Family-friendly vacation rentals in Fraccionamiento Altavela

Just a beautiful place to stay. The last time my husband and I went to Puerto Vallarta, we stayed in a hotel, which was more expensive and honestly, chaotic and crowded. Staying at Alexander's place was the opposite - peaceful, full kitchen, beautiful rooftop pool, and the location could not be better. 10/10 would stay again. The apartment was gorgeous.

My stay at Álvaro’s place was absolutely incredible. The property is private, secluded, and secure — perfect for a peaceful getaway. The views are truly stunning, overlooking both the ocean and the town below. It’s hard to put into words how breathtaking it is! Despite the serene location, access to town is easy and convenient. The home itself is well-equipped with amazing amenities that made the stay even more comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a relaxing stay with unforgettable views. Thank you, Álvaro, for an amazing experience!

Our second time staying at this gem of a place with an ocean view one block from the beach. Elíseo is a gracious, helpful and communicative host. We will be back.

Absolutely incredible stay! This place exceeded all our expectations. The location was perfect—peaceful and quiet, yet just a quick 3–5 minute Uber ride from all the best restaurants, beaches, and nightlife. The rooms were spacious and beautifully designed, with breathtaking views that matched (and even surpassed) the photos. Everything felt clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. Mirianne was an outstanding host—super responsive and helpful, which made our entire stay seamless and stress-free. It was our first time visiting Puerto Vallarta, and thanks to this amazing experience, it certainly won’t be our last. Easily a 10/10!

Javi's place was just as described! Beautiful rooftop pool, short walk to beach and great restaurants! The area was very peaceful and safe. All the people we encountered were so welcoming and friendly! Jan (our Concierge) met us at the elevator and took us up to our condo. He took us around the condo and explained everything necessary for a great stay. He was super responsive with my questions too! I would definitely stay at Javi's place again when my travels bring me back to Puerto Vallarta!!

Muy lindo lugar, privado y con unas buenas instalaciones. Unas vistas increibles, realmente te sientes como en casa.

This place is amazing. It has so much character and charm. The private terrace is so cool! You get the best sunset views and it's the best place to hang out during the day or by night. The bed is super comfortable and the location is perfect. You're really close to everything yet it's on a quiet street and you're up quite high so you have a nice private, relaxing place to enjoy. I'll definitely stay here again when I'm back in Puerto Vallarta.

Excelente alojamiento, súper cómodo y bien ubicado a unos pasos de la playa, la piscina era hermosa y con una magnífica vista. Mi familia y yo quedamos encantados con nuestra estadía.

This place was perfect for pool lounging and taking in the amazing views it has to offer! Nicely equipped gym. Beautiful jacuzzi on balcony.

Really enjoyed our stay at Kathy’s place. After just a few nights, we liked it so much that we were lucky enough to extend our stay. Would definitely rent the upstairs in future to have friends or family come along with us. Can’t emphasize enough how great it was to have air conditioning and hot water on demand. We also used the washer and dryer more than expected, so that was great too! And always appreciate the little touches, like beach towels and a few puzzles :) It’s nice to have kitchen basics and a little bit of patio furniture, as the outdoor space is really nice to spend the afternoon relaxing. Thanks for having us Kathy, we hope to return!

Gabriela and her team are great hosts. Response time was fast. They recommended restaurants, an in house chef, a massage professional. All great things to enjoy a wonderful vacation. The view from the balcony and pool deck are amazing! The staff of the building is kind and friendly! The place looks like the photos. It’s spacious and nicely lit. Kitchen is fully stocked with all major necessities. The pool within the balcony is fine for temperature especially when visiting during summer and high humidity times it’s refreshing. The building is a fairly nice stroll downhill however it gets steep at some points and there’s straits. I walked it up twice up. If you want a nice mini workout dig in if not the humidity will get ya. Uber is also a nice cheap drive back from any area of the Zona Romántica. Theirs also cute koi fishes in the pond within the level of the apartment

The bungalow was perfect. It gave me everything I needed and more. Walked to the grocery , coffee, and a couple local places for amazing tacos and delicious inexpensive seafood. My dog loved the garden/ yard area so much she didn’t want to leave! Estefano, Ben and family were amazing ~very attentive and caring. Comfy bed, clean open space, cold air conditioning and everything you need to cook a meal too. I would definitely stay again. Recommend.

Everything was amazing. We stayed there before, and this was truly an amazing experience. Not that others were bad, but Karol was an amazing host.

We had a wonderful stay at David and Claus's place! The home was beautiful, with plenty of common areas to spread out, well-stocked with amenities, comfortable bedrooms, and well-located near lots of delicious restaurants. The hosts were very quick to respond to any question or inquiry and let us store our luggage after checkout. One thing to note for people hoping to work remotely: The internet is very fast and can support multiple video calls, but it works best close to the router. Thank you for hosting us!

Excelente lugar, el anfitrión muy amable y al pendiente en todo momento. Fue en viaje familiar con mascotas y nos sentimos muy agusto. Cuenta con áreas verdes al por mayor, por todos lados, fue realmente agradable.

Thank you big! Margaret and her staff were amazing! Carmen was delightful and made sure we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail was an extra special touch. We celebrated a 70th birthday and she decorated and had a cake ready as an added surprise. Bonus tip...her cooking was WONDERFUL! Highly recommend you stay in and have her treat to you with a good home cooked meal! Great communication from the very beginning with Margaret with fast response time. We love visiting PV and will definitely keep Margaret and this listing in mind when we come to visit again!

This condo was exactly as described. Despite being a condo it also had several nice amenities such as an onsite restaurant, an onsite spa and their prices were very reasonable. You can also order drinking water and ice from the lobby and order housekeeping services. for a reasonable cost. The condo also had some beach toys and boogie boards that we were able to borrow. Definitely an Airbnb we would love to rent again.

Un lugar muy limpio a pocos minutos de la playa, cerca de Vallarta y Bucerias. Tiene clima en toda la casa y cuartos, perfecto, sus camas son muy confortables. La alberca grande está en frente pero es area común y se disfruta. Está muy completa la cocina.

Loved our stay at Andrea's place! Great location, very large and comfortable unit. Really great space for 3 couples. Everything we needed to cook meals. Balcony is huge, the view is beautiful, and the unit is very convenient to the elevator that goes down to the pool/beach. The resort is very well kept and staff were very friendly. Andrea was really great regarding communications. The resort tries to sell you the all-inclusive option and have you go to a timeshare breakfast when checking in, but we declined. Attending the breakfast gives you lots of discounts at the resort, but we were only there for 3 days, so we didn't want to spend any of our time on that. We found the prices at the restaurants/bars at the hotel to be fairly reasonable.

muy agradable estancia, la vista increíble desde sala, alberca infinita para adultos con vista al mar, oxxo abajo para hacer compras. Seguro volvemos pronto. solo considerar que a la fecha de mayo 25, están arreglando el elevador.

We were a bit hesitant to book an Airbnb for this trip, but the incredible reviews convinced us to go for it and we’re so glad we did. The condo exceeded our expectations in every way. The condo was clean, spacious, peaceful, and in an amazing location. We loved relaxing at the large, quiet pool onsite (often with no one else around) and also spent most of our time enjoying the Vidanta amenities, including the Grand Mayan pools, restaurants, and walking paths. Getting into Vidanta was quick and easy every time. What truly made the trip amazing was the host, Lupita. She was like a personal tour guide: friendly, responsive, and full of great suggestions for places to eat and explore. She always responded within minutes and made everything feel seamless. The staff at the building were also incredibly welcoming and helpful. This stay exceeded all our expectations, and we will 100% book this place again on our next trip. Huge thanks to Lupita for making everything so perfect!

El departamento estuvo increíble, se apega a la descripción totalmente. Fuimos con toda mi familia, niños pequeños, adolescentes y adultos y todos disfrutamos enormemente. El servicio de Karina y Raúl (personal de apoyo) nos facilitó muchísimo la estancia. Muy atentos, serviciales y amigables. La ubicación con la alberca, y el mar enfrente no tiene precio. La vista al mar de las habitaciones, es HERMOSA!! Gracias por todo, regresaremos.

Hermoso todo. La alberca es un poco pequeña, y para nosotros que éramos un grupo grande no nos funcionaba, pero pudimos utilizar las albercas de los condominios. Solo hubo unos detalles que me gustaría compartir para que se consideren. Los A/C les faltaba mantenimiento y casi no enfriaban, el agua de las regaderas solo salía caliente. Entendemos la regla de no ruido excesivo después de ciertas horas, pero el personal de seguridad nos dijeron que no podíamos ni estar platicando en la alberca privada en la noche. El último día estuvimos en una de las albercas, e igual nos dijeron que no podíamos tener música (aclaro que no estaba ni fuerte y era la 1pm), pero obviamente acatamos las reglas y apagamos la música. Y luego nos fueron a decir que no podíamos tener vasos de plástico mientras estábamos en la alberca. Pero, otras personas tenían vasos de plástico adentro y a ellos no les dijeron nada… si vas en plan de amigos consideraría otras opciones. Fuera de esto, todo muy bien!! Grax Sam

Wonderful vacation apartment hosted by Alejandra and Jose! Very attentive and welcoming super hosts! The apartment is very clean and is fully equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Located in a very secure tourist zone, super close to grocery stores, and a lovely walk to Bucerias for restaurants. Easy bus access across the street taking you Puerto Vallarta. We will definitely be back and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to friends. Muchas Gracias to Alejandra and Jose!
