The heart of the house is the spacious pool lawn and BBQ area. It can be a quiet spot for a meal or a gathering place to play. From lazy morning coffees to mid day hammock siestas to evening outdoor movie nights, its always the best place to escape.
A common entry, laundry area and off-street parking are shared by a 1 bedroom Villa, a Studio and your Poolhouse. Each unit has its own digital coded door locks and SimpliSafe alarm system.
Other Things to Note:
Our town of Bucerias is small enough to walk to everything but still offers a great variety of restaurants and shops. The house is located 2 blocks up from a sandy swimming beach in the neighborhood called "Zona Dorada" (Golden Zone named for the pyrite sparkling sand) This deep bay is a safe haven for sea life including dolphin pods and migrating humpback whales you may see in the winter months. The "sweet-water" is less salty than nearby Pacific beaches because the Bay of Banderas is fed by mountain spring rivers.
Bucerias is centrally located making for easy day trips to explore the south's historical pueblitos and fun activities of Puerto Vallarta and the north's popular surf beaches and cool scenes of Sayulita & San Pancho.
As your hosts, we have experienced almost everything the bay area has to offer and love sharing this with our guests - from Jeep jungle hikes, to bike food tours and whale watching boats - we've got the connections.
But if it's just some sun, beach and chill time your looking for, we've got that too! Plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and poolside lounge spots. And if duty calls, our high speed internet, quiet works spaces and printer are available.
After having lived all around the area for the past 10 winters, we kept finding ourselves back in Bucerias and we are grateful to have made Casa Dorada our home and are proud to now be able to share this with you.

This is our second stay in the Luxury Studio at Zona Dorado. The best hosts we have had at any VRBO. We felt welcomed from the moment we booked and especially on arriving for our 8 night stay. The Queen, Murphy bed is very comfortable for sleeping. It folds up and into a sofa giving lots of space during the day. The Kitchen is well equipped with everything you would need. We loved having coffee on the Patio outside our room and waited each morning for Cora, the owners dog to come greet us. The grounds and pool area are so beautifully maintained. The pool is awesome and the covered, outdoor kitchen area is perfect complete, with dining areas, a hammock for an afternoon nap and lots of spots to sit and read or get some sun. We have been to Bucerias many times so the location is close to all of our favorite restaurants and just a couple blocks to the beach. Sheryl and Billy are the best hosts and go out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Even during the 2026 Sheltering in Place Advisory after the Sunday morning protests, we felt safe and secure and thoroughly enjoyed every day we were there. Can’t wait for our return to this wonderful home in Bucerias.

We had a fabulous 2 week stay at Casa Dorado. The owners Sheryl and Billy are the most welcoming hosts. All the amenities are first class from the kitchen ware to the toiletries. The pool area is a great place to hang out and swim in the heated pool. The garden also has a fully equipped kitchen with a pool house and outdoor shower. Everything you need is within walking distance, a mere few minutes to the beach and loads of restaurants. Sheryl can give you loads of ideas for food, tours or things to see or do. We would 100% recommendation staying here. We can’t wait to return next year..Thank you Sheryl, Billy and of course Cora for a wonderful stay!

The hosts were great, they even had some basic groceries ready for us when we arrived. The house was very nice and clean. Everything worked. A lot of care goes into your stay at this house, and it shows. The house is close to everything.
