The Romantic Zone: honoring its name

No matter who you’re travelling with – boyfriend, girlfriend or date -, the meeting point in Puerto Vallarta par excellence is the Romantic Zone. You’ll get to prove it once you’re there: the diversity of people, places, activities, and plans is abundant by both day and night.

Here are some ideas to enjoy one of the most charming areas in town, during the hours when the sun shines bright, or when night falls and the atmosphere is filled with party and celebration. 

By day

A walk through the picturesque streets of this neighborhood, also known as Olas Altas, will surely whet your appetite with the many cafes and restaurants around the area, with delicious treats to take a break before you continue your stroll. As you discover the area, you’ll come across the Tile Park, filled with colorful mosaic tiles and murals, a sought-after spot by couples wishing to spend some alone time under the shade of a tree. If you happen to be there on a Saturday, make sure to visit the local farmers’ market, offering all kinds of crafts, and delicious local and international food. End your evening visiting a gallery to give your romantic date a cultural touch.

By night

It’ll be hard to decide where to spend your night. Do as locals do and go bar hopping, from one club to the next. Make sure to visit the trendiest spots with fabulous and awaited Drag Queen presentations, and stop at the latest bars to try creative cocktails and the ultimate mixology, and dance to the beat of local and featuring DJ’s. Whatever your music style, you’ll surely find a spot that is making everyone dance to its rhythm. Would you rather go for a more romantic plan? You’re in the best area in town, since the Romantic Zone is peppered with restaurants – both casual and elegant – for a candlelit dinner for two, or with your feet on the sand, under the stars.

What will you choose? Of course, if you have enough energy, just change your outfit and move from one plan to the next!
