Location: Mexico

Nearest Airport : Puerto Vallarta at 70 Miles

Villa Del Mar is located on the beautiful Nayarit coast, a scenic hour and a half drive north of Puerto Vallarta at Playa Las Tortugas. “Riviera Nayarit' is largely undeveloped and is being carefully planned to ensure the natural resources are protected. Our 5 mile stretch of pristine undeveloped beach is designated as a protected sea turtle nesting habitat, where, in season, guests can witness this magical nightly event or take part in nighttime baby turtle releases! Our adjacent natural salt water estuary is home to thousands of migratory birds and other wildlife. The nearby villages reflect the spirit of Mexico's charm, where locals farm the rich soils for the produce and tropical fruits they sell at local markets and roadside stands, as well as markets displaying locally made handicrafts. Nearby excursions include a spectacular waterfall, Indian ruins, and a wildlife river boat ride.

Further details for this vacation villa rental in Playa Las Tortugas / Turtle Beach, Mexican Riviera

REVIEWS: Environmentally Friendly: “I have the privilege of experiencing a working sea-turtle camp firsthand because I am staying at Playa Las Tortugas, a charming, ecologically minded property on an otherwise uninhabited stretch of pristine beach. Next to a tidal estuary lined with mangroves—where I spend a glorious afternoon in a canoe, spotting roseate spoonbills and great blue herons,among other bird species—this property demonstrates the value of conscientious development.” Alaska Airlines Magazine

“A residential development dedicated to environmentally conscious living”. ~ Robb Report Vacation Homes .........

“Each day, I would ride a boogie board in the perfect surf, kayak the pristine estuary that borders the property, do a little birding or horseback riding, and tour by car and foot the scenic Sierra mountains. Then, about 9 p.m. each of the three nights I was there, I’d walk a few hundred yards from my villa to the research station. There, I worked alongside trained staff, spotting nesting turtles, then digging up the eggs for incubation......” The Washington Post March 5, 2006

Other Activities:

sea kayaking, activities at nearby turtle conservation camp

A magical vacation

Review Submitted: March 20, 2011 Date of Stay: March 2011
We stayed here for 2 weeks with our young children and friends, and at the end no one wanted to go home. The house is AMAZING, with very private rooms each facing the ocean, and a HUGE amount of space to easily accomodate our party and children. We got lost in the constant sound of the ocean, the mirad of things to do (from kayaking/surfing/horseback riding/eploring estuary/dinner at nearby fishing villages/etc) to just walking for MILES along completely unpopulated gorgeous beach surrounded by palm trees and breaching whales. All the kids loved the pool, and thrived in the stunning yard and gardens. There is a daily maid and laundry service, and a cook available if you would like to do absolutely nothing. The little fishing village has some great restaurants, and nearby town has a friendly and easy feel that made excursions a fun gettaway for everyone.

We feel completely spoiled and appreciative of having the good fortune to stumble upon this gem!

Spacious villa on beautiful beach

Review Submitted: January 17, 2011 Date of Stay: December 2010
Thank you Pat for answering all my questions earlier. It was all as you and your listing said and more!
Spacious villa on the beach with plenty of inside and outside common areas allowing us to gather as a whole family comfortably or have a quiet private space. I am so glad that we had the PLT van pick us up and also had our meals catered. Miriam's cooking was excellent! The highlight of our trip! All the Mexican dishes were delicious. It made our family Christmas holiday so relaxing for all of us when we did not have to purchase food or cook. PLT is a beautiful area and the staff work diligently looking after all the vegetation which is so pleasing. The kids loved the surf and all the water toys you supplied. All of us loved the distance of the villa to the beach where we could hear the surf all the time and watch the most fantastic sunsets from the porch.Gabriel and Pascual responded to our every request and need. Their English skills were greatly appreciated!!
We all felt very much at home in your villa with your beautiful art work and large supply of Mexican dishes giving it that extra feeling. It is my hope that we will return.

Review Submitted: February 22, 2010 Date of Stay: February 2010
Hi Pat! Just wanted you to know that we had a FABULOUS time at your villa over the Christmas holiday. I've attached a photo my son took one evening when the moon was so bright you could practically read outside! The warm glow coming from the villa quite nicely sums up the feelings we all had while we were staying there -- it was a home away from home...and more! Aurora prepared wonderful meals -- we loved trying to figure out which meal was which from the sample menu list. Gabriel was always helpful and we enjoyed chatting with him. He and the staff do a wonderful job of keeping the villa and grounds beautiful and clean.
During our stay our younger son proposed to his girlfriend -- while they were surfing (he had the ring in his pocket)! So, that added to the special time we were already having together. My 90-year old Mom, who never really had Mexico on her wish-list of places to go (!), enjoyed it as well. She especially enjoyed being lulled to sleep each night by the soft sound of the surf, and being able to walk such a short way to the beautiful beach and pool.
We loved that the distractions were so few -- we played games, worked on puzzles, read, rode horses, relaxed...and oh how we enjoyed those meals! The three surfers in our group had expected to be driving around to find surf spots and were pleasantly surprised that the surf was quite good right at "our" beach!
I have shared your VRBO listing info with friends and hope they will one day rent your villa and have a similar, wonderful experience. It is a unique and special place and I hope it can stay that way.
Peace --
Jane & Dick Tracy

Review Submitted: January 18, 2010 Date of Stay: January 2010
This has been an incredible month for us. Dave and I both are celebrating the
big 60 and our gift to one another was to rent your place and enjoy it with our
family. It has been beyond our expectations. This house is really not a
rental..,.it feels like a home and is so well supplied with water toys, games,
books, cooking utensils. We found everything we could have ever needed.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful paradise with us. We can't thank you enough.

August Vacation

Review Submitted: August 31, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
The location was fantastic. Very secluded and right on the beach. The sunsets were great every day! The beach is clean with great soft sand.
Bring insect repellent during the summer and make sure you have all the food and stuff you need before you get there. Stores are not near by!
The house was clean and well maintained.

Make sure to look for turtles !
