Mexico is a haven for tourists. Whether it is the beaches, the music, the dancing, the food, the cocktails (oh, the cocktails), or simply just the privacy and exclusivity that beckons a peace-wanting soul; Mexico has a slice for every kind. No matter how many times you have been here, and how many times you plan to come here, no one has ever seen everything that Mexico has to offer. A fruit plate of culture, art, music, food, locals that make life an easy affair and beaches that lift you into a solitary dream, this is the place to be, for a happening trip, for an adventurous trip or simply for a discover yourself trip!
Consider it the old hollywood charm or just the gateway to pristine waters with golden-white sands, Puerto Vallarta screams luxury! Set in a sweeping bay full of lush rainforests, marine life, a balance of tourist and local population as well as an authentic friendly and laid back atmosphere, Puerto Vallarta is the perfect stop for those looking for a combination of comforts as well as a varied menu of adventure and entertainment activities.
Affectionately known as the Zona Romantica, Puerto Vallarta with its cobblestone streets, cafes and little boutiques lined all over, is the perfect escape for your city blues. A lively art scene and a traditional cuisine put together; and we have paradise.
A day spent at El Malecon, admiring the street artists, performers, souvenir shops and buzzing restaurants and the evening completed at the Playa Los Muertos, for an unmatched vista along the pier, is the best way to catch up on the best that this coastal town offers. A menagerie of experiences, Puerto Vallarta is the hub for all this comfort, shopping, culture, art and island-life.
They say, when in doubt, hit the beach. And that is exactly what you can do here. Whether an independent trip to Mexico, or a stop over getaway from your main holidays, this town is a must-do on your checklist. And here’s why.
We found the most comforting private solitude that I am now eager to visit as soon as 2020’s COVID plans are dealt with. The La Troza, a private villa along the cliffside of Puerto Vallarta, is the perfect haven, quietly nestled south of the town, in between lush rainforests and the pacific ocean. Accessible only by boat, and surrounded by greenery and crystal waters, La Troza is literally paradise on earth. With a beach house, 2 casitas and just one 2-bedroom villa, La Troza is privacy perfect with Fine mexican art and artistry surrounding you as you relax under a huge palapa roof designed and created by local craftsmen!
When I go to Mexico, I know where I am staying next. What about you?
