Mexican tradition meets the golden age of Hollywood in this glamorous gem of a villa with a soaring palapa roof and beautiful history-filled features.

Perched right on the beachfront, Villa Verde on the Beach floats just above the white sand with a stairway leading you down to the water's edge. Behind the villa, the verdant, tropical hillside - which gives the home its name - stretches up, surrounding you in a tropical oasis. However, the vibrant downtown of Conchas Chinas is just a few minutes walk and the centre of Puerto Vallarta is only a 20-minute drive. The airport is 30 minutes away and the renowned Los Muertos Beach is a delightful 15-minute stroll from your door.

Beautiful brickwork, magnificent stone floors and grand windows are monuments to the Hollywood era’s influence and ensure every room is soaked in sunshine and a rich glow that is the essence of Mexican splendour. The towering palapa, which forms the main room of the villa, stretches 70ft high and offers 50ft of width to create a gloriously open and yet deliciously warm space. This glorious room boasts deep soft seating, pieces of folk art and a beautiful dining table adorned in colourful, traditional tiles. The kitchen is crafted in traditional hacienda style with graceful brick arches and exquisite handcrafted tiling, although, with the professional cook on hand, you might not need to use it much!

The five king suites are all lavish havens of warmth and peace with smooth stone flooring, lovely wooden furnishings and artwork. The master boasts a fabulously sumptuous seating area and an elegant, ivory-hued tiled floor. The opulent bathrooms are all soaked in old-world charm with dark wood fittings, Mexican pavers and splendid stonework.

A hidden miniature oasis, hugged by the walls of the villa, offers a serene, greenery-shaded spot with lavishly soft loungers and an outdoor living room. At the front, a glorious travertine deck opens up its arms to the sunshine with a BBQ, lovely shaded dining area and sparkling pool. Here, with nature, history and the ocean all at your feet, you can sit back and breathe in the magnificence of the glamour to be found both in this beautiful villa and the breathtaking views to the horizon.
