Ariel & Eric

Option1:  Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa

This  hotel is located next door to the wedding venue- less than a 5 min walk. (Shuttles will be available as well)

Special  wedding rates (if still available) can be found at: ERIC & ARIEL SPECIAL GROUP RATE OR, 2 rooms just came available under my rate due to a cancellation- first come, first serve.  Hit us up!!

If no rooms are left on Group rate, it is suggested you search any other web site to book a room at Garza Blanca. 

Option 2: ALSO, there is a sister hotel at the SAME property of GARZA BLANCA called HOTEL MOUSAI.  These prices will be the most expensive of all options, but they are VERY nice and next door to the wedding venue. 

If no good options at Garza Blanca/Hotel Mousai, then it is suggested you go to one of the next few options. 

Option 3:  Hyatt Ziva.  This hotel is located only 8-10 minutes away by taxi and is another wonderful hotel.  This is also going to be the least expensive alternative for all hotels AND is very nice. Search anywhere for the best rates.  

Option 4: Grand Fiesta Americana Hotel.  This hotel is located only 3-4 minutes away by taxi and is another wonderful hotel with rates in between Garza Blanca and Hotel Mousai. Search anywhere for the best rates.

Option 5:  Any other hotel in Puerto Vallarta!  There are plenty of options to choose from.  If not sure, then email Eric to assist you. 

Suggest you arrive  December 9th or sooner and stay til Sunday the 12th or Monday the 13th.

There are plenty of direct flights from San Diego, Tijuana and LAX (as well as other airports).
Cabs from airport work fine or you can contact the hotel to arrange transportation.

Puerto Vallarta is a gorgeous beach resort city that lies along the Pacific Coast of Mexico, within the heart of U-shaped Banderas Bay where the states of Jalisco and Nayarit meet. The Ameca River is the dividing point between the two states. Formerly a colonial port town, Puerto Vallarta is located in the state of Jalisco, and its state capital is Guadalajara. Locals, expats and frequent visitors often refer to Puerto Vallarta as simply Vallarta or PV.

The heart of Puerto Vallarta is vibrant and colorful, filled with the area’s rich heritage and simple splendor. Visitors are greeted by quaint and modest handmade adobe-brick houses, as well as colonial-style buildings, primarily whitewashed stucco with orange tiled roofs. Lining the city’s narrow, winding cobblestone streets are an incredible variety of boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, bars, shops and vendors. Take a stroll along Puerto Vallarta’s picturesque Malecon, the city’s one-mile oceanfront boardwalk that hugs the beach as it follows the main street in downtown PV.

Throughout the Banderas Bay area you will experience the merging of traditional culture with modern conveniences. Here you will discover some of the last remaining beach towns in Mexico that have retained their historic old-town colonial feel while offering top-notch resort accommodations and modern amenities.

It’s easy and fun to integrate into the fun and laid-back Puerto Vallarta lifestyle. Simply walk its colorful and historic streets, mingle with other visitors, and strike up interesting conversations with locals. We encourage you to reach out and engage with rhythm of life in this beautiful, enchanting city. Those who visit Puerto Vallarta make memories that last a lifetime.

If you are of the adventurous type or one who prefers something more relaxing, in Puerto Vallarta there are all sorts of outings from boating, horse back riding, swimming with dolphins, swinging above the forest canopy, golfing on beautiful courses, snorkelling, diving, whale watching and much more.
