We stayed during the week of New Years and had our family in Mexico join us ranging from several…read moreyoung ones to older folks. It was the perfect location to meet our needs of a large family gathering that was easy to get to and close to local towns where we could explore. There are so many things that we loved about this property and we can't wait to get back again! There's a little something for everyone from games, hammocks, to cooking in the wonderful and authentic cocina. The view, wow and then we were fortunate to have a full moon during our stay which just added to the beauty and lights at night. The spaciousness of the home, accommodations to meet our large group needs and openness would be hard to meet anywhere else. The kids of course loved the pool, we couldn't get them out! As far as the staff we saw the property manager on our first day, he walked through everything with my husband and was readily available when we arrived to show us up to the place. He responded quickly if anything arose during our stay. The cleaning staff was really great. Above and beyond tending to cleaning and tidying up for us. Everyone was super friendly and we felt safe and secure on the property. I wish we would have been able to experience the chef services but we chose to do our own cooking as most of our family is local to Mexico and are some of the most amazing cooks! But I am certain any chef services would have been great as when we arrived we were greeted with some tasty Guacamole and Pico de gallo. Since our stay was pretty short and we were more focused on family time we didn't partake in any of the available adventures but hopefully will do that next time. We explored Lo de Marcos (closest to the property, small, the beach is fun), San Pancho (my favorite of all the towns, cool hippy town like Saylulita but close and fun), Guayabitos and La Penita (we like the restaurants and shopping here). two of which my husband and I have been to several times. We enjoyed the diverse and differences of each town. We felt safe and relaxed on our stay and hope to return again. Working with the home owner prior, during and after our stay was wonderful and professional. The house is beautiful and we look forward to returning soon. Tip- Get your groceries at one of the big super markets in Nuevo Vallarta on your way to the Property. There are some small markets in a few of the towns near but it's best to shop on your way.

Villa Boda met all our needs. There was plenty of space for everyone, the place is just beautiful,…read morethe kitchen had just about everything we could need to prepare meals or snacks. The daily cleaning staff and the property manager were absolutely the best. The villa is perched up on a hill about 10 minutes from the beach. You can see the ocean from the villa. Villa Boda is easy to get to from the airport. And there are several big supermarkets along the way to shop for groceries. We've been to Puerto Vallarta several times but this time we wanted to venture North, away from all the tourists and we're glad we did. The beaches are either empty or just a few people, locals on holiday and a few tourists. There were plenty of fun activities to do in the area. We rented a high clearance car from Hertz and it was very easy to get around (some of the smaller towns have dirt roads). We are considering coming back with both our entire families for a family reunion. In addition to Villa Boda there are currently two other villas for rent.

The staff for accommodating and fabulous English skills for our waiter which was extremely helpful and we had a delicious fish dinner. They change the menu up in Oil every day he saying something different every day the menu is changed to keep everything fresh and unique and variety for the hotel guests and for droppings like us... Special touches included lovely candles on everybody's table, that our fabulous waiter turned on simultaneously with a hidden clicker, which was a nice touch... You definitely can't beat the view and it had a beautiful pool, and there was some thing about the inside tiny lobby and library and sitting areas that was quite charming and adorable and very very unique... The location is north of Punta. Mita and I have a car. He would be well advise to have a car rental rather than a taxi... For us, it was a romantic stroll along the warm sand beach to walk back to her place... One interesting thing was I noticed when I was getting loose on the first floor looking for the bathroom somebody had left their hotel room totally open which to me was shocking, I would never leave my hotel room door open to other guests and visitors for fear of theft, but evidently this place instills trust!

Gorgeous, Gracious, Delicious, Perfectly Maintained Beautiful "Casita" in the most gorgeous beach (literally a few steps from the waves) in the area-service second to none! This tops every relaxing trip I have ever had-even better than Bora Bora. With a maximum of 8 beautifully appointed and sparkling clean rooms (16 guests) you will be outnumbered by staff (but never see them unless you need something they appear like magic) and will enjoy the quiet all adult environment. Yes it is all ADULT with no children which please make note of! If you don't have children or need a break from yours it is magically quiet with the exception of margarita glasses toasting and waves crashing. Even though it is "small" it is like staying at a magic castle with every detail in place including the swim up bar, tequila bar, and many different types of pool seating and cabanas. There is a library with games and tons of reading material in case you need some entertainment while you are there. This is perfect place to do nothing or enjoy the areas fine fishing/zip-lining/horses/sight seeing/golf. Literally the beach door pours you out onto perfect sand a "clean" beach and the surf is right there! Bathrooms/showers right as you return to clean up is perfectly planned out. The drinks are primo and strong, wine top notch, 3 meals a day were different and absolutely delicious everyday, the mini bar/snacks are stocked in the room, Gonzalo the chef and his helper's cuisine were so amazing we ate out once and never went out again. Each meal will be served (unless you want otherwise) sitting on the deck over looking the ocean and gorgeous sunsets. Did I mention this is an all inclusive resort ? Yes all inclusive meaning no signing, wondering how much to budget each day, tipping, pushing servers, or any worries till the end when you pay your balance and generously (because they deserve it!!!) tip the staff to the owner/manager so no awkwardness. If you have ever been at another all inclusive or cruise you will know what I am talking about. The water is purified meaning we brushed our teeth, bathed, and ate every last delish vegetable (raw) and not one person in our party ever felt anything but perfect. The grounds are beautifully maintained-I think there is a person who just goes around perfectly trimming leaves everyday! They can arrange for on-site facial/massage or truly anything else you wish. They packed up a lunch/drinks/goodies for a day of fishing and were extremely accommodating. One of my favorite parts is the three perfectly maintained, groomed, behaved, delightful small pups they have on the property. Besides their sweetness you would not even know they were there unless you seek them out! Mark the owner is top notch and has mastered the art of the perfect place to vacation! I know I am going to miss someone (sorry we loved you all) but Robert, Mauricio, Francisco, Charlie, David, (another fabulous server in the afternoon/evening who knew my Rose Vino Preference), and all of the fabulous maintenance/cleaning/kitchen crew were like family-we miss you and can't wait to return!

Just steps away from the beach, we had the best of both worlds- our own private pool and the beach all in what seemed like our backyard! Our private chef, Jesus, was phenomenal. Every dish had a flare of Mexican authenticity, fresh and packed with wonderful flavors. The only odd thing is that when you are in the penthouse, the elevator opens up directly into the unit. So, the maids and chef would already be inside the unit without you even knowing it. But, they were all so friendly and courteous to make sure they weren't disturbing us. The private roof top pool made all the difference to this trip. Loved, loved, loved it. This was vacation as it should be.

The staff is exceptional (special thanks to Oscar, Juan, Arturo, and Lola), and their warmth elevates the entire experience.

Dining is a highlight all on its own, with incredible food and presentation at every meal. And having not one but two beaches just steps away is the kind of luxury that spoils you for anywhere else. Villa Estrella Mar is unforgettable. If you're considering it, go. It's even better than you're imagining.

This place was ok. Hospitality appeared to be good. Helped with our bags upon arriving, friendly,…read moreincredible view, etc. The reason for the 3 stars is the jacuzzi jets were not functional. This was the whole reason we booked room 1. Room 2 directly above, was the same cost with functioning jets. We asked if there was any compensation they could help with or possible discount on any other services and we were told no. They were also aware of the jacuzzi not functioning prior to our arrival and said nothing. We had to discover that ourselves. One of the many reasons i tend to avoid local hotels, and would rather stick to my mega brands like Hilton. There is also what appears to be a very loud night club of a hotel called "Concha's Chinas sunset view". It's directly behind the hotel and blaring music until after 1AM. This looks to be new, but super annoying. No reviews talked about this. Would not stay here again.

A worker was outside my windows while I was getting dressed--a total invasion of privacy. * On top of everything, I felt like I was in prison because you can't leave the hotel without a worker letting you out. It was scary and weird. This stay was chaotic, dirty, and handled with zero professionalism. Management clearly didn't care. For the price, this place is an absolute joke. Do not waste your money here. You're better off anywhere else!
