Many nice Puerto Vallarta hotels offer their services during the whole year, about 100 in total with a big number of 5 star or grand tourism class hotels. From all inclusive to european plan, from city hotel to beach resort, from adult club to family friendly, everything is available. Booking a Puerto Vallarta vacation package is not so complicated.

If You want a hotel close to the city or down town, You should choose one at the hotel zone south or north, if You want it more exclusive have a look to the Marina area or the dreams resort. For really quite and relaxed vacations best choice are the hotels in Nuevo Vallarta, but they are about 45 minutes by bus from the old Puerto Vallarta down town area.

To give You just one tip, the most mentioned hotels are the Crown Paradise hotels close to the marina. Offered are one for families and one for adults only. I mention this because in the statistics of internet researches this hotel is the most researched. Others are the Dreams Resort and Spa, 5 minutes south to Vallarta or the Grand Velas. Riu and Mayan Palace, both in Nuevo Vallarta are also mentioned many times.

For the experienced traveler, who knows that the nicest zone in Puerto Vallarta is the romantic zone at Olas Altas or Playa Los Muertos, dont forget to have a look to the mostly older and smaller hotels at this area. The romantic zone is the oldest touristical area around Puerto Vallarta, that for its more traditional and closer to the most interesting restaurants, bars, shops and galeries. 

Finally there are two more top notch tips for people with some money: the Four Seasons at Punta de Mita in the north, or the Hotelito Desconocido at the south, each of them about one hour by bus to Puerto Vallarta.

One of the best features for the traveler is the fabolous Puerto Vallarta weather. From mid October to mid June the temperatures are allways between 20 and 30 degrees celsius without rain fall. During the summer the temperatures go up to 38 or 40 degrees, with one or two hours of summer rain mostly in the afternoon.

The travelers prefer the time between November and May, because they can be sure to have sun more or less all days.

Traditionally november, december and january is the time with the most visits. I prefer the time between march and may, because there are less tourists and the oceans water is well temperatured. Also the hotels prices are lower during this time.

Just 3 days ago the Puerto Vallarta News announced the foundation of a new and international University of Arts. Featured are Ballet, Contemporanean Dance, Music, Theater and various additional areas of studies. I believe this is one of the best decisions of the last years in P.V. Many tourists like myself  had been asking for improved quality on touristical and cultural features. :lol: Thank You Vallarta !!
