Villa Maria was everything we could have asked for - absolutely stunning property.

This home is absolutely beautiful and has a true Mexican/Spanish charm from the moment you walk in. The majority of the house is on one level, with two attached bedroom casitas that are accessed from outside. This worked out perfectly for couples who wanted to retire early while others continued enjoying the main house in the evening.We had a group of 10 couples and never felt cramped. The home, patios, and outdoor areas have a large footprint and feel much more spacious than many of the newer homes being built in Pedregal. It truly felt like staying at a private small resort.Marilu, the owner, was wonderful. She greeted us with welcome margaritas, gave us a full tour of the property, and introduced us to the housekeeping and maintenance staff. She stayed in contact throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. When we asked for the pool temperature to be increased, she was able to adjust it remotely right away.Marilu also helped coordinate shuttle services through her concierge contacts, and the transportation was always on time and available when needed. Chef services were offered as well, although we did not end up using them.We especially appreciated Marilu’s hospitality, communication, and professionalism. Our original VRBO was cancelled just three days before our trip due to maintenance issues, and Marilu was able to accommodate our group and all of our needs on very short notice. She helped turn what could have been a stressful situation into a

GREAT house with AMAZING views! Host and concierge were very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Check in and out was simple and the housekeeper was super efficient. The house is absolutely lovely- the architectural detail combined with the beauty of the sea and mountains around made everyday feel like paradise. The neighborhood of Pedregal is safe and quiet. Taking a walk gives you many views of gorgeous homes and the nature that surrounds. It’s all hills so you get your exercise in too! A private beach is an 18 minute downhill walk- stunning and peaceful. You can walk into town (20 minute down hill walk) but the concierge will happily arrange a taxi to pick you up too which we used mostly. Beds are comfortable and bathrooms are huge. Only 4 of the bedrooms are in house. 2 with King beds are attached but only accessible from the outside. We all enjoyed the Mountain Club across the street. It’s a spa, pools and dining with awesome smoothies. You can’t go wrong with Villa Maria in Pedregal! We can’t wait to visit again.

We had several issues with the house when we were there. It started with the coffee maker being full of little insects. Then we had air conditioning issues. First, there was water that dripped from the master bedroom closet vent all over our clothes. Then the master bedroom A/C went out altogether. They did come replace the compressor within 24 hours but then it froze up a day later and we were without A/C in the master bedroom for two nights. We paid a high premium for the house and did not expect to have issues like this.
