For two families, this was a perfect house. Two master bedrooms and the other two bedrooms having multiple beds for the kids. We enjoyed watching the boats come in and out every day and the fish were always jumping to keep us entertained while swimming. The location was very close to restaurants, shopping etc in Chahue and Santa Cruz, but too far to walk. So having a driver is handy (which we had).The management group was well organized and communicated well.

We stayed during 10 days in Casa Buena. The house and the rooms are confortable and big. There is a lot of equipement ! whatever you need, search and you'll find it. It is great to have a 3 bed room downstair, so that the kids have their space (and the parents far away on the 1st floor). Also, we liked the fact that the Wifi was not strong enough to reach the kids room, ensuring us to know when they are connected or not. The pool looks greats on the picture, but it is even better in real ! we spend a lot of time in it, enjoying the view (You can see parts of the Chahué beach), having fun with the kids and having drinks.I would like to call out the villa management, that was able to fix in a few hours on a saturday a AC issue we had. Always responding quickly to our asks. If you can, make sure to book the boat tour to see all the hidden beaches of Huatulco, with really nice snorkeling spots.We enjoyed the Villa and Huatulco and the services provided.

We took a chance and booked this Villa through My Huatulco Vacations. From the very start of our two week Christmas adventure everything and everyone was fantastic. The management staff were so responsive and helpful and couldn't be easier to deal with at all times. We had Gladys (cleaner) three times and week and the place was spotless. We loved that they had a Christmas tree up for us as we travelled with 10 family members, four of which were expecting Santa to arrive! The beds and furnishing were comfortable, just right for a family vacation and in very good repair. The pool was the hit of the vacation...warm, clean and so fun! We were a bit worried about the location, wondering if it was too far from town but we ended up renting a couple of scooters for the two weeks and cabs were very easy to flag down from the end of the road. There are enough dishes and equipment for large groups and all were in good shape. There is a roof top patio that we did not use as the shade umbrella was not installed and it was too hot. It has a washer and dryer in lower level but the washer has a tricky start button that could be fixed. Also,as a Canadian I object to paying in American dollars, would prefer pesos. The beaches around the community are great for everyone... I highly recommend Casa Buena Vida and the management company for your vacation. We will be back I hope.

Overall, a very satisfying vacation stay. We were three couples and a single so the four bedrooms each with its own washroom/shower was perfect. On the positive side:The transportation service to/from the airport and our driver Moises was terrific.Our cleaning lady Ana Maria was also terrific, and as a bonus helped us figure out how to get the oven going and fixed the LR blind that had an issue.The property manager Jose was 100% responsive and reacted promptly to any issues we had (A/C unit, washer, hot water) and the maintenance workers that came out (Jose Antonio) were super.The beds and pillows were comfy.The four restaurants we visited were excellent (Terra Cotta twice, La Crema, Xipol, Rocoto)Cabs were inexpensive to get to/from restaurants and the grocery store (50 pesos each way).On the negative side:The dock out front was quite noisy and irritating.We did see one roach and small scorpion near the pool and one roach in the house.A small misunderstanding regarding water delivery and payment.It took a bit of figuring out as to the fact the BBQ needed to be plugged in to get the lighter to work.The house was for sale so we were slightly inconvenienced when showings occurred.
Beautiful home, excellent staff and property management
We rented this home to attend a wedding nearby, and were very pleased. The home is very clean, wonderful staff, and we added chef service which was very good. It was easy to call Taxis for transportation anywhere in town. Great choice for a relaxing vacation!
Once again, it doesn’t disappoint for the second time can’t wait for the third time.

House with a good location
The house has a good location, 3 rooms have a nice view and the 4th is in the basement (no view). VRBO helped to find and select the property, however the entire rent process/agreement is handled by an external agency, "My Vacation Huatulco Property Rentals".
My only recommendation is that If you are planning to reserve tours/excursions, you can do it at the Marina in Huatulco and find a much better price instead of using "My Vacation Huatulco Property Rentals".

This was our sixth time to Huatulco and our second time in Casa Buena Vida - our first since our first MHV rental six years ago. We were ecstatic to be able and get back to Buena Vida and jumped at the chance when it presented itself. It is the best house we have rented in Huatulco - incredible views, the great swim up pool/bar and the best staff of Ana Maria and Tim. Everyone at My Huatulco Vacation makes the entire experience seamless and are there at any minute to answer any questions or concerns. We had just an incredible week and are already booked to come again next year. We can't wait already!

This was our first time renting a house rather than staying in an all inclusive so I was worried how it would go. I should not have worried. The house is beautiful - with lots of room for everyone. There are multiple decks and levels that allow for different meeting places if guests want to spend time apart or together. The house has every amenity you can imagine (a pump to blow up pool floaties, every pot and pan you could possible need, dvds, books, a cooler, umbrella to take to the beach, board games...). The house has an excellent location as it overlooks the water, is private, but is only a ten minute walk to the supermarket and restaurants. Ana Maria and Jose are wonderful! We will return next year.

They told me that the kitchen and living room A/C units were out of service and missing parts. It was extremely hot and in my desperation I turned them on to see if they worked. Guess what? They lied, they do work but orefer to tell guests the AC units don’t work so that you don’t use them and save energy. If I would of known that the ACs were not working in the common areas and only in the bedrooms, there is no way I would have booked this property. On another note, the description says daily maid service. This is not true and misleading. I booked a stay for 5 days and services was provided twice. Olease update description to reflect reality.

This was our fourth time to Huatulco, but the first time that we rented a villa rather than stay in a hotel. It was the best decision we've made. The property is absolutely stunning. As gorgeous as all of the pictures on the website are, they do not do the villa justice. The views of Marina Chahue are great from every level of the house - and from in the infinity pool. The restaurants and shops at the Marina are a quick walk away, and you can walk to Santa Cruz in about 20 minutes. We can't say enough about the staff. At check in we were shown how to operate everything in the house. Gabriela then made sure we had contact for an english speaking taxi driver. Getting to and from La Crucecita or Santa Cruz was a quick phone call away. Ana Maria and Jose are the best in house staff imaginable. Anything that we needed was provided and things we didn't even think about were taken care of. The only complaint was that one week was much too short for all that Casa Buena Vida has to offer. We can't wait to come back!!

We arrived to find the driver we arranged through the rental waiting for us with a sign. A representative was waiting at the house to check us in and this took no time at all.We decided to have a chef prepare dinner for us the first night and it although a bit pricey, it was absolutely delicious (we had the Grill night with Margarita add-on) and we had enough leftover for dinner one night later in the week.The house was just as it looked in the pictures. It was perfect for us as we were two couples and there are two identical master suites upstairs. The only disappointment we had was we thought the house would be within walking distance to more things and we ended up taking a taxi most of the time, especially at night because the lighting on the street and marina was not as bright as we would have liked for walking at night. The house is near a marina which has 3 restaurants. The walk to the marina was fine during the day, but we still took a taxi back at night due to the limited lighting. The house is in a neighborhood that is not complete so there are vacant lots with no lighting. We felt perfectly safe, but decided not to walk at night due to the dark spots.Anna Marie and Jose did an outstanding job keeping the house and the grounds up and Anna even did our laundry up for us a couple of times. She could have cooked for us as well, but we usually had our breakfast before she arrived. She did a great job cleaning up though!We also booked a couple of excursions through the rental company. We did a sunset cruise with a snorkel add-on and a trip to the Waterfalls. Both were excellent and it was nice that they were private.One note, although the house was spotlessly clean, it is in a warm climate and we kept it open to the outside almost all of the time with no screens giving bugs (ants/spiders) the chance to come into the house.We would absolutely stay in this house again!
