The Villa

An established retreat above the Pacific, fully staffed, with 25,000 square feet of interior living.

Villa Magnifico sits on a private hillside above Mismaloya Bay, thirty minutes south of Puerto Vallarta's Zona Romántica. Twenty-five thousand square feet of interior living unfold across three levels — corner master suites with panoramic views, a full-floor game room, an indoor dining hall that seats twenty-four, and a heated infinity pool that finishes at the cliff edge.

A dedicated team of seven keeps the villa running: a chef and assistant cook, houseman, waiter, daily housekeeping, and a full-service concierge. Villa Magnifico is a 20-minute drive from downtown Puerto Vallarta and a three-minute drive (or ten-minute walk) to Mismaloya Beach. The villa sleeps up to twenty across ten named bedroom suites — bookings can be configured from 5 to 10 bedrooms; guests retain full access to common spaces regardless of room count.

A Day at Villa Magnifico

Three moments, on repeat.

01
Morning palapa breakfast

Arrive

Coffee at eight, breakfast at eight-thirty on the terrace with Banderas Bay opening below. The houseman greets your arrival, the chef confirms the day's menu, and the concierge has already arranged your first excursion.

02
Pool and rooftop terrace

Settle

The salt-water pool is heated and waiting. Sun loungers, paddleboards, the three-minute drive to Mismaloya Beach. By midafternoon the cocktails appear without needing to ask.

03
Dinner under the palapa at sunset

Linger

Dinner at seven on the indoor or outdoor table that seats twenty-four, mariachi or saxophone if you've asked. The staff bid you good night, the rooms are turned down, and the lights of Vallarta flicker into view across the bay.

Services & Amenities

Everything is taken care of, before you arrive.

Indoor Comforts

Smart TVs and Bluetooth audio in every suite, two formal dining areas (indoor and outdoor — each seats 24), filtered water in every tap, individually controlled air conditioning throughout.

The Setting

Mismaloya — south shore, thirty minutes from town.

Mismaloya is the south-shore cove where John Huston shot The Night of the Iguana in 1964 — a small fishing village that grew into one of Puerto Vallarta's most enduring beach destinations. The villa sits on the hillside just above the village, with the Pacific opening below and the Sierra Madre rising behind. Beyond Mismaloya, the south shore opens up: Las Animas, Quimixto, and Yelapa are all reachable by water taxi from the village pier. Sailing, sport fishing, and whale watching all launch from the same stretch of beach.

"My husband's 60th birthday getaway with family and friends was everything we could have wished for, and more. Every meal was delicious, fresh and healthy. The attention to detail and help with every nightly event was priceless. Thank you to everybody at Villa Magnifico — it was perfection."

"This villa is a hidden gem. The views are spectacular and the staff and service are stellar. Sandra cooked the most amazing breakfasts, Luis made the best margaritas, Conrado made happy-hour snacks and the prawn quesadillas were incredible. We will be back."

"We stayed at Villa Magnifico for our wedding weekend with a group of 20. We were welcomed with margaritas. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, and the casino-style game room kept us up late. The infinity pool, the staff, the breakfasts, lunches, dinners, drinks and snacks — everything was perfect."

"The Villa accommodated 19 adults and 2 kids with ease. From booking through prestocking and concierge, the professionalism was phenomenal. The pictures don't do it justice. Rudy was a magician, knowing our needs before we did. Carla organized all special events. The best holiday all of us had ever experienced."

"Villa Magnifico lived up to its name — extremely spacious, comfortable, well maintained, and incredible views from pretty much any room. Chicho and Rudy were highly attentive. Conrad and Sandra made incredible meals. Luz and Carolina kept the rooms spotless. Best crew ever."

"Three of our sons are married, so with our five sons, three daughters-in-law, and two grandchildren, we flew to Puerto Vallarta to join our daughter from Maui. Chicho, the afternoon house manager, greeted us at the front door as we pulled into the gated parking. The villa never let us down."
