Where to stay in Puerto Vallarta
Puerto Vallarta is divided into five zones, each offering a different experience. Choose the zone that best suits you for your accommodation. The North Zone includes Nuevo Vallarta, a tourist destination, and the upmarket Marina Vallarta with its many resorts and golf courses. The Hotel Zone can be found around the harbour, while all the action is in downtown Puerto Vallarta. The charmingly named Romantic Zone, south of downtown Puerto Vallarta, is so-called because of its historical, colonial charm complete with cobbled streets and beautiful architecture. Finally, the South Zone is known for its resorts, big beaches and calm surf. Accommodation options in the city range from 5-star hotels and all-inclusive resorts on private beaches to laid-back bungalows.

Frequently asked questions
Puerto Vallarta's beaches offer the perfect trifecta – sand, sun and fun! From the impossibly clear waters of Playa de Oro to the buzzing boardwalk of Los Muertos, there's no shortage of sun-kissed beach bliss in this vibrant Mexican city.
Puerto Vallarta is often ranked as one of the friendliest cities by various polls so is considered safe for international visitors. Zona Romantica (the Romantic Zone), Marina Vallarta and Zona Hotelera (the Hotel Zone) are the ideal spots to feast on fresh seafood and soak up the sun with peace of mind!
Glad you asked! The best time to head to Puerto Vallarta is from April to June when the weather is warm and there are smaller crowds than peak season. If you have your heart set on whale watching, aim for December to March to catch a glimpse of the majestic mammals as they make their annual migration to Banderas Bay.
Swim with dolphins and sea lions, spot some whales, check out life under the sea with a spot of snorkelling or scuba diving, learn to sail, eat your way around on a self-guided food tour, fly through the jungle canopy on a zip line, go parasailing, do some sightseeing, skip from bar to bar, the list is endless!
