Casa Guacamole: Magical 5 BDRM Open-Air Hacienda with Million Dollar Ocean Views
*As featured on HGTV's House Hunters International: "Connecting in Puerto Vallarta", Season 104, Episode 3
Casa Guacamole now has fiber-optic internet!
Casa Guacamole is a very special property that sits on the hill above Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in the "Gringo Gulch" area of downtown Puerto Vallarta. A three level hacienda offering 180 degree views of Banderas Bay and the ocean from all 5 bedrooms, great room area, kitchen, dining area and pool. The 3rd floor has two bedrooms with ensuite baths. The 2nd floor includes master bedroom/bath and 2 other bedrooms - one bedroom has ensuite bath, the other has a large bathroom across the hall with double vanity and separate areas for shower and water closet. All bedrooms have large balconies and king size beds, with the middle bedroom on 2nd level (bedroom #2) and the southern bedroom on the third level (bedroom #5) having the option to split the king size beds into two twin beds. Main level has formal dining area for ten, media room, family room, kitchen, casual dining area for ten, full bath, pool, outdoor dining area for ten, and fountain - "open-air" concept so few walls to delineate the space. There is a nice breeze throughout the home, but all bedrooms have air conditioning. The pool area has a large built-in 8 burner grill, lounge chairs, dining table for ten, as well as a fountain and swing chair.
Two lovely women, Erika & Carolina, enhance your stay by coming six days a week to do housekeeping and provide complimentary breakfast cook service {excluding Sundays, holidays, and check out day}. They are also available to prepare lunch or dinner for a nominal charge. We highly recommend this service, as they are as talented in the kitchen as they are pleasant. Our concierge can arrange most anything you'd like at the casa: airport transportation; massages, facials, and pedicures; excursions.
Casa Guacamole's location offers stunning views, as well as close proximity to great restaurants, night life, shopping and only 5 blocks to the beach/Malecón. We are on the hillside, but an inexpensive cab ride can get you to the house if walking the incline is not your thing.
Please send a message with any questions that you have about the property or services that interest you. Once booked, we will email information about car service options, our favorite local restaurants, concierge contact information, pre-stocking the casa, menu, etc. Please let us know if you would like that information in advance.
We look forward to helping make your vacation to Puerto Vallarta the trip of a lifetime. Please see our website with same name.

Casa Guacamole was a beautiful location. The bedrooms, bathrooms and eating places were excellent. It was truly a pleasure to spend both day and night at the property. It was an excellent experience!
This is truly a stunning open air home. Each bedroom offers spectacular views of the ocean. The pool area was a great gathering place for the family during the day. The hit of the stay was definitely Erika & Carolina. They kept the place spotless and prepared better meals than anywhere else that we ate. We will be back.
We had such an amazing stay at Casa Guacamole! Such a beautiful home. The staff and owners were courteous and helpful and kept everything well stocked and clean. The rooms were big and very comfortable. It was an incredible experience; our group was already planning a return trip!
I thought the property was really great. There was plenty of room, and the views were amazing. The property manager, Alfredo, and the staff, Erika and Carolina were available at all times when we needed them. I would highly recommend this property for large groups who want a vacation inside a vacation.
It was BEAUTIFUL and we were a group of 10 friends and family that were able to celebrate birthdays and a surprise engagement. And we just fell in love with Erica and Carolina who are amazing cooks and so helpful with local information.
We chose Casa Guacamole for a Saturday to Saturday stay to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday based on a strong recommendation and the property, host & amazing chef's still exceeded our high expectations, so it's my pleasure to give this stay 5+ Stars so that others may enjoy as we did! We had family stay for the first part of the week, then switched to host friends in the second half, it was perfect. Every room is truly amazing and has it all, easily enough room to sleep 2 in each room, amazing view, and a balcony plus great individual room A/C units that get as cold as you would like it. Staff was outstanding and that's an understatement - meals were EASY and BEST WE'VE had!! We asked for many recipes to attempt to recreate - Make sure to order Chillaquilles for one of your breakfasts!! Gladly answer any questions, we stayed in in October of 2024!
We have had the opportunity to do a lot of travel and we cannot rave enough about the Casa Guacamole experience.
Every bedroom is spectacular and beautifully appointed with Its own bathroom. And, because the Bedrooms are located on floors two and three there’s a lot of separation between the common area and the bedrooms.
The views from the common area on the main level are unparalleled. There’s so much space on the common area. Our group of 10 was easily able to hang out with with each other or to get away from each other.
We ate at all three of the dining areas and Carolina and Erika were the most gracious chefs and greatest cooks that you will get the opportunity to experience in Mexico.
The pool is spectacular and was serviced on a daily basis, as were the many plants scattered throughout the casa.
While there is a little bit of a climb to get to the house, it is a simple cab ride from downtown if you don’t want to get the exercise.
If there’s any question about where to stay in Puerto Vallarta With a larger group, there’s no question that this should be the only place that you would want to stay.
We stayed at Casa Guac 14 nights spanning Christmas and New Years. The home itself is stunning. It was sparkling clean & very comfortable. We were an extended family, with two people in their 80's. Be aware that the stairs are extensive at this property. We knew there were three stories, with bedrooms on the second and third levels, and planned on the grandparents being up just one level, which they can handle. But what we didn't know is that just to enter the front door you have to walk up a very steep incline, then go up a long staircase. That was quite difficult for the older folks. The views are absolutely spectacular, especially at New Years. We had a sweeping view of all the fireworks around the entire Bay! A drawback of being up on the hillside above PV is that sound reverberates upward all the way from the boardwalk way down below. There are tons of loud festivities (someone on a microphone all the time) during the xmas holiday season in the evenings, and at times it sounds like they are literally right on your patio - well into the night. There are also loud dogs that bark a lot. That was difficult for some of us. Overall, Casa Guac was absolutely lovely and I'd stay there again, but not with people that have mobility issues (or younger kids- so many stairs), and probably for a week or less. The location, right in centro, was awesome for us that could manage the walk. We loved getting to know PV's centro!
This property is truly unique and amazing! The photos do not show all the great detail and history. Would absolutely stay there again! The roads are steep and narrow leading up to the property. But that is part of the charm of the neighborhood.
It was a very special place. Carolina and Erica made it even better. Their attention to detail was fantastic. We wound up eating in most of the time because the food was unsurpassable in any restaurant in Puerto Vallarta.
Casa Guacamole is without doubt the best VRBO I have ever rented! It’s so well designed with beautiful decor every time we turned around. We loved the ‘babies’ we saw thru out your home, channeling good luck and energy! The views were impeccable from every room. My family had an amazing few days there with 2 wonderful women who made sure everything was well taken care of. The only draw back would be getting there as most drivers were not familiar. But we made it happen! The walk down the hill was ok but going back up the steep hill was hard. I would still recommend it because the house itself was beyond excellent, very charming and quaint. I can’t say enough!!! Thank you for our stay!!!
We truly enjoyed our vacation atCasa Guacamole. Meals prepared by Erica and Caroline very delicious. Information provided by Andrea accurate and detailed. Overall a great experience. We highly recommend the place!
The owner stayed in contact throughout the entire stay and her staff and itinerary’s made available to us were extremely helpful. This was a memorable vacation and stay that my group and I will forever cherish. Definitely willing to return and staying at Casa Guacamole in the future. Beautiful, cultural, and amazing property!
Our group had a wonderful and relaxing time at your home. We had Carolina and Erika prepare our dinner meals and they were amazing! We definitely will be back! Thank you!
I can't rave about this house, you will be so happy to book at this gorgeous property. our group was so happy with our stay. The rooms are gorgeous, the property is phenomenal. We loved being so close to everything. Yes the hike up the hill is a workout but well worth it
Do not think twice about booking here. We can't wait to go back
The whole over all experience was great. The staff was wonderful and they cooked great meals and kept everything tidy and clean for us and they were very pleasant and wonderful. I would definitely recommend other people to stay at Guacamole home. And I look forward to a return visit there .
This beautiful property left no details undone. From the communication of the owner Andrea, to the staff; Erica, Carolina, Fredrico, and Jorge we were always impressed.
Definitely would rate a 5 star!!!
Can’t wait to return.
Pictures don’t do this property justice. Carolina and Erika were an amazing part of our vacation. Everything is a short Uber ride away, but once you arrive you won’t want to leave. Furniture is up to date and the amenities were better than expected. Hands down, the best VRBO experience.
The house is stunning! Great AC in each room. Indoor/outdoor areas were fabulous to hang out in. The breakfasts by Erika and Carolina were delicious. Amazing view from the pool deck area and each balcony. The only negative would be that the house is up a steep hill so may be hard for anyone disabled or difficulty walking.
Our party of 10 can't speak highly enough about Casa Guacamole and everyone associated with the property. It is beautiful, tasteful, and authentic. The only caveat is the steepness of the cobblestone approach to the front door can be daunting for both drivers and pedestrians.
