How many have Puerto Vallarta Vacation plans for 2008..2009

Post by Plus4 » Wed Apr 30, 2008 3:42 pm

Just curious :) How many have plans to go to Puerto Vallarta or other areas in Mexico 2008 and winter 2009 for a vacation ?..

When are you planning to go and where will you stay and for how long ?.. :)

What helps you make your final decision on the place you choose to stay at...
Price?... location? amenities etc ?

Bringing the family back 7-18/7-25....cant wait. This will be our 9th or 10th trip to PV! Went to Cancun in Feb of this year and will probably not go back. The water was beautiful but nothing compared to everything else PV has to offer! Thanks to Toms reviews, we will be returning to the Crown for a 2nd time. Love both the GCP and the CP.
Anyone else staying at the CP in July?

We've just booked a condo behind the Tropicana for two weeks starting Feb. 23rd, '09. We love the area and this year opted for a condo as we are hoping to lure a few family members down to experience our paradise!

Already counting the days!

All being well, I will go down in mid-October for about 6 weeks, return to Canada for Christmas, then back to PV with Dave in time for New Years and stay through the end of March. And of course we will be staying at Condo Ibiza.

We are definitely going this coming winter for a couple of weeks...... lately we've been talking taking advantage of these sell-offs and getting away for a week just on a spur of the moment kind of thing.....

Don't know where we'll stay.... we ARE NOT taking the kids this time...

I'm going in June for 1 week with my granddaughter and in Feb. Fred and I will be back for 2 weeks. Staying in a condo close to Los Muertos both times. My only worry is we've already bought our plane tickets and we fly Frontier airlines. I sure hope they can hold it together.

We've been to PV twice, both times in '07. We are planning another trip in October and this time we are going to stay in Bucerias.
We want to try somewhere a bit mellower than PV, yet be able to come and eat at some of our favorite spots without much trouble. We are also looking forward to checking out Sayulita and the coast.

Connor and i took mom and dad to P.V. last Dec. They had never been before and they had an absolute fantastic time.
Their 50th Annniv. is next April and all they want for this occasion is another trip to P.V. So my sisters , theire families, Connnor and i are taking them back the first week of May next year for 2 weeks. My sisters have never been beofre, so it will be great for them also.
We are staying in Bucerias. Mom and dad love that little town, so we will be staying at the Royal Decammeron.

As you all know we stay at the Golden Crown Paradise and currently we are booked for Thanksgiving week in 2008 and back again in February 2009... And we have already spent two weeks there back in February 2008....

we keep coming back here because of the staff (friends and family) that we have met over the 11 yrs we have been coming here... Feb 2008 we completed our 14th consecutive vacation to this resort... we have met so many wonderful people at this resort, as well as people from this bulletin board (Ellen and David, Joyce and Fred, Sandy and Fred, JRO, Redd and her mom, and on and on and on.)

we are looking at 4 days in HUATULCO at the end of january for a friends wedding and then move onto p.v. for 2 weeks and we are still undecided as to where we will stay, in old town like last year or if we will go to bucerias.We are also thinking of taking the kids and if we do then we will stay in bucerias.We will have to wait and see how the summer goes.We pick the places we stay at by location and price and so far have never been dissapointed.

have stayed at velas vallarta, la cruz villa, los muertos beach condo last
three consecutive years. just now putting $$ down for end of feb. '09
back at the velas - we're going to buy AI for 3-4 days and EP the rest.
aside from the usual fun & food in romantica zone, i am renting a car one
day for sure and heading north. i'd like to drive out to punta de mita,
cross over to libitu area and head maybe as far north as chacala,
la penita' at least.
- stop to see la cruz marina progress
- stop in sayulita briefly (never been)
- lunch at Vista de Guayabitos
- back across peninsula on hwy 200, stop in la cruz again for street tacos.
- maybe quick stop in bucerias

Just recently booked my 8th stay at the GCP for Nov. 5-12! I returned from a Mexican Riviera cruise with stops at Cabo, Mazatlan and PV 2 weeks ago and while it was a really good trip I realized that I would have rather spent the whole week in PV.
