History
The Villa Group, a private developer founded in 1984, announced on 21 October 2008 that construction at Villa La Estancia Nuevo Vallarta was finished and every suite was open. Corporate director Carlos Aquino said the first phase had been taking guests for almost a year. The opening count was 245 suites, from about 1,200 square feet to 3,350, with full kitchens in the larger ones and wrought-iron gates on hacienda-style entries. Tatewari Spa was described then as a 17,000-square-foot facility. Travel Weekly lists a 2007 build year, which fits that first phase.
The setting
Paseo de los Cocoteros 750, Flamingos, on the northern edge of Nuevo Vallarta, facing Flamingos beach and Bahía de Banderas. This is Nuevo Vallarta, not the Puerto Vallarta hotel zone.
