    In July 2021 we moved to a one bedroom apartment a block from the beach in 5 de Diciembre, and we'll be here through November. We love this neighborhood, which is quiet and not touristy. All our neighbors are locals. Like you, we shop at Ley unless we're feeling extra energetic about walking up to the fish market. Thanks for this great video with all the beautiful video footage! I'm sending this to our families so they can see how lovely it is here.

    Lovely ladies! What a gorgeous video...and I think it might even be the first I'm ever commenting publicly on UA-cam! Which says a lot. I've been researching PV for a few months and have fallen in love with it (virtually). From what I can see, 5 de Diciembre is the best place to live for both quality of life and great value. Your video confirmed that. Thanks for your insight and your great visuals. Not sure which one of you worked in the entertainment biz (I'm a documentarian)...but one of you clearly has some professional level skills. Keep up the good work...I've subscribed and will be looking forward to your next installment of what looks to be you both living your best lives!!

    Can I ask how much you guys pay a month for rent? My husband & i are planning to move there within 2 years & are very interested in the price difference of different areas in PV. Thank you for your video as I hadn't heard of this area as much so I had little info. Very helpful! I've subscribed to your channel & can't wait to explore more of your videos :)

    • @Farawaynow
      @Farawaynow  2 роки тому +2

      HI Chanel, so we were paying $1200 for our rooftop 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment. It was 3 blocks to the beach and the malecon but back just far enough for quiet. Prices in the neighborhood range from much lower than we were paying for ground floor apartments up to thousands for luxury high rises on the hill with a pool. We were in that apartment for 5 months. If you rent for 6-12 months you can negotiate a better rate. As we moved down in the middle of pandemic we wanted to have a place secure. We could have found a better price when in Vallarta. Doing it again I would pre-arrange just for a short period of time and look for a longer term rental once here. Thanks for subscribing, we hope you find all of our vids helpful to your plans!
