Read our outstanding reviews! La Villa Reyes is a "free-standing" house that is not attached to any other buildings or residences - it's all yours!
La Villa Reyes at Playa Las Tortugas is a secluded oceanfront community on a gorgeous beach. An upscale tropical paradise on Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit region on the Pacific coast. Entrée Magazine summed up the picturesque setting, “ a gorgeous, coconut-producing plantation, an 1100-acre estuary teeming with exotic birds and a turtle camp protecting the endangered olive ridley turtles.“
Villa Reyes beckons you to the travel experience of a lifetime, with a 2,000 square feet home with air conditioning in the two bedrooms on the first floor and the dining and living areas on the second floor. The third floor provides 1,000 square feet of open deck - equipped with a wet bar, palm covered palapa, full size outdoor day bed, dining table, and lounge chairs. Our community averages 300 sunny days per year.!
You will enjoy privacy and tranquility with ocean views and the sounds of waves from both king size bedrooms, kitchen, living room, dining room and the rooftop deck. The pristine beach is just a leisurely 3-minute stroll through colorful tropical flowers, foliage, and coconut palms. Only yards further up the beach is the mangrove-lined, fresh water estuary where you can kayak among 125 species of exotic birds, including the resident pelicans and roseate spoonbills.
Canoe or swim across the estuary for lunch at one of Platanitos’ six sand floored, oceanfront restaurants. Enjoy a walk or a barefooted run on our 5 miles of uninhabited sand beach that is lined with palm trees and goes on as far as the eye can see. The ocean waves are great for boogie boards, surfers, and ocean kayaks. The large community pool and the new 65 ft lap pool are just steps from La Villa Reyes and are favorites of our guests. Even small children can participate in the release of hatchlings from the Turtle Camp, with sometimes as many as 1,000 in one evening.
La Villa Reyes is one of only two Tortugas rentals that offer air conditioning in all rooms – a special benefit when the mid-day temperatures heat up. A clothes washer and dryer are located in the Villa and the staff will gladly do your laundry. The kitchen is equipped with full-size appliances and bottled water is supplied. Bath and bedroom linens are provided. Beach towels also!
The Villa has 2 king-size beds. Both spacious bedrooms have full baths, including large tiled showers. Each bedroom opens to a covered lanai. The large closets are adequate for a long term stay. A hairdryer is provided in each bathroom. Air mattresses are also available and a "Pack and Play" are available for children. Our roof-top day bed has custom insect screening and perfect ocean/pool views. This bed can provide 'starry, starry nights' for the adventuresome.
Highchairs are available. Close parental supervision is needed for children on the rooftop deck, near stairs, and in the water. Childcare can be arranged by our staff.
There is daily maid and garden service to ensure your villa and the grounds are in top condition for your enjoyment. The gardener will assist with renting kayaks, getting wood for beach bonfires, and getting coconuts for guest consumption.
The dining room table seats eight. The dining room table and computer desk are well positioned to retain the ocean views while you relax to use the home's WiFi or just read a book.
There are two additional dining areas – one on the second floor balcony and one on the rooftop. For those of you who would like to leave the cooking to us, we can arrange affordable/authentic Mexican meals prepared in your villa by our wonderful cooks.
The den has a flat screen TV/DVD player for free NETFLIX movies. It adjoins the kitchen and provides great ocean views/sounds. Books, board games and playing cards are provided. Colorful Mexican tiles and tasteful accent pottery throughout the house will add to your enjoyment.
To reach Playa Las Tortugas, guests will travel 70 miles north from the Puerto Vallarta airport and 270 km from Guadalajara. Good roads will take you by mountain passages, small villages, roadside fruit stands, and the scenes become progressively more rural in the heart of the Riviera Nayarit. By the time you turn west toward the ocean, you will see major farming which produces tons of pineapples, large herds of cattle, and huge mango orchards. Arrival at Playa Las Tortugas before sunset is recommended to avoid bikes and stray cattle that could be on the roadways.
This area from Puerta Vallarta to Playa Las Tortugas has a great reputation for traveler safety and cordial citizenry. Top security firms have found Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit among the safest tourist destinations in the world.
The weather in Riviera Nayarit is widely recognized as some of the best on the Planet. Average year-round temperatures range from highs of 80 to 85 degrees to lows of 60 to 70 degrees. Most rain occurs from June through September and even then, most rain occurs at night or during pre-dawn thundershowers. Much of the year is characterized by deep blue skies and ocean breezes.
There are multiple options for transport from the airport. Many guests choose to rent a car from companies like Gecko Car Rentals (they pick up and return you to the airport/they include insurance in the rental price). Some guests use bus/taxi transportation. We also offer a private airport shuttle that will stop for lunch and grocery shopping in Puerto Vallarta. (Our staff can also provide provide next day delivery of grocery items you may have forgotten.)
A Washington Post reporter called Playa Las Tortugas his "Shangri-La", the place I could recommend without reservation or caveat.” Our secluded beach community will indeed take you back to the 'old Mexico'.
To complement this tropical paradise, the well-appointed La Villa Reyes will provide comfort, privacy, serenity and memories to last a lifetime. (For optimum privacy, remember that La Villa Reyes is a free-standing dwelling - not a duplex nor a condominium.

Summary: We enjoyed everything Playa las Tortugas had to offer from the ocean to the estuary to the pools to the sunrises/sunset. What made everything so easy and special was having Maria and Mario there -- they were both so great! They attended to anything we needed in terms of transportation, planning excursions, getting snacks/groceries, getting across the estuary, and even gave us ideas of things to do with the kids we hadn't thought of ourselves. We really appreciated being able to communicated easily with John before we left. He really took the time to answer all of our questions. Everything was wonderful and relaxing.

Summary: Our stay at this house was great. It had everything that we needed to make our meals and be very comfortable. The place was very secluded, and the beach was just a short walk away. It was nice to have the pool to ourselves. The only thing that was bad, was the road. It had just recently rained, and the road was very muddy. The listing is very accurate except for the fact that the washer and dryer listed is not actually for guest use. If you need laundry washed, the maid will wash it for you. But all in all, the place was very clean, had all the amenities listed and we would definitely stay again. We had so much fun and the scenery is amazing!!

Summary: This villa is a dream come true. We loved the clean and comfortable rooms, we swam a lot in both the lap pool and family pool, and loved the local home cooking from housekeeper Maria. And don't forget your binoculars if you’re a birder, theres dozens of specues right on the grounds, plus a beach and estuary. Really an amazing place. And great communication with the owner John.

Summary: From start to finish, our trip was fabulous. We had excellent communication from John before our trip so we knew exactly what to expect and how to navigate Covid travel. Mario and Maria were so wonderful and helpful and Maria’s cooking delicious and plentiful and it was a real gift to not have to cook. The house was spacious, well appointed, nicely decorated, comfortable and very clean and we loved relaxing in it when we weren’t at the pools or the beautiful beach. This is a special place!

Summary: We had a blast and cannot say enough about La Villa Reyes. The property and surroundings are beautiful and kept in immaculate condition. We immediately felt a sense of peace on our arrival and were immensely appreciative of Mario's presence to welcome us as we pulled into the driveway and for Maria's snacks after our long journey. John and Roberta were stellar hosts from the get-go, addressing all questions and/or any concerns we had before our stay and were kind enough to check in and make sure all was well during our stay. Maria is a gem and her cooking AMAZING! We were so very grateful for all her and Mario's help - exceptional! We will definitely be back. Thank you! Just to note - if you are on the sensitive side to noseeums and mosquito bites (as one of our family members was - the rest of us were fine), make sure there are sufficient insect repellant/anti-itch.

Summary: We were very happy during our stay at this house. Very nice quiet place, with large gardens, two pools, steps from the beach. The gardener and her wife were very servicial. We definitely want to return. Make sure you bring enough food and drinks since there are no grocery stores near.

Summary: It is the second time we stay at Villa Reyes. Ken is a super host and his team (Maria and Mario) are always willing to support you. The house is impeccable and the food delicious.

Summary: This is a perfect off the beaten path property that may take a little extra time to get to, but the reward is worth it... quiet, remote, beautiful spot with all the comforts of home. The villa is clean & full of Mexican charm. We stocked up on food at the Mega store on our way there & also enjoyed some amazing home cooked meals from Maria. Mario helped arrange some fun activities (kayaks, whale watching/fishing) and the kids had fun boogie boarding the perfect sized waves at a beach all to ourselves. Wifi wasn’t the best, but that was a small price to pay for the awesome location. Would highly recommend this place (but please don’t tell too many of your friends).
