Villas David Bed and Breakfast is centrally located in an authentic Mexican neighborhood within easy walking distance of all the finest attractions of Puerto Vallarta Mexico.  The old world hacienda style mansion is built around a central courtyard in the area called “gringo gulch”.  The house is on the hillside overlooking the beautiful Bay of Banderas and built in the open-air style to catch every mountain and bay breeze.  Our main entrance is on Calle Galeana #348, the balconies of the bedrooms are over Calle Miramar to the west and Calle Emilio Carranza to the east.

Villa David is the only gay bed and breakfast located in the historic colonial or “old town” section of Puerto Vallarta.  We are also the closest gay property to most of the gay bars.  A short walk through the colorful cobblestone streets takes you past the former homes of Liz Taylor, Richard Burton and John Huston.  It’s not unusual to see tour buses driving past Villa David filled with tourists looking at all the sights of gringo gulch and that incredible view.   From our hot tub deck and the two master rooms, we have views of the cathedral, downtown area, south side, hotel zone, Los Arcos, Nuevo Vallarta; in short the whole bay.  These are also great places for watching the incredible sunsets that Puerto Vallarta is so famous for.  Here each sunset is an event!

Villa David has a comfortable home-like atmosphere.  The house is built around a lush green courtyard centered with a beautiful brick and tile pool that was built around an existing old cut stone fountain.  The courtyard is planted with Birds of Paradise, orchids, bougainvillea and Night Blooming Jasmine and has a brick terrace that is a great place to sit and read, play games or just talk.  There are many common areas to socialize and plan the night’s activities with other guests.  The living room and dining room have only three walls.  They are open to the courtyard so you get the feel of living outside.

The living room has a television and VCR with a collection of tapes, we also have a small library there.

The dining room where breakfast is served in a style you deserve on antique china, linen napkins, fresh fruit, juice, rolls, pancakes, or french toast or scrambled eggs and home fries, coffee and tea.  This is a great place to talk with other guests and plan the activities of the evening.

Speaking of evening activities, dinner is usually high on the list of priorities.  Villa David is located within 6 blocks or less from all the following world class restaurants.  Le Bistro, River Cafe, Oscar’s, Trio, Bombo’s, Cafe des Artistes and Chef Roger just to name a very few.  For the “touristy group”, we are just as close to (yes) The Hard Rock Cafe, Planet Hollywood, Mickey’s NoName Cafe and Hooters!

The local market and Boardwalk shopping areas are within four blocks of the house as are many of the art galleries like Sergio Bustamante, Galeria Pacifico and Galeria Uno just to name a few.  The Malecon (boardwalk) area of Puerto Vallarta is only 3 blocks from the house.  The Malecon is where most of the Mexican nightlife is centered.  This gives you the opportunity to see the “real” Mexico, not just the places built solely for the tourists.  From the Malecon, the rest of Puerto Vallarta is within easy walking distance. This gives you the opportunity to experience the city on foot, seeing many things you would otherwise miss if in a taxi or bus. You can cross the bridge and within a ten minute walk, you can be on Olas Altas and the many little cafes and restaurants there. From there you are only a few minutes walk from the popular gay beach.

Villa David has ten bedrooms, all with private baths.  They are in varying styles.  Six have balconies and are built in the Mexican style.  Two of these rooms have huge round tubs with domes and cupolas, the other four have hand made tile murals on their shower walls of seahorses, mermaids and other forms of aquatic life.  Four of the bedrooms are just finished.  They are of a more modern nature if the Mexican style isn’t what you are looking for.   All rooms have ceiling fans.  Coupled with the mountain and ocean breezes, they provide lots of ventilation and breezes.

We have one room with two double beds and hand carved headboards of Primavera wood.  They are of horse heads and are almost works of art in their own right.  The other rooms have either queen or king sized beds.  Both master rooms have king sized beds.  Some rooms have an additional twin bed if there is a need for a third person in a room.  Of course all are subject to availability.   Quality sheets and towels are provided for your comfort.
