At a glance

Casa Kimberly occupies what was once the Spanish Colonial home Richard Burton bought for Elizabeth Taylor as a birthday present in 1964, during the filming of Night of the Iguana. Burton later purchased the house opposite for himself, and the two were eventually connected by the Puente del Amor, the Bridge of Love that still arcs across Calle Zaragoza in Puerto Vallarta’s historic center.

Both homes have been reworked into a single nine-suite hotel. The Elizabeth Taylor Suite, the actress’s former personal quarters, sits at the top of the range, with a wrap-around terrace, private pool, and jacuzzi over Banderas Bay. The Richard Burton, Sandpiper, Flora, Cleopatra, and Velvet suites round out the lineup, each in Colonial style with antique furnishings.

Iguana Restaurant and Tequila Bar handles the dining side, and CK Spa covers wellness. The setting is the historic center of Puerto Vallarta, with the Malecón a short walk away.
