English Wake up to the fairway. Casa Santa Cruz is a cozy two-level home in Villas Fairway, backing directly onto the Marina Vallarta golf course, with palms and open green views from the living room, the back porch and the primary suite. On the ground floor, the open living, dining and kitchen area sits under a vaulted, beamed ceiling, and a wall of sliding glass opens to a covered back porch that looks straight out over the golf course. It's an easy place for morning coffee or sunset drinks. The kitchen has white shaker cabinets, granite counters, a breakfast bar and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. Also downstairs are a bedroom, a full bathroom and a separate laundry room.

Supplementos: A marble staircase with a hand-forged iron railing leads upstairs to three more spacious bedrooms. The primary suite has a vaulted ceiling, a private balcony overlooking the golf course, a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with a double vanity and a rain shower. A second bedroom also faces the fairway. The third is a proper bedroom with a closet and its own balcony, currently set up as a flex room with a pull-out couch. A full bathroom serves the upstairs. The home also has an exterior bodega, a side garden, ceiling fans and mini-split air conditioning. Residents share a large pool and palapa in a quiet gated community. The marina, beaches and shopping are minutes away, and the airport is a 5-minute drive.
