Hey great choice for the hotel, regarding the weather on my particular point of view you do not have to worry about the weather, Yes it rains but most of the time during the evening, and no is not as busy as in the winter season.

Other thing the mosquitos are here all year around, they are part of your experice in the tropical weather, so please enjoy Vallarta.

Regarding the Tours try Vallarta Adventures, they are the best tour company in town

Hi Victor,

Thank you very much for the information. We are so excited about going and are not going to let the weather or some mosquitos get us down. One other question about the mosquitos though. I think i read someplace where they said that Aerosol cans were frowned upon. I am planning on bringing a can of Deep Woods. Do you think that that will be okay?

Thanks again.

Hi Chuck & Kay,

Thank you for your informative response. It was really helpful. I have read many of your postings about CP and it has helped us immensely in choosing our hotel. We are really looking forward to our stay and will post a trip report when we get back.

Take care,
Rob & Cin

We have stayed twice at the CP, it is the best, you will enjoy, enjoy enjoy! I have never been bothered by mosquitoes in PV, but have further south in Mexico. Get ahold of a Avon dealer and buy Skin So Soft Suncare/Mosquito, flea and deer tick repellent, it it also a sun screen, it works. In fact in Cozumel there \"Chamber of Commerce\" phamplets advise to bring it, it realy works! Have a great time!

Hi Mhahn,

thank you for the advice... will definitely be trying (looking for) the Skin So Soft. Not sure if they sell it here in Toronto. Otherwise will look for it in PV.

take care
