Where in Puerto Vallarta are you going?
Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR) connects to 12 distinct service zones across the bay and the Riviera Nayarit coast — from the cobblestone streets of Zona Romántica and the marinas of Marina Vallarta to the surf town of Sayulita and the gated resorts of Punta Mita. Pick your zone below for the exact drive time from PVR, the hotels we serve there, and an all-inclusive one-way rate. Every transfer is a private vehicle for your group only — never a shared shuttle, never a per-seat fare.
Boca de Tomatlán
The fishing cove at the end of the south coastal road — water-taxi gateway to Yelapa, Las Ánimas, and Quimixto.
Bucerías
A laid-back beach town north of the airport known for its long golden beach, art walk, and Sunday market.
Conchas Chinas
A rocky, boutique neighborhood just south of town — cliff-hugging villas and quiet beachfront boutique hotels.
La Cruz de Huanacaxtle
A marina village and the gateway to Punta Mita — a renowned Sunday farmers market and a working fishing harbor.
Lo de Marcos
A tranquil beach village north of San Pancho — quieter and slower, ideal for a relaxed Riviera Nayarit getaway.
Marina Vallarta
The marina district closest to PVR — luxury resorts, the boardwalk, and the shortest transfer on the bay.
Mismaloya
The famous jungle beach south of Puerto Vallarta — secluded coves, Garza Blanca, and Hotel Mousai.
Nuevo Vallarta
The big Riviera Nayarit resort strip north of PVR — beachfront all-inclusives, marinas, and golf, 20–30 min out.
Punta Mita
The gated luxury peninsula at the north tip of the bay — Four Seasons, St. Regis, Conrad, and W Punta de Mita.
San Pancho
San Francisco, Nayarit — a quiet, artsy beach town just north of Sayulita with a wide, uncrowded surf beach.
Sayulita
The colorful Riviera Nayarit surf town — cobblestone streets, surf breaks, and a bohemian beach scene.
Zona Romántica & Old Town
Downtown Puerto Vallarta: the Malecón, Old Town cobblestones, and the Romantic Zone south of the Cuale river.
Not sure which zone fits your trip? Marina Vallarta and Nuevo Vallarta are the shortest, most built-up resort strips closest to PVR. Zona Romántica and Conchas Chinas sit south of downtown, close to Old Town's restaurants and the Malecón. Mismaloya is the quiet jungle-beach stretch further south, and the Riviera Nayarit corridor — Bucerías, La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Sayulita, Punta Mita, and San Pancho — runs north along the bay, ending at Punta Mita's gated luxury resorts. Browse every Puerto Vallarta hotel by zone, or compare a private transfer against a shared shuttle before you book.
