Retiring in Vallarta

For decades now, Puerto Vallarta has been considered the ideal retirement destination by Canadian and U.S. residents. Blessed by its location between the Sierra Madres and Banderas Bay, on Mexico’s pacific coast, the sun and breezes are not all that make this idyllic climate on of the best places in the world to retire.

Puerto Vallarta is only a 3-hour flight from Los Angeles and up to 5 hours from most major US and Canadian cities. The area has become home to several thousands of North Americans who have chosen it over many other beach destinations. In 2010, AARP members voted Puerto Vallarta the “best destination in the world.”

Puerto Vallarta is on the same latitude as Hawaii and has an almost perfect climate year-round, with an average daily temperature of 73°F/23°C from May to November with virtually no chance of rain, and summer temperatures of 87°F/28.5°C, with refreshing rain showers almost every evening.

Vallarta boasts a truly international, cosmopolitan population, thanks to its location, climate, multilingual and multicultural status, and international airport. Its ever-increasing infrastructure includes a maritime terminal, several excellent hospitals, private and public clinics, culture and arts and high-speed Internet.

Most importantly, it offers a home to many foreigners retiring in Mexico, who have created a network of social activities and dynamic lifestyle--you may never want to go “home” again!
