Our time at Villa Gaeta was just magical. We had been to Puerto Vallarta before and stayed at an all-inclusive which was lovely but it couldn't even come close to the charm and care of our stay at Villa Gaeta. The villa itself is just enchanting with all of its traditional architectural flair and the location was very convenient to the Zona Romantica. (The hill you have to walk is a workout, to be sure, but we did it everyday.) The thing that really set Villa Gaeta apart was the service – top notch! Both the owners and Mary, the house manager, were superb in their communication and always quick to reply both before and during our stay. Doria made us delicious breakfasts – we're all craving her Chilaquiles now that we're home! And the rest of the team – Tony and Eduardo – were just great. Honestly, we felt like family. And does it get better than that? There is a large condominium building being constructed which, sadly, obstructs part of the view. But you still get some fantastic views, to be sure! And none of us ever felt bothered in the slightest by the construction. Oh, and around the corner from the house is Serrano's Grill. For convenience one night, we opted to try it for dinner. We were completely surprised by the beautiful atmosphere, wonderful food & service, and stunning views. We'd highly suggest the Rib Eye Burger and the Short Ribs! All in all, we cannot wait to come back to Villa Gaeta!” \------ Our lovely very private, secure and accommodating OPEN-AIR concept home is located on a Puerto Vallarta Alta Vista hillside overlooking the Bay of Banderas and the famous symbolic crown of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. We are conveniently located in close proximity to the local beach-- Los Muertos, and the old section of town--Basilio Badillo. A ten minute walk from our villa will place you in the heart of town to shop, dine in local restaurants, mingle in diverse neighborhoods, or enjoy night life along Puerto Vallarta's new Malecon stretch. Our staff is committed to having you as the focus of their attention throughout your stay at Villa Gaeta Mexico. Villa Gaeta Mexico, with its Spanish Colonial appeal, has a breathtaking ocean and city view from the vantage point of every room. Each of the three bedrooms has a king-size bed canopied with mosquito netting, access to balcony and a full private bath. Wake-up or retire for the night to fresh air, bright sun, blue sky or moonlight. Rooms throughout the villa are traditionally decorated and designed for the comfort, and pleasure of our guests. Our OPEN-AIR dining area, OPEN-AIR kitchen, OPEN-AIR living room, OPEN-AIR plunging pool and deck with lounge chairs are all unencumbered by walls or windows. Our villa is truly romantic, well situated for honeymoons, families, friends and private small business retreats. Yes, we keep our guest in mind with every management decision. We aim to please from the time house staff greet guests directly from the airport to the day of departure. Treat yourself to a real vacation and let us take care of you: we offer a full-time housekeeper to make-up beds and tidy up rooms, attend to your laundry needs and upon request Doria will cook an authentic gourmet Mexican dinner. Should anything go wrong with our property during your visit, our on-duty maintenance man is available to take care of the unexpected.

The location and spaciousness of the property are amazing, as were the staff, especially Mary who helped us when we became lost a few times in taxis or on foot. The big downside for us was that the pool heater had broken a few weeks prior to our arrival and the part was not available locally and was going to take weeks to fix. We are Canadian and used to swimming in cold lakes but the pool was really too cold for us to enjoy and was a disappointment. The only other negative is the plumbing and not being able to flush any toilet paper which was a little off-putting. Otherwise, great location with lots places to walk to and enjoy. ##### Lorraine R.

We were disappointed that there were only 4 lounge chairs instead of the 6 shown in the advertisement (since there were 6 of us). The heater in the pool was broken, which was also a disappointment, since it was a selling point for the condo. More towels in the bathrooms would be a plus. Fresh pastries were available on only the first day and just fruit and juice for continental breakfasts for the rest of the week. Otherwise a truly enjoyable stay in Old Town! The property manager (Mary) and staff (Doria, Tony, and Diego) were very accessible, friendly, and responsive. ##### Blaire C. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah C.

Mary was very attentive even before check-in. She answered all of my questions leading up to our stay and allowed us to check in early as the home was ready. She and Lalo were awaiting our arrival with lots of information and greeted us with guacamole and margaritas. The view is great, the location cant be beat and yes a huge hill to walk up, my 65 year old in laws did it once. The first night we had chef Doria prepare our meal. She made so much i canceled the chef prepared breakfast i had previously asked for. What I didnt like is continental breakfast was served only once during our stay. Sunday they do not work. Ok, but Monday, Doria wouldnt show up until 9am. None of us sleep past 7 so we were pretty hungry by 9. Day of check-out, we left at 8, so we didnt get continental that day either. Not sure who eats breakfast at 9 but that was way too late for us.Only other issue is 3rd floor bedroom shutters do not close so you hear all noises and it doesnt get dark enough in the bedroom. Joy, the owner should consider black out curtains or new shutters. Other than those things, we had a great family time. Mary made special accommodations for my toddler so he could sleep in our room. Big thanks to Mary!! Lalo was there at check out to help with bags. Id stay there again with friends and make them sleep on the third floor hahah ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a6ef84aa-7b97-4ed8-aeae-1b5b3d276d41-1752665954238.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rhonda F. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon C. Jun 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### I highly recommend this place Mary and the rest of the staff were incredible. They made this staff extra special with the amount of detail, hard work, and care they put into the property and accommodating the guests. The property was beautiful. My 5 friends and I loved staying here. It had a beautiful view and we loved swimming in the pool whiling taking in that view. The location is pretty close to the bars and restaurants. We ubered mostly because we didn’t want to walk up the hill to get to the place but if you’re more physically fit, go for it! It was a little difficult to find initially but Mary was very communicative in helping us find the place when we go there. I would highly recommend anyone to stay at this place! ##### Simon C. Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason S., Chicago Mar 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Traveling Group from Chicago! Our stay at Villa Gaeta was amazing! From the onset, we received a warm welcome from answering questions pre-arrival to our actual stay. The property and amenities are top notch. Upon arrival, Mary and Tony greeted us and walked us through the home and explained in great detail how to navigate the home and guidance on the surrounding area. The view from the main area is stunning, even with the condo building which obstructed the view (NOT the owners fault). The staff was friendly and extremely attentive. Having fresh breakfast in the morning is a very refreshing touch and is something we definitely enjoyed. (Thank you Doria, Tony, and Lalo!) Honestly, could not ask for better assistance with maintaining the upkeep. I would highly recommend staying here if you are traveling with family or large group of friends. This place is truly a gem. ##### Jason S.
