Has anyone ever stayed in the Girasol Sur Condos?
If so, then could you tell me about them and the surroundings.
How is the beach? How is the diving in PV and can anyone recommend who to dive with?

I want to thank you for the info. I was really scared that we had picked the wrong place to vacation this year. I am glad that this place is out of the tourist area. We usually rent a casa on Isla Mujeres (a island off of Cancun) which has hardly no tourists but is starting to get really popular. I do not like the tourist areas. I have not been to PV in 10 years and back then it was great. I heard they have a Wal-Mart now and it looks like the US as does Cancun. I like old towns where you really can get to know the people and their culture as I am a history major. Thanks again for the info.
diverfromdallas when will you be in PV?
Thank you jennybean. That makes me feel a whole lot better. Rosie, I will be in PV July 23rd thru August 2. Can anyone recommend a good dive company and how is the diving in PV.
GIRASAL SUR
My wife and 2 kids stayed at giraal about ten years ago. The condo we were in had two bed rooms upstairs the condo had two balconys up stairs and one off the living room. These two floors were joined with a beautiful metal spiral staircase The property had a nice pool with a swim up bar or sit down area. Be side this there was a palapa covered restaurant facing the bay of banderas. The beaches are on either side of the property because of a wave break . be carefull when swimming very stong waves also undertow which pulls you out to sea. the grounds are beutiful and staff were helpfull. Right of the entrance is a little store if you need some grocerys or cold beer. Last year my wife and I went back to puerto vallarta and we stoped by to see if girasal had changed any to our surprise everything was exactly the except the trees and plants were much bigger. We sat in the gardens had a beer reminised about the time we had with the kids and how beutiful every thing looked. I hope this helps you .
Thanks for the great info. I will be staying there in Nov. for 2 weeks, the owner of the condo has sent me some info that backs up what you have posted along with some great past referances of people staying there.
