ABOUT SIERRA DEL MAR
Puerto Vallarta’s most exclusive gated community on the South Shore
Sierra del Mar is Puerto Vallarta’s premier gated oceanfront community, set on the dramatic South Shore coastline directly facing the iconic Los Arcos rock formations. The community encompasses two distinct developments: the original Sierra del Mar (a collection of custom estate homes nestled into the jungle hillside) and Sierra del Mar Los Arcos (a newer, low-density residential community planned for just 58 residences — 9 estate homes and 49 luxury condos across 5 mid-rise buildings). Both share an emphasis on privacy, security, and an unmatched natural setting where the Sierra Madre mountains meet the Pacific Ocean.
Residents and guests enjoy access to the exclusive Sierra del Mar private beach club, complete with a dining area, bar, sun deck, pool, jacuzzi, and gym — a rare amenity on the South Shore. The community is gated with 24-hour security and controlled entry, offering a level of privacy that’s hard to find elsewhere in Puerto Vallarta. Located approximately 12 minutes south of downtown along the scenic coastal highway, Sierra del Mar sits near Playas Gemelas (Twin Beaches) and Mismaloya Bay, with the famous Los Arcos National Marine Park visible from virtually every villa. The architecture ranges from traditional hacienda-style estates designed by renowned architects to contemporary glass-and-stone villas with infinity pools cantilevered over the jungle canopy.
