Hello All:
My daughter and I are looking forward to returning to PV right after Christmas.聽聽I will stay a month.聽聽She will return to college聽 after two weeks.聽聽Our last stay was in Old Town...which we LOVE.聽聽But our place was on a busy street and hard to sleep at times.聽聽 Still, it was affordable.聽聽Large 2-br for $1,000 USD and just 7 blocks from the beach.聽聽Secure and had internet, w/d, and a community pool.

We would like to have the something along similar lines.聽聽聽Can anyone out there suggest?聽聽I have tried a couple of real estate places... Dreams Vallarta and Panchos Villas.聽聽Even AirBnB.聽聽Many of these rates have now gone聽 up considerably.

Looking forward to hearing from you.聽聽 We are quiet and tidy.聽聽 So... if YOU have a place for us, please do get in touch.

Thanks,
Arlene

You might want to look in the housing section on this page at the top. I see there is a villa in PV for 600.

Hi -
I checked that out.聽聽I think it's a typo.聽聽I have contacted the owner.聽聽 Also, too far south.聽聽Would rather be in Old Town, city center, or a bit up towards hotel zone.
Are there any local papers or sites I can check?
Thanks,
Arlene

Hi Ruby,
Here are some sources.

If it were I , I would be searching booking.com. My travels often involve searching with them. You can screen for costs and locations, as well as rental properties in many places. Buena suerte.

Hi, I think the best would be to contact some rental agency directly, tell them what you are looking for, they have contacts with other agency and will be able to help you.

One major concern could be the period till after the 1st of January.

A few agencies I called before were Puerto Vallarta rentals, PV paradise rentals and Puerto Vallarta condo rentals a few years ago, give them a call or e-mail

One place I know that you can check, you better call because of the period you need sometimes the internet site says no availability "estancia San Carlos en Puerto Vallarta".

Buena suerte, GyC.

That is going to be a tough time of the year, if I were you I would just book a condo or hotel quickly.
Everything will slow to a crawl soon with the holidays . You are right you must book very early for holidays. If I am trying for a big holiday I usually book a year out.

Any time in Dec- January is holiday here not just聽 Christmas eve, Christmas day and new years eve and new years day like in the states.
It moves from independence to dia de los muertos, various church festivals into Christmas season, the three kings and new years. It gets harder and harder to book from October on
