Casa Galiano - Zona Romantica's Beachfront Penthouse

Beautiful unit and best location.

The photos don’t do this place justice. The bóveda ceiling in the living room is a masterpiece in itself. The staff takes incredible care of this property. The night watchman, David, shared numerous videos of his family, and we enjoyed bringing him a nightly soda. The owners go above and beyond to provide everything you could need in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. It’s evident from entering the condo that they truly love this place, and it shows in the beautiful furnishings and meticulous maintenance. We’re eagerly counting down the days until we can return to this incredible place.

The condo is done very well with a great location. They had some trouble with the elevator but the management of the building helped. The weather was hot and muggy as it was July but surprisingly we didn’t have much rain. The scenery, the food and the condo were all excellent.

We loved our stay at Casa Galiano. It's in a great location and the view is spectacular. Getting there and finding it may be a challenge - unless you follow their directions - but the reward is so worth it! Every time I emailed Lawrence with questions, before and during our visit, he responded right away with answers.There is a wrap-around balcony on the south and west sides. If we weren't in a restaurant enjoying the sunsets, we were on this balcony. And, it has a roof-top deck with more of that spectacular view and chaise lounges to enjoy the sun. You walk in and the kitchen, dining and living area are all open and the view of the ocean is just beyond, a fantastic sight when you first walk in. It has a kitchen with all the amenities (stove, microwave, full-sized fridge, coffee maker, blender, plates, silverware, glassware, etc.).It has 2 bedrooms, 2 baths which were a bit dated, but we didn't go for the bathrooms. I was told they are planning a reno very soon so the point may be moot. I would go back regardless of the reno.Other pluses: The entire building is gated so it's private, no street vendors. There is a cleaning service twice per week. We had a small issue and it was resolved within 24-hours. There is a private pool at beach level which we didn't use because we were sunning on the roof or swimming in the ocean - but it's there if you want it. The pool is adjacent to 2 bars if you want a cocktail as you lay by the pool. There is also a private beach area (with umbrellas).Reality check: It's a condo unit in a condo building in Mexico, it's not a hotel. Don't expect fluent English at the front desk or some service amenities of a hotel.We're definitely going back!
