About this property

Elegant Oceanside Home, Panoramic Sea and City Views and Incredible Amenities

Perched directly on the Pacific, waves lapping the sands below your balcony in the sky, just minutes from downtown, the history, the nightlife, the food, and the culture. All that is Mexico and Puerto Vallarta is right here.

Your home features all resort amenities including beachfront, beautiful pools, tennis courts, on site gym, 24 hour check in and security and some of Vallartas finest shopping and restaurants just steps away. An all inclusive food and beverage option at a discounted rate is available to all our guests who may chose for just a day or the entire stay. Too much of Vallarta's year round sun, no worries, on site medical services available. Mom and Dad need a romantic evening together, but what about junior? We've got it! We have optional childcare available as well. Ever wanted to sail the Pacific? Here you can. We'll be happy to arrange one of the finest ships in Vallarta for you or you and the crew, just let us know and we'll do all the planning.

1242 is equipped with expansive talavera shower and bath two full beds giving room for up to 4 guests, a pullout sofa and a hide a bed add room for 1-2 more. Personal beach chairs, umbrella, to go tumblers will make that panga trip to Yelapa even more refreshing. All the beach chairs are filled? So what? You'll have your own! Two flat screens and cable service just in case the big game and your holiday are on the same day. Extensive cable with multiple English news and movie channels, in case you decide to check in on the world thats not in paradise. Built in safe. Wine rack, blender, counter top oven, blue tooth speaker, and all appliances and necessities to have a romantic night at home, or have over a few friends. The master bedroom has pocket doors, which make it a private oasis from the rest of the home, if you care to be alone. The view from your balcony is among the best in PV, seating for 4, and room for more, with views of the night skyline, stars, fireworks, sunset, whales, beach and much more. It is all here, and that is just speaking of your home at 1242 Pacific. Need to check email, or a few minutes of computer time? Why not do it with incredible views of the Pacific from the ocean view, ensuite workstation with wifi private to the condominium! There is much more that awaits you in Puerto Vallarta, I hope for you to explore it all, it may take some time, but it is worth it! You will find 1242 Pacific beyond compare in location, options and amenities.

Wonderful

What an amazing time we had for our three week honeymoon. With the exception of the hurricane, lol, everything was fantastic. Great communication with John. Fantastic location, no issues with the resort. We even got to see turtle hatchlings get released on the beach. What an experience. Would 100% stay there again. A note for newcomers, you can have Walmart deliver your groceries to you. We packed some Ichiban noodles in our suitcase so that we had something to nibble on when we arrived. The fully equipped kitchen was very helpful for cooking meals in. Thank you John.

Breathtaking ocean view

The condo was clean and had a fantastic ocean view from the balcony. The owner John was very helpful and answered all of our questions quickly. The only problem I had was with resort staff. They treated the guests with bracelets unfairly from all inclusive resort guests. The pool staff refused to give a basketball to my son to play in the pool and said that only all inclusive guests could get it. Also, I didn’t like the fact that Vrbo guests were not allowed on the resort property after 8 pm. It’s a great condo but sadly part of a bad resort.

Awesome Ocean View!

Very nice property! Response from Property Manager is excellent! The only downside of this property relates to the very limited access to pool side lounge chairs. Of course, this is no fault of this property. It is necessay to claim a pool lounger early in the morning or you won't get one. The owners do provide three beach chairs and an umbrella for the beach. The Food Park across the street is a nice spot to grab a variety of good food. Highly recommend to stay at this Unit!

Great condo, bad resort

Great place with awesome views if you plan on staying inside. If you or your kids like to use the pool, especially in the evening then stay somewhere else. Pool closes at 7pm, no floats allowed especially if you’re Caucasian, security is selective on who has to follow their rules. And only Vrbo guest, not hotel guests, are required to wear a bracelet and thus treated as sub par guests everywhere on the property. Unfortunately the resort ruined my experience of a great condo on the inside.

Thanksgiving trip

My husband, 5 year old son and I enjoyed our stay at Las Glorias. The place was a great size for us 3 and the view is just gorgeous. We wouldn’t recommend the all inclusive at the hotel, just wasn’t worth the $$. I was surprised, in a good way, how many amazing places there were to walk to. We went to Soriana (grocery store) for food and drinks, went to the food truck park 3 times, and out in the neighborhood and the Romantic Zine with some of John’s great recommendations. Beware of the lagoon/river thing in front of the property that leads to the open ocean. Current is so strong and my son and I really struggled to get out of the water once the current pulled us into the ocean. We followed a ton of John’s advice - went to atms to get pesos, some places took credit cards with no issue, and used cabs to get around town. Would be back but minus the kid next time!

Just the way we pictured it

Wonderful stay, stunning views. Pictures do not do this place justice. We were here for a wedding on the property. A definite upgrade over the other guests rooms. Don’t bother with purchasing the “all inclusive” packages. They’re not worth it. Our friends said the food was awful. Walmart is a mile away and an easy walk (can back) for groceries. Grab some great grub from the Food Park (Food Truck) across the street and bring it back or eat at one of three wonderful, moderately priced Restaurants across the street. Our favourite was La Dolce. Bring or buy a collapsible cooler to keep your beer cold for around the pool or on the beach. Or grab a litre of Mageritas or Mojitos for $125 pesos We will definitely be staying here again when we return to PV.

The Kids Loved It!

We had a great time during our stay at this condo hotel. The room was exactly as shown in photos - beautiful! The view was incredible! Comfortable beds, lots of room for 4 of us to hang out during rainy moments. The kids had the best time swimming in the pool and buying coconuts and mangos on the beach. The highlight for the kids was when we bumped into a guy on the beach releasing baby sea turtles and he let the kids help! For meals we went to Sorianas (grocery store) and did most of our cooking in the room because we have picky kids. We purchased the all-inclusive option from the hotel one day but we didn’t feel it was worth the money for us because we don’t drink alcohol. We went out a few times to the awesome food truck park across from the condo - great food there and a l it the playground for the kids! The only issue to our stay was that as condo guests and not all-inclusive hotel guests the security wouldn’t let us watch the shows or be in the hotel area after 8pm. A minor thing but disappointing for the kids. If you purchase the all-inclusive pass you can still go to the shows. Thanks for a great stay!

Great stay

The condo was just as described with wonderful views and well equipped unit. The communication prior to arrival was fantastic and everything was arranged well. We had a great stay. There are a few good restaurants and a nice food truck park nearby. There is no access to food on the property if you are not all inclusive so either stock the kitchen or be ready to explore a little- we had no troubles.

A wonderful stay

The room was exactly as pictured, even cuter. It was a great stay. The only caution is the coffee maker gave us a lot of trouble! It wouldn't have been a big deal (it still isn't) but we bought grounds and milk for morning coffee! Because of that, I take this stay down from a 100 to a 99%! Overall - wonderful!

When I figured out the internet, it might as well been tin cans and string. Pitiful. I only needed to work 1 hour a day, but could not even do that. If you want to get away from work, this place is for you. I you need to check on things, your screwed.

Beautiful condo!

We had a wonderful stay at John's condo in Puerto Vallarta. This was our sixth time traveling there. Usually we stay in all inclusive resorts, but due to the pandemic we decided to try a condo. This place has the most stunning view of the Banderas Bay. John has decorated it beautifully! We walked to the Malécon almost every day. So many restaurants to choose from and so many great meals and experiences. Be sure to try the Argentinian steakhouse across the street, we ate there twice. We will definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by John

Host profile image
It is my personal commitment to each and every one of my guests to provide the best vacation experience that can possibly be had in this beautiful city and country. Every item within the property, all of the information I provide to my guests, every service offered, and every question answered I provide from the perspective of my guests. If it would make a vacation easier, more complete or in any way better for me if I were the traveller, I do my very best to make it present and available to you as my guest. Having lived here for a few years I have developed knowledge contacts, and ideas that will hopefully be helpful and perhaps bring something new to the experience of even those who have been here multiple times before. Just thinking about Vallarta for your next vacation, and have a few questions? Ask away! I am always happy to help, even if you choose to stay elsewhere. I look forward to speaking with you and perhaps having you enjoy this as your home in Vallarta.

Why they chose this property

Please see the comments about me. But it is all that you need and more, and an amazing home base, if you are like me, and come to a place to explore, and equally welcoming if you just wish to watch the waves, sleep late, and take long showers and walk to the ocean for a massage. This has everything.
