Located in the
charming Old Town, Zona Romantica, area of Puerto Vallarta
where a micro-climate
provides
cool
breezes off the ocean
and
mountains, this tiny
neighborhood of
Puerto Vallarta
has
near perfect weather in contrast to the hotel zone,
marina,
and Nuevo Vallarta areas which are often 10 degrees
hotter. Here
the high season
months are dry,
warm, and sunny with
breezy cool nights.
We love
this
part of town
where the cobbled
streets and
natural beach are alive with people
having a
great time all day and into the night. Here you
can swim
in the
magnificent heated pool; play in
the sand; go parasailing or rent a jetski;
visit the new Los Muertos Pier;
go to sunset
cocktail hour in bare
feet on the beach; go on a
canopy ecotour; take salsa lessons; catch a show at Blue Chairs, dine at a white tablecloth restaurant; watch whales & dophins playing;
eat your fill of fresh caught shrimp; buy handcrafted silver jewelry; listen
to live
music; watch the cathedral's dome and
fireworks
light
up the sky
from our patio; take a
water taxi to a secluded beach; be serenaded by a
mariachi
band; take the public bus for
6.5 pesos
(about 50 cents) to
explore the other side of
town; buy
fresh tamales for
tomorrow's
breakfast from a street vendor; or browse the many
artsy shops. Or maybe
you'd
like to stroll down to the Plaza for
the free
night time
live performances or stroll along the Malecon
to take in
the sites downtown.
There's something for everyone here.

yourself. In the

gently moving
with the breezes off the Bay of Banderas and the Sierra
Madre Mountains and comfortable chairs and sofas in
leather and woven natural
banana
leaf fiber with cool
cotton
upholstery. Saltillo tile

walls,

In the guest bedroom,
there
is a king bed which converts

room made up. The
converted
king is indistinguishable from a standard king.

along
with ample clothes storage in
each of the bedrooms.

work, handpainted
