Quinta Maria Cortez has to be the most atmospheric place to stay in Puerto Vallarta. The seven spacious and
romantic suites, all different sizes, are furnished with antiques and ecclectic decor. Try to reserve in advance.
- The Lonely Planet
An eclectic, sophisticated, and imaginative B & B on the beach, this is Puerto Vallarta's most original place to
stay - and one of Mexico's most unique inns. Seven large suites, uniquely decorated in antiques, whimsical
curios, and original art, all feature a private bathroom, and most include kitchenette and balcony. Sunny
terraces, a small pool, and a central gathering area with fireplace and palapa-topped dinning area (where
breakfast is served Monday to Saturday 9am to 10am) occupy different levels of this seven-story house.
Located on a beautiful cove on Conchas Chinas beach, the rocks just offshore form tranquil tide pools, perfect
for wading and snuggling. A terrace fronting the beach supports Roman columns draped in ivy and
accommodates chairs for taking in the sunset.

Mexico...long the domain of retirees
and spring breakers-has gotten a plus new life, thanks to a dazzling crop
of high end resorts set to give St. Barts a run for its money.
...Quinta Maria Cortez. A low-key, reasonably priced bed-and-breakfast villa on the beach,
which has seven large well-appointed suites...
- New York Magazine
Quinta Maria Cortez is one of the most unusually places to stay. It is right on the beautiful Conchas Chinas
beach. Walk by, it almost looks like something from ancient Greece. Inside it
seems like a combination of an old castle, museum and a romantic Villa.
