I cannot even describe how much fun we had and how beautiful your place is...The picture you have on your site cant begin to even describe that place in person. The villa is above and beyond what I could have possibly imagined that villa to be...honestly the pictures do it no justice once you see it in person. Elba cooked amazing and our group has said over and over we cant wait to go back and have spoken about when many of us could make it back. That was the best place I have ever stayed in my life! I have never been on vacation and not wanted to leave the area we were staying in and we didn’t want to even go shop, afraid to miss out on one second of being around that condo and everything it has to offer right there on the beach!

We got married right on the beach November 7, 2009 and I can not imagine it anywhere else. This was my first visit to PV and I will go back as fast as I possibly can. We had 11 people stay in the villa total and we had so much room! I felt famous living there for a week!! Many of us have said it was the best vacation we have ever had!

That place is indescribable! The pool of our own and a bigger one down the way and then a beach feet from you, you couldn’t ask for anything better. We had a blast and I have so many photos and memories to cherish! We usually go to Maui every year, and I never thought I could like anything as much and now I have another love!!!!!!!! We stayed 6 days and that needs to be longer for sure now that we know whats there!

Also Enrique is the has the best customer service and has been nothing but help since minute one. He is so kind and anything you need he figures it out and gets you the info you need, AMAZING! Thank you , I am so glad I booked with you, it could not have been better!

Thanks again Wayne,

Wayne, I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to write. Wanted to publicly thank you and your staff for making my 50th birthday in August 2006, the best vacation and birthday I have ever had. From the transportation to and from the airport; lunch waiting for us upon our arrival; beautiful flowers delivered; to assisting my daughter with dinner reservations at Vista Grill (my favorite) and the wonderful coconut birthday cake; to arranging for spa services at the villa; for keeping the house spotless; the incredible meals and margaritas by Elba, I thank you! My daughter and I talked about Villa Karaway so much that my husband wants to visit! Also, thank you to Enrique!

Dear Mr. Harding,

We can not thank you enough for generously allowing us to share your gorgeous home. You allowed us the opportunity of a life time and the fact that we could share this experience with our children made it all the more of a blessing. The beach was not only beautifully breathtaking but the fact that it was semi private ( at least that was how it seemed) made the vacation so much more relaxing. Gloria was so diligent about making sure the home was clean and fresh and Elba's cooking was extraordinary comparable to any gourmet restaurant. Thank you for making this trip possible for us. We really needed some pampering after a pretty tough year and Villa Karaway gave us just that. Thank you again.

IT was the best place we ever stayed. I would love to go again. Rachel (age 15)
I loved the people who helped us and took care of the grounds and pools. Corine (14)
Thank you for letting us stay at your place. It was really fun. I really really like the beach and the ocean- Alexander (6)
I loved to swim in the pool - Lauren (3)

Thank you again.
Sincerely,

The Lynch Family

It's been exactly a year and I still think about Villa Karaway, the view, the ocean and pool but especially Elba's cooking! I am always thinking about when we can go back.

We LOVED Villa Karaway!!!!! What a fantastic and private getaway! Everything necessary for a family dream vacation in sunny Puerto Vallarta! I would recommend Villa Karaway to ANY friends as a totally unique, beautiful, romantic, and relaxing villa! Adela's cooking was fabulous as usual (this was my third third year) with all the trimmings and glitter of a non-stop Mexican feast! The pools, ocean, accomodations, and fabulous scenic views are the best you could imagine! Thank you Karen and Wayne for creating a perfect family getaway in an exotic and fun filled City! BRAVO!!!!!

The Whale Watching was awesome!Last night the golden glow around a full moon over the ocean was just another beautiful piece of scenery we
endured! After two weeks of wonderful
cooking and care by Adela and Gloria we
realize it will be hard to leave this majestic place! We have to compliment
the owners of this beautiful property
as we can say without exception you have thought of everything to make your guests stay comfortable and happy.

Villa Karaway is by far the most luxurious, relaxing and beautiful home in which I have vacationed! It is so private, comfortable and restful!

From the moment we walked in and were greeted by Adela and Gloria, we had an absolutely magical stay. Sunsets took our breath away. We enjoyed watching ships go by in the evening...the beautiful view of Los Arcos... the infinity pool. Definitely loved sea kayaking! So many wonderful memories! Cannot wait to go back!

Adela's meals were so incredible that we never ventured out to a restaurant.
Why would we?? She was very gracious and accomodating and her food was just delicious. After a day on the water, arriving home to the aroma of her cooking seemed like a dream.

We wholeheartedly recommend the experience of Villa Karaway! You must see it to believe it!

Leave your cares and computer behind but take comfy shoes and camera if you are going to Villa Karaway. What a spectacular getaway. You will want to capture on film the sunrises and sunsets off the verandas, the flowers, the ocean, and the uniqueness of this lovely home. Adela's cooking and graciouness will make you feel at home. Thank you Wayne and Karen for making this place available for others to enjoy. Dennis and Marie Channer

Simply Outstanding! The best vacation my wife and I have ever taken. Beautiful property, amenities and excellent staff. After exploring the surrounding area it became clear the Villa Karaway was the best property in Puerto Vallarta!

Our stay at Villa Karaway was great --- from beginning to end --- and there's nothing I'd change.

Every meal Adela prepared was great and thinking back it seems like every meal was better than the one before -- and it's hard to imagine that being possible. From the "Mexican feast," to the shishkabob, to steaks, to her incredible shrimp wrapped in bacon, each meal was a delight.

The most enjoyable part of the trip for me was pure relaxation ---- sitting by the pool, on the deck or on the terrace just looking out to sea and listening to the waves break was the most relaxing time I've spent in years. We all read a lot, napped a lot, just soaked up the sun and enjoyed PV.

There were 4 couples in our group and we were there for a week in December. it was a great trip and we'll be returning again in the future.cp

Villa Karaway was possibly one of
the most enjoyable vacations that I
have ever been on... from the close
attention to detail to the unmatchable
comfort and beauty of the
surroundings, the memory of the
villa still keeps me going today. I
would highly suggest this location for
your next vacation!

I have had the good fortune to stay at Villa Karaway twice, and both my visits have been ones I shall always remember fondly! If you wish to experience luxury, ocean-side accomodations with a highly competent staff who makes you feel not only at home, but like a king, you MUST book a stay at Villa Karaway! Just a few minutes from the heart of old Puerto Vallarta, with fine dining and shopping, you couldn't ask for a better place to get away and relax.
I highly recommend Villa Karaway to everyone!
