Your Guide to Puerto Vallarta Luxury Villas

Set on the Bahia de Banderas in the heart of the Mexican Riviera, Puerto Vallarta has long been a top vacation destination thanks to its lush landscapes, vibrant culture, and breathtaking beaches. And while it was one of the first destinations in Mexico to benefit from hotel development, today Puerto Vallarta luxury villas stand out as the best way to experience this beautiful resort city.

Originally a trading port, Puerto Vallarta rose to prominence in the 1960s when its stunning scenery attracted resort developers from across the US and Mexico, and it quickly became a favourite vacation spot for Hollywood celebrities. Puerto Vallarta villa rentals became popular a bit later in the 1990s, as guests demanded an even higher standard of luxury and privacy.

Today, Puerto Vallarta luxury villas stand out as the best way to enjoy this beautiful beach destination and everything it has to offer. They often feature top-of-the-line amenities, a dedicated staff, and some of the most coveted locations along the coast. Puerto Vallarta villas also make a great hub for exploring other spots on the Nayarit Riviera, like nearby Nuevo Vallarta and Punta Mita.

Renting a luxury villa in Puerto Vallarta is easy with Rental Escapes. First, choose your approximate travel dates. Next, choose your approximate party size. From there, your Rental Escapes villa specialist will be happy to present you with the best available villa options for your group.

Luxury Villas in Puerto Vallarta

Private, staffed, and often ocean-front, luxury villas in Puerto Vallarta deliver everything you need for the ultimate Mexican beach holiday.

Set within gated resort communities like Conchas Chinas, Mismaloya, and Sierra del Mar, Puerto Vallarta villas benefit from resort-like amenities and service, with all of the space and privacy of a private villa.

Our villas are also independently owned and operated, giving them each a unique sense of style made evident in their distinct architecture and interior design.

Below are some of our guests' favourite places to stay in Puerto Vallarta.

Conchas Chinas Villa Rentals

Located near Old Town and the Romantic Zone, Conchas Chinas is one of Puerto Vallarta’s premiere villa communities. It’s home to world-class restaurants, beautiful beaches, and plenty of gorgeous, oceanfront villas, including:

Casa Septiembre: A long-time favourite, Casa Septiembre sits directly on a beautiful stretch of the Bay of Banderas, with a cabana, infinity pool, and outdoor living area letting you make the most of its prized location. And with its Art Deco design and eclectic furnishings, the villa offers a soulful, bohemian atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else.

Villa Bahia: Set on the southern edge of Puerto Vallarta, Villa Bahia combines contemporary design with traditional architecture to create a uniquely elegant package that highlights the nature surrounding it, including the expansive views of the Bay of Banderas – best enjoyed while lounging in the villa’s heated saltwater infinity pool.

Villa Verano: With 11 bedrooms for up to 22 guests, Villa Verano is like having your own private beachfront resort. Relax in the infinity pool, peer out over the ocean, or enjoy fresh margaritas prepared by the staff – however you want to relax, Villa Verano has you covered. Combine with its neighbouring villa and you can host up to 44 guests – ideal for a destination wedding.

Mismaloya Villa Rentals

Located near Los Arcos Marine Preserve and El Eden Eco Park, Mismaloya Beach is known for its natural beauty and laid-back vibe. It was also the setting for “The Night of the Iguana,” the Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton film that brought Puerto Vallarta to international attention. Some top choices here include:

Casa Nautica: Directly facing Los Arcos, Casa Nautica is a true testament to aqueous splendour and relaxed tropical living. The indoor and outdoor areas seamlessly blend together and flow into the free-form infinity pool, which itself seems to flow into the sea. And with its own signature chef, you can be sure you’ll be enjoying great food, whether you’re dining indoors or al fresco.

Casa Pepillos: With over 13,000 square feet and five bedrooms, Casa Pepillos is an open, expansive villa that offers guests the chance to unwind and take in their beautiful surroundings.

Puerto Vallarta FAQ

What are the Entry Requirements for Puerto Vallarta?

A visa is not required for most travellers to Mexico. Instead, visitors to Mexico, including from the US, Canada, and the EU, must present a valid passport upon entry for stays less than 180 days.

How to Travel to Puerto Vallarta?

Most travellers arrive in Puerto Vallarta by air, landing at the Licenciado Gustavo Diaz Ordaz International Airport (PVR), which services both international and domestic flights.

Puerto Vallarta is also reachable by car, including if you are travelling from Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Mazatlan.

When is the Best Time to Visit Puerto Vallarta?

Puerto Vallarta is characterized by both a dry season and a wet season, with a shoulder season in between.

Peak season corresponds to the dry season and runs from November-April. This is the preferred travel time for most thanks to the milder, drier temperatures. Everything is open at this time, but it’s also when you’ll find the highest number of tourists.

For many, shoulder season in May and October represents the best time to travel. The weather at this time is still good, and the crowds are definitely smaller. Rates are also lower, so you can get a great deal on a Puerto Vallarta luxury villa.

Low season runs from June-September, and is when you’ll see the highest chance of precipitation. That said, the rain is usually relegated to short showers in the afternoon. Low season is also hurricane season, though your chances of encountering an actual hurricane are quite low. This is when you’ll find the best deals on Puerto Vallarta villas, as well as the lowest number of tourists.

Best Things to Do in Puerto Vallarta?

Explore the Old Town: Walk down the Malecon, Puerto Vallarta’s iconic boardwalk, to reach the Zona Romantica, also known as the Old Town. Here you’ll find cobblestone streets, charming art galleries, some of Puerto Vallarta’s best restaurants, and the beautiful Los Muertos Beach.

Charter a boat tour: Puerto Vallarta is home to a gorgeous coastline, great snorkelling, and enchanting hidden beaches. The best way to experience all of them is with a boat charter – especially around sunset.

Experience the Sierra Madre Mountains: With its lush canopy and dramatic landscapes, the nearby Sierra Madre Mountains are perfect for excursions, including ziplining, ATVing, horseback riding, and hiking to secluded waterfalls. Just choose your adventure level and get going!

Puerto Vallarta is one of the top culinary destinations in Mexico. Specialties here include traditional Mexican cuisine, including ceviche, mole, tacos, enchiladas, and grilled fish.

Speaking of which, there’s a big emphasis on fresh seafood, especially local catches like mahi mahi, snapper, octopus, shrimp, and lobster.
