Casa Karma
 

A poster on another thread saw my link to Casa Karma and asked for more information. So please pardon a quick Mexico (PV) recommendation here on the Caribbean board.

I haven't stayed there (beyond my 'budget' budget) but toured the property last fall. I was actually there because of a Zumba event being hosted on the cliff-side patio deck. Really sweet, welcoming lady owner.

It used to be a private home that has been enlarged with amazing spaces added to hold weddings, etc. in addition to the private rooms that make up the B&B.

It's right next to Lindo Mar, a long-standing hotel in that area (which is 5 mins. south of the Zona Romantica by taxi, or 15 mins. on a local bus).

I've heard they have a really good Bloody Mary bar -lol!

suerte, suze

that looks great

Yes I thought it looked (and felt) pretty fantastic. Even though I have not stayed there myself I would not hesitate to recommend it, after my visit, meeting the owner in person, hearing a bit of history about the place.

suze,

Thanks so much for this info! I'd seriously love to try it. What is the travel time from the west coast? Thanks!

Depends on the time of year and I'm starting in Seattle.

High season I can get non-stop flightd so just under 5 hours between SeaTac and PVR.

Low-season (May thru Oct) I have to change once (at SFO, LAX, Phoenix, Orange County) so total travel time more like 7 hours.

From the airport in PV you'd grab a taxi, the Hotel Zone is about 15 mins. from the airport, Old Town about 25 mins. and Casa Karma being a bit south of the city ~35 mins. ride and cost of 300peso (about $17 at today's exchange rate).
