Villa Ventana: 7 Bedroom Luxury Villa with Staff included

Villa Ventana is a modern Mexican architectural masterpiece perched on a hill above Los Muertos Beach and Vallarta's historic Old Town commanding unobstructed views of all of Vallarta and the entire Bay of Banderas and the Pacific Ocean beyond. Throughout your stay you will be pampered by our English speaking local staff including our House Manager Lette, Assistant Manager and Concierge Yoshi, and our professionally trained Master Chef, Eugenio. While our staff are not on site 24 hours a day, they are available at any time if needed. Our staff work Monday through Saturday with the chef preparing two meals of your choice daily. You only pay for the groceries and we do all the shopping for the finest ingredients. If you arrive or depart on a Sunday there is no additional charge for meal preparation otherwise it is availble for a small fee.


We take great pride in our exquisitely prepared cuisine and will be in touch with you prior to your arrival to confirm your menu selection for your arrival dinner. All other meal choices can be selected after arrival, with the exception of meal preparation for events in which case we would like to plan further in advance. We also have a full time spa therapist on staff, and our House Manager and Assistant Manager/Concierge are always available to assist you with local reservations and knowledge, and of course to deal with any issues that may arise. The owner are also always available by phone or text.
The typical guest day goes as follows. Breakfast is served between 9 and 10:30 (or other times if preferred by guests). At breakfast, our House Manager or Assistant Manager review and confirm the menus for the following day as we shop daily for fresh ingredients. Quite often our guests go to the beach, shopping, or partake in tourist excursions during the day and eat lunch outside of the villa - but of course our staff are available to make lunch for in house guests. Early in the afternoon our guests tend to start making their way back to the villa while our staff are preparing drinks and snacks. Dinner is usually served in the early to mid evening hours by our Chef and one other staff member who stay through dinner service and clean up before leaving the villa for the day. Note, this is just a typical example. We of course have many guests that rarely venture from the villa, while others seem to be more on the go.


As the owners live in Seattle and New Zealand when not in Mexico, we are also available via phone, text or email 24/7. In the 23 years that we have been renting our properties in Vallarta, there have only been a handful of occasions when we have been called upon to assist with issues. The reason for this is that our staff are trained to the highest of standards, our managers speak excellent English and are masters at problem solving. Quite often though guests have significant contact with us (the owners) personally prior to their stay assist while planning their itinerary and making local recommendations.
Our location is a big part of what makes Villa Ventana so magical with unobstructed panoramic views from every room in the villa (with the exception of the media room). On either side of the villa are large lots that have not been built on and are native jungle. We own one of the lots which we acquired to insure our space remains private. We are in a residential neighborhood, but walking distance to town, beaches and restaurants. The majority of our guests do not rent cars and prefer to walk or avail themselves of taxis or Uber. Walking distance to town/beaches/restaurants is about 10 minutes or a 2-3 minute taxi/Uber ride.

Puerto Vallarta Paradise

Our stay at Villa Ventana was absolutely amazing. We were a group of 11, and the villa offers stunning views of the ocean and all of Puerto Vallarta. The property is well appointed with spacious common areas to gather as a group while also offering quiet corners and nooks to sit privately to relax, read or just take in the spectacular vista. The house staff was so attentive and accommodating and indulged all of our culinary and other requests. We all agreed this was one of our best vacations ever and we look forward to a future stay!

Amazing bachelorette trip!

My group of girls and myself stayed here for my bachelorette party. We had the absolute best time. From the moment we entered the villa we were treated like royalty by the staff. The meals that were cooked for us were top notch and more than what we could have asked for. Lette was so helpful setting up our rides from the airport and coordinating all meals. The property itself is gorgeous and offers views from every single area of the home. Don’t think twice about booking this villa. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Heavenly

The property and staff are excellent. All our expectations were met, however we found it more than a 10 minute walk to the beach and Old Town, however this did not detract from our stay. Lette, Raphael and Eugenio were professionals, yet made us feel like they were part of our family! One of the staff experienced a life cycle event during our stay and we all celebrated the event! The meals were excellent and the housekeeping also, led by Cosafina. Ron was easy to work with and had good suggestions. Would recommend and return to this property in a heartbeat! Steve

A Little Piece of Paradise

This was our second stay at this gorgeous property with amazing views from the hill overlooking Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay. The recent renovations, changing an apartment into new suites, are beautiful. Our party of 9 was treated like returning royalty by Letti, Raphael, and the rest of the staff, who provide outstanding food and drink services. The villa is enormous, with beautiful shared spaces and plenty of private areas. The pool and spa tub where kept at the perfect temperature, and we spent a lot of time in them. We love Villa Ventana and highly recommend it!

This is a rare find in PV - the house and location of house was perfect.

I can’t say enough about my experience at Villa Ventana. The house is modern, updated and luxurious. The location couldn’t be more perfect. The house is perched on a hill in Amapas and offers the best views of PV. The staff was one of the best parts of my stay. Letty and staff were professional, friendly and warm. The food was always good! I also loved that the owner and staff was super responsive via email and text. If you are type A, this is THE villa for you.

A gem by the ocean

Puctures do not do Villa Ventana justice: it needs to be seen in person to be appreciated. And the staff are personable, professional, and skilled. We could not have asked for a better venue. Before we left we began planning our return. Top notch.

Amazing home, Amazing view

I couldn't have picked a better place for our large group of 14. The house very comfortable slept everyone, was in immaculate condition and THE VIEW was just amazing. In addition, the staff made us feel very welcome and were super responsive to some of our questions pre-arrival. Highly, highly recommended.

Don't hesitate - book ASAP!

We booked Villa Ventana for a 40th birthday celebration and had an amazing stay. The house comfortably sleeps 12 adults and everything you read about the house is true. It is first class quality, has amazing views, a great pool, good location, etc. The design of the house provides privacy and space for 12 people, yet also provides great common areas for socializing. The food was outstanding and Aurora the chef is their secret weapon! Aurora worked around a food allergy flawlessly and made our great stay perfect. The owner Ron is very helpful and is available by email and phone to help with any concerns. I highly recommend Villa Ventana and plan to visit again.

Viva Villa Ventana!!

It's a rare thing for something to live up to your expectations... and even rarer for it to exceed them. Villa Ventana, and more importantly, Ron, Fabian, Lette, and the rest of the staff, make for an incredible, memorable PV vacation. I planned a surprise, getaway vacation for my boyfriend a group of our friends with additional surprises along the way - and Lette and co delivered every step of the way (without ever feeling like they were in the way, might I add). In addition, a member of our group accidentally damaged some property within the home during our stay. Afterwards, Ron and Lette went out of their way to minimize expenses for us, which we are so grateful for. And finally, I must echo what reviewer Jeff said about the property... the photos do not do it justice. I will never forget walking in the door the first time. The place and the views are simply stunning. Do yourself a favor - stay at Villa Ventana - and give Lette a big hug from me!! Can't wait to go back.

PV Perfection!

Really, there is little other to say about Villa Ventana than it is a PERFECT place to stay when visiting Puerto Vallarta. The house is impeccably designed and decorated, the views are breathtaking, the staff is wonderful (and the food they prepared was amazing), and the owner Ron is very friendly and helpful. We never want to stay at a hotel again! Everyone we show our pictures to wants to make PV AND Villa Ventana their next getaway destination!

The Perfect PV Villa

This was our 4th stay at Villa Ventana. This home has the most spectacular open views of all of the bay and city. You have a beautiful view from any room or out door space. As always the food and service is spectacular. The cook is very accommodating and so nice on top of that. The staff disappears and is never in the way but available at a moments notice if you need anything. You will be left wanting nothing at the house. I will tell you the photos do not do the house justice. There is no way to experience without seeing it in person.

Enjoy Paradise

This beautiful property has been our bi annual getaway to paradise since we first discovered it a few years ago. As all other reviewers have identified, the house is spectacular, immaculately kept and supported by the most lovely and considerate staff. Lette and Aurora feel like our extended family now and cannot do enough for their guests. It is indeed a five++ star experience, comfortable and homey dispite the ability to accommodate lots of guests if needed, and has spoiled us from ever considering any other accommodation in Mexico. The location is ideal for those who love or are looking to discover PV including easy access to a wide variety of great local restaurants, a very nice beach, the Malacon, and the wonderful PV citizens. Or as we like to do - decompress by the large infinity pool and be mesmerized by the 180+ degree view of the Bay of Bandaras while whale and bird watching from this prime location. Our only reason to look forward to fall and winter this year is a trip back to Villa Ventena and will continue to do so as long as Ron, the property manager extrodinare, can accommodate us :).
