Our Most Recent Review:

"We cannot wait to come back to Villa Gaeta!
Our time at Villa Gaeta was just magical. We had been to Puerto Vallarta before and stayed at an all-inclusive which was lovely but it couldn't even come close to the charm and care of our stay at Villa Gaeta. The villa itself is just enchanting with all of its traditional architectural flair and the location was very convenient to the Zona Romantica. (The hill you have to walk is a workout, to be sure, but we did it everyday.) The thing that really set Villa Gaeta apart was the service – top notch! Both the owners and Mary, the house manager, were superb in their communication and always quick to reply both before and during our stay. Doria made us delicious breakfasts – we're all craving her Chilaquiles now that we're home! And the rest of the team – Tony and Eduardo – were just great. Honestly, we felt like family. And does it get better than that? There is a large condominium building being constructed which, sadly, obstructs part of the view. But you still get some fantastic views, to be sure! And none of us ever felt bothered in the slightest by the construction. Oh, and around the corner from the house is Serrano's Grill. For convenience one night, we opted to try it for dinner. We were completely surprised by the beautiful atmosphere, wonderful food & service, and stunning views. We'd highly suggest the Rib Eye Burger and the Short Ribs! All in all, we cannot wait to come back to Villa Gaeta!”

Our lovely very private, secure and accommodating OPEN-AIR concept home is located on a Puerto Vallarta Alta Vista hillside overlooking the Bay of Banderas and the famous symbolic crown of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. We are conveniently located in close proximity to the local beach-- Los Muertos, and the old section of town--Basilio Badillo. A ten minute walk from our villa will place you in the heart of town to shop, dine in local restaurants, mingle in diverse neighborhoods, or enjoy night life along Puerto Vallarta's new Malecon stretch. Our staff is committed to having you as the focus of their attention throughout your stay at Villa Gaeta Mexico.

Villa Gaeta Mexico, with its Spanish Colonial appeal, has a breathtaking ocean and city view from the vantage point of every room. Each of the three bedrooms has a king-size bed canopied with mosquito netting, access to balcony and a full private bath. Wake-up or retire for the night to fresh air, bright sun, blue sky or moonlight. Rooms throughout the villa are traditionally decorated and designed for the comfort, and pleasure of our guests. Our OPEN-AIR dining area, OPEN-AIR kitchen, OPEN-AIR living room, OPEN-AIR plunging pool and deck with lounge chairs are all unencumbered by walls or windows. Our villa is truly romantic, well situated for honeymoons, families, friends and private small business retreats. Yes, we keep our guest in mind with every management decision. We aim to please from the time house staff greet guests directly from the airport to the day of departure.

Treat yourself to a real vacation and let us take care of you: we offer a full-time housekeeper to make-up beds and tidy up rooms, attend to your laundry needs and upon request Doria will cook an authentic gourmet Mexican dinner. Should anything go wrong with our property during your visit, our on-duty maintenance man is available to take care of the unexpected.

Awesome Villa
We were a group of four adults staying at Villa Gaeta. We loved the layout of the home and the open space kitchen/pool area was awesome. There was plenty of both sun and shade seating options by the pool. Bedrooms were all lovely with king sized beds and views. Staff and communication with house manager was excellent. Close walk to shops and restaurants.

Traveling Group from Chicago!
Our stay at Villa Gaeta was amazing! From the onset, we received a warm welcome from answering questions pre-arrival to our actual stay. The property and amenities are top notch. Upon arrival, Mary and Tony greeted us and walked us through the home and explained in great detail how to navigate the home and guidance on the surrounding area. The view from the main area is stunning, even with the condo building which obstructed the view (NOT the owners fault). The staff was friendly and extremely attentive. Having fresh breakfast in the morning is a very refreshing touch and is something we definitely enjoyed. (Thank you Doria, Tony, and Lalo!) Honestly, could not ask for better assistance with maintaining the upkeep. I would highly recommend staying here if you are traveling with family or large group of friends. This place is truly a gem.

Beautiful Villa Overlooking Zona Romantica
Villa Gaeta was just as beautiful as advertised in the listing. The location was perfect and allowed us to easily walk back and forth from ZR. As other reviewers have stated, the hill back is no joke and we sometimes took a cab back at night. Mary was very helpful and was nice enough to get us some provisions to have on hand prior to our arrival. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Stay
We had an absolutely wonderful time at Villa Gaeta! It was immaculately clean upon arrival and maintained throughout the week. Doria’s breakfasts were amazing and a lovely start to each morning. The pool was great to return to every day and Mary was super helpful in arranging taxis for us. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend-better than expected!!

Really great property, love the indoor/outdoor area downstairs with the pool. Staff is helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Walkable location, although Ubers are nice to take back up the hills.

A Week At Villa Gaeta
We have been coming to PV for 10 years and love the old town and getting into the neighborhoods, Villa Gaeta has a great location, and old PV-style open living. The beds were great, very clean, and maintained. The staff was exceptional. Be prepared to walk some stairs. We will be going back soon.

The villa was beautiful! Perfect for my little family! The staff was so nice to us. They made us feel at home. Can’t wait to go back! The only bad thing is the walk it’s to steep. If you’re in good shape you can walk but if not it’s better for you to Uber.

I highly recommend this place
Mary and the rest of the staff were incredible. They made this staff extra special with the amount of detail, hard work, and care they put into the property and accommodating the guests. The property was beautiful. My 5 friends and I loved staying here. It had a beautiful view and we loved swimming in the pool whiling taking in that view. The location is pretty close to the bars and restaurants. We ubered mostly because we didn’t want to walk up the hill to get to the place but if you’re more physically fit, go for it! It was a little difficult to find initially but Mary was very communicative in helping us find the place when we go there. I would highly recommend anyone to stay at this place!

Excellent Location to Zona Romantica (Romantic Zone/OldTown)
Four of us (2 couples over 50) stayed at this property for seven nights in February 2023. The location was perfect & although the property is located up hill from downtown, it was far more walkable than other areas we have stayed in the area; however, if you are not into walking or out of shape, please plan to take a taxi or Uber to/from the house. The property manager, Mary, was extremely helpful and responsive to all of our questions and issues. The staff (two) was there every day except for Sunday from about 9:00 am until 1:00pm. Doria prepared a continental breakfast each day which included fruit, danish from a local bakery, coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice. The villa offered a menu of other breakfast options which we had prepared twice but found the prices significantly higher than going downtown to eat. We did not opt to have any prepared dinners at the house as there was a cost to prepare, a cost to shop and the cost of the food — again, much cheaper to go out to explore the many amazing and extremely affordable restaurants PV offers! Having stayed in other staffed villas in PV for the past 15+ years, this one did not offer the level of service we have received in the past, so if you are looking for pampering or service beyond a continental breakfast and bed making, this is not the villa for you. The house is a lovely, older authentic Mexican home. It has not been updated and could use some refreshing (bedding, towels, furniture, etc.).Overall, just fine!
