The Hotel Zone of Puerto Vallarta is known for the wide variety of luxury spas available in the all-inclusive resorts, as well as some excellent gourmet restaurants.

Downtown, or “El Centro” is a bustling center with just about any activity available to visitors, but perhaps the best part is strolling and shopping along the Malecón. Lined with excellent restaurants, stores, and art galleries, the Malecón is decorated with interesting statues created by various artists specifically for the city of Puerto Vallarta.

The Romantic Zone is the older part of Puerto Vallarta, and another great place to do some walking. Located near busy Los Muertos Beach, the Romantic Zone is home to even more restaurants and shops, as well as The Santa Barbara Theatre (www.santabarbaratheater.com), the Flea Market on the Isle Río Cuale, and the embarkation point for the Canopy Tours and several water taxis
