A charming condo with a beautiful pool terrace and view
We spent nine days in this condo during pride week in PV. In addition to being close to all shops and clubs, we enjoyed being a bit away from old PV (15 minutes walk), which prevented us from being disturbed by music and people talking late into the night. If you want to explore the whole Mexican neighborhood and experience everything it has to offer, this is the perfect place to stay. Because the neighborhood is on a steep hill, walking to the condo requires relatively good physical condition. Your workout for the day will be this. Despite the walk, the terrace view is worth it. It was a pleasure to work with Alejandro, the property manager, and all communication went smoothly. I suggest updating the pictures from the terrace since the view has changed due to a couple of buildings that were built. A shower remodel might also be necessary in the near future. This condo is a place I'd consider staying again in the future.

Beautiful pool!
Very nice apartment with a gorgeous deck area and pool! Managers were very kind and prompt. The pool pump had gone out over the holiday weekend, so we didnt use the pool for our first two days, but Javier got it up and running for the rest of our week. PROS: Heated pool. (We opted to heat the pool so it was nice to enjoy in the am's and evenings. Its a huge pool so I totally understand the additional cost) Walking distance to beach, restaurants, and boardwalk. (Kitchen is set up to cook, but your so close to so many restaurants, we ate out the majority of our time there. Everthing was super clean, comfy bed, hot water, and cable TV for in the evenings to watch a movie. Theres a little store right below you for ice and mixers. (They have filtered water at the apartment if you'd like to make ice) CONS: The stairs! But you get used to them. (If you can't climb a ladder, you probably shouldn't book this spot) To view the sunset, you'll need to walk down to the beach. There's 2 large condo complexes between your deck and the sunset, so depending on time of year, you may be able to glimpse it between the 2 bldgs, but probably not. There is construction going on across the street, which when finished, will look down on the pool and sun deck, but they have plants and umbrellas to block a lot of it, just sometimes there will be noise. We enjoyed our time here and the heated pool! Thank you Andreas & Javier for a comfy stay in PV

Amazing rooftop
You will spend 90% of the time on the amazing rooftop area. The other reviews are correct, it is noisy with the owners dogs, chickens, and construction but you get used to the sounds quickly. Safe area close to everything but still an authentic neighbourhood will stay again.

Nice Stay
This was a very nice place to stay. The rooftop pool and patio area was used a lot. It's not a far walk to the restaurants, shops, and beaches. A challenge we had was with how loud it was in the morning with the roosters and dogs barking. We found that closing the windows and sliding doors helped quite a bit. The noise wasn't an issue outside of that. We would definitely stay here again!

Thanksgiving in Puerto Vallarta
Javier was a great host. He was extremely friendly, and helpful and kind when we lost one of his keys. The back patio and pool was really big for two people, which includes a grill, a furniture set, and lounge chairs. It was a short walk down to the beach which has many restaurants and bars.

Perfect Stay!
Alta Vista was the perfect setting for a relaxing and private vacation! The outdoor area is amazing! You can follow the sun or the shade all day with comfortable seating, great views, and strategic (and beautiful) landscaping. The pool is exactly as shown, private with beautiful views. The kitchen is well stocked. The bedroom is quiet and comfortable. The condo both inside and out is very clean and well maintained. We had cleaning service twice and the pool was serviced, too, but very quietly we never knew when! The neighborhood is wonderful with a quick walk downhill to the town. The location is perfect to enjoy all that PV has to offer! We can't wait to return!

Beautiful pool
The pool and patio are beautiful! It was too cold without heating it, that costs $25/day and was essential when we visited. The photo of the view from the pool in the ad is dated - new construction has blocked some of that view of the ocean, sadly. The indoors caught the smell of cigarette smoke from a courtyard or another unit in the building. It might not bother smokers but it did affect us. And I would join the other reviewer who cautioned that the toilet isn’t private. The toilet wall and door do not reach the ceiling so someone in bed can hear every toilet noise as well as if they were standing beside the toilet. There are two mini marts on the block of the condo that were convenient, and we were a short walk to the neighborhood shops/bar scene and a totally reasonable walk to the beach! Despite the cigarette and bathroom problems, the pool and patio’s beauty made it a great stay.

Andreas and Javier's property was wonderful. It is a quick walk to the beach, great restaurants and pretty much anything you need. The outdoor space is beautiful, we enjoyed the pool and just soaking up the sun. The people in the neighborhood are friendly and kind. We felt safe everywhere we went. We loved the taco stand right below the property! This is a great place to stay when in Puerto Vallarta! Our thanks to Andreas and Javier for sharing their home with us!

Pool, terrace, and views are stunning. The interior is on the small side
The terrace is simply fantastic. It has great views of the city and the exterior furniture offers comfortable places to lounge, sit, or eat. There is often a nice breeze but when there isn't there is a super powerful fan to help you stay cool. The interior is smaller than I thought it would be. The toilet and shower are only about 5 feet or 1.5 meters from the bed. They are separated by partial walls so you don't see into them from the bed, but you hear and smell them. If you use them while someone is asleep you will probably wake that person up. Because the rooms are small, the AC cools them down in about 5 minutes, which is great. The living room and kitchen area is comfortable for 2 people to cook, relax, and eat. The kitchen has good cookware, serving dishes, and storage containers. The location was perfect for us. It is close enough to the touristy beach area to walk there if you want fancy dinners and stores. But there are lots of less expensive, local-focused places that are closer. We enjoyed a mix of both, so living just outside the tourist area was perfect. Although its wonderful for a vacation, I would not recommend working remotely from the house. I never found a comfortable spot to use my laptop for extended periods, so I switched from the kitchen table to the couch to the outdoor table every hour. My husband rented a desk at a nearby co-working space, which he loved. If we have any work to do next time we come back, we will definitely do that.

Beautiful pool, sundeck, and neighborhood.
The pool and sundeck exceeded our expectations. Much more stunning than the pictures. We loved the neighborhood. This is the "real" Vallarta instead of the tourist areas. Such friendly people. Small store across the street for necessities, larger one 100' away with most everything, and a taco stand in front of the condo. Javier was extremely attentive to everything. No problems at all for the entire stay. If you have a problem with stairs, this might not be the place. A little hard the first day but after a few days it was much easier. The pool was crystal clear all the time and the cleaning lady was excellent. Must have been 50 potted trees and plants around the sundeck area so it looked like a garden. We loved listening to the many busy roosters all day, everyday.

Amazing
A long list here. Pictures are accurate. It’s better than the pictures. I’m embarrassed to divulge that I don’t remember cleaning lady’s name. Thorough, inobtrusive, pleasant and professional. All of our time was spent on terrace. We have no idea if the TV works. Only reason for the four star location is the hill up to property. That fact is made very clear on the web site so this is not a negative comment. Uber. Cheap, reliable and we used it a fair bit. The store 50 feet over is better stocked than the one across the street. Several homemade products that are very good. Good people at the taco stand. Coffee, sugar and powdered creamer on site. Handsome rooster walking around the sidewalks letting all know he’s alive too. Javier. A charming gentleman. At arrival carried heavy suitcase for us. Shared a cerveza. Stated and clearly meant it, “this is your home now”. Two suggestions. Some spices for cooking and sharp knife or two. Or some way to sharpen knives. We don’t really want to go back to Calgary today, it’s COLD there, but I’m sure Javier doesn’t want to adopt us full time.

Well as everyone else has said it is at the top of the hill and there are a lot of stairs but it was really not that bad. Roosters and dogs all day long but you get used to it. Walking distance to everything (beach, malecon, restaurants, cathedral,markets, bars, stores) and cabs everywhere if you don't want to walk. The condo has everything you need including ac, laundry and housekeeping service. We used the barbeque several times. Good sun throughout the day and the pool was awesome.

A vacation to remember!!
From the moment we landed and made contact with Javier, we were set for a great Holiday. Javier met us curb side and helped us with our bags. We are not going to lie, there are stairs up to the unit, many stairs, but it is so worth the climb. The condo has a gorgeous private terrace, a large pool with an extraordinary view and full sun for most of the day with comfortable patio furniture to lounge around in. The unit itself has all kinds of amenities , however you'll end up spending most of your time on the terrace. The area is within walking distance to beaches , wonderful shops, and amazing restaurants, and just about everything you will need. Uber is available. We had the pleasure of meeting quite a few of the local neighbours and found them all quite friendly. Book this and you'll have a great holiday. Many thanks to Javier and Andreas

I was greeted by Javier upon my arrival, he helped me with my bag and gave me instructions. I must say he was a large part in why I enjoyed staying here. His dry sense of humor matched mine perfectly. The condo is modern, well equipped and very clean. There is a taco stand in front of the building and a bodega across the street. You can walk everywhere from the condo. Best restaurants, shopping and the wonderful beaches! The outside patio and pool are fantastic. The perfect place to lounge, sunbathe, swim and cool off after the trek up the hill and stairs. Beautiful sunset views as well. This is not the place for you if you have mobility issues or are terribly out of shape. I ate very decadent dinners nightly and didn't gain a pound! Love it

outdoor pool area is great, inside is very clean but not plush or comfortable for an extended indoor stay. We spent our days exploring pvr or in the pool and very little indoors. The walk up hill and stairs is a steep one but if you want a panoramic view of town then you need to do it. We were prepared as it is clearly stated in listing . Host was extremely friendly and helpful . My only slight complaint is that the condo overlooks an internal courtyard that is owned by the host who has a few dogs . When they are in the courtyard their bark echoes . it sounds like they are next to you . We were woken early , twice , to the sound of them Would this deter me to stay again ? No . I would just ask the question about the dogs and ask that they stay indoors till at least 8am

Beautiful & Private Outdoor living, dining and BBQ area, a short walk from city services.
If you enjoy having your own space, pool and privacy, then this may be for you. This beautiful outdoor living space is located up a steep hill, requiring good walking shoes. Going downhill is great; coming back can be challenging. Six to eight city blocks from restaurants and shopping. Convenient shop one block from your door. Great A/C; wish bedroom & WC were not down circular stair; living & kitchen area on same level as pool. Great value for amenities and location.
