Vacation Rental Description
Casa de Las Prismas is situated in the quaint Mexican village of La
Cruz de Huanacaxtle.
Within easy walking distance of a serene beach, we've built our
dream home, along with two apartments (completed August 2006) and a
casita which is 3 years old. Each apartment is on the 2nd floor (no
elevator) and have
separate entrances and are fully equipped. We've decorated with
bright, vibrant colors using interesting local artwork. The front
apartment, 'Feliz' has a private terrace with lounges, umbrella,
table and chairs. The rear apartment, 'Alegre' has a separate
terrace with lounges, table and
chairs.
The casita, 'Pancho's Villa' is much the same as the apartments,
however, it is on the
ground floor and has it's own patio with a table, chairs and
umbrella. (separate from the main building, but very near the pool
and garden)
The garden of Casa de Las Prismas is strewn with exotic palms and
lovely plants. Feel like
spending some quiet time with a good book? We have a secluded spot
waiting just for you and it has it's own umbrella along with a small
table and chairs. How about lazing away the afternoon in a two
person hammock? That, too, is in shady corner of the garden. We
have access to a wonderful young lady that comes right to our house
to do manicures and/or pedicures. What a treat! (and her low
prices will knock your socks off!!)
At Casa de Las Prismas, we have a heated pool........hard to find
here, but oh, so necessary
during the winter months when the pool water is soooo cold that it
makes your teeth ache!!! The pool has a lovely little waterfall and
there's also a heated Jacuzzi, unique pool shower and a pool
bathroom. Casa de Las Prismas has a screened outdoor kitchen which
boasts a BBQ,
stove, fridge, television, and has seating room for 6. A
great place to have a potluck dinner or just to enjoy an outdoor meal.
We also have a slow cooker and hand mixer in the outdoor
kitchen which are to be used by all guests.
We offer weekly maid service and fresh towels twice per week, and
also have pool towels, however, we ask that you provide your own
beach towels. Although there is a water softening and purificaton
system throughout Casa de Las Prismas, we provide bottled water as
needed. We're within close walking distance of no less than seven
excellent restaurants,
including Frascati Ristorante which serves wonderful
Italian food at moderate prices!
There are also two restaurants which have British menus, (one of
which offers live music), at least two with International cuisine,
two Sushi bars and countless local Mexican cafes. You'll want to visit
the newly opened Yacht Club for a romantic evening or even just for a
terrific breakfast or lunch. Also, on
weekends, you might enjoy renowned 'street tacos' just a few blocks
away. In the evenings there is live music at Philo's which is also
only 3 blocks away. Many nights you'll meet people from all over
the world! The bus system in our adopted country is excellent. The
nearest bus stop is yet another short walk from Casa de Las Prismas
and you
can be in Puerta Vallarta wining, dining, or partying the night away
in approx. 40 minutes. There's taxi service both to and from the
city at a reasonable rate. A must is a visit to Bucerias which is a
5 minute bus ride away. And then, when you want to go to one of the
most beautiful beaches in Mexico, the bus will take you there in
under 15 minutes!
We have wireless service to accommodate those of you who wish to
bring along your own electronics as well as a laptop for the use of
all guests.
Although there isn't telephone service in the units, we do provide
free long distance calls to USA and Canada.
When you stay with us here at Casa de Las Prismas, we provide
airport pickup at no charge.
