Puerto Vallarta/Guadalajara vs last year — has it changed?

Thanks for the detailed write-up. Very helpful for planning my upcoming trip.

100% agree. The quality there is hard to beat.

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Excellent write-up. This is why I love this forum — real, actionable information.

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were higher.

This matches my experience. Puerto Vallarta/Guadalajara is great value for money.

Did you feel safe using taxis?
