Puerto Vallarta Accommodation

The culinary options are plentiful here and the town is dotted with romantic, sea-facing restaurants and terraces, several hosting daily live music. Mexican fajitas, enchiladas, and margaritas are to die for, while Le Bus Burgers serves up tantalizing beef, chicken, fish, and veggie burgers, all barbecued to perfection. Adventurous foodies who wouldn't mind chomping into roast crickets and cactus salad should head to El Arrayan.

Puerto Vallarta features a myriad of beachside bars and clubs where night-owls can while away the twilight hours with excellent drinks and tranquil views.

Puerto Vallarta typically enjoys a subtropical climate with year-round sunshine. January to March brings perfect conditions with cool, dry evenings. However, Puerto Vallarta holiday accommodation is in high demand during this period and will need to be booked in advance. The crowds taper off between April and June, while temperatures are still pleasant enough. July to September brings heat, rain, and sweet discounts on Puerto Vallarta holiday accommodation – why not grab a bargain? October through December is festival season and is a great time to visit.

Puerto Vallarta was once a humble fishing village in the Jalisco state of Mexico. Today it is a vibrant holiday resort city which welcomes international visitors to enjoy its beaches, warmth, and sunshine. Spend a day at the Vallarta Botanical Gardens, home to orchids, agaves, cacti, palms, and even a river, plus a lovely restaurant.

With cobblestone streets and quaint streetlamps, the Old Town of Puero Vallarta is as charming as it gets. During the high season, visitors are treated to wine and cocktail tastings, concerts, art expos, and film screenings. The Old Town Art Walk in El Centro takes place every Wednesday night and features many interesting local galleries. Theatre Agustin Flores Contreras welcomes English and Spanish theatre groups.

Adventure and nature enthusiasts have much to relish in Puerto Vallerta, with hiking, mountain biking, jeep safaris, snorkeling, scuba diving, and horseback trails on offer. After all that activity, why not rent a yacht or spend the evening on a party cruise?

Puerto Vallarta Whale Watching Tours take place from December to March. Whales, dolphins, and porpoises can be spotted frolicking happily in the Pacific. A visit to Banderas Bay is a must for surfers and those keen to explore some stunning tropical ecosystems along the coast. Kitesurfing, jet skiing, and parasailing are all possible too. Take the kids down to the Sea Life Park by Dolphin Discovery, then bring the day to a close back at your cozy Puerto Vallarta holiday letting .

Once New Year festivities have died down, the next big thing is the Day of the Mexican Flag, where ceremonies are held to commemorate the heroes who fought for their country's freedom. Easter and the preceding Holy Week are celebrated with much fervor in Puerto Vallarta. November features the popular Sailfish & Marlin International Tournament and the Puerto Vallarta Gourmet Festival. Book Puerto Vallarta holiday homes early to catch these highlights of the local calendar.

One cultural date of particular note is the Day of the Dead, held on November 1st and 2nd. Mexicans remember their ancestors by building altars and serving the favourites dishes of the deceased. Graves are visited and stories are narrated around the dearly departed. The Day of the Dead is a day of feasting, memories, and laughter. Similarly, the Feast of the Virgin de Guadalupe is celebrated grandly in December. Finally, the Old Town transforms into a veritable fairyland at the year's end. Puerto Vallarta holiday lettings tend to be very busy during this popular season.
