One of the places I’ve most enjoyed staying in Puerto Vallarta is Villa Premiere Hotel & Spa. Part of the pleasure is the size; with only 83 rooms, it’s not crowded like larger resorts, yet it’s big enough to offer plenty of services (including excellent spa treatments). Part of the appeal is the comfortable and peaceful environment (guests can only bring their kids if they’re at least 16 years old). Of course, the big pool and beachfront scenery doesn’t hurt either.
But what I also like is the location. Most of the full-service resort hotels in the Puerto Vallarta area are in master-planned planned developments like Marina Vallarta, which is lovely but not exactly walking distance to anything outside of the complex itself. Premiere’s location in a quiet corner not far from the city’s boardwalk means you can go for walks, and even arrive at the city’s charming center without stepping foot in a bus or cab.
Here are some noteworthy deals now available at Premiere:
• Stay three or more nights and get a free upgrade to the next room category (when available), as well as unlimited complimentary Wi-Fi access in the guest room. (Offer valid for stays through March 27)
• The Winter Package, priced at $269 per room, per night, for two people, includes accommodations in an oceanfront guest room with Jacuzzi, daily American breakfast for two, and a 20% discount on spa treatments (Valid for stays through April 30)
