We were disappointed in our stay at this condo. It is in need of overall maintenance, a deep cleaning and updating. (The condo is wrought with cracked tiles and stained surfaces. The terrace chair cushions were barely useable as they show years of bird soiling on all sides. The master bathroom has no shower door. The couch in the living room has no stuffing left in any of its cushions. The faucets in the hall bathroom were all broken so that bathroom was not useable....) The condo sits directly above the main resort pool where the DJ's oversized speakers blast music and announcements throughout the day. The condo walls and terrace floor pretty much shake/vibrate all day long. *We specifically asked about the condo location before we booked as we knew that it is adjacent to the busier resort pool. We were assured that noise is not a factor. This is simply not true. In addition there was construction going on in the condo next door during our whole stay. The hammering started at 8:30 am and on some days went until 6:00 pm. The condo is spacious and the view of the ocean from the terrace is breathtaking. Once the pool speakers were turned off for the day and the construction noise ended, we were able to enjoy the outdoor space. We went on some wonderful excursions around Puerto Vallarta that departed from the marina which is down the street from Velas Vallarta. So we made the best of it. But nevertheless, the nature of the condo was not what we expected from the VRBO description and pictures shown.

We have stayed at Velas Vallarta a number of times and at this condo a number of times. The resort itself is a short drive from the airport and a cab ride from downtown. Velas is near the marina which is definitely a nice perk for location. The vibe of the resort is friendly and fun. The grounds are beautiful. This particular condo has a wonderful terrace that provides a great view of the mountains and the ocean. It is private and large enough to accommodate the entire family. The condo is spacious on the inside and comfortable. It provides everything we need. Paule is professional and a pleasure to work with. We love PV, Velas Vallarta and this condo.

A little late in submitting my review, but I wanted to say what a wonderful vacation we had with our 3 children (5, 14, 15) at the condo and Velas resort. We stayed for a week at the end of March, first time renting, and Paula was great to work with. Very responsive for any questions and minor maintenance issues, always available by phone or email during our stay. The condo itself is very spacious and comfortable, and fit our family perfectly. The balcony is amazing, we were out there everyday, and used the grill 2-3 times. We also very much enjoyed the resort, the kids enjoyed the beach, ocean, pools, ping-pong and various wildlife on the grounds. We walked to the Marina for dinners and to the grocery store for supplies. We would definitely stay here again, and hope to book another trip soon - thank you!

Stayed here for the first time this year. Was a little apprehensive about this as we had always gone through a travel agency. I need not have worried. Everything went off without a hitch. Paula is amazing. From my first inquiry, to the day we arrived, she was always as close as an email and answered any and all questions. Loved our suite! Paula came by once we were settled to make sure we had everything we needed. Can't wait to save up for our next vacation in this beautiful location. Thanks Paula for a truly memorable vacation.
