Laid Back Privacy In A 3 Unit Triplex

Impressive!

We had a wonderful time here. Ingrid was there most of the time and was so helpful and friendly and accommodating. Anything we needed to know she had the answer. The unit was more than adequate. The yard and patios and pool and sitting area by the pool were lovely. Getting around was so handy. It’s near everything. You can rent a bike or take a mini bus or big bus or taxi or walk to where you need to go. Getting to the beach is a short and lovely walk. The beach and Ocean were beautiful. There are lots of food venders along the main road and tons of restaurants to choose from. And many Oxxo stores for a quick pick up of something. We would go back every year as long as life cooperates. Thanks Russell and Ingrid. You have a great set up there. William and Louise

We enjoyed a month here, our first time in Nuevo Vallarta at this well appointed and well located property. The owner and her dog were present and very sociable and helpful. We would consider returning here again.

We loved the private setting of this property. We were in the front unit, "Cozy" and we found for the most part it was very quiet. We could sit on the front deck and enjoy the peacefulness of the front yard and seldom see or hear another person. For the most part, we did not hear the other tenants in the unit beside us or above us. We did have some problems at the end of our stay when a group of young people came and were quite loud late at night when they came home from partying. Ingrid did address the problem with them. The pool and backyard are lovely and quite private. The only problem is that the backyard is on a busy main street of Nuevo Vallarta so there is a fair amount of traffic noise. We preferred to spend our time in the front where you could not hear the traffic. The layout of "Cozy" is perfect for a couple. The king-size bed is very comfortable and it is easy to regulate the temperature in the unit by using fans or the air conditioner. We found that for the most part we did not need the air conditioner except for our last few nights when we required some white noise while we slept. The unit contains the basic things for preparing simple meals, but they are not in the greatest condition and at times we had to be creative to find ways to a solution. For example, using a plate for a lid on some of the pots, making tea in a pot because the kettle was corroded. There were a few things that while they were liveable, they are reasons we do not consider this place to be a 4 or 5 star accommodation. For example, when the sheets were changed after our first week, the top sheet was extremely pilly. The unit is in need of some TLC. While basic cleaning has been done, it needs a deep clean. There are cosmetic repairs that need to be done as well as some basic maintenance, like fixing the loose toilet seat. We provided Russell and Ingrid with a list of some of the things we thought needed to be done as well as some suggestions to make guests' stays a little better - like providing more tea towels and hand towels for people staying a week. There is no laundry facility for guests to use at the house at this point, but Russell does have plans to put something in place. We think it is also important that people are aware that the beach is very close by, but there are no beach chairs, blankets, umbrellas or coolers available in the unit for you to use at the beach. You do receive two beach towels to use around the pool.
