WHAT DO I GET WHEN I LEASE THE EIGHTH-FLOOR OF THE MARCELA RESORT?
First and foremost, you get access to both of the 8th floor luxury penthouses—Penthouse del Sol and Penthouse del Mar.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM THE PENTHOUSES?
PENTHOUSE #1 :
This marvelous eighth-floor penthouse is perched high atop the Marcela Resort & Spa, pointed equally at our hillside garden with its cascading waterfalls and the curvature of the sea snug against the historic port city we call home.
Penthouse de Sol features one-of-a-kind furniture and indigenous art set in a colorful king bedroom with vibrant orange walls, a classy wooden headboard, and sleek grey bedding. This penthouse villa—with its breathtaking views of the sea, old town Puerto Vallarta, and Marcela’s meticulously designed and cared for terraced gardens and waterfall—is outfitted with warm Mexican rosewood beams and ceiling.
While fully air conditioned, fans spin overhead in every room, each adorned with magnificent blown-glass sconces, a beloved staple of Marcela’s vibrant color, impeccable class, and utmost quality. The handsome decor in this rooftop boutique villa provides a naturally inviting space that is both airy and intimate, with picturesque views in nearly every direction. This penthouse is well-suited for a getaway of 3 nights or 3 weeks, although you will likely never wish to leave!
Relax and watch the sunset (or a movie on the curved 60” HDTV) from the living room outfitted with a comfortable chaise lounge sofa, and an exquisitely upholstered armchair and accompanying nesting ottoman.
Brew your morning coffee and whip up a fresh cooked breakfast in the villa’s galley kitchen with marble countertops, 6-burner stove, and oven. You’ll also find a blender, tea kettle, dishwasher, microwave, and all of the pots, pans, stone, and flatware you will need to feel completely at ease and at home. The luxurious bathroom features a cozy sunken tiled tub and rain shower head, plenty of fluffy towels, and a tile sink and toilet.
When you open all of the penthouse’s accordion doors and windows, the Pacific Ocean breeze and warm sunshine greet you and, in that moment, you will fully appreciate Marcela’s mission to seamlessly blend the natural and built worlds as a healthy way of rejuvenating the body and reinvigorating the mind.
Finally, we come to the star of the show—the villa’s outdoor hot tub Jacuzzi offering sea, sunset, and garden views! You’ll be drawn into its tempting warm water and photogenic corner perch, high above the entire property every morning, noon, and night of your stay. As you dry off, read a book and relax further on the two spa lounge chairs.
PENTHOUSE #2:
Sitting high atop Marcela is this marvelous eighth-floor penthouse… it’s the cherry atop a magnificent feast!
Penthouse del Mar features one-of-a-kind furniture in a colorful king bedroom with bold pink walls, ornate golden headboard, and evocative dark purple bedding. This penthouse villa with sweeping sea views is trimmed with warm Mexican rosewood and has a heart of natural cantera stone. While fully air conditioned, a ceiling fan spins in every room of the villa, and each fan is adorned with vivid blown-glass sconces. The result is a naturally inviting space with stunning views of the sea from every single room. This penthouse is well-suited for a getaway of 3 nights or 3 weeks, although you will never want to leave!
Relax and watch the sunset (or a movie on the curved 60” HDTV) from the living room outfitted with a plush sofa bed and an exquisitely upholstered Frida Kahlo armchair and accompanying nesting ottoman. Brew your morning coffee and whip up oaxaca and bacon omelets in the penthouse villa’s expansive, open-air kitchen with marble countertops, 6-burner stove, and oven.
This boutique masterpiece has two distinct bathrooms—one inside the villa with a sunken tiled tub and rain shower, and the other outside in a separate space on the patio with a corner-tiled shower, sink, and toilet. When you open all of the penthouse’s meticulously designed accordion doors and windows, the sea breeze and sunshine greet you, and you’ll fully appreciate Marcela’s mission of seamlessly blending the natural and built worlds to rejuvenate the body and reinvigorate the mind.
Finally, we come to the star of the show in this blissful penthouse villa—the outdoor corner hot tub Jacuzzi offering spectacular sea and sunset views! You’ll be drawn to its tempting warm water and photogenic perch high above the entire property every morning, noon and night of your stay. As you dry off, read a book and relax further on the two spa lounge chairs and a pair of bright red Adirondacks, each looking out over the whole of the Zona Romántica and the Pacific Ocean.
BOTH PENTHOUSES offer a full-size washer and dryer and complimentary Wi-Fi.
All of our resort guests additionally get access to our five swimming pools, Jacuzzi at pool level, on-campus gourmet restaurant, room service, 5-star-resort-level beauty shop and spa, full fitness
