Puerto Vallarta

It's HWY#200 so be careful crossing the street. Did you figure out a hotel?

Yes, after reading many reviews I decided on Garlands del rio. It is near the other hotels you recommended. I went with this one since the reviews talked about how comfortable the beds / pillows are and looks like a nice place. (my last vacation in Tulum had bad pillows and bed so looking to avoid the neck pain this time). It seems there is no one up front after 9 pm so if I have a guest it should be fine.

Great that helps. I could not tell if that road was crossable on foot. If I can cross the road head for the grocery store or head 3 blocks north.

When Visiting Las Antorchas in the afternoon are there taxi's near by? I noticed from google maps there is not much around it. Does the bar call for a ride?

Also is there any other clubs or brothels that are hard to find rides back from?

There is a Soriana's across the street from Las Antorchas. There should be some taxi's in their parking lot. If not, there's a Walmart and a Sam's Club a few blocks north there are always taxi's there.

Las Antorches is a P4P cantina bar with rooms on the premises. They are open from 10 am to 6 pm.

La Botana Bar is another P4P cantina bar next to the offices of Telecable in downtown Puerto Vallarta and they are open from 11 am to 1 am I believe. This is a takeout only place, a dive bar like Las Antorches, actually Las Antorches in better.

The cantina bars such as Mesa de Coco, Bloody Marys, Mar (e) Tierra are open from 10 am until 10 or 12 at night.

All the beach bars Tomjackin mentioned such as Burros are opened obviously in the morning and close at 9 or 10 pm.

The street walker scene begins around 4 pm in the area of Colonia 5 de Diciembre. Calle Guatemala, especially on the corner with Boliva. (Downtown Puerto Vallarta) and a couple blocks from La Botana Bar. The other street walker area mentioned by Tomjackin starts are 5 or 6. There are only a few that hangout in this area. Mesa de Coco and Bloody Marys are also in this area of the city, walking distance actually to one another.

For escorts you can contact me and I can give you the contact information for my friend who runs girls that also work in King George, Aqua and those upper type of places. As Tony1010 mentioned it is 1800 pesos for one hour, and you can get a discount for longer periods of time. These girls are very beautiful.

The table dance bars and the nightclubs stay open until 5 to 6 am, so this is the reason things get started later in Puerto Vallarta.

I would plan some tourist activities during the daytime hours, or spend the day at the beach. Do not expect to find much girl action in the bars, as Puerto Vallarta is not like that. If you want daytime girl fun it is in the dive bars I mentioned, or in King George which is a relaxed upscale bar, (It is actually called a Sports Bar) or call my friend. I would also suggest on your first night that you get some phone numbers and set up dates for any future days you are going to be in Puerto Vallarta as it will be much more cost effective for you. Puerto Vallarta is an expensive city to play in, but so much fun! If you are like Tomjackin or myself who do not mind spending money when we are on vacation then you are going to leave Puerto Vallarta with some everlasting memories, but if you are on a tight budget then Puerto Vallarta might not be the place for you, unless the quality of the girls is not a major importance to you. I also have a couple of girls who are very good providers, older in there 30's but good good looking, but not like the knockouts you would find in King George or through my friend, and I am willing to share there information with you if you promise discretion. They will provide very good service for approximately one hundred dollars and stay with you for a longer period of time at no charge if you they are comfortable with you and you want to have some drinks or company at lunch / dinner.

If you indeed go, have fun and enjoy all that the beautiful city of Puerto Vallarta has to offer. The report by Tomjacklin says it all, and the pricing you can expect to pay. The malecon (boardwalk area) is a must for any visitor to experience especially at night. It tends to get lively around 8 to 9 pm.

I will be traveling to PV solo in Three Weeks for 6 nights. I have been there before, but with a signifcant other at the time so didn't even try mongering. That said, it didn't look like it was in your face but felt that it could be had. Your post confirms this. '.

While I am happy to go to King George etc. And will, I personally prefer take out. TLN preferred. Old Parr, can you link me up with your friend or anyone you know that can get me there? I would really appreciate it. I tried messaging you but I can't figure it out (I am a board newbie.).

Any advice that anyone can give would be great. Thank you.

Thank you for hotel choices that helps. I will post an update of how it went. Going to try to hit all the hot spots mentioned here and fishing on Friday. Looking forward to it.

I believe that the best area to stay in PV is the Zona Romantica, in one of many small inns. A place I have stayed twice, and can recommend, is Estancia San Carlos. If you book a double room, it's guest friendly, they have a small but nice pool, and there are tons of great restaurants within walking distance. It's maybe 4 blocks from the beach as well. Posada Roger is also good, but the rooms are bigger and the pool is better at Estancia San Carlos.

The bigger hotels, like the Westin, Sheraton, and Marriott are only semi guest friendly, and the beach area that they are on, near the Marina, is not as nice. By semi-guest friendly, they will ask for the guest's ID, and they will give you grief if you bring in more than 1 different guest during your stay. The Sheraton is closer to the Malecon than the Westin and Marriott. If you do want to go that route, you can get one of those 3 places for cheap rates (like $50-60 a night) on Priceline. The first time I stayed in PV, I got the Westin on Priceline for $47 plus fees and taxes, and I stayed there for 4 nights before moving to the Zona Romantica. After checking out several smaller places in the Zona Romantica, the two I thought were the best were Posada Roger and Estancia San Carlos.

The Westin is awesome I visited some friends that were staying there and I had no problems getting up to their room. No one asked me for my ID it was like I was staying there myself. It's too far away from where all the action is though. I've never heard of Estancia San Carlos. Another hotel on the south side is the Encino. It's closer to the beach than Posada de Roger and they also have a pool and a bar on the rooftop although I've never been up there before. Pretty basic rooms there.

I'm going to be in PV for the first time in 2 weeks for 5 days. From previous posts it seems like the malecon area is the place to be? I am not looking for an all inclusive resort just something nice clean and maybe guest friendly. Trying to be in a central location where I can walk to most places. Anyone have any good hotel experiences?

Hotel Posada de Roger is on the south side on Basilio Badillo. It's a few blocks from the beach and there's a great breakfast and lunch restaurant right beside it. There's also a small pool in the hotel. Last I heard you were allowed to bring an outside visitor up to your room without any problems.

Recently returned from a short trip to PV. Thanks OldParr, TomJackin & John Dough. Without you guys and the board, I would not know where to go, how much to pay and what to do. In a nutshell PV is cool. My fav & most frequented joint is the Kings Bar. Easy & Cheap drinks. No pressures. The girls give a true GFE. Ooh can not wait to return.

Side note: I got myself a Unifone sim at the walmart for 200 pesos. That gave me internet. Also exchanged $$ at the Walmart. Got a much better rate than what I was offered at the airport.

Old Parr,

A big thank you to Tomjackin for covering Puerto Vallarta (PR) so well. And thank you for directing me to his post. I've cancelled my plans for Cancun and instead looking at PR flights.

3 things:

1.) Club Aqua, Taboo, Candy's and Harem are on my must visit list. Should I add anything else?

2.) What are the options for an overnight companion in the room? To me the clubs are good for a quick pit stop but I also prefer to have a warm body in bed at night. Is that an option in PR? Or is it best not to have a companion in the room?

3.) On the hotel front. How is the Marriott, or Hyatt? Will I make a mistake if I choose to stay at a resort over something like Hotel Rio?

Everything is basically covered in the post by Tomjacklin. As far as overnight guests goes, check with your hotel. There are also several good short time hotels / motels that are close to all of the P4P places that are not that expensive and are really nice. You also might consider a condo from VRBO / Airbnb. I also can recommend you several lower option smaller hotels that are not listed on the travel broker websites that are in the area of 50 to 60 dollars a night. With you being in Puerto Vallarta just for a couple of days I would go the condo route or checkout one of these smaller hotels. I am not a fan of the major hotels unless you are going to use the amenities that they offer. Air conditioning is a must in any option you decide on as the weather now in Puerto Vallarta is very hot and humid.

Here is a excellent link that might be of help to you.

http://puerto-vallarta-rentals.com/ Plaza Mar Condos are reasonably priced luxury condos and in the perfect area, as you are directly on the malecon, (boardwalk area) and with in steps of everything you would want. It is the perfect area to be in. If you elect to go the condo route let me know as I will see if I can get you a discounted rate, as I rent condos from the rental agent (Jeff) quite often for friends and family members who come to visit. Jeff is also a really good guy.

Would I ever return? Hell yeah, I already booked my next trip!
