Puerto Vallarta Maps & Areas
Situated on Banderas Bay, the
largest bay in Mexico, Puerto Vallarta is in the state of
Jalisco, home to mariachi and tequila, quaint villages and
modern travel destinations. With dozens of small beaches, some
developed, some almost hidden; Jalisco and its northern neighbor
Nayarit offer a never-ending
supply of options.
Punta
Mita Real Estate:
The mythical mystical Punta de Mita continues to attract not
only attention but investments from around the world . Even in
prehistoric times, this peninsula that forms the northern arm
protecting Banderas Bay was the destination of annual
pilgrimages to pray to the gods for rain in the near by
mountains . Now the region is home to some of the most deluxe
high-end homes, villas and condominiums on the
entire Mexican Pacific Coast.
Airport
Valley Real Estate:Ixtapa
is a town just outside of Puerto Vallarta more or less east of
the airport. For those who haven’t been there, the turn-off to
Ixtapa is marked where the major speed bumps cross the road at
the intersection with signs not only for Ixtapa but also for the
university and Las Palmas.
Riviera
Nayarit:
Once you continue beyond Banderas Bay, the mountains hide the
remainder of the Pacific Coastline until you zigzag through them
to once again connect with the shore. Sayulita is recognized
worldwide for good surfing. Next on the coast is the Mexican
pueblo of San Pancho (San Francisco) where not only do you find
gourmet but polo, beaches and boutique hotels. And finally, the
popular Lo de Marcos, where Mexican families find their spots on
the beach during busy holidays.
Hotel
Zone:
For native Vallartans, this area along Ave. Francisco Medina
Ascencio lined with majestic palm trees has marked the northern
entrance to the city.
Marina
Vallarta Real Estate:
Marina Vallarta began with a dream of creating a new level of
life on Banderas Bay where sailboats, yachts and fishing craft
count on a safe harbor. It features residential sites, a
shopping mall, a school, condominiums, first-class hotels with
landscaping throughout.
Litibú,

and commercial centers. A total of 14,500 rooms will offer a
variety of upscale establishments with five-star and boutique
hotels prime among them.
Nuevo
Vallarta / Flamingos Real Estate:
As one of the fastest growing, most successful investment
regions in the state of Nayarit, Nuevo Vallarta doesn’t sweat
the small stuff. First of all, their new governor is pro-tourism
and investment, facilitating federal-state transactions. The
area consistently ranks in the top five vacation destinations in
the country. Investment opportunities, both national and
international, continue to expand over time.
South
Shore Real Estate:
Combine the boundless green jungle with the surf-splashed rocks
of a coast interspersed with private coves, add a place to view
the constantly changing palette of the bay, and you have the
South Shore, where rugged, low-density residences, as well as
villas and other homes, dot the coastline on the curving road
toward Barra de Navidad.
Amapas/Conchas
Chinas Real Estate:
Some say the best view in all of Banderas Bay is from the hills
of Conchas Chinas. For many, that’s the primary reason for
living in this exclusive zone just south of Vallarta’s South
Side. The entire area of Conchas Chinas, whether it’s the
beachfront or the hillside or closer Amapas, is the most
exclusive residential area on the coast.
Gringo
Gulch Real Estate:
Gringo Gulch is the popular name for the neighborhood on the
hill just southeast of downtown overlooking the Cuale River’s
north bank. The name comes from its history of homes built for
foreigners, who began coming to Puerto Vallarta in the early
‘50s. This very Mexican neighborhood continues to be popularwith
the foreign community today.
