Just got back from PV. Did the airport booth taxi recommendation, and it cost $25 USD to Zona Romantica. Quick and easy.
It drizzled rain two days while we were there which we had never experienced before on our Feb. trips, but we powered through it!

We used this service in Feb. and were very pleased. I received the email confirmation in about 3-4 hours. Their info includes how to proceed after you clear immigration and get your bags. Just ignore all the people who are trying to "give you a ride" i.e., sell you timeshares. Their booth was easy t...

Casa Kimberly
Do any of you locals know if the renovations on Casa Kimberly are ongoing? On the "homes tour" one of the guides said work had stopped for some reason in Feb. We had heard that it had been purchased by Mrs. Chatterton for a B&B.

Another Bus Question
We have an older map which shows a bus stop at Lazaro Cardenas Park--can we board it and ride all the way to the Marina? Thanks to you "locals" and any advice on riding the buses around.

Buses
We are a retired couple on an econo trip and want to sightsee using the city buses. If we ride a blue and white bus out to the Marina can we stay on the "loop" and ride back to Centro?

Tacos al Carbon
Is the tacos al cabon place next to Cafe Olla still in business at that same location? We enjoyed their food last Feb.

Update on this taxi reservation service
Hi, I've read the previous posts but have seen no new postings on this reservation service. Is it still providing the excellent service as reported in the past years? Good advice about alerting your credit card company in advance - much appreciated. Looking forward to our Feb. trip. Thanks, Cathy

I Got Sick THere Last Year
Hi, for newest info, go to Tripadvisor.com. I was browsing on it about a month ago and as of that time they were still having problems. It could be different now though. They have BEAUTIFUL rooms and wonderful grounds and neat location -- it's a shame they can't get the food right.

Romantic Zone
Hi, stressed mom!! We love staying at a truly Mexican colonial family-type hotel right on the beach in the Romantic Zone (next to downtown). Hotel Playa Los Arcos is a quirky, friendly medium-priced place. We always upgrade the room to have a water view when we make the reservation. Last Dec. we wer...

Dreams PV
Hi, we stayed a year ago at Dreams and absolutely loved it. No wristbands for all-inclusive, plus gourmet food and beautiful room and grounds. When you check in, you can ask the concierge what each evening's entertainment will be and then if you aren't interested in a particular theme night, you can...

GCP vs Dreams
We stayed at Dreams about 3 years ago and LOVED the food. It was bordering on Gourmet in the evenings and at the specialty restaurants--no plastic AI bracelets, no reservations required. We had to get up early same day to make reservations at GCP. Everything was first class at Dreams, and by compari...

Hotel in PV
Hi, I think you would like Hotel Playa Los Arcos in the Romantic ZOne. You can walk everywhere. It's more a 3 star, and you can go AI or just breakfast AI. There are so many great restaurants you can choose in PV for lunch and dinner! If you want a more pampered AI, we have stayed at Dreams and the ...
