“Never wanted to leave!”
Guest : W & B Enns
We recently returned from a two week stay at Villa Gregory and found it to be a wonderful experience. The villa itself is spacious and comfortable with many decorative touches that are a charmingly homey combination of Mexican traditiona/local folk/and street-vendor whimsical. And I’ll admit, except for long,early morning walks, very commonly the tantalising combination of large outdoor patio with an abundance of well-tended, beautiful plants, our own heated pool, gentle ocean breezes and absolutely spectacular ocean/city views kept us at the villa, at least until the heat of the day eased. The walk down to the beach or shops only takes about 10 to 15 minutes but I should mention, it’s not for someone who’s unsturdy on their feet. We’re all pretty fit, so we didn’t find it a problem, but we generally took a cab back if we’d made any substantial purchases. Fortunately, cabs are abundant and cheap. I’d also like to mention that our stay was delightful for more than just physical accomodations..there is also the human factor. Humberto, the property manager, was friendly, responsive and accommodating. Anna, the maid, always a gentle smile on her face in passing, worked quietly in the background to keep things clean and comfy. And a special thanks to the owners, Barbara and Gerry, who were at Quinta Encantada at the time of our stay. While I know it was just a rental, their gracious and welcoming behaviour truly made us feel like more than just walking cheques. And I admit, it is those human touches that have firmly fixed Quinta Encantada in our minds as accommodation of choice for any future visits to Puerto Vallarta.

This place is Great, full view from North to South, spectacular patio with private pool, full living room and dining room. The master has its own sitting area (large) with great views out the windows. Full staff including Humberto who can make whatever you need to happen, happen. Taxi, dinner reservations etc. First time P.V. visitors be aware of the road noise but that is not unusual for Mexico. Recommend Vallarta Eats for a fun dining experience, walking tour to four restaurants with food and drink included. Linda Mar for sunset margarita’s. I would go there again.

Best Vacation Ever! We stayed one week at the beautiful Quinta Encantada and cannot wait to return. Humberto was the most helpful, thoughtful guide you could ask for. He greeted us at the airport, took us to the market, and gave us great suggestions on restaurants. Anna was a dream; she kept the villa spotless and laundered out clothes daily. The estate is simply and elegantly decorated and the views are beautiful and breathtaking. We cannot wait to return!

This was our 5th visit to Quinta Encantada and each time we stay there it only gets better. The location and views of the bay and mountains are exquisite from every vantage point in the villa. The staff is wonderful and promptly addresses every need. The villa is magnificently furnished and well appointed with all possible amenities. It is an easy walk or drive to the beach and the local restaurants are fabulous. Staying here is truly paradise and we cannot wait to return!

This is the second time my husband and I have been to Quinta Encantada and we love it!!! Last year we stayed in Casa Carter and decided to try a different condo. Just one word extraordinary! I don’t think we could choose which one was better. The one plus I will say about Casa Samuel is the private entrance on the side. Casa Carter felt a bit more secluded (which for us a big plus). Casa Samuel does have the most amazing rooftop, great for sunbathing. We love them both!

My husband and I had an incredible experience at the Quinta Encantada. The villa, Casa Carter where we stayed was very private, decorated in traditional Mexican decor and had an incredible panoramic view of the ocean and all of Puerto Vallarta. We were very impressed on how spacious the villa was for being a one bedroom. The amenities were amazing; there was a terrace where we enjoyed the beautiful view of the sunset. Ana the maid discretely did our laundry and cleaned our room. Humberto the property manager accommodates your every need. The first day we got there, we already knew that we would return. The bed in Casa Carter was so comfortable that it inspired us to buy a similar bed upon our return home. It was definitely the best sleep ever! Quinta Encantada was quiet and relaxing and minutes from the beach and downtown Puerto Vallarta. I highly recommend staying here as I can’t wait to return!

Incredibly beautiful villa in a small complex with a few other units (managed by the same owner) — we were the only ones in the complex during our stay, and were welcome to use some of the amenities of the other units. The villa is quiet, spacious and well-appointed, with stunning views of the bay and the city. It is located up a fairly steep hill, but it’s a quick walk to town (15 minutes) through quiet streets and a cab ride back up is less than $5USD.
The owners are very responsive via email, and Humberto the on-site manager was a great resource (picked up some stuff for us from Costco, gave us rides to town/to the airport). Overall an excellent experience, would certainly recommend.

We recently had our second experience staying in Villa Gregory, and I must say, this visit was even better than our first. The spacious and charming accommodations were even more of delight for their comfortable familiarity. From the time the friendly Humberto picked us up at the airport, to the time we settled in pool-side with cold drinks to enjoy the warm breezes on our stunning, picturesque patio, it felt like coming home. The ocean views are glorious and I admit, we enjoyed many a lazy hour gazing out on the peaceful, every-changing ocean. As a matter of fact, in the master bedroom of Villa Gregory, the first thing you see when you wake up is that beautiful view.
Once again I have to commend both Humberto, the property manager, and Anna, the maid for the great service they provide. Humberto is helpful, informative and is the one to see if you need anything – from a ride to go shopping to information on the where and why of things around PV. Anna is warm, friendly, and she keeps everything spic and span.
In our opinion, Villa Gregory and all the other Villas making up Quinta Encantada are great choices if you are looking for top-notch, spacious, authentic Mexican accommodations and they will continue to be our top choice in Puerto Vallarta.
This will continue to be our first choice when it comes to
