Puerto Vallarta
Mexico with a little more soul.
Mountains tumble into the Pacific. Cobblestone streets lead to exceptional restaurants. Resorts hug the coastline while a real city carries on just beyond them. Puerto Vallarta gives you the luxury vacation you want without losing the Mexico you came to experience.
Plan your Puerto Vallarta trip →You don’t have to choose between resort and destination.
That’s what makes Puerto Vallarta different. You can stay somewhere beautiful and still have a genuine sense of place waiting outside the gates. The Sierra Madre frames the coastline, the city brings culture and character, and the restaurant scene gives you very good reasons to leave the resort.
But where you stay changes the experience considerably. Marina Vallarta, the Hotel Zone, the hillsides and beaches south of town, and the neighborhoods surrounding the historic center each create a different kind of trip. We know when being close to town matters, when the resort should be the destination, and when a little distance is exactly what you want.
The vibe: Sophisticated. Authentic. Lush. Social.
See yourself here.
Come for the resort. Stay interested in everything beyond it.
Experience a real Mexican city
Puerto Vallarta has an identity beyond tourism, with art, culture, shopping and neighborhoods that are genuinely enjoyable to explore.
Eat exceptionally well
Dining is part of the experience here, from polished restaurants to the local flavors that make getting out into town worth it.
Get out on the Pacific
The coastline, mountains and Banderas Bay create an entirely different water experience from Mexico’s Caribbean side.
Find some adventure
Jungle and mountains sit right behind the coast, giving Puerto Vallarta an adventurous side when you want more than pool and beach.
Have an actual evening out
Dinner, cocktails, galleries, shopping or nightlife. You can leave your resort after sunset and still have somewhere worth going.
The first decision isn’t the hotel. It’s how much Vallarta you want.
Decide where you want to be
Walkable and connected to town, tucked into the lush coastline, or settled into a resort where leaving is entirely optional. We start with the setting.
Then choose the property
Puerto Vallarta ranges from intimate boutique stays to sprawling resorts, villas and elevated luxury properties. We match the hotel to the vacation, not the other way around.
Leave room for Mexico
This is one destination where we don’t necessarily want you spending every waking hour at the resort. We’ll help you experience as much of Puerto Vallarta as feels right without turning your vacation into an itinerary marathon.
“We did the resort thing and the old-town thing in one week. It felt like two vacations.”
The best part of Puerto Vallarta may be what’s outside your resort.
We’ll find the right place to stay and the right balance between checking in and getting out.
