It’s where the ideas took root and the adventure began… Verana is the place that started it all, and launched what would ultimately become BoutiqueHomes.
One of several dwellings immersed within the jungle, this property takes you well off the beaten track in a completely immersive experience, and says everything you need to know about our interpretation of modern living and a Chic Nomad’s sense of adventure and style.
The Blue House at Verana is located right next to the ocean and is available as a rental apart from the hotel. Guests have access to all the amenities of Verana while having a cool, separate space to relax and rejuvenate in. The Blue House has three bedrooms and a private pool for your exclusive use.
Enjoy amazing ocean views from every room in the house. A kitchenette contains a small fridge (can be stocked prior to your arrival), coffee maker, and tea.
The Blue House accomodates up to six people in 3 bedrooms.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Light breakfast included, housekeeping and laundry service available, hotel amenities, spa and massage services, wifi throughout.
AROUND
It’s all about adventure as well as relaxation here. An hour or so south of Puerto Vallarta, the small fishing village of Yelapa is a remote outpost along the crescent shaped Bay of Banderas. Surrounded by picturesque wild habitat, the town is accessible only by boat so has thankfully escaped much of the mass tourism of other coastal towns (so far).
A half hour walk down the mountain, the town has a handful of beach bars and restaurants and a long beach for swimming and snorkeling or kayaking.
The uninhabited and protected Marieta Islands nature reserve makes a great day trip for whale and bird watching where if the waters are calm you can can snorkel through the dramatic sea-caves up to its hidden beach.
There are more local jungle treks to the Tecumata waterfall and other self-guided hikes to enjoy the lush scenery.

We were blow-away by the beauty and tranquility of this place.

We hesitate to elaborate so that this place is not overcome with popularity (or like The Velvateen Rabbit, loved to death?)
The Blue House is special and very private. The invigorating pool that goes with it , is a dream. The house
was so perfect for us because we loved being independant operators there . We were close enough to enjoy the pueblo of Yelapa as well as the luxury of hiking ” uptown” to Verana . The Blue House is for physically active navigators. It hangs over cliffs of crashing waves on rocks with wild jungle behind it. Town was a daily 20 minute hike over rock paths used also by the town porters, aka mules.
Verana is higher up. It is an artfully concieved resort property where it’s natural magic is respectfully developed,artfully and mindfully enhanced to a state of elegance and grace. The spa aspect, dining and bar are upscale and made to pamper , protect and heal it’s guests, by design. It is for those seeking escape from data and connection back to intuition and nature’s wonders.
Verana delivers.
The staff from Verana were superior, hard working individuals dedicated to hands-on , super friendly care and concern for our experience. We felt like they had become beloved family by the time we regretfully departed.
We saw extrordinary secrect treasures of places by mule ride , boat and foot with the help and guidence of the extraordinary Verana crew.
Thank you for an amazing rest.
We miss you already.
