I went to Mexico to celebrate a dear friend’s 50th birthday with a gang of 20, but always when I travel, I have alternate motives. I travel to write. So I hoped to find writing time and inspiration at Villas Mandarinas, but I got so much more. The vibrant, orange-painted walls of Villas Mandarinas cling to Mismaloya’s cliffs, creating eye-pleasing angles against the ocean and sky, which are always the same color, sometimes sizzling blue, sometimes misty white. The infinity pool cascades, bathwater warm, over its curvaceous, blue tile edge, an invitation to just breathe, have another margarita, and wait for dinner. In long, languid mornings, listening to birds by the pool, traipsing about in the first light of day, it is easy to let go of responsibilities, worries, deadlines, and goals, letting them float on those white puffs of cloud into the endless sky. Birds abound because the gardens are so lush. Palms and bright orange honeysuckle, plumeria that seem to have bloomed just for us, loose river rocks guiding you along the concrete walkways, all within a soundscape of syncopated pounding ocean waves against the shiny brown rocks below. Oh, how I lounged! I stretched out on white cushions wherever I wanted them, draped over so many pillows, listening to the ocean, gazing at the tropical flowers that look like wax, the driftwood sculptures, the fresh-cut mums on every tabletop. And I wrote. I wrote like crazy, every day, in a dozen different, perfect, loungey spots all over the property. Surrounded by beauty and inspiration, I worked on my novels and caught up on my blog. I wrote poetry to my wife and to the sea. I travel to write, and I hope to write again at Villas Mandarinas - David G.
Villa Mandarinas
Mexico / Puerto Vallarta / Mismaloya
Villa Mandarinas is a spectacular, oceanfront, luxury villa with breathtaking views of the south shore, located just past Mismaloya Beach and approximately 9 miles from downtown Puerto Vallarta.
Overview
The villa is inside a walled estate and is a world unto itself, including a full staff, with and private chef preparing three meals a day. The climate is perfect for a focus on outdoor living at its best, offering everything from an al fresco kitchen complete with pizza oven, your own private pier and a cozy fire pit for star gazing after the sun sets. The property has brilliant design details featured in Architectural Digest and breathtaking views of the ocean and south shore. Located just beyond Mismaloya Beach and approximately 9 miles from downtown Puerto Vallarta.
The villa is designed with clean contemporary lines with an infusion of organic details juxtaposed with vivid tropical colors inspired by nature and the best of Mexico’s colorful heritage.
Enter the uppermost level to breathtaking ocean views including the iconic Los Arcos islands. The 15,000-square-foot villa is built into the hillside with a main house on one side and five bedrooms terraced down the other side, with a central open-air stairway dividing the two. The main house has two bedrooms and the main level with common entertaining, kitchen dining, living and media opening onto the heated, infinity pool and poolside Jacuzzi, terrace and outdoor dining with full outdoor kitchen, including pizza oven and wet bar.
One level below the pool is a game room with pool table, wet bar and lounging area all with the amazing ocean views and the eighth bedroom.
Take the steps down thru the gardens to the ocean level terrace with a manmade tidal pool and your own private pier. The tidal pool appears almost a part of the natural setting, made with the large granite stones of the coastline. Pier and tidal pool only accessible when the ocean is calm.
This private villa can be rented as a five-to-10 bedroom, with eight bedrooms in the main house and two bedrooms in the casita. Access to the second pool and entertainment area is for rentals of nine or more bedrooms only. It's as if there was a private boutique resort just for you and your guests.
