4.93 out of 5 average rating, 14 reviews20 months ago

La villa es muy agradable, sobretodo privada. Durante mi estancia no tuve necesidad de salir para nada, cuenta con todos los servicios y además es cómoda y lujosa. Sin duda en mi próxima vista, alargar mi Estancia. En el tema de mi perrito, también muy cómodo y contento. Para este tipo de lugares la mascota debe estar bien entrenada, mi perro es raza pequeña y esta acostumbrado a estar dentro de casa,por lo que no hubo problemas. La vista preciosa, la decoración y muebles son elegantes y modernos,todo funciona de maravilla. El agua de la alberca estaba templada.el personal es muy atento. Lo único que no me hizo sentir tan cómoda es la entrada a la villa,tienes que pasar por un corto pasillo qué se conecta al restaurante. Tanto para salida y entrada los comensales pueden. Pero en general todo estuvo de lujo. Lo recomiendo

Marítima: El paraíso de Richard

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 19 reviews1 month ago

Maritima is a FANTASTIC!! The condo is SUPER spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and plenty of dining space inside or outside. And stunning balcony and rooftop views! The entire property is well laid out with tons of seating options by the pool or ocean. The staff are friendly and super helpful. The downside is the location itself on the boulevard. Grocery and restaurants were a minimum 15 minute walk. Taxis are quickly available for 200 pesos each way. It would have been helpful if Richard made a booklet for guests with information re: grocery & restaurant locations, path to Bucerias, taxi info, TV info, and how to get more water & toilet paper. Having said that, he was quickly attentive to our questions and we had a FANTASTIC vacation!!

We really enjoyed our 2 week stay. Alejandro responded quickly to two problems which occurred and they were quickly fixed. Access to the beach was great with stairs and also a ramp close by. The king size bed was really comfortable and the linen, towels and beach towels of good quality. The apartment was beautifully tiled and the kitchen well equipped. However the toaster and microwave need attention. The pool was kept sparkling clean. There were many restaurants close by. We would stay there again.

Luxurious 2BR Villa w/ Penthouse 6th floor views

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 37 reviews4 months ago

We had an amazing stay at Calorine and Vince’s Villa La Estancia Penthouse! Everything was top notch! The unit is extremely well appointed and maintained. We only used 1603 A and the king bed was very comfortable. I’m pretty particular about the bedding, the bed was perfectly comfortable and we both had very good sleep. The unit is very private, we absolutely took advantage of the large terrace with incredible views of the ocean and the resort. We also loved the amenities. Best of both worlds. The comfort of a home with access to 5 star resort. The staff was always very attentive. We enjoyed walking on the beach to Bucerias. We are already planning our next family vacation and would love to stay at this unit again. So happy we found this gem! A minor inconvenience, it would have been nice to have essentials like olive oil, salt and pepper and dish soap, however, there is a small store where you can get these on the resort. Thank you for this lovely stay.
