Guests enjoy access, along with up to 2 other apartments in Villa Amistad, to the villa’s shared heated saltwater pool overlooking the bay, two shared terraces, an honor bar, BBQ grill, and daily housekeeping (Mon–Sat). A Guest App with a guidebook is included with dining recommendations and activity planning. Smart Luxury Extras including concierge assistance for airport transfers, private chefs, and tours, requests for Priority Early Check-in, Late Check-out, In-house Massages, and more may be requested online after booking. A link is provided after booking.



Located in El Cerro, Puerto Vallarta’s original hillside neighborhood, Las Brisas is just a 5-minute walk to the Malecón and 10–20 minutes to Los Muertos Beach, the Romantic Zone, restaurants, nightlife, and galleries. The hill is moderate—Ubers and taxis are readily available for those who prefer not to walk.

Guest Access:

Parking and drop-offs

Guests can drive up to the house to drop off luggage. While parking isn’t allowed in the alley, street parking is available nearby on adjacent streets. Guests and friends have never had an issue with their cars.



The Neighborhood:

Villa Amistad is located in El Cerro, one of Puerto Vallarta’s original hillside neighborhoods overlooking Banderas Bay. Our small cobblestone alley is home to long-time Mexican families, many single middle-aged to older women, and a few gay men — a close-knit community where neighbors know each other and look out for one another. It feels authentic, lived-in, and safe.



Guests love staying here because they can enjoy the energy of the city, then return to a peaceful, local neighborhood that still feels genuinely Mexican.



Getting Around:

The Romantic Zone, Centro, and 5 de Diciembre neighborhoods are all within walking distance—most places are 5–25 minutes away on foot. The hill up to the villa is moderate; guests who prefer not to walk are welcome to use the many Ubers and taxis readily available and affordable in this area. Local buses run along the main roads below and cost 10 pesos (exact change required).



Parking is not allowed on Arroyo del Pedregoso, but free street parking is available on nearby streets.



Other Things to Note:

Concierge Services

Our local concierge, Faby, can help arrange airport transfers, private drivers, chefs, grocery delivery, tours, restaurant reservations, luxury beach picnics, and more. Full details are provided after booking.



Families

Families with children are welcome, but please note the villa is not childproof. There is an unfenced pool, open stairs, low railings, and breakable artwork and pottery. No children’s furniture or toys are provided.

We encourage parents to reach out before booking if they have questions to ensure the villa is a good fit.



Interaction with Guests:

Personalized Hospitality

We live onsite in private apartments, so we’re nearby if you need anything—without intruding on your privacy. You may see us around helping staff or maintaining the villa; occasionally we use the shared spaces, but only when they’re unoccupied and always with guest comfort in mind.



We're here to help as much or as little as you’d like—whether that’s answering questions, offering local tips, or simply ensuring your stay is smooth and relaxing.
