Perfect spot for our family
We had a great stay at Villa Mercedes. Hidden up in the hills above Mismaloya, we had great access to beaches and Zona Romantica with the feeling of being up in the jungle. Great view. Ample room for our extended family of k11.Gaby and Luz were great

Amazing Stay!
We had a group of 9 people that stayed at Villa Mercedes for a week. We loved the fact that it was in Mismaloya, which is so much quieter than Puerto Vallarta. The house has an amazing view of the ocean from its location on the hill. Positives: -Gaby and Luz! I can't stress this enough. Gaby and Luz were the best part of this property. Gaby helped us book excursions, get taxis, and gave us recommendations. We definitely saved money by going directly through him. The breakfasts that the two of them cooked each morning were fantastic. The fruit in Mexico is just so much better. -The space was awesome. We had a group of 9 people, and the layout was perfect for us. -Location. It was nice being away from the crazy crowds of Puerto Vallarta. The beach at Mismaloya was much calmer and cheaper. Negative: The only thing about this place is it's open, so you're going to get some bugs hanging out with you, but they certainly weren't a big deal. The AC in the bedrooms worked great, but had trouble in the main gathering areas, but not to the point where it was that bad. Overall, we would absolutely stay at Villa Mercedes again. The communication with the host was perfect. We can't wait to return!

Best experience ever!
The villa is beautiful. Rustic and authentic. It had plenty of space for our family of 12. Everything was very clean. The best part of this villa is Gaby and Luz. They made staying here even more wonderful. They make the best breakfasts. Anything we needed for the villa we only needed to ask Gaby and it was done! He is very honest and will only recommend excursions and experiences with trusted people. I would love to come back here again!

The best of both worlds!
Villa Mercedes offers the best of Mexico to experience panoramic ocean views from a jungle setting high above Mismaloya in a multi-level Mexican mansion. Walk to fantastic local restaurants, and beach. Beautifully furnished, with old world style artifacts and charming personal flair that truly makes you feel you are a guest in Mercedes home! Gabi and Luz went on and above for us, even preparing chicken for our poodle at every meal. They are absolutely lovely and made our trip the best. We were just 2 people but plan on returning with a large group based on the hospitality we received and quality of the villa. This is not a resort tourist spot, so plan on walking and opening yourself up to an authentic cultural experience you will treasure forever. 6 stars! Muchas gracias, Gabi, Luz, and Mercedes!

Very disappointed
The property was not advertised properly. There were 7 of us over the age of 60. In order to go to bed you had to walk up or down concrete steps. Three of the guest had knee replacements and one had ankle issues. One person was even walking on a cane. There were LARGE FROGS in the kitchen area and gecko's throughout the house. We all had to find hotels except my brother who stayed at the house because he could not afford a hotel. On his last night there there was a power outage and it was pitch black all night!! They also did not tell us it was across the street from the ZOO. The owner refused to give us ANY MONEY BACK for our inconvenience and she was VERY RUDE!!! We are going to use our Social Media to boycott this property!!!

This is a beautiful home with amazing staff. Gaby and Luz elevated our trip from great to amazing! From the breakfasts they cook each morning to the dinners we requested! The food was better then we had at local restaurants and their service is top notch! We celebrated my son's birthday while we were there and Gaby even got him a birthday cake and made special drinks for the dinner! The views are breathtaking and we had plenty of room for the 11 adults we had with us!

Wonderful vacation
Our family of 5 (3 teenagers) stayed at Villa Mercedes for Spring Break. This house was perfect for us- lots of space for everyone to spread out. The best part of Villa Mercedes is Gabi and Luc. They took excellent care of us! From preparing delicious breakfast and dinner for us to helping us arrange last minute tours for the kids- they were so helpful. We rented a small SUV to allow us to go into Puerto Vallarta and drive to Boca de Tomatlan for a few excursions. Having 3 active teens in our group- we did a lot during our stay- renting ATVs, zip lining adventure, night time taco tour, sunset kayaking to Los Arcos, and hiking to Las Animas beach. The house was a perfect setting to start and end our day. It was so nice to sit by the pool and relax after a busy day.

Peacefully pampered
As a family of 11 we really felt pampered as we enjoyed the cool breezes of the jungle while we relaxed, visited, read books and enjoyed the deliscious food prepares by Gaby and Luz. On our first evening, after a stop at Costco en route from the airport, we felt spoiled as Gaby and Luz welcomed us with margaritas while supper was brewing. We opted for 6 dinners and often enjoyed the full breakfasts so kindly and expertly prepared for us. On our first full day, 9 of our group were wanting massages. Gaby arranged for massage therapists to come to the villa and they set up the beds for us, with 3 people at a time enjoying an hour of bliss while the therapists worked. The open air environment allowed for the cool breezes of the jungle to keep us cool. There are some bugs and we prepared for it so it wasn't problematic but it's something to be aware of. Gaby and Luz are truly gems and we really valued input and suggestions offered for adventures and options nearby. The hill is steep and so there was some fitness built in when walking down to town and back up... who needs a gym? The pool, though it has a cover, is quite *brisk* - the house shades much of the sun. We used the pool fairly often and it was quite refreshing. If you're looking for bathtub warm, it's not that. We enjoyed how spacious the villa is and we made use of the hammock on the top floor. The villa is so lovely! The rooms are airy and comfortable. The beds are soft and the bedding is, too! I could go on for days about the food! We opted for 6 supper during our 10 day stay. We picked up extra groceries for fulle breakfasts as well as yogurt, bread and extra fruit for those of the group who preferred something lighter in the mornings. Suppers were generous and it worked beautifully to have leftovers handy for lunches on the days where we were choosing to fend for ourselves. We were able to hop on the bus and head into PV or to Boxa de Tomatlan on the days we wanted to adventure a little. The villa is situated up the hill from Mismaloya and we felt safe and pampered while we were there. It's truly a beautiful, peaceful place for a holiday. Close to but not in the thick of things. Its location was perfect for our group and we were truly thankful for the ambiance and the service. Our communications with Mercedes went very well. She was very responsive and patient with our many questions prior to our stay. Highly recommend!

Amazing Views and more amazing staff.
The house is absolutely amazing!!! More than enough room for the entire family. The view from the top floor balcony is amazing. The private pool is great too, especially after a long day of exploring the local area. House is up a large hill up a road that is honestly quite an adventure when driving up. Mornings are something special at Villa Mercedes. The jungle surrounding the villa comes alive shortly before sunrise with many birds. As amazing as the house is, the thing that sets this villa apart is the amazing staff. From the minute we arrived at the airport to the time we left the villa, Gabby and Luz took the best care of us. They answered any questions we had and had all the local connections for our daily excursions. You want to go on a boat trip for the day? Just ask. You want a ride into town? Just ask. You want to go ziplining? Just ask. You get the picture, whatever you want to do, simply ask Gaby and he will help set it all up for you. Each morning they arrived to cook an amazing breakfast for us. Take advantage of the extra dinner service as well. We did this three times during our week-long trip and did not regret it at all. The most amazing food everyone in our group loved. Simply, we were treated like family while we were there and that was very special for us. We will most definitely be returning to Villa Mercedes. Thank you Gaby and Luz for the wonderful week.

We loved the property after we acclomated to Mexican living. The property was beautiful, but there was no AC in the common areas, only in the bedrooms. There was a nice breeze so it was comfortable. Once the group got used to that, we had a fabulous time. I can't say enough good things about the staff. Gaby was so gracious and happily took care of everything we needed. Merecedes and Gaby took care of all of my wedding planning and everything was beautiful. The house was gorgeous and the views were spectacular. We felt very safe there, high up the mountain in the middle of the jungle.

Wonderful time
This is a great property for a large family or different groups of people due to the separation of space. The listing doesn't really describe this but there is 2 bedrooms right by the pool with a Jack and Jill bathroom which is great. Although it is a little bit of a drive to and from the actual city, we found easy ways to get around with our group of 10 thanks to Gaby. We took plenty of excursions around the area and were busy all the time. Gaby and Luz are great so if you do go please make sure you ask them about things to do!

Villa in the jungle with beautiful views
It's hard to capture in pictures how wonderful the view is, especially from the third floor. The drive up to the house was an adventure in itself up a crazy steep road in a very secluded and private area. We didn't arrive until after dark, and the villa was all lit up with music playing and margaritas and appetizers waiting for us. Super cool atmosphere. Gabby and Luz are wonderful. I loved the wild birds and macaws in the morning. It is a bit of a walk down to the beach and almost straight up coming back, but the setting is gorgeous. We are already missing this wonderful villa and wish we could stay longer.
