Villa Luna Creciente • Puerto Vallarta

At Villa Luna Creciente, we were so fortunate to be in such good and trusted care as Carla, Denira, Miguel, Gilda and Mardia! Denira’s cooking was so flavorful and exceptional. She was gracious and encouraged us to learn from her. Miguel was so hardworking and pleasant. We were so lucky to have his assistance and non-stop service. Gilda, too, was amazing and so pleasant. The rooms were always immaculate and the common areas were equally maintained.  Of course, when we return to PV, we hope that these wonderful people will be part of the wonderful team that welcomes us.

Absolutely brilliant. Highly recommend Villa Luna Creciente. Everyone we worked with was pleasant and accommodating. Can't say enough about the whole experience.

We stayed at this house for MLK weekend and it was fantastic! The house is beautiful, each bedroom has it's own appeal and all are luxurious. The heated pool is great, panoramic views of the ocean and rocks. The waves crashing on the rocks just under the house was so relaxing and soothing. The staff was so sweet and accommodating to my picky palate. The location is a 15 minute walk to the beach and a quick car ride to town for shopping or dining. We went with a large group so not sure I'll need a house of this size again but if I do, I won't hesitate to rebook Villa Luna Creciente. Everything was very clean and neat, the housekeeper did some laundry for us and the food was great. It's nice that the kitchen in this house is a tucked away so it really feels like the staff isn't there other than at meal times. 5 stars! loved it!

Villa Luna went way above our expectations. There is not a bad view from any room and the open living room space was perfect for our large. We were there mid-January and it was nice to have a heated pool (kept around 80 degrees). We spent many morning and evenings enjoying cocktails, watching whales, and enjoying breathtaking sunsets in and around the pool. The cherry on top is the amazing staff. Extremely professional, kind, and accommodating. They made us several meals that were just perfect. I highly recommend this Villa for anyone looking to have an unforgettable experience. Cheers.

Stayed at Luna Creciente in September for my husbands birthday. I could not recommend this agency or villa more. They helped me find a villa to accommodate all of us. The concierge Carla was amazing all throughout our stay. She helped us find transportation - who we kept the entire trip as he was amazing. She helped us communicate with our chef. The chef and staff were amazing. The food we had at our villa was delicious and better than some of the food we had at the restaurants. Hands down would want to go back or work with the team again.

Absolutely perfect and stunning. Will definitely be telling my friends.

I recently visited PVR for my birthday. I planned 8 months in advance. I booked with Laura. She was responsive and helpful. Villa Luna creciente was breathtaking and amazing. I had a party of 9 and we were very comfortable. It was bery hot in August, but the AC worked perfectly. The staff was very attentive. D'Nora, the chef, exceeded every expectation I could have had. Every meal was prepared ontime and good. She did not miss. The housekeepers kept everything tidy for us. Lastly, Alejandro my concierge was helpful every step of the way with any crazy or last minute planning I needed. I thank them all for such an amazing experience and I look forward to working with them in the future

Fabulous place to stay in PV!

We recently stayed at Villa Luna Creciente with our family. We could not have asked for a better experience. The booking process with Larissa (director of operations) and Carla (concierge) with Agave Villas could not have been easier. When we arrived at the Villa, we were greeted by Carla, and the house staff Dinora- Head Cook, Fany- Assistant Cook, Hilda- Housekeeper and Miguel-Maintenance Manager. They had Margaritas, fresh salsa, guacamole, and tortilla chips waiting for us. Every moment was special, from pre-breakfast coffee through drink service into the evening.

The food was excellent. Carla provided us with several pages of sample menus prior to our arrival. Both Dinora and Fany did an outstanding job catering to every whim with breakfast and multi-course dinners every night we dined at the Villa. Definitely an unforgettable experience.

The rooms are all unique and spacious, many with balconies or terraces and great views of the ocean and Los Arcos rocks.

The grounds are manicured and the heated infinity pool was sparkling daily by Migel. Hilda, quickly cleaned each room daily and asked if we needed laundry done, which was a lovely perk.

The Villa location is an easily walk to a lovely beach with many water sports. Taxi’s and Uber are readily available and inexpensive.

Lots of memories made on this epic vacation!

Doreen R. July 2022 July, 2022

Professional employees, very respectful and courteous. Very nice views of the ocean from bedrooms.Because rooms are open to the outside for the nice ocean breeze and view, I will recommend spraying rooms and perimeters more often. Other than that my stay at luna creciente is an excellent place to stay. Overall, I will definitely recommend staying there for a vacation.

Carl O. June 2022 June, 2022

The villa is beyond your imagination. Amazing place. The staff was incredible. The food was out of this world. There is a fantastic beach about 10 min away, it's a easy walk down hill. You can take a cab back if you want. The rooms are gorgeous and the view is spectacular. The town is about a 20 min drive. Wonderful place.

Amy L. February 2022 February, 2022

Luna Creciente was the perfect place for our family vacation. The villa was spacious and easily accommodated our group of 11 adults and 2 children. The staff at the house did an excellent job.

Carrie B. February 2022 February, 2022

We just had the best family vacation ever. Every single person we dealt with was so professional and courteous. The house was clean the whole time…and the meals were such a treat. I highly recommend a vacation with a cook and a cleaning lady. All of our grown children said it was their best vacation ever. Carla, the concierge, helped arrange all of our transportation to and from the airport and she helped us set up a day outing on a boat. I highly recommend the Chili Rellenos!! Mucho Gracias

Susie C. January 2022 January, 2022

We had an awesome time. The villa was beautiful with magnificent ocean views. The villa staff was also awesome. The concierge team did a great job to make sure all of our requests were granted.

Will L. June 2021 June, 2021

It was "one in a life" kind of experience! Beautiful decoration, expectacular views, but more important the great staff service.  All staff members are great. there are not enough words to describe the "comfortable" feeling that the crew bring to your time off.  Many thanks!  Totally recommended to reconnect with small groups in a peaceful environment.

Jorge M. October 2020 October, 2020

Villa Luna Creciente is absolutely stunning! The ocean views are endless and being able to hear the waves crash against the rocks anywhere from the house makes it truly magical. Every room in the house is spotless clean, the linens and beds are comfortable. The house staff brought this rental to the next level and aloud our party to completely relax and not lift a finger! We only had 5 nights at the Villa and we booked a 4 person Massage (massage was okay), Dune Buggy tour (we tasted some nice tequila during the tour), and Bikes&Bites tour a must do this was by far our favorite tour and will do it again when we return!  My only regret is not being able to stay longer! The house is incredible and even better in person!

Trisha J. February 2020 February, 2020

Do not pass up the chance to stay at Luna Villa Creciente. While the home is gorgeous - with comfortable beds, a sparkling pool, and tons of space roam - it's truly the kind staff that make this place amazing. Dinora and her team are incredible, and so, so lovely. They make sure you are taken care of at every moment, and the food and drinks they prepare for you are DELICIOUS. They make it so easy to relax and feel taken care of. My team and I can't thank them enough for our special work retreat in their care.

Maren P. January 2020 January, 2020

I booked to stay at Villa Luna Creciente and it was the most perfect place to host my Spiritual Healing Retreat. From the moment you walk in to the beautiful decor and views, to the freshly made guacamole and salsa, freshly squeezed margaritas, and amazing staff this villa had it all. It is absolutely spotless, luxurious, and exactly what we all needed while completing our deep healing work. Maria was our concierge and she helped me plan our stay and organize our adventures. It was like having a personal assistant helping me all the way in Mexico as I was organizing the itinerary. All of the ladies said it was the best trip they had ever been on and the house acceded our expectations. Dinora, Hilda, Fanny, and Miguel were all so wonderful. They were like a little family tending to our every desires. We will definitely be back.

Laura K. May 2019 June, 2019

This property was even more beautiful than the pictures on the site! The pictures can not show all of the decorative details in every space. The openness of all of the rooms to the ocean was magnificent. The staff was incredible... friendly, attentive... made us feel so welcome and took care of everything we needed. The cuisine was perfect.... we were completely pampered Cannot wait to book again!

Aileen V. May 2019 May, 2019

This is the second year our family has stayed at Villa Luna Creciente. It just keeps getting better. The Villa is amazing and beautiful and the perfect setting. We love the staff: Dinorah, Fany, Hilda, Miguel, Maria and Larissa, and they have become our family. It is the perfect combination.... Villa and Staff. Our family is already planning on our return next year.

Dominic C. March 2019 May, 2019

Me and 11 of my friends had a ton of fun at this listing. The staff were kind and magical. We'd be eating breakfast, then walk up to our rooms and notice that the bed was made, the clothes were in the laundry. Highly recommend this place.

Ortal Y. December 2018 January, 2019

Villa Luna Creciente was perfect for our family of 5, although much more house than we needed. That was one of the big decisions we had to make upon arrival, which of the 6 rooms to choose since we only needed 3! No bad choices with only one of the rooms not having a beautiful water view.  The staff could not have been nicer.  Dinora was the best chef we have had in all of our visits - perfect blend of delicious Mexican food and reasonable portion sizes (we always have a tendency to overeat). Her guacamole and salsa is addictive so be sure to ask her to keep both in the refrigerator for you to snack on. We had her grill lobsters and shrimp for us one night - perfect. Fanny was her helper and kept our glasses full. Hilda the maid was very attentive to whatever you needed, and she was so sweet in wanting to wash any clothes you had. The walk to the very charming Mismaloya beach is only 10 minutes further south and a very easy one. No need to take a bus, cab, etc. At Mismaloya, they will set up lounge chairs for your group right on the beach and then bring you food and drinks until you say "no mas." The food is fresh and delicious and amazingly reasonable (much more so than in town on the beach). All this to say, we had a wonderful time. While we have enjoyed trying different houses over the years, it was apparent everyone felt that being directly on the water listening to the waves and looking at Los Arcos could not be beat. You will not be disappointed at Villa Luna Creciente.

Doug D. November 2018 December, 2018

Everything from the home, to the views, service staff and concierge were awesome. We knew we had made the right choice once we started receiving emails way in advance from Carla, the concierge for the property. She could not have been any better!

Carla was waiting outside the property as we pulled up for the first time and gave us a warm welcome. We were received with fresh guacamole, drinks and a gift (bottle of Mezcal). She then proceeded to give us a tour of the magnificent property.

The views are absolutely breathtaking and alone worth the price of the stay. The staff of 4 during our stay was also very friendly and professional. Dinora the head cook and Silvia her assistant made consistently delicious food. Hilda and David kept the house clean the entire stay.

We surprised my wife and mother with Mariachi's the first night. Carla was able to book 10 Mariachis on short notice, which sounded great and cheaper than quotes I had received myself.

The only negative, if you can even call it that is that there are a lot of bugs (beetles in particular) that show up at night so you can't really hang outside by the pool or leave the windows open once the sun completely sets. That said, the beetle issues only would start around 9:30 at night. A small price to pay to be in paradise! Secondly, the home does get pretty hot. The AC has to be manually turned during the evenings and it takes about 1 hour to really cool off the area. A bit different than what some may be used to in the States...but really not a big deal at all.

If you are thinking about booking this property, DO IT! I can assure you won't regret it. We have vacationed in quite a few destinations and homes and this experience has to be at the top of our list. Thank you for sharing your amazing home and thanks to the great staff! We may just need to come back next summer.

David M. June 2018 August, 2018

We took an 8 person family trip and everyone loved it. The food was great. The house was kept very clean. The pool and views are fantastic. The house is about 30-45 minutes from the airport but we bought a margaritas at the airport bar and the transportation they set up for us was great. We arrived to fresh guacamole and salsa and margaritas. Everyone loved their bedroom and the views are phenomenal. The house is right in front of Los Arcos (2 huge rock formations in the water) for people familiar with the area. The house is not brand new by any means but it’s well maintained and in my opinion definitely worth the money. We went to spend time together and decompress and we did both. Twice we took taxis to the beach to rent jet skis and we had one dinner at La Cliff but the rest of our time was spent at the house.  It was a great trip, largely because of the friendly and talented staff and I highly recommend it.

David N. July 2018 July, 2018

This was my first experience with renting a villa, not to mention in a different country.  The villa was fantastic.  It was just as described.  Everyone was friendly and the place was very clean.  Thanks to Dinora-our cook, Hilda-our maid, Miguel- our houseman, and Carla-villa manager for making our stay so enjoyable.  We lacked nothing!

Karita B. June 2018 June, 2018

Too pretty to be true! Thank you to all of you for the beautiful home, the wonderful food and all of your kindnesses. We stayed for the week with six of our children (ages 23-32)and loved every minute. The pool, the outdoor dining, the bedrooms with their incredible views and breezes--I'm still not sure it was real. The hardest part of the trip was picking which delicious menu options we wanted for the next day! Love and thanks to all--

A recommendation for future guests--don't miss visiting Chico's Paradise only 10 minutes up the road. A glorious day playing in a beautiful river! And the zoo--even closer! Amazing personal encounters with exotic animals. Don't forget the hiking and boating to Las Animas and stopping by Los Arcos on the way home to see all the beautiful fish. The parasailing from Las Animas beach and listening to the strolling mariachis while eating at the sand-side restaurant should not be missed as well. Enjoy it all!!

Terese L. May 2018 May, 2018

Unimaginably amazing family vacation... Had 12 with us and were more than comfortable. The town of Mismaloya (find Javier) was a perfect walk and awesome for getting to anywhere by boat. Wouldn't change a thing.

Chris T. November 2017 November, 2017

Villa Luna Creciente is incredibly beautiful, and way bigger than you would expect from the pictures. Even the garage was nice! Every room was special and we loved the Moroccan decor. The pool was especially amazing - I could spend all day enjoying the view and leisurely floating around.  At night you could hear the waves crashing into the rocks at the base of the house and it was soothing to sleep to. Dinora, our cook, made amazing meals for us that were light and delicious and accommodated our special requests.  The staff as a whole were like family to us.  Normally I'm not comfortable having a staff but ours at the villa made us feel welcomed and at home in the villa.  The villa also has a night security guard which made us feel safe and comfortable. The area is perfect - not too far of a drive from town but still secluded enough to be quiet and private.  I loved everything and I have been going through withdrawal since leaving!

Elizabeth F. October 2017 November, 2017

I just wanted to personally let you know how wonderful of a job these two phenomenal ladies did!! They were very personable & went above & beyond to see to it that our families were well taken care of. They are a tremendous asset to your company & have been an absolute treasure & joy to interact with this week!! The entire housing staff were excellent but I wanted to specifically highlight these two!! They made our stay so much better than what we had expected.

Larry November 2016 December, 2016

What an AWESOME place, just beautiful right on the ocean. Everyday was "Another day in Paradise!" The scenery and sunsets went unbelievable. We were a group of 8, the home was amazing and the cooks and cleaning people were awesome! Took a tour on a boat and saw a group of dolphins swimming and all kinds of beautiful fish and went to a beautiful water fall. So much to see, shopping was great too. I recommend this place highly. Can't wait to return......

Rosa 2015 August, 2016

We have been going to Mexico for the last ten years twice a year. We always stayed at a all-inclusive hotel with 4-5 star rate. This was our first time renting a villa. It was the most relaxing vacation I have ever had. Didn't know what I was missing. So nice just to come out to the patio with a cup of coffee and enjoy the ocean view. Usually someone in our party is running to the pool to save us sits, while someone else is trying to get us a table for breakfast. We had the cook service, no other word to describe it fantastic. It was fresh and excellent, we planned ahead what we wanted for our lunch and dinner. The staff were professional and kind. I guess I can't say enough, we enjoyed ourselves so much, we are returning in April.

Ana M. 2016 August, 2016

This was our 3rd trip back to Puerto Vallarta within a year! During our past two visits we stayed at a Conde Nast luxury resort, Garza Blanca and another beautiful villa but Villa Luna Creciente might just be our new favorite! The home is impeccable, definitely designed with luxury in mind. The staff is so very kind and accommodating. They arranged all of our transportation and stocked food and drinks before we had a chance to run out. Every meal was beyond delicious, they were so very generous with the seafood and flavor was just right. The entire company enjoyed the trip and we all keep thinking about the next time, cannot wait to be back!

Betty 2016 August, 2016

Villa Luna Creciente is a beautiful property that really must be seen to be appreciated in its fullest (although the pictures do a decent job). From the moment you walk in and see the waves crashing against the ocean, you know this will be a special trip. Gorgeous views from the bedrooms, pool, and living area! The villa itself is beautiful designed with many hand-picked pieces of furniture that compliment the style very well. The staff are delightful and did a fantastic job with some of the best in-villa food I have had! You may never want to leave, but if you do it is only a 10 minute walk down to Mismaloya beach or a short cab ride into Old Town. Would stay again in a second :)
