General overview
Globes are welcome!
Our main home is in Victoria BC so we are not looking to swap our Mexican home for British Columbia properties. Globes however are welcome especially winter 25/26 which is completely open!
Two week minimum stay required per complex rules.
Three bedroom, three bathroom townhome in a 24/7 secure gated community. There are two pools in the complex and two large palapas with lounge chairs, eating areas and charcoal BBQ pits. We are within walking distance to the beach (five minutes) and town square (ten minutes). You have to cross the highway, however there are traffic lights and it is safe. There are two small shopping plazas steps away with an OXXO convenience store (similar to 7-11), pharmacy, bakery, and restaurants.
The space
Our lovely townhome with air conditioning throughout has three fully furnished bedrooms, all on the second floor: master bedroom with a king size bed, walk in closet and and ensuite bathroom. There's a large balcony off the master bedroom with patio loungers- It overlooks the pool; the second bedroom has a queen bed and the third has twin beds which can be converted to a king.
The main bathroom is on the second floor. Both upstairs bathrooms have walk-in showers. The ensuite bathroom has a bidet toilet. There is an additional bathroom on the main floor with a tub and shower. The main floor has a fully furnished kitchen with a gas stove, granite counters and a large refrigerator with ice maker.
We have an entire house water filtration system so it's safe to drink right from the tap. There is a small laundry room off the kitchen with a washer, dryer and laundry tub. Also on the main floor is the living room and dining room with a marble table which seats up to eight.
Wifi; TV. The small front patio at the entrance has patio chairs and a small gas BBQ. There is a covered carport and two parking spaces one where we park our car. The larger back outside patio has comfortable furniture with pull down shades for the afternoon sun. It overlooks the gardens and the smaller of two pools in the complex.
There are ceiling fans in all bedrooms and just about everywhere in the condo. In total we have twelve fans, including those outside both ground floor patios. Because the condo is mostly concrete construction, we often find the interior cooler than outside even without using the AC.
Guest access
Lockbox with keys plus very friendly neighbours who also have keys to access our home.
While we have a small dog, our complex only allows owners to have pets. So, while personally we would normally allow pets, we are unable to accommodate them in our Mexican home.
Notes
If you want, maid service is available for a reasonable cost, which we can arrange.

Neighbourhood
There are many beach restaurants, bars and fun nightlife all within a short walk. The street taco stands are safe and delicious! Taxi's are plentiful and the bus stop is a short block away. Buses can take you into Puerto Vallarta- about 45 minutes or up the coast to the funky beach towns of Sayulita and San Pancho and the magnificent beach of Destilladares, which I think is the most beautiful on the west coast of Mexico! There are three major grocery stores about 5-10 minutes by taxi or bus. There's also a daily small local Mexican market in the town square. On Sunday there is the local veggie/fruit/prepared local tacos and flea market within walking distance. It's full of the local people getting their weekly groceries, meeting friends and enjoying the day off.
Here is a very short video of our little town! EVERYTHING you see in the video is within walking distance!

Getting to my home
Taxi from the airport is the simplest.
Nearest airport
Puerto Vallarta airport (PVR) is 30-40 minutes away- depending on traffic and day of the week. Weekends in high season are very busy with flights from Canada and the USA.
Getting around
Buses and taxis are plentiful and reasonable. It's an easy walk to the beach and town centre.
I will leave lots of suggestions for favourite restaurants, things to do, where to go in Puerto Vallarta, Bucerias and the surrounding area.

Karen and Gail are beautiful people. We had great conversations about traveling. They are very easy, friendly and they took very good care of our house. We really can recommend an exchange with them. -
It was such a pleasure to welcome and meet Karen and Gail. The communication was excellent and we met a few times when they were here. It was a great exchange and I am glad to see the PLU spirit is alive ! -
Karen and Gail were wonderful guests, who looked after our plants and left our home neat and clean. Communication was great throughout and we discovered a number of shared interests. We would gladly host them again, or organise a reciprocal exchange. -
The perfect exchange couple. We would not hesitate to have them come again.
