We have stayed in many wonderful locations around the world and this one for a family vacation was tops. All of our 12 family members want to come back. We were there over New Years and the weather was sunny and 80F every day. The facility was spacious, open and light with fantastic views over the bay. The snorkeling on the beach below us and the swimming in the infinity pool kept everyone busy during the day. The manager, Carlos, was the very best and he responded to all of our needs with a smile. He made the visit truly exceptional. His great team also cooked dinner for us on 3 nights with a great Mexican flair. The meals were each a feast!

We hosted our daughter's wedding on October 17th and it was like a dream. We watched our daughter get married on the beach and listened to our son play the guitar and sing for our 40 guests at the villa. The villa was absolutely beautiful and large enough to house our entire wedding party. Every room has a view of the sea and a private bathroom . (The rest of the guests stayed at hotels or houses near by.) There are many little areas to sit and sip a margarita and look out at the Sea of Cortez, including a beautiful pavilion where we had our rehearsal dinner. The following night the pavilion became a dance floor complete with a bar and a DJ. I could go on forever. This place is better than the pictures!

Our Villa Cielito vacation was a truly amazing vacation paradise that will be forever remembered! As soon as we walk into the villa, the views of the coastline took our breath away. The most spectacular feature of the villa is the outdoor living spaces. Off the infinity pool there are several areas for lounging including a fire pit, hammock and palapa. Off the kitchen there is another large patio area with large a large bbq, additional lounge seating and another palapa. Our family shared the villa with 4 other families and never did we feel like we were lacking space or bumping into each other. Rob, the manager, was extremely helpful in answering all our questions regarding the amenities of the villa. Transportation was arranged for our entire party to be picked up at the airport. No hassles at the airport. We were whisked away and a short drive later, we entered the private gated community of Chileno Bay. Since no one wanted to deal with cooking on the first night of our stay, we arranged through Rob to have the staff cook us an authentic Mexican dinner. What an amazing meal! Several people in our party have dietary restrictions including a couple of vegetarians. We were served a truly amazing feast that satisfied the pickiest of eaters. We rented the villa for an entire week and everyday we would wake up to a new adventure. There was crystal clear snorkeling within steps of the house. The kids were amazed at all the “Finding Nemo� fish they could identify. Also there was body surfing for the older boys right next to the house. We arranged for kayaks to be at the house so the kids could explore the coastline. Another great amenity at Villa Cielito is the dedicated concierge, Jorge. Jorge booked taxis to come to the villa to take us shopping and into downtown. Jorge recommended several amazing restaurants off the beaten path. He also arranged for the fishing boat, Yahoo, to take the dads and kids out on an excursion. Who knew that the kids would come back with a 200 lb marlin! Jorge also arranged for the moms to get some pampering by having a masseuse give massages under the palapa! Our stay at Villa Cielito was a truly memorable vacation that our whole family will remember forever. The house and grounds were beautiful. The staff was extremely friendly and efficient. There so many activities within walking distance that we really never needed to leave the house. Villa Cielito is the answer to your next vacation!
