3.- What are the seasons in Puerto Vallarta ?

High Season
Lasts from the second half of November to the last day of April.

Low Season
Lasts from the month of May until the end of the second week of November. Within this time period we have the rainy season which basically consists of the months of August, September and October. During this season it usually rains in the afternoon or in the evening. While the radiant sun is bathing our beaches during the day, during the night the rain inspires and invites to remain curled up enjoying an excellent climate and spectacular sounds. This time of the year is known as the most romantic one.

Special Dates
Easter Week, the week after Easter, Christmas week and New Year are dates which are considered independently from the seasons. These are the weeks with the highest level of demand.

4.- What is the average rental rate of a property in the destination ?

As a rule the first thing that is taken into consideration in order to establish a rental rate whether daily, weekly or monthly, is the season of the year. Here the law of supply and demand predominates. Holidays like Christmas and New Year's are the most popular and the rates for high season are higher than those for the low season.

Another aspect that is taken into consideration in order to determine the rent is the location of the property. Many times this is more determinant than the size of the property itself. There are one bedroom studios with an impressive view of the bay that rent for more than a 2 bedroom villa within the residential area of the city. Location, location and location is again the name of the game.

In some cases, especially if you would like to rent for longer periods, the agencies or agents are open to negotiate the rates. Another case is last minute rental opportunities. Essentially this happens when there is a cancellation for some properties that were already reserved, a few days before the arrival of the tenants.

We estimate that the average weekly rent charged for a one bedroom condominium with ocean view in Puerto Vallarta during high season fluctuates between USD 1,100.00 and 1,800.00. Some of these condos sleep up to 4 adults. This is only an estimate and does not pretend to be the average of the real rates existing in the market of the zone.

5.- Is it truly more convenient to rent a condominium villa or house, instead of a hotel room ?

Many travelers have verified that economically speaking it is more convenient to rent an apartment, condo, villa or house compared to paying a hotel room. If it is about economizing or optimizing, then this way is very convenient indeed. In addition if the aim of your trip is to experience a closer connection with the people, their atmosphere, traditions and their culture, then of course renting a property contributes highly to achieving this. As a matter of fact renting a vacation property may turn into the best experience that you have ever had during a vacation in our destination.

In addition to renting a property, some agencies offer the service of hiring maids, cooks, servants and/or drivers during the period of your stay. For those who money is not a problem, hiring these services is like adding a cherry on the top of a cake that has been prepared according to your taste. It is here where the experience of traveling becomes a space to be truly pampered by you and by others. There is nothing more stimulating than to be spoiled by happy people and people who are highly dedicated to offering a super first class service.
