puerto vallarta delivers!

​Last year Geoff and I decided to see what the fuss was about and we took a week long vacation to Puerto Vallarta.  We decided to divide it between 5 days in the Playa Mita area which is further up the coast and 3 days in the city of Puerto Vallarta.
 
We found the whole area to be just beautiful!.  The Sierra Madre mountain range surrounds the area and making some pretty dramatic scenery.  Our first hotel was in a less populated region and our beach went on for miles. The beach was not crowded and we took long daily walks enjoying the mountains on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other.
 
In the city of Puerto Vallarta, the arts and culinary scene is very active. The Malecon is a lovely place for a stroll and is filled with sculptures and other forms of art.  There are so many quality restaurants that it's hard to comprehend.  It's not surprising that this area keeps increasing in popularity.  It's quickly become an office favorite for personal travel.
 
And……perhaps most importantly, you are guaranteed a stunning sunset no matter where you are situated!

destination of the week
puerto vallarta, mexico

Puerta Vallarta is more than just a coastal resort getaway. Somehow Puerto Vallarta – also known as "Vallarta" or just "PV" – maintains a small-town atmosphere, while still boasting one of the most unique and sophisticated ocean fronts in Mexico. The dining options and the hotel choices reflect more of the same – you'll find both elegance and efficiency mingled together within the hotel and restaurant areas.
Most people associate this west coast town with its boundaries – the Banderas Bay that snakes along the coast or the palm tree-lined Sierra Madre mountains that stand tall in the east – but Puerto Vallarta is more than its scenery. Take some time to discover its other perks for yourself by sampling the delicious food, discovering a hidden boutique in the Zona Romantica, sipping a signature cocktail at a bar along the Malecón or dancing to a salsa beat in a Havana-style nightclub. When you want a little guidance exploring beyond your resort, sign up for one of the Puerto Vallarta tours. And if you like to cruise, you'll be delighted to know that deals can be found year-round to this destination. 
 
The best time to visit Puerto Vallarta is between April and June when the weather is pleasant and the room rates are affordable. During these months, rain is scarce and there are fewer tourists compared to the winter high season. If you're interested in whale watching, however, visit from December to March. 
 
As is the case with neighboring Mexican and Caribbean vacation destinations, Puerto Vallarta's dining scene can be as narrow or expansive as you like, depending on how willing you are to venture off the grounds of your all-inclusive resort. From food carts to European fine dining establishments, PV's cuisine runs the gamut. For a crash course in the bold regional flavors that define the city, consider signing up for a food tour. One of the most popular is An Evening Taco Adventure, which explores the night street foods of Vallarta. If you'd rather take your own self-guided tour, you may want to head over to Food Park, where you'll find a collection of food trucks, along with live music and a DJ on the weekends.   And of course, no visit to Mexico would be complete without a sunset dinner on the beach.

travel tip of the week
tips for getting around puerto vallaRTa

Puerto Vallarta is a safe place to visit, and the local transportation system is very convenient. Visitors can take advantage of the bus system and taxi cabs.
The bus service in Puerto Vallarta is reasonably good. The buses are air-conditioned, but they do not run on schedule. They are also less expensive than taxis and are easy to find at each terminal throughout the city.
Taxis are also available throughout the city. However, they may not be as readily available as buses. Visitors should always ask for a taxi by its official name, “radio taxi” or “taxi de Turismo,” to know exactly what type of vehicle they will be riding in when taking a taxi ride in Puerto Vallarta.
 Uber is cheaper than a taxi and more comfortable than the bus!
