About this property

Villa Estrella Mar - Five Star Luxury - Staff - Private Pool - On the beach!

Truly the finest rental in Puerto Vallarta, Villa Estrella Mar can sleep 16 guests in 7 indescribably unique bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. (Possible 8th bedroom can be added for an additional fee to bring capacity to 18) Vaulted ceilings, custom furniture and one of a kind art collected throughout Mexico and South America is displayed throughout the villa. Master Suite level is over 4,000 square feet with expansive ocean views and a private balconies. Walk along the beach to Old Town/Romantic Zone.

This luxurious oceanfront property has easy and direct access to a secluded and swimmable beach as well as a private heated pool and poolside terrace bar, exercise room, smart TVs and complementary WiFi access.

Full time staff of fifteen including two English-speaking houseman and two private chefs, and two maids. Leave all the cooking, cleaning, shopping, and laundry to us and prepared to feel pampered. 24 hour security, locked compound, with security cameras at entrances. Also the perfect spot for a destination wedding - inquire for more details.

More on how meals work: Our wonderful chef's services are included in the nightly rate. They will do all shopping, prep work, cooking, serving and clean up for two meals each day at no additional cost to you. The cost of groceries, both food and drinks is additional and we just pass it onto you (with receipts – no service fee) at the end of the week. For planning purposes, estimate $40 a day per guest staying. Keep in mind this number will be on the lower end should you choose to eat out, if you have a lot of kids, vegetarians, or nondrinkers in your group. This number can be higher should you choose expensive seafood options such as lobster or shrimp each meal accompanied by top shelf liquors and pricier wines and beers. We recommend you give our staff around $1000 dollars upfront to reimburse their shopping, check in mid week, and then of course settle at the end of your stay. All money for groceries must be paid directly to our staff in CASH only, as they do not have a way to take credit cards or checks.

Breakfasts have many items that are served family style from platters of fresh fruit and bacon and a potato dish to everyone’s favorite French toast! Then, you and your guests have the option of ordering additional items such as yogurt parfaits, omelets, or machaca burritos individually. Lunches and Dinners are ordered as a group, meaning everyone is served the same dish. Our chefs are happy to work around any dietary requirements to accommodate everyone. Dinners can be up to four courses including appetizers, a soup or salad, a main dish and dessert. Sunday is our staff’s normal day off, but a fantastic family style breakfast is still served. A smaller simpler lunch or some appetizers can also be ordered. Sunday evening is a great opportunity to head into town for dinner and enjoy some of the fantastic restaurants PV has to offer.‍

Tipping of the household employees is voluntary, although customary in Mexico. The amount of the tips would, of course, depend on the service, the length of stay, the number of guests, special service and so forth. We are frequently asked how much to tip and have established a guideline that may be of help to you. We recommend $20.00 US per person in your party per day as a good starting point. For example: A group of 12 who are staying 7 nights, 8 days would be $1920. This tip will be divided among Paco and the rest of the Villa staff. It is best to put the entire tip in an envelope and give it to Paco to distribute. This way, some of the people who make your stay pleasant, but whom you seldom see, such as the watchmen, are not forgotten.

An Awesome Experience!
I celebrated my 60th Birthday here with my partner and 14 other friends. The entire experience was awesome and began with a welcome margarita when we arrived at the front door. The house and grounds are spectacular; they’re well maintained and very clean. We spent most of our time at the pool and Paco, the house mgr, and his team couldn’t have been more attentive, friendly and personable. The meals were delicious and consideration was given to those with food allergies. This team has it all nailed down to ensure an overall excellent experience. Disappointments? I had none, nor did my guests. I highly recommend Villa Estrella Mar.

beyond our expectations. complete in location, staff, service overall, food, and the attitude.we can
magnificent. the accommodations to us were much, much more than the videos we saw and the photos sent to us. Each room, entry hall, outdoors halls and sitting areas had beautiful plantings and works of art. The house is listed as 22,000 square feet, but because the outside is so much a part of the inside the square footage feels huge, giant, immense. A Mexican Mansion on the pacific. You can't judge this property based on anything less than seeing for yourself. However, without the staff and their attitude to make your stay absolutely the best the villa would be just another large house. Paco, Oscar, Lola, and all the rest of the staff could not have performed any better than a 5 star hotel, restaurant, resort, but it was a home and that is the difference. Within hours we were part of their family and they part of ours. Aside from losing a day in the beginning of our stay do to Frontier not alerting us our flight was cancelled our family started arriving a day later. Once, however, when we did arrived it was one of the most outstanding trips with the family we have ever had.

Summer vacation
This house is incredible. It has all the modern amenities that us gringos like, like WIFI, ceiling fans every where, iPads to control Spotify music in the whole house, individual super efficient AC units in each bedroom, yet at the same time it is built and decorated with that old Mexican Hacienda feel to it. However what really makes this place, is the staff. All of them are very friendly, attentive and very polite and engaging. There is a lot of staff around but you barely see them. When you get up, coffee is ready and they are making breakfast. While you eat, they go and clean the rooms and make the beds. When you are eating dinner in town or downstairs, they go up and clean rooms again and close all the shutters and turn A/C on for you to sleep comfortable. It is very humid in summer in Vallarta. They will make you any drink you like. They will go shop for groceries for you, always with a smile. They will call you cabs and make reservations for you, or get you an airport shuttle. Anything you need.

About the host

Hosted by Jordan MacPherson

Host profile image
Roger and Nancy MacPherson with the help of their daughter Jordan have worked to make this vacation destination an unparalleled experience. Together we have owned properties in Puerto Vallarta for over 40 years now and have always loved the friendly family culture and inviting environment. Villa Estrella Mar in PV was built with the idea of having an authentic rustic Mexican architectural experience. The design provides many private spaces to relax but has gathering places to celebrate together. Our staff is one of our biggest assets. The English-speaking house staff is there to help with any of your needs from adventures to food choice. They are employed full time and can be trusted as they pamper you and your friends.

Why they chose this property

The Romantic zone in Puerto Vallarta is a true treasure of Mexico, nestled below the plush jungle hillsides with its cobblestone roads and beautiful homes with phenomenal views. As the city has grown it has maintained its friendly personality and rustic feel, you will see families strolling hand in hand down the Malecon and will always feel safe. Villa Estrella Mar embraces this same personality and maintains that authentic rustic feel while being known as one of the most complete and beautiful villas in the entire world. The Villas closeness to Old Town is an easy walk by beach or a $2.50 UBER ride. You are so close but without the vendors, noise and hustle. It's truly a jewel and we would love to share it with you! There is no place in Puerto Vallarta that can even come close to the luxury and convenience that this Villa offers. It will truly be an experience you will not forget. Whether you are looking for an escape for the stresses of your every day life or a trip full of adventure, Puerto Vallarta will not disappoint.
