It is located just one floor above Home Of The Dolphins on the roof and is simply fabulous! Its VRBO listing number is 116585. You will have a great time no matter which of my 2 great properties you choose for your vacation.

NOW ONTO THE FUN PART OF DESCRIBING MY HOME
MY WONDERFUL HOME, which I have named Home Of The Dolphins (Casa De Los Delfines) is directly on the water overlooking the Malecon.
IT IS LOCATED in the Middle of Downtown Puerto Vallarta 2 blocks from the main plaza, Plaza Grande, and because of that is walking distance to virtually every shop, restaurant and attraction that Puerto Vallarta has to offer.
Its perfect for parties of up to 4 people, and of course is completely air-conditioned. Our building is 4 stories and has both elevator and stairway access. Home Of The Dolphins is located on the 3rd floor and the swimming pool is located on the roof (the 4th floor).
THE VIEW IS FABULOUS, looking south all the way down the coast to Cabo Corrientes and north all the way to Punta Mita, the northernmost point of Banderas Bay. The dolphins delight in swimming directly in front of my terraza every day (hence the name 'Home Of The Dolphins'), and early in the morning the local oyster divers collect their day’s catch on the rich reef in the crystal blue waters directly in front of my home. With its abundant underwater sea life, snorkeling and swimming are unsurpassed in this area.
BOTH BEDROOMS HAVE OCEANFRONT VIEWS, and the sunsets are truly amazing. If you are like me, you will spend both mornings on my main terrace, drinking your coffee and eating your breakfast watching the divers work and seeing the various seabirds hunt for their morning meal, and your evenings eating dinner at my handmade dining table that is situated outside on the covered balcony. You will delight taking in the 180 degree view of the ocean and coastline from one end of the bay to the other. Every night there is a fireworks display that is mounted from the Spanish galleon named the Marigalante, and usually the ship passes about 500 feet away from my balcony when it starts its show.
There are 2 King-size bedrooms each with its own bathroom. All of the bathrooms are hand-crafted in granite and marble. Both bedrooms have Flat screen cable TV/DVD.
English speaking Managers and staff.
WE ALSO HAVE Free Wi-Fi High Speed Internet, so just bring your laptop and connect through your wireless connection and you are ready to go surf the Internet at no charge anytime of the day or night.
HAND HEWN GRANITE countertops accent the custom designed kitchen, which is complete and has all the amenities to make preparation of meals a delight. UV Filtered water, Microwave, Blender, Coffee maker, 6 Burner gas stove, Large side by side refrigerator and dishwasher are all there, and various spices are always on hand.
THE SWIMMING POOL is located on the roof of the building, just one floor above me,
so just walk out the front door, take 30 steps to the elevator, press PH and you will be standing next to the pool, and the water is always warm and the view is unforgettable.

Its name is VITEA, and you will be delighted when you have your lunch or dinner there. It is truly a 4 star restaurant and believe me, their Margaritas are the BEST in town!
THINGS TO DO!! Virtually every water sport is available for you here in Puerto Vallarta. Also, there are horseback rides that take you back into the jungle where you will see waterfalls and flocks of parrots flying overhead. Golf is a major attraction here with several world-class courses.

This apartment is wonderful- it puts you right in right in the middle of the city, walking distance from everywhere. Hearing the waves is an incredible experience, and the balcony is everything. We later stayed at a hotel and resort and ultimately preferred our stay at michel’s to the other two.
10.0 / 10.0
The location of this condo was superb! The views were amazing, you don't need a rental car because there are so many restaurants and sights to see within walking distance but if you did need a ride there are taxis everywhere waiting to service you. This trip was more for relaxation for us but there are plenty of activities to do and all along the Malecon you can find someone to help you book an excursion if you choose to do something last minute. The condo is comfortable, we had the pool to ourselves everyday. The owner was very nice, he called a week before our trip to confirm everything, his step-daughter met us upon arrival and walked us through and made sure we knew everything we needed to know and they were available throughout our stay should we need anything. Very nice folks. We will definately return to stay at this property. Thank you.

Everything was perfect and more than I imagined. Sassia, the manager is wonderful and very attentive. The door man, Alfredo really made us feel safeand was such a gentleman. I enjoyed meditating often on our terrace and the views from the rooftop pool are spectacular. Staying here is truly the perfect location to really feel the magic of PuertoVallarta. I can't wait to come back! Gracias!

Our group had an amazing stay at this condo and could not be happier with its location, decor, and amenities! If I return to PV, I would absolutely stay here again. The host, Sassia, was an absolute pleasure, who took us on an excursion to a beautiful secluded beach and waterfall. It was definitely the highlight of our trip! The host was very communicative and friendly with us before and during our stay. 5/5 review

Directly above the malecon, we sat on the deck and watched the action. The romantic zone is only blocks away (the entire RZ is easily walkable). If you want to go elsewhere, a taxi stand is one block away. 24-hour (very friendly) security staff allow you in and out ensure total security. I would highly recommend.

What a wonderful place for our week long vacation. The unit is absolutely beautiful. Great location with walking distance to all popular beaches, attractions, bars, shops and restaurants in the town. It has everything we need. The internet speed is surprisingly super fast. I was able to take a few zoom conference calls for work with no problem at all! Cooked a few times and had candlelight dinner on the huge balcony watching the ocean and sunset. Absolutely breathtaking. The rooftop and the swimming pool are beautiful overseeing the ocean and mountains. We couldn’t be happier and definitely will choose this place again when we visit in the near future.

If you want to experience the best of Puerto Vallarta, the location of this condo is perfect. Its right next to the Malecon boardwalk and a few minutes from the Romantic Zone. There are tons of restaurants and shops in very close proximity. You are located right on the esplanade/oceanfront where we were able to see all the street vendors and families every evening. There is also a really great restaurant on the ground floor of the building. Every night we were lulled to sleep with the sound of the ocean waves. The condo itself was a little quirky, but had everything we needed for our vacation. Highly recommend!

Michael’s place is exactly as advertised. They were very helpful at checkin and gave me lots of advice in terms of fun things to do. The balcony was great and the views were nothing short of epic. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a higher end property in the area. I stepped into some drama that dampened my experience….ran into some bad actors and my girlfriend got really upset. None of this had to do with the property, however. Top notch.

This condo is in an excellent location, with plenty of food options nearby, close to beach access, and has an incredible view from the balcony. The pier is close by where you are able to go on fishing trips/boat tours/snorkeling, and other excursions. We had no issues with the unit, and were checked in on several times throughout the week. Highly recommend this spot!
10.0 / 10.0
The view is second to none. The area had everything we needed but wasn’t too busy which was great. The condo is incredibly spacious but our favorite part of the stay was getting to know Sassia. She was extremely helpful in getting us everything we needed and her food recommendations were spot on.

I had been looking for a good zoned property in PV to celebrate and vacation for my 40th since February. I finally booked The House of Dolphins in June and I’m so glad I did!
First, it’s right on the Malecón, amazing view, security is there 24/7. Shout out to Agustin! You do have to buzz to get out and that was the only thing we didn’t like.
BUT!! From the time you get onto the elevator and walk to the Home, you open the doors and it’s just like on the pictures posted.
The beds are Super comfortable, they have plenty of towels, kitchenware, extra sheets and pillows.
The rooftop pool is AMAZING specially at sunset. You got the beautiful pacific in front and if you turn back you got the big green jungle hills.
The building has an OXXO (convenient store) for easy needs. Everything is close by.
The Devils Bar, La Langosta Loca, and L’ Angolo Di Napoli we’re some places we frequented while we were there.
We took a Luxury yacht and snorkeling excursion with Vallarta Adventures and it was so worth it.
Only a 15 minute taxi ride to the port from the place.
It was a memorable amazing time and if and when we go back, I will definitely want to stay here again.
Thank You so much for having us.
It was a beautiful memorable birthday!

My wife and I stayed for a week. The location and view are outstanding. The communication with the owner was great. If you want to stay where you are close to the action and the culture look no further. You are on the Malecon but we had no problem sleeping. Great rooftop pool and met alot of friendly people.

This was our first time in PV, and Michel's property was FANTASTIC! Location is super central, the condo was the perfect size for 4 adults and one baby, and the ocean view is simply unbeatable! Michel and Sassia were beyond helpful, especially as we were traveling with an infant, and made everything super easy. We will be staying here again when we travel back to PV.

Our family of four adults has a very enjoyable stay at the "Home of the Dolphins". It is super centrally located to all the fun things to do in downtown Puerto Vallarta - right on the waterfront with only the, always entertaining and enjoyable, Malecón to see in between. The location is perfectly situated for fabulous sunsets from either the large balcony, or from the rooftop pool shared patio.
The condo itself is very well appointed and a perfect fit with two bedrooms and two baths - two king beds. The entire unit is air conditioned, but most of the time, while we were there, the sea breezes were so enjoyable that we left the large sliders to both the master bedroom and living room open. Furnishings are comfortable and make for great relaxing. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of dinnerware and utensils, cookware, and appliances.
Access to the unit can be had via an elevator lift, but we usually took the easy stairs up to the third level for the exercise. The condo building has 24 hour, friendly and helpful staff/security and it feels very secure and safe. The surrounding area is always abuzz with activity with it's central location on the Malecón. There are endless shops, restaurants and vendors to visit and we loved people-watching this lively venue from our balcony.
PV in this area feels very safe and we walked everywhere daytime and night. Lots of local families enjoy the Malecón as well and so there is always lively entertainment and fun things to see and do!!

This condo is lovely and the view is spectacular. It was a beautiful way to spend a vacation overlooking the bay and the sound of the waves. The pool upstairs is perfect to cool down in during the day after strolling the malecon. The downtown culture is so much fun, especially the food stalls in the square in front of the church. There is always something going on there, from the weekly Mexican dancing, to clowns, to just enjoying the language and culture. The only downside for us was the business of the Malecon at night. It was Semana Santa though, so it was extra busy with many more people than usual, I think. In any case, it was all well worth the stay. Lovely place!

We've stayed at many VRBO properties, and quite a few in Mexico. By far, this has been our best experience. The condo is spacious, modern, secure, clean and has everything you need. The owner and management team couldn't be better. Even though right on the bustling Malacon, the nights were quiet, and we easily heard the ocean waves crashing with all of our doors and windows open. After many attempts to glimpse whales both in our home state of Oregon, and here, we spotted them in Banderas bay on numerous occasions for an added bonus!
First class!

Had a great time at your beautiful condo. What a fabulous location for not only people watching on the Malecon but so close to wonderful restaurants and shopping. Your security guard couldn’t have been more charming! Thank you again for allowing us to experience your home!

Always something to watch. Whales, sunsets and cruise ships. People and entertainers along the Malecon. Close to terrific restaurants and fun bars. The Malecon stays active until late in the evening. It can be loud at night so if you’re sensitive to noise, bring earplugs. The fabulous views and location more than compensate for the noise.

This property is exactly as shown in pictures provided. The unit was beyond my expectations and my family was thrilled as soon as we walked in the door. The owner (Michel) and property manager (Sassia) were quick to respond to any questions I had raised during our stay and accommodating to any request I had made to accommodate sleeping arrangements for my 4 year old grandson. We were in the unit for New Years Eve and could see the fireworks right in front of our deck. Every meal we had was on the deck where we could see and hear the ocean waves. Since the unit is overlooking the malecón, it was interesting just to watch people as they promenaded by. We even saw a couple of whales breach in the ocean one afternoon. The unit is very nicely decorated and even the dishes reminded me of Mexico. Very classy indeed, I would definitely recommend this unit and should I return to Puerto Vallarta, I will happily stay at this unit.

I picked it because it looked like a happy place and how I pictured a traditional Mexican home to be. The openness to the balcony was wonderful and where we spent most of our time watching life go by. I can't wait to go back.

Great spot in Old town. Being right on the Malecon you would think that the noise would be too much, but having the spins of waves kind of took over every other sound. My cousin and I loved it! Sitting on the deck watching all the fishing boats head out in the morning, until the amazing sunsets at night , there was always something to see.
Great spot, nice pool,, not a good “gym” well equipped and clean condo, comfortable beds, and above all , best location ever 😊 we had a great time

Thanks for checking in Michel! We had a wonderful time – thanks for sharing your place with us. The location is perfect and your home is well appointed. Me and my family couldn’t have asked for more. This was my third trip to PVR and we loved it so much that we are thinking of buying a vacation home in the area. Thank you for enabling such a wonderful experience for us

We booked this for our 25th anniversary and it did not dissapoint. Views were tremendous, condo is spacious and has everything you need. Location on the malecon is great for those who like shops, restaurants and being near popular areas.
It is a short walk to a couple of beaches, and access to the pier is nice for taking water taxi to other beaches (Yelepa). Getting to other places around Puerto is simple by taxi, but everything you need is close by.
This was an amazing place to stay and we loved every minute of our week there.

Vacation in Puerto Vallarta
We had a great time. The Condo is very nice and we enjoyed the views and the space. Thanks for all the advice and information it was very helpful. Sassia and Idrish were very helpful as well! We really enjoyed the pool on the rooftop too!

Ideal Puerto Vallarta accommodation!
We had a wonderful time and the condo is lovely. A great kick off to our stay was the wonderful greeting and orientation that we received from your children. They were warm, inviting, full of information, and very thorough. We kept in touch with Sassia via e-mail throughout the stay. We did not use the air conditioning since the breeze was so cooling and spent a lot of time on the patio enjoying the activity on the Malecon. The security guards in the building were also very friendly and professional, especially the one who was there most days during the day (missed getting his name....). We so enjoyed the cultural experience and the all of the great people that we ran into as we explored the city. We will definitely be back to PV. Thank you again! "
