The neighborhood
Villa Amistad is located in El Cerro, one of Puerto Vallarta’s original hillside neighborhoods overlooking Banderas Bay. Our small cobblestone alley is home to long-time Mexican families, many single middle-aged to older women, and a few gay men — a close-knit
community where neighbors know each other and look out for one another. It feels authentic, lived-in, and safe. Guests love staying here because they can enjoy the energy of the city, then return to a peaceful, local neighborhood that still feels genuinely
Mexican.
Getting around
The Romantic Zone, Centro, and 5 de Diciembre neighborhoods are all within walking distance—most places are 5–25 minutes away on foot. The hill up to the villa is moderate; guests who prefer not to walk are welcome to use the many Ubers and taxis readily available
and affordable in this area. Local buses run along the main roads below and cost 10 pesos (exact change required). Our concierge service by Faby can arrange airport transfers and private transportation during your stay. Her contact information is located in
the digital guidebook available after booking. Parking is not allowed on Arroyo del Pedregoso, but free street parking is available on nearby streets.

Interaction with guests
One of the things guests love most about Villa Amistad is how cared for they feel — without ever compromising their privacy. While some of us live in separate private apartments on the property, the main villa itself — including the pool, terraces, and all
guest spaces — is reserved entirely for you and your group. We’re nearby to ensure everything runs smoothly, but never intrusive. Our presence in shared spaces is solely to support the staff, handle maintenance, or respond to requests — always with your comfort
and peace of mind as our top priority. Whether you’d like insider tips on the best local spots, help coordinating a special experience, or simply attentive service when you need it, we’re here to make sure every detail of your stay is seamless and memorable
— while always respecting your space.
