What a wonderful two week vacation at Villa La Estancia! Week one was with a group of eight (4 couples) family members and week two we went down to two couples. Such a relaxing and enjoyable experience whether we spent the day on the beach or poolside. We didn’t have to lift a finger, Angel set up our lounge chairs on the beach with towels and opened up the umbrellas for the big group of 8 and the smaller group of 4. Also, drink and food service was stress free. The service staff seemed to come at the appropriate time to take our orders. I would also like to mention the delicious meal we had at La Casona restaurant on Mother’s Day! The restaurant provides a lovely elegant atmosphere. One of the extra special treats at La Casona is the waiter, Eduardo. His attentiveness and heartwarming personality is the best along with his amazing voice, yes he sings! Some of the other special people that made the perfect vacation was the Bellman, Raul; always pleasant and engaging. The Concierge team of Monserrat, Jessie, and Ana were always there for us whenever we needed assistance or had questions. They made requested reservations and provided suggestions on good local places to eat off property when we wanted to venture out. They even helped up with our Spanish as we are always wanting to learn more. Also, if you want to do an activity or a tour, see Alexis in the Activity Center. He suggested the perfect Taco Tour for the large group with some having mobility issues. Lastly, the trip always gets off to an amazing start as we look forward to meeting with our Sales Rep, Paola. She’s such a special person. She’s professional, very knowledgeable, and has a joyful personality.

This Resort is Amazing and has the Best Staff! We love Raul and all the bellmen. Jesus, Angel, and Gabriel our pool concierges, made us feel so special and took such great care of us. Angel in the steak house makes the best Caesar salad and Mexican fire coffee. And last but definitely not least, Angel and Marcus and all the pool servers work so hard and provide us with the best service and drinks. This resort is Wonderful but their Amazing staff is what really sets it apart from the others.

We highly recommend La Estancia if you want a fun but relaxing vacation. The units are nicely furnished, and comfortable. Staff is genuinely warm and accommodating. Raúl was our favorite bellman who always had a smile and a pleasant word. The beautiful beach was the highlight of our trip and we hated to leave. The La Casona restaurant is a special treat with a great food and our waiter Eduardo was efficient, funny AND he serenaded us with his beautiful voice during dinner. We’re looking forward to our next visit in 2028!

Wonderful trip, very relaxing, and felt pampered and cared for. Took advantage of a spa visit, which was phenomenal. Weather really couldn’t be better.. Room was clean and cleaned daily with nighttime turn down service. La Caspna for a few meals and well served by Lorena, Ivome and Daniela. Jesus at the pool was especially wonderful with setting us up poolside!

Villa La Estancia in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico was incredibly beautiful. The suite and facilities were elegant and impeccably maintained. The staff was always professional and helpful; there were no sales pitches, ever. The restaurants on the meal plan were very good, and we did not feel the need to leave the resort for meals. This was certainly the most relaxing and overall best vacation we've taken in years. I would go back again in a heartbeat!
