Wonderful stay with an excellent view. The space was clean and comfortable, with a balcony that overlooks the ocean and city – perfect for morning coffee and sunset watching. Would gladly stay here again. Everyone is wonderful. Very nice, response right away when I need something or if I have any questions. Easy access in the building in and out. Omg, the infinity pool it’s incredible. The best view of PV. Very quiet, you get a lot of privacy. I was speechless. 10/10

Our stay here was exceptional. The view was stunning, perfect for watching sunsets! The walk to the beach was about 2 min. The location is close enough to walk to where you need to go or grab a taxi. The communication with the host and the property manager was great, we always received a quick response. Everything was so clean and very quiet. The kitchen had everything we needed to make some meals and not have to eat out every meal. The pool was clean, also with a great view and we utilized the onsite gym a few times which was also clean. We would definitely stay here again when we come back to Puerto Vallarta.

Good job but this was a bad week with the cartel activity shutting down the town. We were left without food for a day and with no transportation, would have hoped management might have helped us out a little instead of just finding a store to walk to that’s 1.5 miles away.

During this unfortunate situation where cartels attacked Vallarta, the entire city was asked to shelter in place, so "management" was not allowed nor authorized to provide food as suggested by this guest.

About the host

Hosted by Blair Stephenson

Host profile image
Beginning in 2003, it had been a dream to buy property in Vallarta and spend relaxing vacations there. This little paradise evokes the wonderful feelings I had visiting tropical places as a child, like Guaymas, Mexico, and later the same feelings I had while living in the tropics of the Philippines and Hawaii.

There is something magical about Vallarta that draws you into the town, its culture, the people. But it is thoughts of warm sun, ocean breezes, lively beaches, great food and margaritas, and the hospitality of this charming city that has me and so many others returning year after year.

Why they chose this property

I first visited Amapas 353 during its construction phase in November, 2012. The model unit was open and friends and I walked through that unit - admired the attention to detail in the construction of the building and unit, then saw the incredible view and fell in love. My friends actually bought a unit in the building that trip, but I hesitated. In June 2016, I finally have my own place in paradise and happy to own that same model unit that I walked into years ago.

Guests enjoy the property in part because Amapas 353 is within walking distance of an incredible variety of restaurants, bars, and shopping. Los Muertos Beach is known for beach clubs, some with pools, DJs, and others with music groups playing songs for young (and old) travelers. The atmosphere is lively and you are guaranteed to have a memorable experience! The Romantic Zone in Puerto Vallarta or Old Town Vallarta is a famous “people watching” location day or night. And in addition to bars and restaurants, you can also look forward to the galleries that have become a trendy stop while visiting Puerto Vallarta.

What makes this property unique

*Boutique upscale building in a great area of Amapas.
*Guests will be met by property manager at any hour.
*Rooftop infinity pool is amazing.
*Rooftop BBQ and party area.
*Gym has state of the art equipment and great for such a small building.
*Step out onto the cobblestone street and walk down 90 steps to the beach, or down the street and down a little hill (Vallarta has many - so bring walking shoes!) and find yourself in heart of the Romantica zone within 5-7 minutes.
*Taxis are everywhere, and buses are plentiful and cheap. Uber is also available.
*Restaurants, bars, shops all very close.

*Romantica zone is not always quiet - it is the hip and trendy area of Vallarta. In Amapas 353 you will hear the crashing sounds of waves from the beach, and you may hear noises from music on the beach or two night clubs in the area (no music usually after 11pm), from construction, or from the highway that runs along the east side of the building.

*The views and closeness to the beach make this building one of the best in Amapas! You won't be disappointed.
