Twinsmania!: Puerto Vallarta Part 1

Spring Break rarely brings travel for us but 2022 was different! We found ourselves counting the days to our trip to Puerto Vallarta! The Hyatt Ziva was a our home for a week and we enjoyed a large room, incredible food, and the best quarter mile stretch of beach in the area! Good planning had us traveling out early Saturday and maximized our time to chill out!

A short early flight meant we were enjoying lunch by 130pm and on the magnificent beach by 2!

Views:

Directly West - somebody should move those palm trees - they are blocking the ocean!

South

We were conveniently located on the 2nd floor

The original hotel built in 1961

Main building filled with restaurants & shopping

The Mexican Restaurant

Mom & Dad never set foot in the pool but the girls did

Other grounds ambience

Just South of the Hyatt was a gorgeous 6 level home built to maximize the amazing sunsets & ocean views

Luxury homes built on the hillside

As much as we enjoyed lounging we mostly stayed active, repeatedly walked the quarter mile ocean stretch and stopped for some occasional hijinx

Twins!

On our 1st full day we built a sizable castle and protective wall

It withstood several wave hits but fell victim to young vandals when left unattended for several hours

More Pacific Ocean views...

The sunsets were awesome and we watched each one - we took many photos but this was one of my favorites

After sunsets we headed out to dinner - the Mexican Restaurant was our favorite and we ate there twice! The 1st time there was a 10 person table next to us had multiple former "Bachelorette" contestants (Mom overhead that!)
