About the host
Hosted by Mark Roberts
Bienvenidos! Welcome! We are Mark and John, two best friends that moved to Puerto Vallarta together in 2018 from the San Francisco Bay Area. We were both looking for a warmer place to live with great restaurants, a fun atmosphere and lots of culture. We decided to give Puerto Vallarta a try and both fell in love with it. The Villa was found by accident and the seed of a dream began. We decided that we both wanted to live and work full-time in Mexico and running our own business would be the best way to make our Mexico dream a reality. On our free time we love to explore the area taking in both Urban and nature hikes. Our favorite place in Puerto Vallarta is the Botanical Gardens with its incredible plants, hiking trails and restaurant. We will never turn down a nice bottle of wine and love to try new foods and restaurants. The sunsets can be jaw dropping and the nightly fireworks that usually happen right in front of us never get old. We look forward to hosting you at our beautiful home in Paradise!
Why they chose this property
The El Cerro/Centro area is full of history and local culture displaying beautiful original homes of Vallartan architecture, where holiday processions take place, and families that have lived here for generations. The neighborhood is shared with expats, snowbirds, and tourists. A vibrant area conveniently walkable to all the popular spots in the Centro/Romantic Zone area yet, set far enough away to offer a peaceful retreat from the noise and bustle.
I found the Villa by accident while walking a friend's dog and saw the for sale sign. The location was perfect, ocean facing with refreshing ocean breezes, and a street with a Mexican feel to it. After a year and a half of intense demolition and renovations, Villa Amistad (Villa of Friendship) was ready. The unique modular redesign allows it to be rented as an entire home or individual apartments. Each apartment named after a close friend of ours.
Miguel's Mirador(lookout), Jonathan's Lugar(Place), Ivan's Bella Vista(Beautiful View), and Curiel's Retreat. The office/housekeeping is Luis's Escondite(hideout), and the staff apartment is Zeferino's Palacio(Palace).
THE CREATION OF VILLA AMISTAD:
Purchased the Spring of 2019, as Villa Pedregoso, it was one of the original large homes in the area and was 4 stories. It was in disrepair and required extensive renovations if it was going to become our home and business. The project took 1.5 years to complete. Walls were opened to provide for better views, walls and ceilings were reinforced. Windows were added and open walls were closed so we could install AC. Soundproofing materials, new plumbing, electrical, a water pressurization and filtration system for clean pure drinking water were installed.
The fourth floor was removed but, 2 large balconies were added to the third floor. A heated, salt water pool was installed. The construction enabled income for about 50 families during the Pandemic. Eventually we hope to build another apartment and/or rooftop terrace on top.

What makes this property unique
We moved out of the Villa in 2023 to an apartment a block away so that 2 of our employees, who lived about 2 hours away, could live at the Villa and not have to commute. Our staff are full-time and our closest friends. Our philosophy is to provide a middleclass wage and better life to our employees and to offer them opportunities that will improve their lives and their families. Our staff have a vested interest in our guest's experience and with us and them close by, we are able to communicate and respond quickly to guest needs or situations. We love to hear guest feedback directly as this gives us an opportunity to gain insight into their experience and to consider new ideas that we wouldn't gain from being absentee owners. We work to be proactive and not reactive in making sure the guest's experience is met or exceeded. Our team meats regularly to discuss improvements, where repairs and maintenance should be performed, and what amenities or services would make stays even better. We make it a point to use local products, promote local small businesses, and give back to our community.
Villa Amistad is one of only a few villas that are located in town and allows guests to walk out the door and easily walk to restaurants, beaches, and other popular spots. Most villas are actually located outside the downtown area or far up extremely steep hillsides requiring rental cars, taxis, or Ubers on a daily basis. Go out and have fun and walk back to a peaceful retreat where you can take in views of incredible sunsets, summer electrical storms, or watch whales splashing about in the winter. Unique amenities we offer include complimentary housekeeping, a heated saltwater pool (rare to find here), great tasting purified drinking water from the tap! Our showers provide endless hot and cold water under pressure!. And probably one of the best features is our central location where all of the popular spots in the Centro or Romantic Zone are only 5 to 25 minutes walk maximum.
