of your choosing. Guests pay for food (about 10% less than U.S. prices), and alcohol. Concierge does all shopping for you and provides receipts.

The Villa features white interiors, Slim Aarons Photography, a more open concept, new wet bar, Hotel Collection Bedding, Beach Chairs, & Snorkle Gear. The private infinity pool accents the terrace overlooking Banderas Bay. This private villa is the beach front sister property to Villa Marea Alta.

Truly the experience of a Lifetime!!
Staying at Villa Marea Baja will no doubt go down in history as one of the best travel experiences of our lives! 7 of us came to celebrate our 40th birthday year and 30-35+ years of friendship and this property was the perfect environment to facilitate comfort, fun, excitement, adventure, pampering, exploration and beauty. Not to mention the colorful and vibrant Mexican culture! PLANNING - so smooth and informative from the first email I received from Monse @ Mexi Travels. She accommodated menu requests, shopping requests, custom cake ordering, ALL transportation to and from our adventures, two bookings of in house spa treatments and at least half a dozen special requests after arrival. Always just a text away. ACCOMODATIONS - Think Architectual Digest Worthy. The open air home is stunning!! Materials, furnishings and decor are authentic, classy and beautiful. The windows open to the most amazing oceans views and sounds. The house plants, the table settings, the glassware, the beds, the tile... I cannot say enough. Your jaw is sure to drop upon arrival and honestly the enjoyment of the ambiance never faded. THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE WHO RUN THE VILLA - Tony, Humberto and Anna are 3 of the most kind, hardworking, genuine, sweet, talented souls. The flavors, the service and the care they gave us left us all with tears in our eyes. We are forever grateful for the hospitality. Puerto Vallarta Villa Marea Baja will change your love for travel. We are so inspired to return!

EXCEEDED ALL EXPECTIONS!!!!
We were celebrating our 40th Wedding anniversary with our children. There were 7 of us (including our 2 yr old granddaughter). From the time we arrived, and were greeted at the door by the amazing staff (Anna, Tony & Humberto) w/ fresh cold washcloths, welcome drinks and appetizers, until we left (7 days later) we all felt like we were in an amazing dream. Villa Marea Baja is more than just a destination, it is an experience. For our family, it was a trip of a lifetime. Thank you also to Monse (our concierge) who was so helpful in organizing transportation and massages. THANK YOU! Jill & family

Villa Fun
Eight of us spent 6 days at Villa Marea Baja in early April. The villa was amazing. The three bedrooms on the second floor were fantastic. The waves lapping on the beach at night were perfect. The 4th bedroom is in the basement and tiny and probably shouldn’t be considered except in a pinch. The staff were all great and the food was very good. We spent a lot of time in the pool and almost none on the beach as it was overrun by beachgoers. Didn’t consider that the local families were all off for Easter. We all felt very safe and it wasn’t a major issue, but did get noisy.

This was a very special place for our family to spend some quality time together. It was so hard to leave the property. It is even better in person than the photos show online. The staff went above and beyond to take care of everyone and we all felt very spoiled. We had a two-year-old and a six-year-old and the staff made sure that they had something to eat and drink at every meal. Plus the Strawberries and lime popsicles were a big hit. Anna brought the girls a little gift and homemade cookies. She’s very sweet. The location is spectacular. The meals and margaritas were so delicious. This is the first time we have ever had a staff taking care of us. It was phenomenal. The absolute best thing we experienced was our son proposing to his girlfriend/fiancé on the beach below the property. It was beautiful and so exciting. We want to thank the owners, the staff and Puerto Vallarta for the wonderful and memorable vacation ❤️

Great Beachfront Villa!!!
This villa is lovely and we are so happy with our stay! The highlight of the villa is the breathtaking view and the superb staff: Humberto, Tony, and Ana treat you like royalty and execute their jobs to perfection with genuine kindness and expertise! The heated infinity pool is AMAZING! The advantages of choosing a beachfront villa are obvious: easy access to swimming, beachcombing, and seeing whales every day!!! I was less aware of the disadvantages: the surf at PV is thunderous so at night most guests will need earplugs, and the beach right in front of the property is small and busy on weekends and holidays. Since the villa is so close to the beach you will get frequent whiffs of cigarette smoke and cannabis and unfortunately despite the surf and earplugs we were woken twice at around 3 a.m. by drunken tourists who were screaming and swimming. The concierge company did a poor job with the airport pickup, we were not met as expected and the instructions provided were wrong. They were very professional when I gave them feedback. The grocery bill was ~1100 USD for breakfast, dinner, and happy hour (2 bottles of liquor) for 5 of us for one week. Consider bringing pesos to pay for groceries/any activities because the concierge company charges 5% to use a credit card and provides a low USD exchange rate. Ana kept the villa spotless! No issues with flies, mosquitoes, or ants, and no one got ill. We would come back in a heartbeat!!!

Daughter's 30th birthday!
Outstanding beachfront Villa with tons of privacy! From the time we walked in, it took our breath away ~ better than the photos. We traveled as a group of 6 for my daughter's birthday and had plenty of space for everyone. Everyone loved how the staff greeted us in style and continued to pamper us throughout our stay. Our chef prepared amazing meals to the point one of our scheduled nights out we chose to stay in. 5-star vacation experience!

Beautiful older home with great staff
Our 3-generation family stayed at this beautiful home for a week. Overall we had a nice relaxing stay. The architecture is stunning and the location is perfect: right on the beach, but private and secure. The back patio and pool are amazing. But what made our stay most enjoyable was the staff, Tony, Umberto, and Anna, who went above and beyond every day. There were also some significant problems. The home is older and needs some repairs. One bedroom toilet didn't work but was repaired. There was a leak in the ceiling of another bedroom and it rained often. The balcony door on a third bedroom leaked water inside when it rained, ruining a computer left on the floor. One of us got locked in a bathroom because the door lockset froze. We had to remove the door from its hinges. The kitchen needs some serious attention. Many of the appliances need to be thoroughly cleaned and upgraded. There is no sink disposal so food waste is put in a trash bin in a cabinet which is not tightly sealed, attracting lots of flies. The flies were constantly in the kitchen, often landing on food being prepared. There were tiny ants throughout the house: in the bathroom sinks, on the floors, and even inside our laptops. 6 of 9 family members got travelers' diarrhea even though we only ate at the house, so the home's water filtration system might be an issue. This house has the potential to be superb. But it really needs some repairs and upgrades. The dedicated staff was what made our stay enjoyable.

Perfect family vacation
We had an absolutely amazing stay at Marea Baja! Tony, Humberto, and Anna took such good care of us from the moment we arrived. The property is beautiful, with the pool and fresh food and drinks right there, and the beach steps away, it is hard to even want to leave to go out to dinner or explore PV! Tony and his crew went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, including finding Nutella for our very picky 7 year old! We loved absolutely everything about this villa and are already planning a return trip to the same villa next year!
