Steps to rent
- Decide your dates, group size and number of bedrooms.
- Choose the setting: beachfront, ocean view, golf side or a walk to the village.
- Ask Costa for the current collection that fits.
- Confirm staff, chef and extras in writing before you pay.
Why ask a local guide
Availability, staff and house rules change by home and by week. Costa knows the homes in person and confirms every detail directly with the property, so you get an honest answer on what fits.
Choosing the community
Kupuri is for space, beachfront and the grandest beach club. La Punta Estates is for large groups. Ranchos Estates and Las Palmas are for families in standalone villas. Porta Fortuna is for oceanfront at a livable size. TAU Residences is for large units with an infinity pool and a private beach club. Hacienda de Mita is for a walk to the village and proximity to the golf.
Beach clubs: ask which one comes with the villa
Punta Mita is really a collection of beach clubs, and which ones you can use depends on the community and the Club Punta Mita membership tier that comes with the home. Kupuri Beach Club is the grandest, a multi-level club with pools, dining and full service. The Residents' Beach Club is quieter and family-paced. Pacifico Beach Club sits by the golf and the point, and the Sufi Ocean Club anchors Porta Fortuna on the oceanfront.
A villa does not automatically unlock every club, so the single most useful question is which club your villa includes. That one detail shapes a whole week.
Chef, staff and the rest of the week
Most villas here can arrange a private chef for one dinner, a few nights or the whole stay, and many include housekeeping. Confirm which staff are included, their hours and whether groceries are stocked before you arrive. A concierge can also arrange golf, boat days, surf coaching, spa treatments and transfers from Puerto Vallarta airport.
When to go
The dry months from November to April offer the most reliable weather for swimming, snorkeling and boat days. Humpback whales are in Banderas Bay from roughly early December to late March, and last season ran from December 8 to March 23. Summer brings warmer water, around 28 degrees Celsius, along with rain and bigger swell, and September and October are the main risk months for storms.
Holiday weeks and the winter season are the busiest on the peninsula, so ask early about availability for your dates.
Who this is not for
If you want to book instantly with no conversation, a self-service site may be quicker. For a stay that runs itself, a local guide helps.
Tell Costa your dates, group size and must-haves in the chat, and we will send the current collection that fits.
