I contracted, through this Agency, to rent a Unit in the beautiful Towers of Shangri La of Puerto…read moreVallarta, Mexico. I paid in full for the Unit, months ahead of our month of occupancy (March of 2016) including a full Security Deposit. I have 6 airplane tickets fully paid for my family to come visit with my wife and me over various weeks of the month. The OWNER of the Unit, acting through this Agency, SOLD the Unit to another, days ago, and the Agency now advised me that the Unit is no longer available. We had a contract with a clear Cancellation Clause, If I cancelled now, I would lose all my payments and IF the Owner cancelled now, he would have to repay us what we already paid and another $4000. I have found a replacement unit and not surprisingly, had to pay significantly more than my original contracted amount. HOWEVER, the AGENCY and the OWNER now refuse to pay the cancellation amount but, "think it fair" that I accept my money back and a coupon for dinner at a local restaurant. This is outrageous and wrong. It shows the lack of integrity and honesty of the Agency and the Owner.

If you have spent anytime in Puerto Vallarta you know it is full of realtors. Mike Hinrichsen and…read morehis team at Boardwalk Realty PV stand out as one of the best. We started our search looking at homes from Bucerias to Zona Romantica not knowing where we wanted to be located. He showed us homes in person and via FaceTime and was very patient with us. We quickly realized that Mike had taken the time to understand our wants, needs, and budget. After many months of searching with Mike's help and knowledge of the areas he lead us to the perfect home. As we started negotiations with the owner this is when Mike truly stood out. He kept us fully informed of the process and what he and his team were doing for us. As first time buyers in Mexico, Mike was quick to answer any questions we had and was proactive with needed information along the way which helped to make the process as stress free as possible. With his guidance, perseverance, and efficiency we got a great price for the property and at a timeline we could work within. Mike Hinrichsen and Boardwalk Realty PV are an exceptional real estate team in PV. I would highly recommend you put your dream of a home in paradise into their capable, trustworthy hands.

I worked with Realtor Aimee Jewell and her team. From the moment I found Aimee I was thankful I had…read morefound a strong realtor with deep knowledge of the Puerto Vallarta and Bucerias area. Not only has Aimee been here for 20 years, her background as an Expat made me feel immediately safe and in good hands. After researching buying property in PV and Mexico in general , I had a lot of trepidation concerning the buying process due to other stories of people not fortunate enough to have a reputable company such as Boardwalk Reality to help them. Having bought and sold five homes in the United States over the years as well as working in business lending and real estate I was truly impressed with how easily Aimee navigated the complexity of a cross border purchase. The Notary that was chosen was of extremely high quality and high competence and the Escrow agent as well was flawless in their handling of my transaction. The process was well documented and since I was purchasing my home while being out of Mexico, Aimee worked as my proxy to ensure the home inspection was done and that the entire process was seamless for me. At closing of escrow there were no surprises and everything was exactly as presented during the offer process. In the weeks following the close , Aimee spent her personal time to help me convert utilities into my name and helped me follow up on residency assistance among other tasks that I would have had difficulty doing without her help. I highly recommend Boardwalk Realty and Aimee Jewell for making my dream a reality.

5 NIGHTS OF PERFECTION (ALMOST)…read more I just got back from a 5 night stay at the SoHo Residents and I'm still daydreaming about the views. I got a 1 bedroom apartment that could be converted into a 2 bedroom via murphy bed and sliding door wall. The unit was on the 9th floor and was equipped with ample closet space, a full kitchen, and a washer and dryer. The check-in process was a bit "clunky" compared to the US check-in processes, but after visiting PV a few times, I'm realizing this is pretty standard wherever you stay. You'll check-in on the ground floor with the agents where they go over the house rules and give you a wristband. Then you'll need to have your "host" (from whatever platform you booked) to come get you and handle the incidentals, mine was about $450. From there you get the grand tour! The rooftop pool and bar was the highlight and the reason I'll go back. The only downside (the reason for the 4 star review) to the whole experience is that SoHo is located on a very busy street and the street gets pretty noisy (no matter what floor you're on), but it's the price you pay to be walking distance to stores, shops, and the restaurants/bars. One thing to note - all guests need to check in and provide their ID at the front desk. They keep their ID until they leave the building. Overall, an amazing experience and can't wait to go back!!

This recently opened condo building is huge. The crown jewel is the spectacular pool billed as the…read morelargest rooftop pool in North America with sweeping views. There are sunning platforms and a fire pit in the pool. More chaise lounges are up a spiral staircase. The bar and restaurant along with most of the penthouse units were not finished yet. The new gym was open. Construction workers were constantly in the small elevators, and I'm surprised there is no large service elevator. Many of the elevators are semi-private opening to 2 units on each floor. You have to go down and switch elevators to go up to the pool. Airbnb units are decorated differently by individual owners. The layouts are basically the same and terraces are nice. We stayed in a 2 bedroom which is really 1 bedroom plus a studio-like area in the living room with another bed which can be closed off. Oddly the master bedrooms are in the rear with floor-to-ceiling windows and doors to the corridor. I'm guessing no one will keep their drapes open. Although further from the beach, it's in a near perfect spot convenient to the gay bars and restaurants, basically 1.5 blocks from The Corner Bar at Basilio Badillo. The only problem is trying to cross the busy sidewalk-less Mexico 200 "highway" opposite the Pemex which is dangerous at most times (there are hidden steps on one side of street).

Very very nice and interesting ceramic based artistic shop located in old town Puerto Vallarta…read more Pieces range from individual hand painted tiles, to multi-piece hand painted murals to vases, platters, dish ware, sinks .... etc. A very large and diverse merchandize line-up that offers something for almost everybody. Aside from the products on display, this shop will also make/paint products to order where I am waiting on a quote for a Hand painted Tuscan vineyard mural based on a picture I provided the artist. I cant wait to get this piece hung up in my Bar area as it will definitely be one of the focal points and topics of discussion that I will be appreciating over and over again in the coming years. Relative to the facility and staff, the facility is two stories where the lower level has most of the products they make on display and the upper level has their sink displays and the artists themselves hard at work painting the ceramic products. You should definitely not over look this area if you are in the store. Relative to staff they are super friendly and give you your space while shopping which I greatly appreciated. Overall this is a must stop if you are in old town as the quality and workmanship are something you will definitely appreciate. When you see the quality and match it up with the great price you will be hard pressed not to buy something. Five stars.....
