My replies are disappearing!
On several occasions lately, I have posted a reply. The screen comes up and says that my reply has been posted, but when I look for it, just an empty box is there. Help!

Re:Rancho Bandaras
PV has a great water purification system. Once you get outside of PV, you should always use bottled water unless the resort says they have purified water coming out of the faucets. You sure don't want to get sick on vacation. So be safe!!

Re:Honeymooning in Bucerias
Where are you staying while in Bucerias? That may decide whether you need a car. Buses run frequently between Bucerias and PV. It is easy to walk to most restaurants--again depending on where you are staying. Famar, Dugarels, and Karen's Place are also good places to eat in Bucerias.

Re:Best place to exchange $$$
Using the ATM's in Mexico is not free any more--Brenda had an entry several days ago that addressed that very subject.

Re:Best place to exchange $$$
All the experts say that you get the best rates at banks. It seems strange, but the airport is one of the best and very convenient.

Is there still a video store in Bucerias? Has anyone used it? Are the videos in English or Spanish?

Re:Just back from a week at the Crown Paradise!!
Look up www.crownparadise.com. Has pictures and statistics. It is 3 miles from downtown--5 minutes from the Marina. It is only a block out to the main street and you can catch a bus to downtown.

Re:Hacienda
It certainly isn't a "s*** hole." Probably rated 2 or 3 stars. Never looks dirty or anything. Right next door to the Krystal. Guests can use the Krystal beach. Certainly not luxury, but there are a lot worse. Right on the bus line to go downtown.

Hacienda
Have never stayed there, but have eaten there a lot. Decent food, nice pool, and always looks OK. Guests there usually can use the beach at the Krystal Hotel( right next door.) It is very handy to get downtown from there also.

Re:Premiere Hotel & Spa
Check this site to see when it is scheduled to re-open. Of course, that can always be delayed. Who knows what the beach is like in that part of town?

Have been to PV many times, but, for a change, we are staying at Casa Manana in Bucerias in January, 2003. Any hints on shopping in Bucerias for things like fresh fruit, deli meats, etc. as we have a full kitchen available? Did I read that there is a bank there now? There is a VCR available. Is ther...

What is an interac card? I have an ATM card, but never heard of an interac card. Is it helpful when travelling?

Re:Hotel Rosita
You might take a look at www.hotelrosita.com. There are a few pictures, the map shows what part of town it is in, and you could always e-mail them about the all-inclusive thing.
