Guys meant Conchas Chinas, not Cochas Chinas! My bad!

[@elgransuizo]

Thanks for this informative video! I'm afraid that Conchas Chinas won't be so calm for long after this video. Lots of people saw your video and word will get around.

[@DustinsTravels]

@@elgransuizo Lol thank you!

[@toolrocks10]

Staying at hotel pescador hoping to have easy access to conchas chinas? Yes?

[@shaunajohnson3335]

Where are you staying in this video. I hear the waves...that's what I want

[@harveyschwartz6789]

I like the way you look and your voice-easy to hear and understand and you speak with authority and personality and down to earth...

[@georgeharleydavidsonrider156]

I just spent some time in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. I stayed at the Fiesta Americana. I like the climate the beaches the mountains and the people and the food. I’ve been to Puerto Rico and Aruba but they do not compare to Mexico. The people in Mexico are very respectful especially to foreigners. Puerto Vallarta is a very safe city during the day and at night. I actually made friends with a local family there and he is a doctor. I really enjoyed my stay in Puerto Vallarta and I would really like to live there one day permanently.

[@beaubritton2125]

Los Arcos is my favorite place in Zona Romantica. Los Arcos Suites is in a quite spot and a lot of Mexicans vacation at Los Arcos Suites. Cassa Susana is across the street from Los Arcos Suites and it has a wonderful rooftop pool with great views. Both the Los Arcos Hotel, the Los Arcos Suites and Cassa Susan are owned by the same company and you can swim at all of them.

[@RedroomStudios]

I'm planning to stay in Puerto Vallarta for an extended period time at some point this year... been watching hundreds of videos but yours is a really nice summary all in one place! the cinematic quality of your location video is fantastic! I know I am going to be referring back to this many times, just for the sheer enjoyment of it! dreaming of the time that I'll be there...

[@DustinsTravels]

awesome! Thank you so much for that feedback! I'm glad it was helpful!

[@mariainiguez5447]

If you're interested in staying in Boca de Tomatlan, I highly recommend checking out what's availible in Mismoloya too.

Great video, I really like it, thank you so much👍

[@1dktre]

Good info, very helpful!

Very useful, thank you!

[@MrGreggles77]

Very informative, thanks 🙏 ☺️

[@poetic.voyage]

Thanks! This was really helpful. I'm seriously considering spending next winter in Mexico and this area looks great. :)

[@mauriciochavez914]

Do it take a cab out to boca de tomatlan and catch a boat ride with my friend oscar he's got a boat

[@DustinsTravels]

That sounds like a wonderful idea!

[@jessmndza_]

Very informative, gracias!

[@arielsilva1793]

[@domceja62]

Great video man

[@Sultan88888]

Nuevo is a resort area as well as having hotels. There r/was a few good restaurants there. Eddies place, the pink house, alcatrazes, Blue Shrimp, la baracuda to name a few. 🤗😎

[@almanfredonia]

we just came back from conchas chinas. Stayed at an airbnb condo in front of the beach, the best sunsets ever!! My son and his cousin went to sayulita for 4 days. They stayed at a hostel called The Amazing Hostel. He loved it and is planning on coming back in April (2022) to watch the surfing contest. Thanks for this well done video!!

[@RAY-uh3np]

Can you post what air bnb condo? As well, can you swim in the ocean there? Thank you,

[@almanfredonia]

@@RAY-uh3np his airbnb: Front Beach Apartment recently remodel in 2019 in Conchas Chinas . Hostess name is Enrique. And you can swim in the ocean. Very safe, beautiful and private. Hope i was able to answer your questions.. 😊

[@sd6458]

Great job thanks 😊

[@tanyanike]

If you are in Nuevo Vallarta you can stay in a nice all inclusive hotel and still safely take a taxi to downtown Puerta Vallarta. We did it twice while there with out a problem.

[@anncochenour9920]

We stayed at the most romantic hotel ever. Villa Lala

[@lencrites7044]

Great video

[@eliasgomez6689]

Good int brother tank for visiting my homeland nice video

[@DustinsTravels]

Thank you! It’s beautiful here

[@liznaranjo7994]

Thanks, that was helpfull! I'm going for 3 months, not at all familiar.

[@leckmanj]

Enjoyed the video Dustin, enjoyed your video. a couple of comments...I didn't hear you mention city buses at all. We pretty much take city buses everywhere except when going between Nuavo and downtown..they're inexpensive and reliable. Also, we've stayed in Buccerias and loved it..tons of restaurants and local delicious street vendors

[@DustinsTravels]

very cool, The cabs were so cheap we mostly did cabs there. I think we did the bus a couple times to experience it.

[@bigggdoggg2147]

Thanks for the video. It was very informative. Me and my fiancé are going to get married there soon! I love you Ana!!! Love ANTHONY 😘💋❤💯

[@suefrench8721]

Check for busses. You can take a bus from the highway in Boca all the way to Sayulita for about 3 to 8 pesos. They are a good way to get around without renting a car. A bit bumpy sometimes but it's good fun.

[@msfuqua16]

Thank you soooooo muuch!!!!

[@waynevandermeer3139]

These are always nice to watch before coming. I’m coming for the month of February for rhe first time. Staying in Bucerias. Have you been there. ? Does it compare to Sayulita?

[@jamijenson4040]

I enjoy your informative videos! What month is the best month to go to Puerto Vallarta. When did you go in this video? Thank you 😊 I realize this says 1 year ago, which could be March. But, I was watching another vlogger's video, that says a year ago, which clearly wasn't, because they showed a decorated, Christmas tree in Puerto Vallarta. I want to go when the whales & dolphins are present, & hopefully, the temperature isn't unbearably hot.

[@MarkHumphreysChannel]

Amazing video. Thanks for sharing this! Would you say that your whole stay you felt safe?

[@DustinsTravels]

Oh yes PV is very safe! Obviously pay attention and be aware but overall very safe place

[@edgars8947]

Punta de Mita is so exclusive you even probably don't know it is in the same bay, just to give you an idea a former Apple VP is selling his house there on 20 US Million. Bucerías, Cruz de Huanacaxtle and San Pancho are also nice little towns to stay at.

[@DanielaPerez-yp1gb]

MEGA TOP 🤣🔝👌I LOVE IT GREETINGS THANK'S

[@crowe5130]

Thank you!

[@lillyblanco7139]

Gracias 🙏

[@danarrell4936]

Nice video! Will be staying at Hotel Mio in Hotel Zone in a week. Lots of great reviews, great price! So hope it's good. Going to day trip to Sayulita based on your suggestion! Thanks!

[@witkti0525]

Booked this hotel for June. Curious how you felt about the location in terms of going to popular areas?

[@rodeo8825]

Keep an eye on you valuables at any beach especially in Saulita! They will go missing.

[@moniqueconnors2838]

Great content!! How is the weather in December and January?I love the sun, I was informed it’s in the low 80 and the water is cold during those months. Is that true

[@DustinsTravels]

It's the best time to go! It's very hot in the summer, but perfect weather in winter... maybe a little cold at night, but not too bad

[@bimo5401]

beautiful place my friend greetings from indonesia

[@DustinsTravels]

Thanks and welcome!

[@georgep1358]

Great video any advise on Permanent residency into Mexico ?

[@toolrocks10]

Very helpful. Staying at hotel El pescador hoping I can easily get to conchas chinas. Conchas chinas open to walk to?

[@xiube6979]

Very informative. Just wonder if they rent motorbike in PV. Any collectivo services between the areas. Thx!

[@DustinsTravels]

Yea I’m sure you can do that 👍

[@michellechavez1211]

Hi! What area would you recommend for a Bachelorette trip? Looking for a mix of relaxation and partying.

[@jesus_barrita]

Amazing video, congrats! I just have a question. Is public access to the beach in Marina? Or Where is the best area to have direct access to beach?

[@DustinsTravels]

almost everywhere has direct access to the beach so long as you're near the beach! There aren't any places where you can't access the beach unless you're in Nuevo Vallarta. Might be harder to get in there if you're not a guest or going to a restaurant

[@chriskeech2891]

How would I find a place to rent long term in Sayulita? Online/Realtor? Any suggestions?

[@HoffaJedi]

ANDALES!!!!

[@berthagarcia3836]

are there any covid Restrctions as soon as you show up? as in like being quarantined Period.

[@DustinsTravels]

Nope not at all! Sometimes you wear masks when walking into restaurants

[@fundamental1020]

Dustin, can you discuss costs for renting for like 3 months ( US winter).

[@DustinsTravels]

Depends where you stay. I met someone who stayed in PV for a year for $5k USD. Another person for about $10k-$15k. You won’t get beachfront but still can find spots like that

[@hectorappertie.6944]

From $500 per month to about $3500 per month beach front

[@ShelbyA2LA]

I will be in the hotel zone , but will be taking a Uber to romantic zone thank you ☺️ great info

[@adriajenkins-harper9706]

I was also wondering if they had Uber or Lyft there

[@DustinsTravels]

@@adriajenkins-harper9706 there are cabs everywhere and pretty cheap... I didn’t feel the need to use Uber, although I do believe they have Uber

[@ShelbyA2LA]

Yes, there is a uber . There was no money exchange accept tips.

[@adriajenkins-harper9706]

@@DustinsTravels thanks but I prefer Uber or Lyft so I know fare ahead of time and can track via app. Not a fan of cabs unless ONLY option

[@arribaficationwineho32]

@@adriajenkins-harper9706 we use cabs every time we go and never have an issue with pricing. Of course we can’t track them but there is no problem finding one in town. P,us they are always at hotels

[@lly56]

How did you get to Hotelito Mio?

[@stuartlee6622]

What about Gringo Gulch??

[@trillthomasg]

Where is best to stay if you want to be close to the clubs?

[@DustinsTravels]

The clubs in the city? Probably Romantic Zone

[@burtamor]

Hi Dustin ! I am planning to stay there for 6 months, (no Visa) Can I get an apartment or AIRBNB for 300 dollars a month? Which one Malecon or Zona Romantica? Thanks !

[@DustinsTravels]

That might be pushing it lol... but probably around there or a little bit higher

[@arribaficationwineho32]

If you are willing to stay a little out of that area you can do it. Still walk to town. Up the hills a little

[@heathertucker8479]

🙋‍♀️🇨🇦do you have any recommendations for a small and affordable resorts in th Hotel Zone. I have stayed@ Krystal.

[@DustinsTravels]

not sure sorry!

[@LuisGonzalez-dn4cz]

Sayulita Nayarit is the best place of all, highly recommended.

[@DustinsTravels]

Yea it was awesome

[@lupitacajero7185]

Is it hilly like PV? I have one family member in a wheelchair.

[@robertverrege8202]

Very crowded, very noisy with some crime the beaches are not great but many good restaurants. Concha’s Chinas I agree is perfect for me.

[@elgransuizo]

Crime? Visit Santo Domingo or Bogota...then we can talk about crime.

[@JabbaQuestMania]

Does Puerto Vallarta only use pesos or US currency as well?

[@messielchakaloso]

Both

[@DustinsTravels]

I would use pesos. They may not give bear exchange rate with dollars

[@dustinnash5411]

Well good evening everyone! Hope all is well. Ok can someone please help me get there!!? 🤔

[@felixolivarez]

Dudeeee! Im fuvkin love your beautiful white bright teeth 😍😍😍😍

[@komalp1967]

So you get rental cars there or you use Uber or whatever they have Taxis

[@DustinsTravels]

taxi is super easy and cheap

[@sidsaxena2880]

No rents ?

[@ydegaston]

Hello! Is it safe to take Uber in MX? Is it the same app, we use un US?

[@elgransuizo]

UBER in Puerto Vallarta is no problem. I can't talk for other parts in Mexico.

[@ydegaston]

@@elgransuizo ty! I already went to PV and had no issues! It was safe and easy to use ☺️. I definitely recommend it.

[@Trapper50cal]

Garza Blanca - You're welcome.

[@yupperdude1]

Hotel Barcelo if you want all inclusive….

[@stevemc1790]

Los Enemas? Why would i want to stay at a beach called Los Enemas?

See you latuh? 😀

dozens of bloggers reporting on Puerto Vallarta, none of them know how to pronounce it properly....
