Beautiful ocean views, luxe amenities and designer furnishings: as its name implies, Villa Perla really is a treasure. One of the exclusive properties in the Porta Fortuna community in Punta Mita, the three-bedroom villa is a private retreat, but gives you access to resort-worthy perks like restaurant room service and beach club memberships. Villa Perla boasts ocean views from every room except one—and that includes its outdoor living areas, like the terrace with lounge and dining areas, hammocks and an al-fresco kitchen with a barbecue and wet bar. Feel the warmth of the sun on the chaise longues, then cool off in the plunge pool. Take the provided six-passenger golf cart to the community’s beach club, yoga center or restaurant, or order room service right to your villa. Ask about premier golf memberships, which give guests access to nearby courses, beach clubs, tennis courts and a fitness center. Once the sun goes down, enjoy a selection from the music or movie libraries, or share snaps of the day via Wi-Fi. The property expertly pairs traditional elements of tropical style, like a thatched roof and vine-covered pergola, with more contemporary accents, like fold-away glass doors that allow for a seamless transition between indoors and out. The open-plan living area is minimalist but not cold, with an inviting sectional and colorful artwork in the sitting area as well as wicker lounge chairs that complement the wicker seating around the dining table. Cooks and diners alike will delight in the state-of-the-art appliances, imported Italian cabinets and breakfast bar in the fully equipped kitchen. Each of the three bedrooms at Villa Perla has an en-suite bathroom and two have ocean views. The master suite has a king bed and looks out to the water, and a second master bedroom also has a king bed but opens to a private patio with a waterfall. The third bedroom has two double beds and ocean views. Start your Punta Mita vacation with a flight to Licenciado Gustavo Diaz Ordaz International Airport, 27 miles from Porta Fortuna Perla. Once you’ve arrived at Villa Perla, you’re just a 1-minute walk from the closest restaurant, a 2-minute golf cart ride from the beach club and golf course and a 5-minute ride to more restaurants and shops. Be sure to leave time during your trip to explore the area, with stops in Sayulita Village, 12 miles away, and downtown Puerto Vallarta, just under 29 miles away. Copyright © 2015 Luxury Retreats.
