Have you ever wondered how great it would be to leave all the in-laws and extended family behind and escape the Christmas Holidays altogether? Have you dreamed of sitting on the beach on Christmas Day rather than playing charades with your Uncle Tom? If so, then Puerto Vallarta is the destination for you. Not only do you get to leave all the stresses of Christmas behind, you get to experience a world class destination and get a winter tan.
Christmas in the States or Canada has its charm, we all know that, you can’t beat a white Christmas, but when every year is cold and miserable, a sunny winter getaway becomes a necessity rather than a luxury. No more dark nights and bitter mornings, Puerto Vallarta guarantees sunshine and warm temperatures, making you more likely to hang decorations on a palm tree than a fir tree.
Apart from warm temperatures and great sunny skies, Puerto Vallarta offers some of the best beach resorts that provide all inclusive as well as European plans. Furthermore, there are many opportunities to rent timeshare properties, which will give you more space for all the family as well as cooking facilities. Be careful though, one Christmas in Puerto Vallarta and you might be tempted to buy your own timeshare unit.
Puerto Vallarta is also a top family destination, perfect for bringing children as well as grandparents. There really is something to keep everyone happy and entertained. Most family oriented resorts will have lots of free activities on site, but there are many wonderful tours and activities that you can experience. For example, December is the perfect time for whale watching as the humpback whales generally arrive at the end of November for the winter months. Expert tours will take you to where these fantastic animals are jumping without disturbing the mammals in their habitat. Golf lovers will also be impressed by the great opportunities you will see for a round or two of golf and adrenaline junkies might want to take a parachute jump over the beach.
If you do not feel like celebrating Christmas in your hotel, then you will be pleased to know that Puerto Vallarta has a host of excellent restaurants to choose from. There are a number of gourmet quality establishments as well as more reasonably priced bistros. Nevertheless, by North American standards, the price of fine dining is much lower in Puerto Vallarta while the quality remains as high.
Getting anywhere that is not your neighbor’s house around Christmas time can be a hassle, yet you will find that flying to Puerto Vallarta is pretty straightforward. There are many cities offering direct flights to Puerto Vallarta and you can take advantage of some cheap deals if you buy your airplane tickets in advance or through a vacation club.
