La Dulce Vista
Villas in the Sierra Madre above Puerto Vallarta
A place to stay in Puerto Vallarta
La Dulce Vista Hotel & Villas sits in the Sierra Madre above Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The property runs a collection of self-contained villas — each a private unit with mountain views, attached bathroom, flat-screen TV, and free Wi-Fi — alongside a pool, hot tub, garden, and on-site restaurant and bar. Villa categories range from a standard queen-bed unit to a three-bedroom option that sleeps families or groups across five beds. Free parking is on-site, pets are welcome in designated rooms, and an airport shuttle is available for an extra charge.
Who it's a good fit for
A villa-style stay above Puerto Vallarta with mountain scenery, a pool and restaurant on-site, though the guest rating of 5.8/10 across 5 reviews signals inconsistent experiences worth researching before booking.
Best for
- Families needing multi-bedroom space
- Travellers with pets
- Groups wanting a private villa setup
- Guests who need free on-site parking
Less suited to
- Travellers prioritising a high-rated, well-reviewed property
- Those wanting to walk to the beach or downtown
Pool, hot tub and sun deck
The outdoor pool and hot tub sit alongside a sun deck with outdoor furniture. A picnic area and garden round out the grounds, giving guests usable open-air space beyond the villas themselves.
Mountain views from every villa
Every villa category includes mountain views. The Deluxe Villa adds a river view on top of that. All units are self-contained, with private bathrooms and a seating area — more space than a standard hotel room.
Three-bedroom villa for groups
The three-bedroom villa spreads across five beds: two kings in the first room, two fulls in the second, and a twin in the third. It is the property's largest configuration and starts from $368 per night.
On-site restaurant and bar
A restaurant and bar operate on the property, so guests do not need to leave for every meal. Breakfast is available. Fruit, wine, and champagne can be arranged for an additional charge.
