Super unuque place built on a hill. Lots of stairs but that wasn't an issue for me. Rooms have a full kitchen. Close to everything. Tons of character. I would definitely stay again.

Has great ocean views as well as beautiful property grounds on the outside. Was told there was a heated pool. Neither pool was warm enough to use. The room I was given had old worn out couch and bedding cover smelled of sweat. Pillows needed replaced due to smell and discoloration from it. No privacy in living area as the curtains were transparent because of rod being broken wear the curtains to provide shade and privacy were absent. Spoke with management and was dismissed. Traveling as a solo female these things matter.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. There were 3 pools and an amazing view of the ocean. The only problem i had was that the property is on the side of the hill so there are lots of stairs. Lots! But other than climbing the stairs i would definitely stay again.

Very clean casitas, beautiful views! Friendly and helpful staff. Got our cardio in with all the steps. Too many steps to our room... On site laundry and jug of water at low cost. Walking distance to malecon boardwalk. Make sure you get a room with air-conditioning. It can get hot 🔥 in vallarta. Our room had 2 ceiling fans and a nice cool breeze at night! Will be back soon God willing 🤗🙏. Thanks to Gerardo for the room upgrade! Very much appreciated.

Such a charming little place. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The traffic noise was excessive but the hotel can't control that! It would be nice if there were railings on the endless stairs for those not sure-footed. We would stay here again.

Be prepared for stairs
Very nice hotel with very accommodating staff. Ivon, the desk manager was exceptionally helpful and kind. The lovely building is in the hillside, so there are many stairs to climb, plus it’s uphill from the restaurants. Healthy, tho. 😜

We were told that it was one floor up to our room. When we got there, it was two floors up to get to the lobby. There were no railings on the side of the stairs, making it totally unsafe to try to ascend these two flights of stairs to get to the lobby. I had told the staff repeatedly, that one of us was handicapped, I feel like we were disregarded and lied to. Never made it to the room.

Nice place to stay. Their was no air conditioning in our place, ceiling fan in the living room. There was a window in the bedroom with a curtain but there was no glass in it. Maybe for airflow. But you could hear talking from people going up and down the stairs. Lots of stairs, our room was 120 steps up. We enjoyed our stay, staff was friendly.

We got there and our room wasn’t ready until about an hour later the receptionist was all over the place. The guest restroom was awful with old poop sitting on the toilet. We didn’t get our room cleaned because there was only one worker. We asked for more towels but those were never brought so we ran into the cleaning lady and got them. There’s no AC so one of the nights was not comfortable the other two the wind blew and the ceiling fan helped out. The refrigerator didn’t even work well the freezer worked better. The sofas were all dirty the bed was very uncomfortable and hard. There’s no elevator so there’s so many stairs to go up just to get to your room and after going down and coming up you kinda dread doing it again.

Beautiful Small Hotel
I stayed at Hotel Casa Anita for two nights. It was very clean and comfortable. Wear your walking shoes because there is no elevator at this picturesque hotel! It has amazing architecture, though. The steps themselves are beautiful! To economize, I stayed in the cheapest room, but I think I had the best view! I got to see the beautiful sunset over the Pacific Ocean. There is a picture of this great view online in the advertisement. There was no hairdryer in the room so I had to ask for one. Also, my room was missing the hotel book which informs you about what you need to know. The hotel is convenient to the beach. You just have to walk 5 minutes along the little road, which has a convenience store, and then turn left down the steep hill along the narrow street which takes you to the beach. That is about a 10-minute walk to the beach on a quaint, narrow shopping street. I had breakfast at a little place called "Coffee Cup", a nice omelette with egg and tomato, along with toast and fruit. Later in the day, I had a delicious fish dinner at a wonderful restaurant called "Si Senor", located near the bottom of that little street, and opens onto the beach, itself. The waiters were professional and friendly. My waiter, Luis, made me an excellent Caesar Salad to go with my dinner. Everyone at Hotel Casa Anita was so kind, helpful, and welcoming, including Geraldo and Ivan, the managers at the front desk. I definitely would stay there again!

Casa Anita, although a bit away from all the commotion, is a nice respite from the beach. No frills but clean and cheaper than other places. Staff is very helpful as well.

Older well maintained hotel located on a hill overlooking Puerto Vallarta. Beautiful views from the balcony. Close to taquerias, bakeries, shops but with a climb back up the hill which could be a bit of a challenge.

It was very charming and a large suite. We had an excellent Ocean view the pools were beautiful but needed a little bit of maintenance. Our room was extremely clean and we couldn't really be happier we would definitely stay again. The location was Superior as it is walking distance to the romantic zone and a quick drive to everything!

There are a lot of stairs and no elevator which was the biggest drawback. It’s a 10-15 min walk to the beach and wifi is practically non-existent.

Staff is great. Clean hotel. Really old and outdated. Pool is small and unappealing. Noisy. Very busy street. Cluttered room - mismatched and ugly furniture/linens. Water temperature all over the place. Little insects on countertops. Paid for five nights, left after two - even though we had no refund available. Would NOT recommend this hotel.

We were very surprised with how much we loved this place! At such a low rate, we were expecting a bit of a dump. When we checked in, they offered to upgrade us to a family suite. In this room there was a full kitchen, living room, two balconies, and a bedroom. We absolutely loved it!
