¡Las galletas vamos a Puerto Vallarta! Translation: The Cookies are going to Puerto Vallarta! After much procrastination and the wedding creeping closer (t-minus 2 months), yesterday we booked our honeymoon south of the border to Mexico.
Mr. Cookie and I knew all we wanted after being surrounded with the love of our friends and family on our wedding, was a honeymoon filled with white sandy beaches, picturesque views and peace and quiet! There was a short list: Fiji, Hawaii, and Mexico. Fiji was too long of a flight for a week’s vacation, Hawaii was too expensive, but Mexico was just right! Mr. Cookie had been to Cancun for spring break, but I’ve never been to Mexico. Again, there was a short list: Los Cabos, Zihuatanejo, and Puerto Vallarta. To decide, we literally put all the names in hat and voilà — Puerto Vallarta it was!
With the American dollar in the proverbial crapper, we found that it is heck of a lot cheaper to book the airline and hotel together. We used an online travel website called Suntrips, which Mr. Cookie had used to book his Cancun vacation. We’ll be staying 3 nights and 4 days at the Villa Premiere Hotel and Spa located in Downtown Puetro Vallarta.

I know Miss Avocado just got back from her vacation to Puerto Vallarta. Have any other bees travel south to Puetro Vallarta? Suggestions about activities and/or must-see attractions?

I was going to do a post about the two resorts I stayed at because I thought it might help you choose, but it sounds like you did pretty good all by yourself, I think I’ll still write my little post anyways. I had friends who swam with dolphins and rode ATV’s and LOVED it, so I’ll talk to them and see if they have any reccomendations!
