Eighth Floor Ocean View Residence With Rooftop Infinity Pool In Amapas, Puerto Vallarta

Residence 801 sits on the eighth floor of the South Tower at Mayamar, in the hills of Amapas above Puerto Vallarta’s Romantic Zone. Two bedrooms plus a flex room, three full bathrooms, 240 m2 — 2,584 square feet — and an ocean view from a height where you are well above the palms but still close enough to the town to feel part of it.

The layout

This is the 240-square-metre plan that repeats up the South Tower, the same footprint you will find on the penthouse level, at eighth-floor pricing. It is a generous two-bedroom: three full bathrooms means both bedrooms are en suite with a full guest bath left over, which is the detail that separates a residence you can host in from a condo you cannot. The flex room takes a desk, a media wall, or a third bed when family comes down for Christmas. Living, dining and kitchen run together and open onto the terrace through glass, and the kitchen is finished with stone countertops, a gas stovetop and a bar — gas being a small thing that matters enormously if you actually cook.

Eighth floor

Height is the whole argument in Amapas, and floor eight is the sweet spot in this building. High enough that the view is open water rather than rooftops, low enough that the terrace still feels connected to the jungle around it rather than floating above it. Every residence at Mayamar is oriented to the bay, and the sunsets here run the full width of Banderas Bay from November through March.

Amenities you will actually use

The rooftop carries an infinity pool with panoramic bay views, private cabanas, a pool bar, a jacuzzi, a sun roof and a lounge chair area. Below it there is a wellness suite with sauna, steam room and rain shower, and a fitness centre with natural light and jungle views. The building runs 24-hour reception and security, private elevator access, underground parking with private storage, and a tropical garden. Mayamar is fully pet friendly throughout, which is rarer in this market than it should be.

Why Amapas

Amapas is the hillside immediately above the Romantic Zone, and it is the rare Vallarta address that is quiet and walkable at the same time. Five minutes on foot down to the sand and Los Muertos Pier. Ten minutes to the restaurants, galleries and Saturday markets of Old Town. Twenty minutes by car to Puerto Vallarta International Airport, which runs direct service to more than thirty cities across the United States and Canada. Land in Amapas is finite and the hillside is close to built out, which is the structural reason values here have held the way they have.

The developer

Grupo Solcon is among the most active builders in Puerto Vallarta, with a delivered portfolio including Vrede, Artee 378, Trópico 1371, Serdán, Loft 77 and the Kalm residences, alongside Palmaré in 5 de Diciembre. When you buy presale you are buying the builder as much as the building, and Solcon’s record in this city is why we are comfortable representing this one.

The numbers

801 is offered in presale. The figure shown reflects the developer’s preferred deposit structure; plans with a smaller payment at signing are available at adjusted pricing, and we will send you the current schedule on request.

Foreign buyers hold coastal property in Mexico through a bank trust called a fideicomiso, which conveys full rights to occupy, lease, improve, will and resell the property. It is routine and it is secure, and we manage it with you start to finish, along with the notario, the closing and the tax questions that come with owning here.
