Ooooo how I love Puerto Vallarta ❤️ If you have any questions about PV, let me know. I love to talk about my favorite vacation spot :)
Nice place for sure! Thankyou for doing the tour, it definitely doe not look conducive to people with walkers or wheelchairs!!🙁
How do you film the video while walking? Love seeing where you're vacationing. Looks like you are so happy enjoying being there. @ Welcome to my Curls
Renee, i am horrified of any bird that comes close to me. In P.Vallarta, will they, esp Roosters, come close to my feet? Please don't laugh. I love love birds, geese, and esp little hummingbirds(don't mind them being close to me,) but don't want birds flying close to me. Please advise.
Also, another quick question...with all the dogs there(and I love them,) but reality is reality. They poo. So, how do you feel comfortable running your feet thru the sand? At Myrtle Beach, S.C., I no longer will EVER go barefoot anymore, and I used to LOVE the sand between on toes and on my feet.
What's a good condo to rent and when's the best time to go for a visit? Love your channel❤
11:50 *Some of those sculptures are made by a famous Mexican artist named Sergio Bustamante. He has an art gallery in Vallarta. The arches came from a hacienda in Guadalajara. The seahorse was the first sculpture in Vallarta.* I ❤ PV
Wonderful trip to breakfast !
Thanks for all the great tips! Very useful info.
I enjoyed this so much. Glad I have you back.
Thank you for taking us on your morning walk. I can’t wait to visit.
That was a lot of fun, Renee - It was so nice of you to make this beautiful video for us and a great walk. I have been to Cabo San Lucas, Manzanillo and Barra de Navidad but now I want to go to Puerto Vallarta. Looking forward to seeing the condo you stayed at.
I have been to Cabo San Lucas also.....nice there too but lacking the vibes of PV :)
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS Yes - PV seems to have a great vibe :)
Really informative video, thank you so much for sharing 🥰
Thank you for the tour enjoyed it's so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ive been binge watching videos about PV and yours are the best!! Keep it up!
Great video. I just love your channel. Thank you again for all your videos 🙂❤️
This was such a helpful and wonderful video!
Seems like a wonderful place to holiday,I Love how Dog friendly it is
Wow you know your way around so good!!!
I have been to Puerto Vallarta twice...but, haven't been back in over 25 years...😳 It was always beautiful...& always had a great time. 👍😊 I love the sound of the ocean. 😍👍🌊
I actually love Montana winters but getting to take the walk through Puerto Vallarta with you today was a real treat....
Awww thanks for walking with me!
Wonderful video ! Thank you ☺️
Love Puerto Vallarta, love your videos!
Thank you for such an informative video! I feel like I've watched hundreds of videos about PV and no one has mentioned the (lack of) trash and the beach water.
Thank you for sharing your vacation ! Will never be able to go there, but so interesting to see. Have missed seeing you these past few weeks. Glad you can go and enjoy!
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video 💗
Thanks for posting
Interesting place but not peaceful. You are an excellent tour guide. Loved taking the walk with you. I loved your Panama City vacation video because I love Florida. Renee you would love my western Michigan shoreline. It has stunning views and rocks galore. Beaches are great in summer.
Beautiful Renee! Thank you for the beautiful tour! 👍🏻❤️
Aloha Renee
This is such a wonderful surprise ❤
Tess and I are planning a long trip to Puerto Vallarta next year. Our first time in Mexico. We've fallen for PV and know it will be a great fit for us 🇺🇸
You guys really know your way around!!
Thank You that was GREAT
You wore me out I would walk all the way downtown and take a cab back up hill Sure looks like a beautiful place with lots of things to do thank you again but I bet you miss your doggies. Love those pups
Looks so relaxing. Would love to go but the trip from Aus is a deterrent. We have lots of great places closer to home but perhaps one day.
I made the mistake of brushing my teeth with the tap water in Malta on holiday there once. I did not drink it but mistakenly brushed my teeth with it. Only other time I was that ill was when I contracted bovine salmonella. I was working with calf's... weaning them off of milk onto cattle cake.
Renee it looks like you and Randy had a wonderful break. Looks lovley there xxx
Thanks Renee for kindlyanswering my 'trivial' queries about the valentine baking video. Ive just written a longer note by pressing the reply button
Great video, very informative, thank you! Would love to visit one day soon!
Oh you absolutely should! Puerto Vallarta is wonderful :). More video to come!
Thanks for sharing Renee☀️🌺🌈❤️
I am so loving your videos of how wonderful pv it. I really need to visit you make it so easy. I am also someone who has embraced my grey hair but have wavy hair instead of your curly
Renee that’s looks sooo nice and the apartment looks really nice I’ve already watched that video , I will check out your day one ❤️
Come to Wildwood Crest NJ.....#1 beach in NJ! Beautiful huge sandy white beaches! Big tourist destination in the summer!
Enjoyed the walk ❤.
Our favorite vacation destination. My husband has been going there for about 40 years, I have spent the last 19 winter/springs and sadly missed going 2021 and 2022. The last seven years we were in condos right between Daiquiri Dicks and Coco Tropical...
Good morning Precious! Loved the tour! I can see why y’all love it so! Fyi...still no notification of upload. Hope you have a great weekend!
Hi Susie!!! Darn it on the notifications! I've been working with CZcams on this issue. Apparently they though my channel had been hijacked because they didn't recognize the IP address I was using while in Mexico. It's a whole big story. Anyway....the only way to work through it is to simply continue to post videos on a regular basis until CZcams establishes that I'm back in the US (which apparently takes up to 10 days). In the meantime....there isn't anything I can do unfortunately. So....fingers crossed that this gets resolved soon!
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS sorry you’re having such a time, hopefully they’ll get the kinks worked out...gotta have my WTMC fix....will find you 😊
Would have never considered MX. but love this vid. Would consider it now❤️ BTW…..love the lavender gym shoes
Thanks you my friend
The farmer market is amazing, had no idea
If you don’t mind really hot and humid in the summer, rainy season in June and on and hurricanes
Renee, you could have an ice cream shop there! 🍦🍨
OMG, I'VE SEEN 3 VIDEOS AND THEY'RE FANTASTIC ! ! ! I WANT THAT TURTLE PURSE HE'S SELLING ! ! !
Beautiful place to do some shore fishingk 😇😇😇
Great information! Other than the tap water and ice...are there precautions one should take with fresh uncooked foods such as tomatoes, lettuce, salsas etc that have been likely washed with tap water? Im always curious about that. Thank you for your fun videos documenting your trip there!
You told us a lot about your area of PV which I loved seeing. It would not be for me or my husband. I am older than you and have back problems and now a broken ankle!!! Hate it!!! We do love Clearwater Beach, Florida and also Hilton Head which we are hoping to go next summer of 2022. I am a subscriber and get notified thru my Face Book. Hope your trip home was not too bad and I bet your dogs are all over you!! I look forward to your other videos.
You are probably right....PV isn't for you with a broken ankle! The streets and sidewalks there are incredibly hard to walk on. Our trip home was fine. Pollux and Maxxie were so glad to see me ❤️
This is so cool 😎.
Thanks! I love PV.....will be here again soon!
Enjoyed the video very much! I love seeing other cultures - I bet seeing all those dogs makes you miss Maxxie and Pollux! On a different note, youtube still didn't inform me of this video. I'm a subscriber too. Facebook did let me know however, and that reminded me to search for your video on youtube. Wake up youtube - Rene is home from Mexico now!
It's a whole thing......CZcams did not like me changing countries. I'm working with one of their technicians to get the notification issue resolved but it's taking FOREVER! Each communication with them takes about 24 hours. Geez 😫 But this is the 2nd video I've posted since being back in the US so I'm hoping things get resolved soon. Just know that I post new videos every Tuesday and Friday at 8am CST so keep checking back. AND......if you kindly would let me know when you DO start getting notifications again, I would great appreciate it. I can't see that data on my end until a video has been published for 3 days so I rely greatly on my wonderful subscribers to keep me informed ❤️
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS Will do!
but it came back to me as can't be delivered. Mystery! I will continue when I have a minute to see your latest video about your recent hols in mexico
I’d love to be there with you. Looks wonderful. TFS👍🏾💯❤️. Hugz
It was wonderful.....I absolutely love Puerto Vallarta 🇲🇽
Who's keeping your boys??? I know Maxxie and Pollux are missing y'all. Thanks for the tour of PV!
My husband and I did our honeymoon in Puerta Vallarta. That was over 20 years ago, so I don't know if it's different now or just different because of where we stayed, but we learned very quickly to tell everyone that approached us that it was our last day because so many who approached us wanted you to tour a timeshare the next day. They had nice gifts if you would go to the timeshare presentation, and we did go to one and got a free jeep rental for a day, but it did take us all day long (the timeshare presentation) and lots of rejecting hard-sell techniques. My husband is good at saying no, otherwise we wouldn't have gone. We did enjoy our day with the free Jeep, though, and went up into the mountains and saw a small zoo (got a picture of my hubby sitting next to a lion with a fence in between, of course), and watched some waterfall diving that was incredibly scary, but just had an awesome time.
I have never been approached on the beach about a timeshare. Hmmm...wonder if that's more prevalent near in the North area where the larger chain hotels and timeshares are located. We stay in the Romantic Zone so the vibe is a little different. Most vendors are selling food, trinkets, etc...which I actually enjoy :)
who watches the pups. have the best time
PUERTO VALLARTA looks like a cool place.
It's absolutely wonderful PV. Can't wait to go back :)
So beautiful
i love love dog friendly places
Once upon a time I use to go to Mexico once or twice a year, Cancun, Cozumel, Puerto Vallarta, and once loved Acapulco. You mentioning don’t be fooled by the front of a place. One year I booked a hotel in Cozumel, was the Princess Cozumel. Well we arrived at night and I thought welI I got a terrible hotel, and we were staying two weeks. Well when we went inside it was absolutely gorgeous. Unbelievable. But I always liked going all inclusive. Seeing your video reminded me of what I’m missing.
I fell many times over the years on those streets...
We go to PV every winter. It's my favorite place in Mexico. We've vacationed in all of the big name places but kept coming back to PV. It has such a wonderful vibe...and I just feel right at home there. I didn't want to come home! Randy even told me I could stay a couple of more weeks...but I hated to send hime home by himself. Oh well 🙄. I'll be back there again soon :)
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS I don't think you would have wanted to stay longer, without Randy there, as well. Probably feel lonely.
🏝
We are thinking about vacationing this summer, what place you recommend that is close to the beach and reasonably priced?
THANK YOU... it's been 41 years since I'd been there🥰. Boy its grown😳. Is the home of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton still there? Really brought back memories. Have to get my husband there now🤔.
In fact it is! We had brunch there one Sunday morning...it was absolutely lovely ❤️
Hey Renee, I am new to your channel. I started watching you when you and family got Pollets( not sure I spelled his name right), but anyhow do yal stay at the same condo every time you go?????
I'm hoping to make PV my perment place to live 💕💕
Ahhh, this video failed to appear on my 'Today' list of videos to watch. Thank goodness I know you post early on Fridays so I checked on your channel. Just letting you know.
Hi! CZcams didn't like me accessing my channel from Mexico and locked me out. I've been working with CZcams on this issue. Apparently they though my channel had been hijacked because they didn't recognize the IP address I was using while in Mexico. It's a whole big story. Anyway....the only way to work through it is to simply continue to post videos on a regular basis until CZcams establishes that I'm back in the US (which apparently takes up to 10 days). In the meantime....there isn't anything I can do unfortunately. So....fingers crossed that this gets resolved soon! I do post videos every Tuesday and Friday morning at 8am CST.....so please continue to let me know if you are/aren't receiving notifications. I can't see the data on my end until the video has been live for 3 full days 🥺
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS Thank you for your response ... I figured it was a CZcams thing as our Renee promised she'd have a video for her sub family ... LOL
I think I would love that place! Please someone could tell me about hotels?
11:01 *FYI: It is considered Rude and Tacky not to greet others in Mexico, yes even strangers. When visiting Mexico one must Remember to always say in Spanish: Hello, How are you?, Good morning, Good Evening, Good Night, Please & Thank you. Wish people here in the US were as friendly.* ☺️ PS In PV wear sandals & sneakers, it's Not a place for high heels 🚫👠 unless you are at din in a resort. Be careful where you step because you can trip 😳
how many pesos does a couple need on a daily basis? Just to eat and hang out. Looking to find out how many pesos to bring before we go. Thanks for your recommendations
Can you recommend places to stay?? Thank you for this video...been wanting to stay there for years!! Also, about how much do you recommend in pesos? Do you find you use credit / debit cards are used in most places?
Hi Jackie!!! I have a video coming out about the condo we rented. I'm giving you a condo tour, sharing the locations, and rental details. That should be out soon. I have the video completed....but I was just waiting on CZcams to fix my channel. And we've rented different condos in different neighborhoods so I can give you some more info if needed. Look for the condo video to come out then get back with me if you need. Thanks!
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS thank you!!
What part do you go to
I love Puerto Vallarta . I use to go quite often but I heard the crime rate has risen drastically and now I’m afraid to go.
You shouldn't be afraid! I've never felt unsafe in Puerto Vallarta.
Well, there's been lots of shootings here in USA lately ... And we're still here 🤔🤷
Have you ever had any mishaps while vacationing there?
How safe is it to be out at night? Is there a curfew for the beach?
It's perfectly safe at night. I've never felt unsafe anytime in PV. We walk everywhere we go....including to dinner at night. That being said, we are usually home by 11pm 😂 There was a beach curfew of 3pm but that was lifted on Feb 12th...and honestly it really only pertained to the restaurants having to remove tables and beach chairs by 3pm. There were always plenty of people on the beach watching the sunset and such. We usually stayed out there till 4ish each day ourselves :)
♥️🥰🏖🌴🏖😎Chris 🥀
I just watched this again, and some of those chairs have butt cheeks 🤣🤣
Have to say I didn't find it too attractive (JMO). I much preferred your Florida setup. Just curious, is one place less expensive to stay than the other?
We go to Florida each fall and Puerto Vallarta each winter. Puerto Vallarta is much less expensive for almost everything....food, condo rental, activities, etc.
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS I kinda figured that was the case. BTW Pollux in the snow was great stuff. The look of the Mexican beach, and your backyard in KY reminded me of where I live, (summer and winter) except we get a lot more snow.
🥰
@@jethro1963 Quick question....did you receive a notification from CZcams when I released this video earlier today? I'm having an issue with CZcams not sending notifications.
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS I'm not a subscriber but I did see a notification that you replied to my first comment (twice)
We are planning a three month stay in PV. Is there a way to contact you for info? Tks in advance
Hi! You can email me at welcometomycurls@gmail.com 😊
nice video,,but so many better,preetier,, cleaner safer coastal places in USA
What a workout!
I love it! Had a 3 mile walk every morning....then we also walk everywhere we go. It's great!
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS was that 3 miles total or one way? Either way you Rocked it!
@@susiedavis4560 3 miles total....all uphill LOL
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS Girlfriend!! You got it going on!!👍
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS Uphill oh my gosh 😲
Weren’t you nervous to fly there and be there with Covid.?
Not at all! We took safety precautions as did everyone we were around. Airports are very secure with strict protocol. Mexico actually has stricter rules than the US....and it was very much appreciated.
How difficult would it be to get around in a wheelchair?
Honestly....it would be difficult. The sidewalks are an absolute mess with level changes everywhere. And Puerto Vallarta is in the hills so everything is on a steep sloop. Probably not the easiest place for someone in a wheelchair.
where on the map are you when you were walking there ?
I walked down Olas Altas and the Malecon
@@WELCOMETOMYCURLS and how far of a walk is that one way? Hard to figure distances just looking at that map
What can't you take back home: food or etc.?
Are you referring to USA's rules of prohibiting fruit, vegetables, meat, flowers, etc?
I'm curious why people are walking around outside with masks on? Even in Mexico?
I’m not getting any of your videos.
You need to check out Peggy Halll The Healthy American and Living Swell CZcams channel. 😷
I'm sure you love it Rene but I don't want to go to a place with garbage strewn streets and dirty beach water.
but sand looks dirty
Your channel and others also got cancelled.
but its alllll tourists
You need to learn to speak with a more Spanish accent, lol. Great video.
If you moved to Fort Lauderdale you would have this every day
The beach venders spoil the beach enjoyment .. no thank you does not work . Your pestered non stop the entire time you are there .. its gotten out of control ... bummer !
breathing in your waste in very bad for your health !
I am not a fan of anything Mexico. Sorry. It's beautiful and warm, but I can't handle the garbage, the water and the people constantly pestering you on the beach. No thank you.
The good greatly outweighs the bad when it comes to Puerto Vallarta. Yes....there are some things that could be improved on. But overall, it's a lovely wonderful city. New video coming out tomorrow in fact! Stay tuned!
