My wife and 3 other family members rented the house plus casita for 10 glorious days over Christmas & New Year.

I don't think the pictures capture the feeling of the place - the kitchen, dining and living rooms open out onto a great terrace with fabulous views and the sounds of birds and waves (and a bit of the road, but it faded after a day or so).

The beach is a bit of a hike, so don't think you'll walk down easily with a load of stuff. Better to plan a beach day and drive. This property is on a steep hill, so you will get a workout. But, other than hauling up luggage (and thanks to houseman Memo for doing most of it), it's not too bad. But, this is not a property for non-ambulatory folks.

That said, we love it and would return in a minute. 50/70 pesos to old town, a bit more to the marina and hotel zones, 200 to the airport. Very nice place to return to after a long day of whatever. We used the great bbq several times, and the kitchen has pretty much anything you might need.

Beds are comfortable, showers hot and strong, and the overall decor an appointments are nice. WiFi is very strong, and if you bring an adapter, you can play your music through the stereo (RCA stereo to 1/8" female, plus a male 1/8" audio cable).

Norma is the maid, Memo the houseman; both are friendly and hardworking. Lionel, one of the owners, was very accommodating, offered some great tips and easy to work with.

This was not our first time staying at Casa de la Hoja and we hope not our last. Beautifully perched on the side of Conchas Chinas with panoramic views of the bay, the sunsets, the boats and whales. This beautiful and private home with the most gracious hosts, Garin and Lionel as guides to so many fine eateries, clubs, day trip destinations. We lounged on the private pool and deck, enjoyed margaritas at sunset over the bay.
All this and only a very short walk to the beach and all its fun, and to romantic restaurants and the excitement and charms of the old Zona Romantica.

Treat yourselves to a memorable experience

Our stay at Casa de la Hoja in PV was nothing short of pure perfection.
A beautifully decorated, elegant and immaculate home staffed by a gracious host and support staff that defines exactly what anyone would want in a perfect vacation experience.
The location is just right; close to the beaches, downtown and fine restaurants, but just far enough away to give us the perfect vacation paradise we were looking for.
The house and amenities made us feel very special and we truly appreciate the attention to detail and graciousness the host and staff provided us.
We look forward to a return stay in the future.

Excellent and beautiful view. Walking distance to down town and several beaches. Excellent staff to assist with everything.
