Beachfront 3-bedroom condo with pool

This place was absolutely amazing due to the location. The fun architecture of the complex really added personality. The pool was terrific. You do need a car to get around or pay the taxi prices, some were ridiculous. The unit itself is quite beat up, there are a lot of broken items, like mirrors, drawers and cabinets. There is a bunch of junk throughout the unit. There is 4 bedrooms. The listing shows 3. One bedroom has 3 beds in it. One has a king, another has 2 twins and the last one has a double. All have their own bathrooms plus another separate bathroom on the main level. The access to the pool and beach is a highlight because you are on the main level so you are just steps away, making it easier to grab a snack or go to the bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked but we found it quite dirty. There was an issue with ants and that continued the whole time. The dishtray was completely covered in rust and looked very unseemly., it was a poor first impression. The water was not explained very well and they had this disgusting looking water jug with some bizarre rocks for purification. We ended up buying water for consumption. I think the host should just put in the large 5 gallon jugs. There is a filtering system but it seemed quite suspect as to when or if it was maintained.. The washer is full of mold and needs to be remedied. The beds are really hard. There are plenty of towels and linens. There was always lots of hot water. Despite this I would return for the location

Staying in Bucerias/ Nuevo Vallarta for the first time was easy at this condo. Gated, staffed and well maintained. The staff was amazing, the condo very comfortable and the beach.....well, it's all yours in front of the condo units, (we had sea turtle hatch right on our beach for our visit which was spectacular). I'm a big review reader, so I will add one small detail; we did not find any restaurants for us within walking distance of the condo, like I had read in reviews, but only because they are located within neighboring resorts and have additional fees to eat there. With that said, we really didn't try every property around us, and just drove the 5 minutes into Bucerias for wonderful food and beverage. You are also super close to 3 large grocery stores for any supplies you might need. We brought our 4 adult "kids" and couldn't have had a more relaxing vacation! Wonderfully quiet, clean and relaxing condo with your own private beach!

The accommodations could not have been better. There is plenty of space for families to gather together. We enjoyed having two outdoor patios for dining or just to sit back and relax The condo is conveniently located on the Banderas Bay. Great family friendly place to stay,

The unit we stayed was very spacious, high quality, lots of sleeping room for our family of 7. The common area grounds were immaculate and very well cared for. Access to the pool and beach was very convenient and neither was crowded. We enjoyed the peace and privacy that the condo afforded us over what we would have had at a resort. The kitchen was very functionable with higher end appliances. The owners provided enough good quality beach towels for all of us to use. We felt very safe and secure for our first time not being at a resort. The owners even provided us with a brand new playpen for our youngest grandchild, which was very much appreciated. While this unit was clearly a quality build, it is in dire need of some basic maintenance as follows: the air conditioning system probably needs cleaning because there was a foul order coming from it almost every night, the dryer doesn't vent to the outside, causing a lot of humidity and condensation, the seal on the fridge wasn't working properly, causing water to build upon the below the vegetable bins and spill onto the floor, the bathroom door on the main floor was held on with 4 hinges but each only had one screw on either side, a lamp in the master bedroom had a broken switch, the door handle on the master bedroom fell off and we had to try to put it back on, there is collection of debris under the slats in the master bath, including what looks like a needle, the two light fixtures in the kitchen have broken/cracked shades, the screen was pulling out from the lower screen door, there was a cockroach in one of the kitchen drawers, the beds were very spacious but hard, and the cleaning lady showed up to clean about 3 hours early on our last day, while we were still packing up. We REALLY enjoyed our vacation and the location. The negatives weren’t huge, but for the most part just an inconvenience. With very little effort to provide a bit of basic maintenance (a few hours by a qualified service person), this location would go from “relatively nice” to “excellent”! The reason we were detailed about the issues we found is so that the owners would be aware of them (we suspect they may not be) and given the ease with which they could be corrected, perhaps have that done. All in all, a great holiday and we would come back again.
