We’ve put together a list of travel tips, recommendations, and accommodations.
Please reach out if you have any questions or need clarification on anything.

AIR

Fly into/out of: Puerto Vallarta (PVR)

We suggest arriving in PVR by December 3rd or morning of December 4th to avoid any flight delays. Check out our city guide for hotel, restaurants, and other recommendations.

LAND

Where: Puerto Vallarta Airport (PVR) —-> accommodation (city center is ~20 mins)

How: Uber or Taxi or ask us about suggested private car services

AVOID getting transportation inside the airport. Don’t let anyone persuade you as you exit the terminal. Order your own Uber or stand in the taxi line outside of the terminals.

HOTELS

We do NOT reccommend choosing all-inclusive rates, unless you plan on staying on the hotel property most of your trip. There’s a lot of incredible and affordable food in town.

VACATION RENTALS

We prefer rentals over hotels in PVR since it’s a walkable town (and most times it’s more cost-effective). These are just a few we’ve found that are all either walking distance or a short drive to Hacienda San Angel. Please do your own research and read all the reviews! If you have questions about a specific area, please ask us.

If you’d like to be connected to others looking to rent as a group, please reach out and we’ll help facilitate.

TRAVEL TIPS

Puerto Vallarta is a tourist town. It’s very safe but still be smart about your surroundings. Follow our tips below!

AVOID getting transportation inside the airport. Don’t let anyone persuade you as you exit the terminal. Exit the airport COMPLETELY and order your own Uber or stand in the taxi line outside of the terminals.

Don’t drink and brush your teeth with tap water unless you are 100% sure the water is filtered at your accommodation. If you’re not sure, use bottled water only.

Avoid ice in your drink unless you’re at a reputable place and are certain they use filtered water for ice.

Don’t carry your passport around town and instead, put it in your accommodation’s safe (if available) while you are out.

Most places take credit card, but having pesos on hand is helpful for street vendors, emergencies, etc. There are ATMs in town but we always convert currency at our departing airport or at our bank at home first.

DON’T FORGET TO PACK YOUR PASSPORT!
