An amazing family friendly holiday location

Loved every minute of our stay here! John and Donna were very informative on the property itself, activities, taxi fare, local restaurants, etc. so before we landed we felt like we had a good grasp on what to expect, which was more than appreciated since we were travelling with our kids. The condo was clean, well kept, and very kid friendly. We can’t thank John and Donna enough for all of the extra effort they put into preparing the condo for our family’s stay, from having baby items set up and inflated (for the pool) to having children’s utensils, cups, dish ware, etc. and chilled wine and beer for mom and dad. Their hospitality was amazing from start to finish! Thank you so much J&D for an amazing stay; we hope to be back again in the future!

Great property for families

We had a great time in this 3-bedroom property. The location was perfect for us with a young child. The property was well adapted for children and had everything we needed. The grounds and pools of the Velas Vallarta are really nice, just a 10-min walk from the marina where restaurants are. The restaurants on the property are also very good. Finally, John and Dona were very helpful from the time of booking to the end of our stay, always available.

A little bit of Paradise🌞

The condo was perfect. Right away it felt like home away from home. It provided all conveniences, very clean. The view from the patio was lovely. The grounds were lush and beautiful. Only a 15 minute walk to the Marina. The owners provided information about getting around the area that helped considerably. We loved every minute of our stay and hope to go back again.

Perfect family vacation

I booked this property for my husband, 4yr old, 2yr old, and MIL. Upon arrival to the resort, we were immediately greeted with John who ensured we had a smooth check in. After checking in at the front desk, John personally showed us around the resort and then our booking. The place looked just as depicted in the listing. The kitchen was perfect for cooking meals and was equipped with everything we needed. The bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds. The resort was family friendly and offered great food. We did a combination of activities off the resort and spent a couple days enjoying the pools and food. We loved the place and everything Puerto Vallarta had to offer. We will definitely come back and rebook with John again.

Great unit in great resort.

We had a wonderful time! The unit was very comfortable. They balcony is extra large, there was a washing machine in the closet, a dehumidifier and well stocked kitchen. The comforts of home tucked inside a great resort. The host had an emergency and wasn't able to meet us at check in. There was a little delay, but the resort was able to help. Really not a problem, as we had access to the restaurants and pools while they held our bags. The owners and host were very apologetic and took care of us. I would definitely stay here again.

Expectations exceeded!

This property exceeded our expectations! We were a group of 4 traveling for a girls’ trip. The condo was the perfect size for us to have our space as well as offering plenty of room to lounge together and relax. The kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast each morning and the coffee bar was a fantastic treat! We made coffee and enjoyed sipping it and relaxing out on the spacious balcony. We utilized the resort’s gym and yoga classes on the beach. The pools and lounge chairs were never crowded. Our group spent the majority of our time down at the beach in the covered cabanas, which were lovely. Michelle, the property manager, gave us a ton of helpful tips when we first arrived and was only a text message away if we needed anything. I am looking forward to returning to Velas Vallarta and renting this VRBO again!

Enjoyed our stay

We enjoyed our stay at this condo at Velas. There were 5 of us total including 3 teenagers who enjoyed their space and having their own beds and room. The condo was very homey. We enjoyed having a full kitchen which included an air fryer. Unit also has a washer/dryer combo for small loads of laundry. Everything was included. The condo is located on the second floor which was convenient so we could take the stairs and not have to wait for the elevator. Check in was easy. We were able to check in early and Michelle met us at the lobby and walked us to the room. Showed us around the room and gave us some good tips for our stay in Puerto Vallarta. We loved being on the resort and being able to use the amenities. Beach was great. It is a little rocky getting Into the beach but once you passed the little patch, there was soft sand under your feet. We had excellent service by Eric on the beach. Pool was great. Our favorite was the daily beach volleyball into the sunset. We went offsite every day and ubered everywhere. The Marina was about a 20 minute walk. We will definitely return and highly recommend this condo. Donna and John also accommodated a late check out. Thank you so much! We had easy communication with Michelle and she was available to answer all our questions. Thanks for a great vacation.

Beautiful Resort

We had a nice time at the Vela Resort. The condo wasn’t avails when we first arrived due to it being aired out due to a leak or something. We were put in a really nice room while they took care of the odor. I would suggest to the owners they need to check their air filters every 6 months or so. We couldn’t seem to get the stale odor out of the condo. An updated air filter would take care of that. Beds were ok. I appreciated the little washer they had available to us. The ease of getting around town was a plus. Everyone is super friendly and accommodating. Food was great. Staff is friendly and helpful. The owners responded in a timely manner to our concerns and provided help with the small issues we encountered. Lots of reconstruction on the owners side of the resort. I’d double check with the resort if there will be construction happening during your stay. Other than that, it was a nice and pleasant time.

We had a glorious time staying at the condo with our 2 kids and my mom. The pool was everything for the kids and the staff at the resort were top notch. The condo was cozy and cool. We also delighted in the birds and lizards on the grounds.

beautiful area

The property itself was beautiful, not sure I would rate it a 4 star property though after traveling all over mexico and Caribbean and staying at alot of all inclusive and private condos. the condo itself is small, no dishwasher, no oven, so if you plan on cooking in much its very difficult even with a toaster oven and microwave. we spent alot of the with 6 family members doing dishes on our vacation because of no dishwasher, my mistake for not seeing this when booking. sheets and towels in condo were like sand paper very rough and scratchy. we actually brought the pool towels up from pool to use. its stated in the review of the condo that the marina is within walking distance , well it is if you are adjusted to the climate of severe humidity. but it is over a mile to the shops and restaurants...we couldn't do it, even my college age girls. we were told too that the cab ride back to airport would be very expensive but it was only 10 bucks we thought that was decent. the combined washer /dryer in the condo was so difficult we never could figure it out so didn't use it, so we had planned on doing wash while there but couldn't. frankly, there are other places to stay other than this place that is much nicer.....I have never ever given a negative review of anywhere I have stayed, but I had to be truthful this time. we were very disappointed in this condo. maybe its fine for first time travelers , but this was not our first rodeo, we expected alot more.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because we had 4 young children at the time and trying to find a hotel where we would all fit comfortably was becoming impossible. We wanted a place with a nice beach and within walking distant to restaurants and stores. We purchased about 10 months before Velas was opened. Our children are now grown with children of their own (we currently have10 grandchildren under the age of 14)and they visit us frequently.
Velas is located in the Marina area - we are close to restaurants, grocery stores, banks, spas etc.

What makes this property unique

Velas is situated on a long beach with a view of the Sierra mountains. Our sunsets are amazing. We are within a short walk to the Marina where there are many restaurant and shops. Also, Velas has a "Kids Club" that our grandkids love. Face painting , arts and crafts, movies, water balloons and video games are just a few of what they offer.
