The Neighborhood:

Villa Amistad is located in El Cerro, Puerto Vallarta's historic heart, one of the city's original hillside neighborhoods overlooking Banderas Bay. Our quiet cobblestone alley is home to longtime Mexican families, creating an authentic, close-knit community where neighbors know and look out for each other. It feels genuinely Mexican, lived-in, and safe. Guests love staying here because they can walk to downtown energy, beaches, restaurants, and nightlife, then return to a peaceful local neighborhood with spectacular ocean views and the real Puerto Vallarta experience.



Getting Around:

he Malecón is just a 5-minute walk downhill. The Romantic Zone, Los Muertos Beach, Centro, and 5 de Diciembre neighborhoods are all within 5 to 25 minutes on foot. The hill up to the villa is moderate; Ubers and taxis are plentiful and very affordable if you prefer. Local buses run along the main roads below for just 10 pesos.



Other Things to Note:

Families

Families with children are welcome, but please note the villa is not childproof. There is an unfenced pool, open stairs, low railings, and breakable artwork and pottery. No children's furniture or toys are provided. We encourage parents to reach out before booking to make sure the villa is the right fit.
