The Old Town, or Romantic Zone as it is often called, is a hub of excitement, colour and culture with an authentic Mexican Vibe. From the Cuale River where the main road and pedestrian bridges cross from the Malecon to the end of Los Muerto Beach, the Romantic Zone is characterized for its lively and friendly atmosphere.
A favourite among professional expats and retirees looking to live within the thick of things and boasting a friendly gay community, the Romantic Zone is one of Puerto Vallarta’s most authentic neighbourhoods. Cobblestone streets contrast with newly developed modern condos, Mexican apartment blocks, hotels and beachfront resorts, bars and restaurants to form one of the most colourful and enchanting communities. Here you will enjoy having everything within walking distance: beaches, stores, cafés, bars, restaurants, day spas and a weekly farmer’s market.
