Un Regalo del Cielo Is absolutely stunning. Impressively appointed and decorated. The place is spotless and the view cannot be beaten Check in and check out with Angel added a nice personal touch. Thank you
Everything about this place is great. The door opens right out to the pool which is shared with the few other units in the building. The roof level is private to the unit and offers breathtaking views. It was a pretty easy walk to the beach or to other nearby attractions. Uber and Uber Eats deliver. The staff was also quite ground helpful.
The location was perfect blocks away from the market, downtown and the beach. The view is amazing saw Moma whale and calf breaching with a simple travel set of binoculars I took. The condo is one of the cleanest I have ever stayed at. They provided housekeeping mid stay and the service was exceptional. Condo is well stocked, the heated pool and patio are really nice and new. The private patio upstairs was my personal favorite. It is lined with beautiful pots and plants it is shaded, has a bathroom, a bar, music player and has the best view. No reason to leave the condo
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The condo was fully equipped. The views are spectacular and the location central. Would book again for sure. Thanks to Rich and Angel for making this a wonderful holiday. tjisn
This just might be my new favourite place to stay! Lovely penthouse and rooftop, exactly as described. Very well equipped and super comfortable. Perfect for sharing with friends, as both bedrooms are identical. Lots of good restaurants in the area.
We loved staying here. It is exactly like the pictures and the apartment was clean and well-stocked. Angel was wonderful at our check-in. The neighborhood is definitely gentrifying but still felt authentic, and you are just a short walk from the beach and amazing restaurants. One thing to be aware of is that there are a lot of barking dogs in the neighborhood. We got used to it but if you are a very light sleeper you may want to make sure you bring what you need to get sleep.
At age 90 and after a heart procedure, this penthouse was my ideal stay. The view is outstanding. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with everything you might need, The three LARGE TVs and the privacy are superb.
This property is a plus - PLUS PLUS
Great place in PV - penthouse with great views. restaurants in walking distance, best restaurants within 20 minute walk, Zona Romantica within 30. On the top of a steep hill so be ready. Neighborhood loud, especially on Xmas eve when our neighbors partied until 4 am. Only issue was the water pressure varied some. We'll go again!
We had a wonderful stay. This was our 4th visit to PV, and easily the best combination of lodging and location. The condo is light and bright with great views day and night. It comes well-stocked with plenty of extra towels, a full kitchen, and coffee. The location is very walkable with a nearby market and great restaurants; checkout Meno’s, Azul Celeste, and Cookie Star. An easy 30-minute walk gets you to the Romantic zone. We really enjoyed the private rooftop terrace, although the common area pool was barely used by any other guests. The washer and dryer were an added bonus. We are already planning to visit again next year.
You will not at all regret your time at all at un Regalo Del Cielo. This penthouse condo was everything and more and it was the perfect place for our group of four to ring in the New Year in Puerto Vallarta. You will certainly enjoy the modern layout of the condo with all its amenities and the private terrace will be the absolute perfect place to hang out and work on that sun tan, drink some margaritas and just enjoy the beautiful views and weather of Puerto Vallarta. Pictures don't do this place justice, and you will find yourself wanting to stay forever and never leaving!
Communication with Rich and Angel was seamless, they took care of everything for us, from advance grocery shopping, to welcoming us at the penthouse to booking in-house private massages for us. Definitely book this place, you will love it!
Vert clean and spacious. It's the penthouse unit of a small apt bldg. The pool is shared with other units but there are blinds to block the windows. It was seldom used by few adult people and wasn't a problem. The unit is at the top of a steep hill and getting to town was about a 15-25min walk, depending on where you're going. Dogs are barking throughout the night but they offer ear plugs which help. Elevator or stairs available to top floor. Otherwise, super clean and all the things you would need. Beds were great, towels smelled good. Roof deck has a great view. Really nice place!
I could not love this condo more! The view from both the roof and the penthouse are unlike anything I’ve experienced. Sunsets from the roof are spectacular with each day better than the last. We actually need to plan another visit to explore PV more because I never wanted to leave the condo. It provided the perfect R and R. Angel, the property manager, was kind and knowledgeable. He was responsive to our needs and made check in and check out move smoothly. Laura outdid herself with the property’s cleanliness. Rich, the property owner, communicated well making sure that we were prepared for our stay and accommodating any initial needs upon our arrival. As our first family VRBO experience, this team has set the bar high!
One recommendation- when we return, we will not rent a car. Uber is a much better option as parking around town can be challenging.
Our stay at this Penthouse in Cinco de Diciembre was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, We were impressed by the entire place. The location is great just a 10 minute walk to the beach, great restaurants & bars, along with local shops. The neighborhood feels safe and vibrant, with lots of local charm. Our nightly stop was El Anzuelo (The Hook) right by the beach on Honduras, The owner Miguel is a great guy and all the patrons were super friendly.The property itself was clean, spacious, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The kitchen was stocked with utensils, pots, & pans, making it easy to cook when we felt like staying in. The living room had a comfortable couch and a large TV, which was perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. The outdoor terrace was a highlight, offering a private area with a fire pit, hot tub, & grill to enjoy the warm evenings and the view of the surrounding area.The property manager Angel was incredibly helpful and responsive. He arranged transportation to and from the airport, then met us at the property to give us a walk through. Angel was quick to respond to any questions I had, making the whole experience seamless.Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better stay! If you're planning a trip to Puerto Vallarta, this property in Cinco de Diciembre is the perfect choice for comfort, convenience, and a taste of local life. Highly recommend!
We usually stay in Zona Romantica a bit further south in PV but decided to try something new. We loved this place, as well as the neighborhood 5 de Deciembre.
The penthouse condo is amazing! Very light and bright, great layout with the living room, dining room, gorgeous kitchen - all with great views over town and the ocean beyond. Two king bedrooms each with its own bathroom were great! Plenty of room for clothes and stuff, lots of hangers in the closets, comfortable beds, nice sheets and pillows which was awesome. I’m picky about beds and pillows. Location was super. We love to walk, and walked all over town, down to Dee’s for coffee and fresh raspberry scones and cinnamon rolls! Walked to arts district and ArtWalk which was fantastic. Good restaurants all over the place. We liked having Meno’s on the next block as they had dependably great breakfast and dinner and impeccable service. It was handy having it right there, and again great views!
Yes it’s noisy in PV. That’s part of the experience being someplace different and full of life! We brought a little Bluetooth speaker for white noise at night and worked like a charm.
Owner/manager just wonderful - we can’t wait to return! Thank you Rich and Angel!
The pictures on VRBO do not do this condo's location justice. The views, especially the sunsets were spectacular. Having our own private terrace above the condo elevated (no pun intended) the experience and as a result we spent every morning and almost every evening enjoying the scenery. The location was perfect because we were within walking distance to local markets, grocery store, and many restaurants and food stands. We were able to cook many wonderful meals as a result of easy access to food.
The condo itself is modernly finished but remains cozy and inviting. Everything was clean and no bugs. A nice perk was the location of the pool just 4 steps down from the condo and although the pool was so close, we were never disturbed by anyone enjoying the pool and deck when we were not.
Security was not an issue, as access to the building is truly restricted to only those staying there. We always felt safe regardless of the time when walking the streets. Speaking of walking, the streets on either side of the condo are steep, and a great source of exercise. We would occasionally see people taking a break half way up the hill. By the time we left, the hill was easy to manage and a great source of exercise, especially after some awesome local tacos.
Our only complaint is that the condo is not available for the same time frame next year! Its already booked.
Everything about this property id amazing!!!! Angel and Rich are some of the best host ive been around. The condo is well stocked, very clean and exactly like the photos!!! The location is fantastic, as well as the residents and neighbors of the building. By the time we left, we knew everyone in the building by name!!! The property sits right on a hilltop which gave us amazing views. We will definitely be staying here again, how could we not? The property is amazing!!!
Amazing place, fantastic location with awesome restaurants just a block away. Rich and Angel where amazing and quick to respond … also, place has EVERYTHING you need to stay as long as you want !! BIG THANKS …
Steve
Everything you might need was in the kitchen and extras. There is a Ley Supermarket maybe six blocks away we went to many time. When you go out the door from Ley there is a cart that has soft serve ice cream cones. My wife and I always got an ice cream almost everytime we walked by. The place was awesome even though lightning took out the WIFI for our whole trip. Just used my wives cell phone as a hot spot so I could work and we could stream movies on the TV. We will definitely stay again. You can walk quickly to downtown and if you need to go farther, it is just 4 blocks away to catch the bus for 10 pesos.
If you are looking to experience PV like a local but in 1st class accommodations, this place is for you. The property has everything you could possibly need, in a great location with incredible views. Smooth check-in process, good communication, and they coordinated airport transportation. There is some noise from construction and dogs but it's expected as you are in the city, not some resort. EVERYTHING is close, beach, grocery store, coffee shops, bars, restaurants, Malecon, that's if you want to leave the place. The shared pool is steps away, private patio with chairs, hot tub, etc make it tough to leave. Felt very safe the whole time. Would stay here again next time in PV.
This place was awesome. Rich (owner) and Angel (prop mgr) were great and easy to communicate with. This was truly a home away from home, everything you would need is here. Spices, coffee, chip clip bags! EVERYTHING. Plus, there was a wonderful gift basket of fruit, chips and a bottle of wine upon arrival. They really are thinking of the guest experience here. You are in the heart of the neighborhood, which includes some of the noises. None of it was bad. At night, we used either the provided Alexa or used our phone for background sleep noise and slept well. Speaking of Alexa, there is one in each bedroom, living room and awesome upstairs deck. Hung out in the hot tub while watching the beautiful sunset/sunrises. There were games, floaties for the pool, movies - anything you need. It is located towards the top of the hill, so put your walking shoes on (if you choose). We got Uber's all the time as well, no issues. Local market near by if you want to stay in and cook (because seriously, kitchen is top notch) or restaurants / taco and churro stands near by if you want to get out there. 100% recommend and we will definitely be back. (Ate every damn hotdog on the plate) heh.
Really can’t say enough about this fantastic light filled, airy penthouse condo. Great views from the private large rooftop too, which also gets plenty of sun throughout the whole day (and shade if necessary). All appliances and (private) BBQ are top notch quality. Bedding and towels were higher end materials and very comfy. Pool is shared, but often not always in use from other residents. Hosts (Angel and Chris) were super attentive, responsive and gracious. Can’t wait to book again. Definitely will be back. Thank you!
