Plaza de las Armas is the perfect place to start out your day in Downtown Puerto Vallarta. This public square is recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Pencil in time for other sights like Malecon, Playa de los Muertos, and Playa Gemelas to really experience what's on offer in the area.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (14 reviews)
If you truly want to get away, this is the place. Don’t expect nightlife or very much of a day-life outside hiking to the waterfall or sitting on the beach. For me, that was just enough! The room/hut we were in also had a really bad smell of mold though I didn’t see any.
Awesome staff and the breakfast overlooking the ocean was worth it.
