Summary: Truly a gem in zona romántica! Check in was simple between Isela and Abel! We were also lucky enough to have fresh guacamole waiting from Dair (possibly the best I’ve ever had). I can’t say enough good things about the whole experience but here’s what you, the reader, care about;The place is a wonderful couples get away. It’s extremely private, especially for PVR. It’s clean, roomy and has everything you’ll need. If not, Abel is your guy!The pool is heated to a perfect temperature, you’ll never want to leave. Stairs to the beach just left of Almar. Barely 5 minute walk to first breakfast spot, back down the road. We walked everywhere but there’s almost always a cab right outside the front gate if desired. Night in the casita was completely quiet, out in the pool you mostly hear the waves on rolling onto the beach, very little city noise. We will absolutely be back again.

Summary: Stunning property, fantastic staff, and the kindest most gracious owners I've ever had the opportunity to meet! Scott and Doug are fantastic, their dog Gordito is the icing on the cake! The condo is beautifully appointed and comfortable, with 2 beautiful outside seating areas and a stunning little private pool. The staff were so hospitable, eager to answer questions and respond to any requests that were made. I honestly can't say enough about them, they truly are gems! I was planning our next visit before our first had even ended!

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at La Casita Escondida. We were greeted with a lovely spread of guac, chips, & a margarita which was perfect because it was so hot. Isela was super responsive to our questions & requests, our space & the communal spaces were always super clean. Our little plunge pool was the perfect little hidden oasis to escape the heat & have quiet time. We recommend staying here--it was located near night life, restaurants, etc. Always felt safe. If you want more bars/night life they are only a 20 minute walk or a 5-10 minute cab ride away. The beach is also a 5 minute walk away. Great stay!

Summary: My husband and I stayed here when we visited for a friend's wedding and for our own little honeymoon. The Casita and property as a whole was stunning. Everyone was so helpful and kind from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect for getting out and exploring Zona Romantica or walking along the beach. It was truly the perfect getaway and we didn't want to leave!!

Summary: Our family had reserved this studio in addition to the adjoining main house for all of us to stay together. Worked out beautifully with a perfect balance of social and private space. Self contained and well appointed, really suited us well but would also be a great space on its own. Private deck and dipping pool were a nice alternative to heading to beach. Owners are lovely and have the cutest pup for 3 zones !!!

Summary: We ( a couple in our mid 50's) had the pleasure of staying at Casa Ladera in early March. It was a great choice in every respect. If you are looking for comfort, relaxation, and a chilled out experience then Casa Ladera delivers. This property is exactly as advertised. Clean, comfortable, quiet and in a great location. Five minute walk to the heart of old town, but far enough away to enjoy quiet and solitude if you choose. The apartment and all the amenities were simply perfect. The staff were very friendly, accommodating and responsive. Muchas gracias to Mark, Keith, Toby (woof!) and all of the staff at Casa Ladera for a great experience. Saludos! Ed and Linda

Summary: We flew down to PV to join with friends from BC for a birthday celebration and quiet getaway. Upon arrival we were nicely greeted by Keith and Toby ( Mark had just had back surgery but still managed to greet us as well) and we liked the location and the little studio very much. After having had a cancelled flight the evening before and not much sleep we were looking forward to a great nights sleep to wake up refreshed and ready to go. Unfortunately for us that did not occur! There is a building next door with a very narrow tiled stairway between and guests next door had the tv on so loud that even with earplugs it was as if they were in the room with us! That went on until almost 1:00 AM. We regretfully had to complain and Mark handled it promptly and it was better afterward but I feel I had to mention it as no other reviews mentioned noise. That said it IS Mexico which is not especially quiet anyway! Mark and Keith are wonderful hosts and people and very helpful as well as Patricia the housekeeper and the grounds staff as well. As mentioned in other reviews this property is at the top of a pretty steep calle and several steps up to the apartment. We are both pretty fit so no worries for us but if you have mobility issues this may not be your spot. We also really appreciated the dipping pool and lush little patios. Before we departed the villa on the top level became available to view and... OMG... it is stunning!! If you had 2 or 3 couples to share it you would be in heaven! All in all our stay was fun and pleasant and I sincerely hope our noise issues were a one off. I would certainly have given 5 stars had it not set us off on a rough note! Thank you Mark,Keith and Toby
