2 BR/2Bth Sea & Mountain View Condo W/ Pool! Short Walk to Best Beach!
We found our perfect vacation place, and we hope you feel the same! Casa Curiel is an airy, light-filled and peaceful 2 bedroom/2 bathroom respite within a quieter, condo complex -- complete with a gorgeous pool. This is also one of the units in this condo complex that has striking views from the condo itself.
All of this is so well-situated in Zona Dorada -- a few blocks from the best beach on the Bay of Banderas, less than a block from restaurants, bars, convenience store, Chedraui -- a big box store, bank, pharmacy and taxi stand.
The condo itself has a fully equipped kitchen with an open concept layout allowing the gorgeous Mexican sunlight to bounce everywhere. In fact, most of the 'walls' to the outside are made of glass patio doors. There is a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a king size bed (really two twins fitted together with a special connector and king size bedding) The second bedroom has two double beds. There is a second bathroom just outside this bedroom. Both bedrooms have sliding glass patio doors that open to let the ocean breeze in. For your convenience, there is a washer and dryer in the condo itself.
There is a deck off of the dining room with an outside table and chairs -- a great place to enjoy your morning coffee (yes, there is a coffeemaker) across from a Palapa roof and with a view of the pool in the background.
For lounging in the condo, we have a large flat screen SMART TV and an upgraded, private internet connection (not shared wifi).
And finally, a short 2 flights of stairs above Condo Curiel is a large patio with palapas and incredible views of the mountains and sea. Its a wonderful place to have dinner or watch the sunset.
The beach is a pleasant 9-12 minute walk away. What is it that makes it the best in the Bay of Banderas? The grade is mild (sometimes even flat if you catch the tide right) so you can walk along it comfortably for miles in either direction. The sand is mostly the fine and golden kind that feels great under the feet -- not too many pebbles. Gorgeous mountain views in both directions. And there are plenty of waves to play in but they aren't too scary big. Don't miss a chance to see the beautiful sunset behind the ocean. We provide you with backpack beach chairs, beach towels, beach toys, and a rolling cart to take everything comfortably to and from the beach, although if things get broken by guests, they are often hard to replace, so we cannot guarantee the presence of all these things.
My husband and I used to rent places to stay from VRBO. We tried to include all the things we wished people had included, so if we didn't mention something, just shoot us an email and ask! Maybe we already have it, or if we think its a good idea, maybe we will get it. We also have a wonderful local manager, Silvia, that can help make your stay comfortable while you are there. She would be happy to make arrangements for maid service or other services you may like. Maid service is provided every 2 week for people staying at least a month.
If you want a place with a homey, comfortable feel, this is a great fit. Not everything is brand new, like it might be in a resort, but it is clean and comfortable, and we renew things as needed like you do in your home. If you see an aspect that has reached the end of its useful life, please let us know. Sometimes our manager can just pick up a new one for you (or reimburse you). If she can't get that item in Mexico, we need to send it or bring it from the states.
Finally, we don't charge a security deposit, because we trust you to tell us if you break something, and just try to replace it locally. This helps keep the quality up for everybody. My manager cannot test and inventory each kitchen item between guests so we trust you to be honest and thoughtful about the experience of the next guest. If you can't replace something you broke and its expensive, we may ask you to reimburse us, but there are few items that qualify for this contingency.
PLEASE NOTE: I know its rare for Bucerias but we are some of the few folks from the US that have discovered this place (don't worry, we aren't telling anyone!). So please note that rates are in U.S. Dollars. You can also pay in pesos.

Yes we really liked Silvia. Our flight was delayed by 3 hours. She waited until 5:30 PM. We arrived something like 8 or later and she came over quickly. A very social place! A small suggestion for improvement would be to change the sofa. Overall we were happy!

The property is in a nice location with everything you would need within walking distance. This property could be improved by cleaning the outside grounds area. The cement sidewalks could be pressure washed as well as the entrance area to enhance the properties beauty.

Paradise!!
This place felt like our home away from home! We had everything we needed and when a storm system came through the property manager checked in on us! The grocery store is next door to the condo. The place is equipped with every thing you need. The rooftop getaway is exquisite and the pool is lovely. When you step inside La Perla Del Mar it truly is paradise. The place has an old style charm to it and I love that there is only one television so it forces your children to interact 😊 lastly we had a beach day since it’s less than 10 minutes away. Everything from the tents, beach chairs, kids toys, and towels were available! Really nice getaway and the property manager is the sweetest person you’ll meet. We arrived nearly 11pm and she stayed to welcome us and give us a tour. 10/10!! Will definitely stay again. Thanks Sylvia

Great Location
Location is fabulous, just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. The grocery store next door (Chedraui) was very handy, although you do need to be prepared for long lineups. There is an Italian restaurant about 5 minutes away that is a must go to.
The complex had great landscaping, and everyone was friendly. It is an older group there but that works for us as it was pretty quiet. We were a bit surprised that the pool wasn’t heated but it did warm up by mid afternoon.
There was a bit of a hiccup with the check in process, the property manager wasn’t aware we were arriving, and the unit hadn’t been cleaned. The property manager did a quick clean and the cleaners came back the next day and then the day before we left the property manager dropped in again to leave cleaning supplies for the next guest. Darcy did give us a discount for the inconvenience.
The unit itself is a bit dated, but everything worked. We did have to buy a toaster because there wasn’t one. It was also really nice to have the barbeque.
Darcy was very responsive and understanding when I mentioned that a tile cracked when we dropped a glass item. She is very organized as well and sent us all the information we needed up front.
Overall, I would recommend this place, Bucerias is a great little town and this place is close enough to everything while still being quiet.

Great Stay
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. When we arrived we were greeted by the Property Manager Sylvie who gave us a very thorough briefing. Both she and the owner Darcy were very good at responding to any additional questions or requests. It was great to be so close to the grocery store and the complex has a very nice pool with lots of places to sit. We enjoyed going to the beach as well which is a nice walk for people like me who like to walk (my husband found it a bit too long) and the umbrellas, chairs and boogie boards provided were much appreciated. The condo is also in close proximity to many good restaurants (we loved the taco restaurant across the street that Sylvie recommended), a taxi stand as well as the bus stop. We also appreciated the ample supply of towels, linens, the comfortable beds and couch and the washer/dryer.

Overall an enjoyable stay
I've been to the area many times before, but it was the first time staying here. The condo was in a great location, in that it is close to the grocery/pharmacy/convenient store, and close to a few restaurants, etc., this was a big plus. It is a bit of a hike to the beach, especially when its hot and if you have small children and/or any mobility issues. Its a bit of a hike to Centro Bucerias and a lot of the shops and restaurants, but taking a cab is inexpensive and renting a cart is an enjoyable way to get around more easily.
The condo is nice looking, was quite clean, minus a few dirty dishes we found, and was bright, open and just one level up from the pool. The kids loved the iguanas out back. The patio was lacking as it is tiny and without comfortable furniture. Unfortunately we found the inside furniture quite uncomfortable as well, which is something that can be improved upon. The pool is large and fun and the kids really enjoyed that.
Unfortunately, for the second half of the stay, the condo could be quite noisy, but this was due to a lot of construction/repairs, and people hollering, sometimes inappropriately (having children around), but that is not the fault of the condo owner of course.
Overall it was a good experience mostly, and I recommend for people who have no issue with distances to the beach etc. Like I said before, it would go a long way to get comfortable furniture to sit on, inside and out.

Kitchen was well stocked with all the gadgets that we needed, I loved the fact that we had plenty of towels for shower as well as big ones for the beach, my children enjoyed the very nice and clean pool just about every day. Staff in the property was always available, friendly and ready to help in whatever we needed. We will definitely return to Casa Curiel in the future and highly recommended to our friends and family.
