Hola, friends!!! We are SOOO excited to finally sit down and share the real story behind what we do here in beautiful Puerto Vallarta! If you’ve been looking for a place to stay, you’ve probably seen a million listings from giant corporate property managers. You know the ones, they have hundreds of units, sterile lobbies, and customer service lines that make you wait forever just to ask where the extra towels are.
But that is NOT us! We are a local, family-run business, and we wouldn't have it any other way! When you book with us, you aren't just a reservation number in a database; you are a guest in our home town. We live here, we love it here, and we want YOU to fall in love with it too!
The Heart and Soul of Our Family Business
Let’s be real for a second, traveling can sometimes feel a bit "cookie-cutter" these days. You stay in a place that looks exactly like a place in Miami or London, and you lose that sense of MAGIC that comes with being in Mexico! That’s why we started this journey. We wanted to offer puerto vallarta condo rentals that actually feel like Puerto Vallarta!
Our business is run by Jeff (you might know him as the pvkid!) and our tight-knit team who treats every single condo like it’s our own. We aren't some faceless corporation based in a skyscraper three thousand miles away. We are right here in the neighborhood! Whether we are checking on the vibrant Mexican textiles in your bedroom or making sure the granite countertops are sparkling for your arrival, we put our hearts into every single detail.
Why "Local" is a Total Game Changer!
Have you ever arrived in a new city and had no idea where the best coffee is? Or which beach spot has the coldest Pacificos without the tourist trap prices? When you stay with a corporate giant, you might get a printed pamphlet that hasn't been updated since 2019.
When you stay with us, you get the INSIDER SCOOP! We are talking about the hidden gems that only locals know about. We’ll tell you exactly which stand has the best al pastor tacos in Old Town (which is the same wonderful neighborhood as Zona Romántica, we love them both!). We live for these recommendations because we want your vacation to be AUTHENTIC.
Plus, being family-owned means we are flexible! Need a little extra help or have a special request? We actually listen! We don't have to check with a corporate board of directors to make sure you’re happy. We just do it because we want you to have the BEST time ever!
The Perfect Location: Amapas, Old Town, and Beyond!
One of the things we are most PROUD of is where our condos are located. We focus on the most vibrant, walkable areas of the city. If you’ve read our post More Than Just a Place to Sleep, you know that for us, it’s all about the experience.
Imagine waking up, grabbing a fresh mango from the market, and taking a stroll. If you’re staying in one of our spots in Amapas, you are in for a treat! It is such a beautiful, lush area, and the best part? It’s only a 10–15 minutes walk from Amapas to Los Muertos Beach! Yes, you read that right! You can be sinkin' your toes into the sand in no time at all!
Step Into Your Home Away From Home
We put so much love into the design of our condos. We want them to be bright, airy, and full of life! Forget those boring gray hotel walls. We love color! Think turquoise sofas that match the ocean, orange accents that mimic the sunset, and local wood details that bring warmth to the space.
In our bedrooms, we make sure you feel the spirit of Mexico. We use stunning, handwoven Mexican textiles and artisan tile accents that make every room feel special. It’s all about creating a space where you can truly relax after a day of exploring. Whether you’re a digital nomad looking for a vibrant workspace or a couple on a romantic getaway, The PVGirl has something that will make you go "WOW!"
Living Like a Local (The FUN Way!)
When you stay in our apartments, you aren't just visiting; you're living here! You get to experience the daily rhythm of life in the Zona Romántica. From the sound of the ocean breeze to the smell of fresh tortillas in the morning, it is truly an immersive experience.
We love hearing from our guests about their favorite moments. For some, it’s the "Golden Hour" walks along the Malecón. For others, it’s finding that perfect little cafe that becomes their "usual" spot for the week. We actually talk about this in our blog post From Morning Cafe Stops: there is just something so special about the routine of vacation life in PV!
No Corporate Red Tape, Just Personal Connection
The biggest difference you’ll notice is the WARMTH. We aren't here to just "manage a property." We are here to host friends! We love meeting people from all over the world and sharing the magic of our city. When you send us a message, you’re talking to a real person who knows your name and knows exactly which condo you’re staying in.
We take HUGE pride in our maintenance and cleanliness, too. Because we are a family business, our reputation is everything to us! We don't cut corners because we want you to come back year after year. We want to see your photos on Instagram and hear about the amazing dinner you had at the spot we recommended!
Come Join the Family!
So, if you’re tired of the same old corporate travel experience and you’re ready for something real, authentic, and SOOO much fun, come stay with us! We have worked so hard to create spaces that reflect the beauty and energy of Puerto Vallarta, and we are just dying to show them to you!
Whether you want to be in the heart of the action in Old Town or tucked away in the beautiful hills of Amapas (remember, only a 10–15 minutes walk to the beach!), we’ve got the perfect spot for you.
We are constantly updating our spaces and finding new hidden gems to share, so make sure you stay in touch! We can't wait to welcome you to our family and show you why family-owned is ALWAYS the way to go in PV!
See you soon in paradise!!!
