Beautiful location. Pool was awesome. The condo Is bigger than it looks on the listing. Beds were comfortable and kitchen is a good size with a big pantry and large fridge. The host was attentive to our needs. The lock out 3rd bedroom is in the hall way off of the laundry room and the hall is shared by 2 other privately owned condos. We never saw anyone in the other condos so we donât think anyone was there. This room is good if you have other adults or a nanny etc but I didnât love that I needed to lock the door between our units at night and that we had to lock that bedroom each time we left. But it worked fine for my 2 young adult sons.
Very convenient location close to the Marina (two min walk). We primarily just hung out by the pool and ate at the grill by the pool for lunches (closes at 5pm and fairly priced). Dinners we mostly made in the kitchen (hint: Uber eats delivers groceries, as does Costco and a couple others). Pool was amazing with the kids and condo had a wonderful view over the development and the ocean. Host had great communication and was lovely to deal with.Would certainly come back.
Our one-week vacation in Puerto Vallarta was transformed into a dream getaway during our stay at Frank's condo. This splendid retreat offers not only everything one could need, but so much more, making it a paradise within paradise. The condo is incredibly spacious, comfortably accommodating our party of five with room to spare. A highlight many guests, including us, have enjoyed is the private elevator that opens directly into the apartmentâa touch of luxury that enhances the entire experience.
The condo features two expansive bedrooms, and an additional room with its own shower and separate entrance, which was perfect for our 24-year-old son, providing privacy and convenience. One of the standout features is the vast balcony that offers breathtaking views of the pool and the majestic ocean beyond.
We spent numerous blissful hours by what is undoubtedly the largest pool I've ever seen, complemented by impeccable service. Almost daily, we indulged in delightful lunches and refreshing drinks poolside. Our evenings were spent exploring the vibrant Marina area, where we discovered culinary gems every night. Of note, I highly recommend dining at La Terrazza di Roma, Natureza Marina for lazy late breakfasts, and Victor's Place Cafe Tacuba for its lively atmosphere.
Although there were plentiful options for excursions, we found ourselves perfectly content to soak up the sun and enjoy the serene beach and pool. This place is a true gem for anyone looking to experience
The pictures donât do it justice! The patio is huge, the condo is beautiful, the pool is amazing, the beach is private. Beautiful sunsets!The restaurant by the pool is reasonably priced with great food for breakfast and lunch! The restaurants near by at marina are excellent. We felt very safe and it was quiet which we liked! Frank was very easy to work with! 10/10 recommend!
There's a reason why this listing receives âïžâïžâïžâïžâïž...
Great communication between you and the owner.
Excellent location.
The condo. More than you can expect. Everything, furniture, beds, bedding are on the newer side. Spotless and clean!
The condo is located within the marina and mins away from fine dining and entertainment.
If you are looking for a super private condo, with all amenities, great pool, excellent on-site restaurant, gym this is the place.
We had a fantastic stay at Frank's condo in the Shangri-La property! Frank was easy to work with and helpful with suggestions on places to eat in town and at the marina.
We were grateful to try a few new places that are now favorites!
We love being so close to the marina with so many choices for great restaurants.
And the Shangri-La property is really top notch. It has to be among the best swimming pools in all of Puerto Vallarta or anywhere for that matter, but it's never too busy - you never have to go reserve a chair - it didn't matter what time of day, we always had our choice of perfect places to sit and enjoy the pool and sun.
Frank's place is clean, well-furnished, roomy and the balcony is huge. It has chairs to lounge on and a nice table to sit and enjoy the view for breakfast and in the evening as the lights of the city come on - honestly one of our favorite times seeing that amazing view of the ocean, bay and city . Beds were very comfortable. Nice bathrooms and showers. We played games around the table in the living room.
The concierge arranged taxis when we went out. Soriana super market is a 5 minute taxi drive away with a good selection of food. We ate out more than half the time but also used the appliances at other times. Everything worked flawlessly.
This was our third time at the Shangri-La and our first at Frank's place. We'd go back to both in a heartbeat and hope to again before very long. Thanks Frank for a great time!
Shangri La is our favorite resort, bar none. Frankâs condo is fantastic and has all that is needed for a enjoyable stay. The unit was exactly as advertised. Frank provided excellent communication throughout the process and I would highly recommend his condo.
We cannot say enough good things about our time at Shangri La and PV. We had stayed in Shangri La before so we knew the benefits of the location and product. It never disappoints! Views are spectacular, staff is attentive and the proximity to the marina is the best part. Our family walked to supper each night.
The condo itself is well appointed and very clean and comfortable. Frank was extremely helpful and available as needed. The gate staff was helpful when our daughter needed medical attention. The pool restaurant was excellent! So quick and a nice option to spend more time relaxing vs. getting groceries. Very reasonable prices!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. We will absolutely be returning
Extremely clean and well maintained grounds, pleasant staff.
The unit itself was perfect in every way. It was the rainy season and huge balcony to watch the weather go by, right across the street from the marina which is one of my favorite places to be in Vallarta.
My best recommendations to anyone visiting the area. Minutes from the airport and always a cab waiting on the street
Our family of four had a fabulous time at Franks property! It was absolutely beautiful. The unit itself is huge and very comfortable, great beds, everything you need to cook, and lots of room to spread out. The pool and restaurant were our favorite! The restaurant has great food and drinks and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. We couldnât have asked for more! Frank was very helpful and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you Frank for a wonderful experience:)
This is a fantastic property with a very well appointed condominium. The unit is huge and has every amenity to enjoy a Puerto Vallarta getaway. It is well furnished and the beds are all very comfortable. The gourmet kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a couple of meals. The internet was easy to access and provided speeds in excess of 250mbps.
The Shangri-la is right in the heart of the marina district with loads of restaurants and activities within walking distance. It is a very short taxi ride from the airport and the MalecĂłn is just 10 minutes away. The pool is enormous and was never crowded. There is a sandy beach at the Shangri-la that provided breathtaking sunsets every evening. This property is very quiet. The only sounds were the many birds and the rolling surf.
Our host, Frank. does an exceptional job. Communication is clear and precise. He sent me a welcome letter that explained everything in detail and accessing the unit was hassle free. I did have a couple of questions for Frank and both were answered promptly.
This home has my highest recommendation and we will definitely be staying here again on a future vist.
The pictures donât do this property justice. The condo is beautiful and comfortable with an amazing view. The home is well stocked and has just about everything you need. The elevator that opens right into the condo is very handy and quite fun, our boys thought it was âthe coolest â. And the pool and grounds are the prettiest and most well manicured we have ever seen. The pool is HUGE and well laid out. We enjoyed it a lot more than the beach even. The location to the marina was perfect and right next door is a large Marriott with several restaurants and ice cream shop. It worked out great! We would highly recommend and definitely stay again.
The view from the balcony is fantastic ⊠I donât think Iâd ever tire of that view!! The pool area is very quiet and clean, and we didnât have any problems getting a lounge chair under a palapa (beach or pool). The condo itself is very spacious, beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need if you choose to cook there. Lots of restaurants within easy walking distance to the marina and the food/drinks at the poolside grill were tasty and very reasonably priced (only open until 5 though). Itâs about a15-20 minute Uber ride to Malecon where there are shops, restaurants and bars galore. The condo owners supply necessities like toilet paper, soaps (hand, dish, dishwasher, laundry, shampoo, body), pantry items such as spices, condiments, tinfoil, etc., and lots of towels ⊠Iâve been to VRBOs where you have to supply absolutely everything. We used the AC, but the bedrooms have ceiling fans. Living room TV has multiple viewing options and there is WiFi. Frank was exceptionally responsive to emails and so easy to work with. All the staff we encountered were friendly and we felt very safe there. My only issues were that the floors could have used a mopping before we got there, there is a significant space between the 2 blackout blinds in the bedrooms (so bring an eye mask if early morning light bothers you) and the 3rd bedroom isnât readily accessible to the rest of the condo (it wouldnât be great for young kids). That being said, I wouldnât hesitate to return to this condo and I would highly recommend this unit to friends and family.
We had a wonderful time at the Shangrila. Condo was well stocked with supplies, lots of towels, cleaning materials,etc. Never used AC as breeze was excellent. Would have liked the Netflix tv for streaming in the living room rather than bedroom. All appliances were working.
Shangri la is an amazing property with a huge pool, inexpensive food and drinks. Beachfront with amazing views. The elevator opens up directly into the condo. Each Tower has a concierge to take care of almost every need. Its right across from the marina with great restaurants shopping and golf. What more could you ask for.
Exclusive condo in a secure and great subdivision.
We had a great time on this condo, the property is clean and in great condition. We loved this place, the location was great it is within walking distance of the marina where you can find a lot of places to eat. The views of the ocean were beautiful. The amenities, swimming pool, gym, hot tubs and gardens were outstanding.
