Great place for big family.

Food was amazing. Tina is an amazing chef as well as morning chef. Staff was also amazing. It’s like they were hiding. You would have breakfast and return to the room and they were done. We would return.

Annual Friends Trip

We have had many awesome experiences at various destinations, and this one did not disappoint. Richard and Tina, along with Toni and all the staff, were fantastic. It's always fun with we have other people in common, which was the case this time as well. The property is immaculate, Tina is an amazing chef, and Toni was always available if we needed assistance. Wonderful location with only one exception, which is more road noise at times than we liked. Take advantage of Richard's suggestions for local restaurants and activities - none were disappointing! This house and team are highly recommended. Thank you for a GREAT week!

It's hard to describe such a fabulous experience! The house is amazing. The view of the city is the "Best" in Vallarta; and chef Tina prepares meals that are better than some of the top restaurants. No matter what you needed, Tina could provide it. Richard and Tina were wonderful hosts!!

Amazing villa with great staff and food

Staying at Villa Santa Fe was the highlight of our vacation in Puerto Vallarta. The food was excellent. The staff and service were friendly, courteous and easy going. Our questions/issues were handled professionally and the team was eager to make our stay as enjoyable and fun as possible. As always, communicate proactively with the staff to avoid surprises.

Great Get away!

The property is the great, excellent staff, and the pool was amazing! The one downside is the property is up a very large steep hill, so be prepared if you have anyone elderly or out of shape, even some of the Ubers wouldn't take us up the hill to get to the house, and there were no stairs so driveway it is. The property Manager was great, and set up all our events that were outside the city with transportation, Staff and Cook were great and were able to accommodate our group request. Great week get away!

What an amazing stay. We were a large group of 10 and I can’t Raven enough about what a wonderful stay we had. The booking process was seamless, check-in was great and easy, and even cocktails upon our arrival. All of the attention to detail does not go unnoticed by us. Chef Tina and her staff were sweet and friendly with great food. Last-minute requests by our crazy group or for filled with ease. Thanks for an amazing vacation and we look forward to coming back and staying with you.

Amazing property - this place has it all!

Views, pool, comfortable luxury, the food - absolutely incredible! This was our second visit to Villa Santa Fe - we got married here 3 years ago - this time we were celebrating a 50th Birthday! From the warm welcome at our arrival to the fond farewells at our departure, it was a week to remember. Chef Tina did it again and went above and beyond to ensure that everyone had the best possible experience - her meals are amazing down to every little detail, including the coconut rice served in actual coconuts. Several weeks later and everyone is still talking about the food. We will definitely be back!

Another wonderful stay!

This is our third stay at Richard’s property and every year is as great as the last - if not better! We are always welcomed with fresh guacamole and margaritas and feel immediately relaxed and welcome. The meals were absolutely amazing. My personal favorite was the coconut shrimp. The villa itself is breathtaking and all of the rooms are spacious and very well appointed. The staff made it extra special one night by hosting a 20 person(!) meal on the pool deck for Valentines Day. We had friends staying at the neighboring villa who joined us that night. Everything was perfect...agains...and we are thinking of visiting again next year! Book this villa for a truly wonderful, luxurious, tasty and decadent stay in PV!

The property is very nice. The staff was disappointing. The concierge and head chef appeared too busy or uninterested. The only people who were helpful were the two sisters who did all the cooking and presenting. The house was very nice, the staff did not appear to be happy being there. It definitely affected my attitude.

Amazing!

What an incredible experience from the moment of the booking until we arrived home Richard (owner) and Toni (concierge) made everything so easy. The home is beyond beautiful and the view is incredible. Chef Tina cooks everything to perfection and her assistant Alex is also an incredible Chef. There is nothing that Tina can’t make and just when you think she has out done herself she does it again. Toni took care of booking any activities we wanted to do down to making sure we had transportation to and from each one. We enjoyed the activities but honestly never wanted to leave the house because everything we needed was right there. 5 star service the entire trip. Can’t wait to go back!

Great way to experience Puerto Vallarta

We had a great time. The property was everything we had hoped for. The beds were comfortable. The rooms were great with plenty of space. The customer service makes this place unique. Toni and the staff are so responsive. They respond immediately. It was so convenient and helpful having Toni arrange transportation for us. She even helped us order pizza one afternoon. The chef prepared the best dishes. It was so nice waking up to breakfast on the patio. They even made breakfast the day we departed. The staff are so nice and helpful. We really had the best time. It was clean, safe, beautiful, and convenient. This is a great property to experience.

Simply the Best

When you walk through the grand doors. When you meander around the lovely fountains. When you marvel at the gorgeous views. And when you walk out to the pool and see PV and the Pacific unfold in every direction below, you know you're in a very special place. Indeed this villa is a very special place. I've never been anywhere like it. The owner Richard has made a castle on the cliffs and we enjoyed every delicious day with our group of guys. And the staff on hand included our Chef Tina who took care of us as if we were her own family. And with food her and her staff made that cannot be equalled at the finest restaurants in PV. Every meal was special. My memories of our days here will last forever.
