In this second part of our Puerto Vallarta real estate tour, we continue our journey through some of the city’s most charming and diverse neighborhoods. Whether you’re considering retiring in this beautiful Mexican coastal city or simply curious about the local living options, this is your chance for an insider’s look at residential areas in and out of the tourist hotspots.
Las Gaviotas: A Hidden Gem
Our first stop is Las Gaviotas, a neighborhood that offers a peaceful retreat with spacious houses, large yards, and a sense of tranquility. If you’re a fan of lush greenery and a more suburban vibe, Las Gaviotas might be the place for you. This area has long been favored by Mexican nationals, though it also boasts a significant expat community. Houses here are larger in scale currently start at $594,000 USD and up, making it an excellent option for those looking for a bit more space.
Cinco de Diciembre: Urban Living with Stunning Views
Next, we head to Cinco de Diciembre, an area known for its beautiful hillside properties that offer incredible views of both the ocean and the city. If you’re someone who enjoys panoramic vistas, this is a must-see location. Whether you’re drawn to the charm of the hillside or the convenience of being close to the town, Cinco de Diciembre has something to offer. Two-bedroom condos currently start at $317,000 USD.
El Centro & Gringo Gulch:
Nestled in the heart of Puerto Vallarta, the world-famous El Malecón (The Boardwalk) and the iconic Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe stand as proud symbols of this historic coastal town. Lined with restaurants, boutique shops, and lively bars, the Malecón offers a dynamic mix of culture, history, and entertainment, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
Just beyond the boardwalk, you’ll find a captivating blend of old-world charm and modern convenience. Strolling through the area, you’ll encounter classic Vallarta homes, low-rise apartments, and an array of galleries, artisan shops, and diverse dining options. As you venture further into the hillside, the cobblestone streets lead to more traditional homes, many reflecting the architectural heritage that has defined the region for generations. These neighborhoods embody the soul of Puerto Vallarta, where history and contemporary living harmoniously intertwine. A ocean view three bedroom house currently starts at $599,000 USD.
Amapas: Secluded Hillside Bliss
Lastly, we venture into Amapas, a stunning neighborhood perched in the hills with panoramic views that are nothing short of spectacular. This area offers a mix of luxury condos and homes with prices starting around $639,000. The two-bedroom, two-bath condominium we explored was spacious, with a corner location that maximized natural light and cross breezes. If you’re after seclusion and tranquility, Amapas is the perfect place to call home. Two-bedroom condos generally start around $360,000 USD, but from time to time, something lower might hit the market!
