Romance is in the air in this charming, authentic Mexican village. Red-tiled rooftops, bougainvillea in abundance, and winding cobble stone streets set the scene.
Puerto Vallarta nestles on the slopes of the Sierra Madre Mountains where Banderas Bay kisses the shores. It has been an icon of romance ever since Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton held their love-tryst there – and fell in love with this enchanting village – in 1963.
Today, luxury hotels and miles of beautiful beaches surround Puerto Vallarta. Dining options range from simple, delicious Mexican to award-winning gourmet restaurants, and activities include sailing to hidden coves, experiencing jungle adventures and cascading waterfalls, and golfing world-championship courses.
Pure romantics savour pre-dinner strolls along the Malecon, Puerto Vallarta’s oceanfront sidewalk lined with palm trees and stunning sculptures. They pause to watch breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific, and mingle with friendly locals who come with their families to enjoy the show.
When darkness settles, this sleepy Mexican village erupts into a lively nightlife of bustling bars and exciting clubs… and anticipation of another romantic day in Puerto Vallarta.
