VACAYA returns to gay Puerto Vallarta in 2023!
Building upon the success of our 2022 Mexico Resort program, we’re thrilled to return to Puerto Vallarta in 2023! Dubbed the “San Francisco of Mexico,” PV has long been considered the most welcoming and LGBT-friendly destination in the country. And VACAYA’s got the PERFECT occasion and the PERFECT resort to experience all PV has to offer. Take your pick of big gay nightclubs, intimate cocktail lounges, international cuisine, fabulous shopping, and more all within the historic Zona Romántica of PV (that’s the city’s gay area, for all you PV newbies), which is less than a 10 minute taxi/Uber ride from our resort, the HILTON VALLARTA RIVIERA. For the adventurous, PV offers a variety of fun outdoor experiences from horseback riding and ATVs to jungle trekking and hot springs.
Celebrating Halloween and Day of the Dead in Mexico is VACAYA’s most beloved tradition, and HILTON VALLARTA RIVIERA is all ours Oct 29-Nov 5, 2023. VACAYA’s ever-increasing buying power gives us the chance to offer you a 7-night holiday at an affordable price at this beautiful resort nestled against the sea. In fact, VACAYA never stops negotiating on your behalf and we’ve delivered even lower pricing on suites in 2023 than we offered in 2022. So, we encourage you to take a look and jump into a level of pampering that only a suite can provide! But what’s even better? EVERY party, EVERY show, EVERY social activity, EVERY meal, and nearly EVERY drink at the resort is included – all for one low price!

An optional excursion to the parade and festival will be available through Amstar, our ground transportation partner.

THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAVEL INSURANCE
As we’ve all learned these past couple of years, having Travel Insurance is EXTREMELY important. So with each travel purchase, we strongly encourage you to purchase “Cancel For Any Reason” (or CFAR) travel insurance. If you decline to secure coverage, know that you’re responsible for any cancellation penalties and out-of-pocket expenses incurred because of your inability to travel/choice not to travel. LEARN MORE
SOLO TRAVELERS NOTE
While our Solo Traveling with Ease Program (STEP) has been sunset, we offer some great recommendations for finding a roommate HERE. And of course, your adventure with us as a Solo or Single Traveler will be jam-packed with fun activities that allow you to connect with other Vacayans.

In addition, shortly before the event, we will give each Vacayan the opportunity to pay a set gratuity amount, which VACAYA will forward onto Hilton to be distributed to the entire team on your behalf.

TRIP INSURANCE: GET IT!
There is one question every traveler across the globe universally faces: should I purchase Travel Insurance? It’s natural to ask yourself, should I spend the extra dollars to protect my vacation investment? Or do I leave it in the hands of Lady Luck and hope for the best. At VACAYA, we’ve always believed Trip Insurance was critical to the vacation planning process. That’s why we took special care to integrate the purchase opportunity into our online booking process. Pre-pandemic, the main reason to buy insurance was to assure your safe return home if something were to happen to your health while on vacation. That’s because quality insurance covers medical evacuation so people don’t have to pay medical emergency transportation expenses out of their own pocket.
With Covid-19 in our lives for the foreseeable future, we now have an even stronger rationale for recommending Trip Insurance. “Cancel For Any Reason” insurance has quickly risen in popularity, and for good reason. If you decide you don’t want to travel after the cancellation penalty period has begun, this type of insurance covers most if not all of your cancellation fee. It’s also a great way to help honor your Social Contract with VACAYA.
So go ahead and buy that trip, but protect your health and your investment by purchasing Trip Insurance. ❤️
RETURNING GUESTS
