This special place is in an ideal location. Walking distance to everything in the central and romantic zones and far enough from the busy area for a quiet retreat. The rooms have views of the jungle and along the walk along the river just across the street you can find parrots, iguanas and occasionally a crocodile. Staff are friendly and responsive and rooms are spacious and quiet. We had a wonderful time here and with all we did in beautiful Puerto Vallarta.

We had an extremely unique room that made us feel like we were living in old school England. Multiple pool areas in the hotel that are each unique as well. Very friendly staff. Coffee maker was terrible. That’s the only less than perfect thing!! Property cares for two cats named Elizabeth and Francesca. Both are lovely and lay around in the lobby. Very heart warming to see. Quiet street. You can hear music from the island at night also!!

The staff is excellent. The rooms are lovely (we’ve stayed here twice). The location is fabulous - quiet and charming. Lovely rooftop pool / bar where the delightful Jesus tends bar. Highly recommended if you’re looking for something other than a boring resort.
