Gorgeous view
La Jolla is a small condo complex sitting up above beach level. There are stairs that lead to the small, quaint beach where you can have food, massages, rent kayaks/paddle boards, or hire out a boat excursion. We love it here. The one restaurant on property is excellent but isn't open year round. You might have to navigate a couple flights of stairs depending on condo but they were working on extending the elevator when we were there last.

Great view of Mismaloya beach from the balcony
Condo has a great location with a scenic view from the balcony. Well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Great on-site restaurant, or you can walk to various good restaurants in town in about 10-15 minutes. Vibe is very low key and quiet and relaxing. Pool was great. Hot tub was nice and hot! A very enjoyable stay here.

Exceptional! Amazing views! Fully equipped, beautiful!
Probably the nicest condo on the property. The owners have done a beautiful job decorating. Only problem we encountered was the elevator for that building has not yet been installed.it wasn’t easy carrying my wheelchair and luggage the additional two floors. Mismaloya grill is fantastic! You don’t even need to leave the property.

Wonderful property
I don’t normally write reviews. The Mismaloya Bay is probably only 10 miles from downtown Puerto Vallarta but the traffic at peak hours/ peak tourist times ( we were there over Christmas) created a slow trip. Perhaps 40 min or longer in our rental car. The parking is easy at the condo. Public transportation of a variety of types is readily available. Parking downtown can be more difficult depending on location. The bay itself is stunning. The facilities are excellent, private ownership for these condos with many not utilized when the owners are gone. Despite a review indicating difficult beach access that is not true, for my mobility level at least. A stairway and gate lead to the beach which is maybe 50 yards away. Several small restaurants deeper into the bay community. The condo itself is top notch. The balcony and views are awesome. Quiet for the most part with occasional music from the all inclusive resort a small distance away. Some road traffic rarely heard, mostly just hear the waves on the beach rocks below the window about 60 feet. The sandy beach is over to the left about 50 yards as stated. One restaurant on facility. Excellent pool with plenty of seating. Not many people at the pool with rare children at our stay. Great jacuzzi below the room as well as at the pool. Frankly, I would buy a place there, or at least consider it. The check in after hours was a little awkward. I speak Spanish so it was OK, but during the day would have been better. Amy, our liason for the location was great via e mail but unfortunately back in the states for our trip from Texas’s. Some broken English but most speak Spanish. Doubt much of a problem for English speakers only.

Lovely view....but limited beach access
As others have noted, the view of the sparkling bay and crashing waves below are magical. Overall we enjoyed our stay, however, as committed ‘beach walkers,’ we were disappointed that the beach access is via a very slippery rock outcropping or along a busy road. Since we couldn’t walk on the beach, we ended up going to the town daily, which offers its own charms. However, we did feel a bit ‘captive’ in the unit. The remodeled unit is quite attractive, however, they seemed to sacrifice functionality for aesthetics. Not one chair is comfortable. And the listing says it ‘sleeps 4’ which is wrong. The sofas do not accommodate guests or children. (We didn’t have either, but be forwarned.) Minor issues include an erratic coffee maker and toilet that needs repair. The bedroom does have muffled street noise (and slight vibrations); we solved this by keeping the bedroom windows closed all the time and letting the sound of the crashing surf drown it out. Beautiful view. Lovely weather. Wonderful condo staff and security. All in all this was a wonderful trip.

Exceeded our Expecations
La Jolla de Mismaloya is a very well cared for condominium complex. The views are spectacular with an abundance of sea life and bird life visible right from the balcony of the condo. The coastline and sunsets are exquisite. Watching the local pangas and fisherman come and go is quite entertaining. We stayed in this unit for 2 weeks and another unit for 1 week and we would recommend both of them. The staff is superb and will help you with everything - from getting your luggage and groceries to the condo to helping with directions. They are all very friendly and the pride they take in making your stay enjoyable and keeping the building in tip-top shape is abundantly clear everywhere. The pool and surrounding area is a real treat especially for those who like swimming laps. The lounge chairs and umbrellas are a big plus making sun or shade readily available. And there are also shaded palapas with great chairs. The bar & restaurant will serve you at the pool. This unit was recently refreshed with new paint, furnishings and art work making it a very comfortable place to stay. For the most part, the kitchen is well stocked with the things you need for cooking. I provided some feedback to Amy of things that would be helpful to have for future guests. So I expect any shortcomings will not be there in the future. And BTW, Amy was super easy to communicate with about the unit and helpful while we were there! A couple of other big pluses is that the condo water is filtered with bottled water also available if you prefer at the front desk. There's a really nice restaurant within the condo complex, there are laundry facilities available for use for free, taxis are readily available, there's a couple of restaurants within walking distance and the local bus stop which goes into old town PV is directly across the street from the hotel. We found it very easy to get groceries and other supplies during our stay. The reason we gave it 4 stars overall is that there is considerable road noise, which really didn't bother us in this unit as the back of the condo is below street level, the bay has a small beach not great for walking on and there is an all-inclusive hotel that is rather loud when they host weddings. However, none of these things were big enough issues for us to not want to come back! Our 3 weeks in the complex flew by so you know we enjoyed ourselves. We DO plan on returning in the future because the pluses far out weigh the minuses!!!

Paradise found
Our rental was a wonderfully appointed and recently remodeled condo. We stayed nine days for our Misamaloya vacation. Everything we needed from extra beach towels to well stocked kitchen utensils was provided. The AC when used at nighttime for sleeping was very comfortable as was the ambient temperature during the daytime if we stayed in. The security is top notch. There was always a security guard watching out for the owners or renters. Special kudos to "Rosa" for assisting my wife with her photography and security issues on numerous occasions. My apology for dropping and breaking a wine glass. If you are looking for a "safe", very well appointed condo complete with satelite TV I highly recommend you check out this condominium rental.

Thanks Amy, unit looked great. How best to see the schedule of rentals? We do plan some upgrades. Judy would like to have her fingerprints on it to make her feel more like she is part of it. We would like to plan some work in May, is it open during that period? April--May-June? Have had some issues with title/working with Cynthia! Nice lady. Will discuss with you. Thanks again for all the assist. dennis

Beautiful place to stay and be as active or inactive as you want.
Condo was spacious, clean and nicely decorated with a fantastic view. Staff were friendly and helpful. Misamaloya is a wonderful fishing village, with lots of activities - swiming, fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkeling and hiking. Mismaloya Grill located on the property had delicious fresh food for lunch and dinner. Can't wait to go back!

A Most Excellent View
We were delighted with our most restful stay in Mismaloya about 40 minutes south of Puerto Vallarta. Our off-season visit was quieter than usual with some amenities closed for the holiday and season. However, great grocery stores like Sorianas made meal preparation in the well equipped condo enjoyable. We learned to take the local bus back and forth to the city...easy. The Zoo offered an afternoon of fun and exercise as we walked back and forth. We also took a day trip with Vallarta Ventures on the catamaran to snorkel and see the coastal sights. The beach was small and in Mismaloya we felt a bit isolated at times. But we will never forget the views and sunsets.
