Melaque Mexico

Are you looking for the best place to live in Mexico? Are you thinking about a Melaque vacation? Are you thinking about visiting Melaque Mexico? If you have answered yes to any of these questions, then you are about to see the right video. This video is about Melaque Mexico.
In this video, we will be in Melaque Jalisco Mexico. For us, it was a four night Melaque vacation. We wanted to make a video that showed people that were thinking about renting in Melaque, or perhaps, people wanted to see the Melaque beach, or, people might be thinking about moving to Melaque, thus we thought we would give you a tour of Melaque.
While touring Melaque, that is while touring Melaque Mexico, we spent a lot of time on the Melaque beach. That is all a part of Melaque life. If you are thinking about a Melaque Mexico vacation and you like the beach, then you will see lots of the beach as we are touring Melaque Mexico.
Best Place to live in Mexico? I have lived in Puerto Vallarta, Guadalajara and Chapala, all in Mexico for the last sixteen years. I haven't been all over Mexico, but I must say that Melaque is on my list as far as the best place to live in Mexico.
Melaque is a very small town with a great beach. What's more is Melaque is the cheapest place in Mexico that I have visited. If you are thinking about renting in Melaque, that is, renting in Melaque Mexico, then you are in for a real treat because renting in Melaque is really cheap. We met a guy that was renting a house for $75 a month US. That's just unbelievable.

Hi Bill! My best friend is moving to this town and I´ll be visiting there in the near future. I may actually move there in the future.

[@BillDallasLewis]

I really liked it. Nice vibe.

[@janen2683]

Thanks, Bill. Very interesting! We’re going to do some more research on this area. Love the idea of a beachside, small town 😊

[@BillDallasLewis]

Hi Jane, It's a very nice place. Quiet, friendly, great ocean. I like it. Thanks for the comment, Bill the Geek

[@irisbarratt2911]

me too! Thanks

[@heathermoore-simmons4544]

I was there in 1976 (actually Barra de Navidad) & 1989!I think about those three beachtowns every time I consider a vacation.

[@BillDallasLewis]

Hi Heather, thanks for the comment. I like the place, its not for everyone, but I like it. Best, Bill the Geek

[@vatochingon209]

Guys please don't speed on the MX Roads. There are speed limits and you don't want to give federales any reason to stop (extort) you. There is no version of the autobahn in MX. Great video though.

[@BillDallasLewis]

Great tip!!!!!!! But sometimes I just can't help it.

[@sophiarodgerson5854]

I checked the airb&b, states 119 usd per night..not cheap for me!

[@BillDallasLewis]

Hi Sophia, It was a super great place. It sleeps 4 and has everything. I loved it. Thank you so much for your comment, Bill

[@ivanpatenaude771]

Is Melaque the town next to San Patricio or they considered the same town? Located SE of La Manzanillo? Google has me confused, not hard.😮

[@BillDallasLewis]

You got it just right. And, sometimes Google never shows Melaque, but instead it calls it, San Patrico. Best, Bill

[@ivanpatenaude771]

@BillDallasLewis Thanks for the quick response. Regards ..... Ivan

[@jotsandtittles]

Hi Bill! Great video. Melaque looks like a wonderful beach option. What do you and Theresa do during the hottest months the year? Just stay inside with the A/C? That's what we have to do here in the Southern US. :(

[@BillDallasLewis]

Hi Julie, When I lived in Puerto Vallarta, In the hot months, I would mostly only leave the house in the early mornings and early evenings. My rent included electric, I was paying 8,000 pesos a month at the time. That was about $400.00 US. I cranked the air up so high that I wore sweaters inside the place. I have lived in Guadalajara and Chapala for the last 6 years and in these two places the humidity is zero pretty much. It get hot in the day, but with no humidity, it's great,..right now it's about 85 outside, but in the house it is very cool.. I have a hoddie on right now and sweatpants. I have gotten use to this climate, but the beach is so inviting in Melaque, or Vallarta. Thanks so much for the comment, Bill the Geek

[@jotsandtittles]

@@BillDallasLewis thanks Bill - great info as always. After watching this video, I started researching Melaque and ran up on this tidbit in Wiki: "The sewer treatment plant out near the highway has not operated in some years. The sewage goes into Playa Melaque untreated." Is this correct, or still correct? I'd like to be able to go into the water if living in a beach town.

[@lb9007]

@@jotsandtittles Hi Julie, may I suggest you also ask on a fb group about specific questions. If personally join a specific town fb groups in evaluating a place. You'll get info from expats that have been living in the area sometimes for years and know all about the "little dark secrets" of a place 😉

[@cathybowers4520]

It's just like those of us that live in Alaska or those that live in Arizona those three or four months in the year you stay inside with a C and enjoy the evenings

[@abelv8947]

I went there for the first time 5 years ago... stayed at Cabo Blanco hotel in Barra de Navidad and walked along the beach to Melaque... I fell fell in love with both places... you should check out a very small town called La Manzanilla and Cuastecomate while you are there..

[@BillDallasLewis]

Hi Abel, Great suggestion. We'll have to check that out the next time we go. Great places. Melaque and Barra Navidad. I love them both. Best, Bill

[@cariboocollection]

QUESTION...as a middle aged solo female traveler who is all about the live music and being thrifty... Would you say Barra de Navidad or Melaque would be bet to home base from. Why or why not? Need to make a Devan for accommodations asap! Coming down in early/mid February for 3-5 weeks. Would appreciate your input.

[@BillDallasLewis]

Howdy Solo Female, All I can say is that I really liked it. I think that between Melaque and Barra de Navidad they have it all and it is all very cheap. Also, there are a fare amount of expats there you help you out. I met a couple that had moved there from Canada and they were so happy. It was like they were on drugs, but they weren't. They were so mellow and happy. It is a great place and, it is right on the beach, and, the people there are very friendly. Best, Bill

[@cariboocollection]

@@BillDallasLewis okay thank you... Sounds like 6 of one, half a sudden in the other! Can't go wrong with either one!

[@dennishassler605]

@@BillDallasLewis Yes, thanks for your excellent presentation. I'd visited Melaque a number of times, but there's not a lot to do there it seems. I also like Huatulco and think that's an excellent place, too, with the nine bays and outstanding roads in town - a bit less so on the roads further out. B. de Navidad was torn up by the hurricanes and I'd hate to be there during the storms, but P.V. is protected by the mountains and weathers them better. I have some excellent memories along the coast in Costa Allegra.

[@BillDallasLewis]

@@dennishassler605 Hi Dennis, you're right. There's not much to do there except for the beach. But, I'm a geek and I just like to read, create and go to the beach when I'm there. I'm boring. We don't have cable TV, but we have Netflix, that works with the Washington Post, Google and KZbin, and Amazon for books and buying stuff. I have lots of books on my phone so my mind always has something to do. Thanks much Dennis, Bill the Geek

@@BillDallasLewis Yes, Bill, YOU definitely are a geek and you've got that right in spades, but marvelous you are happy as a person and use your mind - being proficient and comfortable in your own mind results in a better quality of life and willingness to do what would be unusual for some regular people - they can be confined by their own lack of knowledge.

Thank you for another great helpful video. We are planning to rent a place in Ajijic. For six months to a year . Do you have any suggestions as far as a neighborhood? Not close to the church as we don’t really care to listen to the bands all night . We enjoy them in the daytime. Thanks

Hi Janie, Thanks for the comment. Sorry for the slow reply. I don't know if I have told you this but my neighbor is 85 years old, she is great, we know her and her 7 kids very well. Her Daughter, Ana, is in Real Estate here in Ajijic and Chapala. She knows the market very well. Call her and ask her. She can help you find a great place for your stay. She has a Mexico phone number so you will have to use the Mexican country code to call her. Her number is 331 862 2820. That is her cell phone, keep calling until she answers. For what it's worth, here it is Chicago time or CST, on hour behind New York. Try that. Best, Bill the Geek
