Fun Things: Check out Vallarta Adventures brochure and other brochures at the PV Resort building (Tikal). This is the three-wing building. This is the main check-in/check-out for the Resort (not for Playa Royale unless you arrive late). Also located are car rental, currency exchange, trips, coffee/snack, bar, concierge and more. For assistance with all your fun activities contact Theresa Racine (she has always assisted us in finding activities. If she can’t then she will refer you to external contact). If you try the dune buggy trip – plan to get dirty. Bring old t-shirt (not white), jean shirts, plastic bag for your camera (you will get wet), sun glasses that hugs your face (a lots of dust) and bandanna (to cover your mouth). Great fun!! Teresa is a great source for restaurants and babysitters. Water Taxi – travel from the PV Resort to the downtown marina in Puerto Vallarta. Approx $12 USD/person (2006)

Taxi: Service from the Airport is approx 150 pesos (June 06 prices). The return from the Hotel is cheaper. Some additional general info (contact us for website) Airports are federal zones by Mexican law. So, while any taxi can take you to the airport, only airport-authorized taxis (white) can take you from the airport to your destination. Regular (i.e., yellow) taxis are not allowed to pick up passengers at or near the airport. Flat rates for the airport-authorized taxis are pre-established by zone and paid in advance at the airport. Expect to pay a much higher rate when using an airport taxi, as compared to a regular taxi. Tipping the driver is not necessary, unless you expect him to assist you with your luggage at your destination. Alternatively, Puerto Vallarta's urban bus lines heading north and south make regular stops on the main road next to the airport.

Social Membership: Is a fixed fee for a family. Guests will be required to contact Adrian Becerra at the Paradise Village Golf & Country Club to pay the Social Membership fee. This will entitle the “guest(s)” to use all the facilities at the resort, i.e., gym, spa facilities and golf course. Please note some items ( massage, golf , etc) are fee based. Most guest arrivals occur on Saturday. Since the membership office is closed on Saturday and Sunday, photos for the Social Id card, can not be taken. As such, sending the digital pics to Adrian prior to arriving (at least a week in advance) will expedite the process of obtaining the ID card. Please send him “jpeg” photos of yourself and each family member. This will save some time in processing. After arriving, you need to use the shuttle to complete the process at the Country Club, i.e. payment and pickup your ID. Please identify the arrival and departure and the Playa Royale unit number that you will be staying.
