Our greeting families are recruited with great care. The criteria of selection are very rigorous and each family must satisfy a precise schedule of conditions: excellent morality, desire to communicate with their host, satisfactory social standing. We should specify that the families will only speak with you the language of the country where you will be. It is the principle of the immersion courses! 

By reputation the second of Mexico's beach resorts, Puerto Vallarta is smaller, quieter and younger than Acapulco. In its own way it is actually every bit as commercial - perhaps more so, since here tourism is virtually the only source of income - but appearances count for much, and Puerto Vallarta, while doing all it can to catch up with Acapulco, appears far less developed. Its hotels are scattered along several miles of coast, the greatest concentration in Nuevo Vallarta, north of the town and sliced through by an eight-lane strip of asphalt, but there are no tall or obviously modern buildings in the center; and the tropical village atmosphere, an asset assiduously exploited by the local tourist authorities, does survive to a remarkable degree.

Until 1954, Puerto Vallarta was a small fishing village; then Mexicana airlines, their hand forced by Aeroméxico's monopoly on flights into Acapulco, started promoting the town as a resort. Their efforts received a double shot in the arm when John Huston chose Mismaloya, 10km south, as the setting for The Night of the Iguana, and the star, Richard Burton, inflamed scandal-mongering in the international press by having Elizabeth Taylor tag along.

The package tourists stay, on the whole, in the beachfront hotels around the bay, but are increasingly penetrating the town centre to shop in the pricey boutiques and malls, and to eat in the some of the very good restaurants downtown.

Nevertheless, what could be a depressingly expensive place to visit turns out to be liberally peppered with good-value hotels and budget restaurants, especially during the low season (Aug-Nov).

Apart from the beaches and tourist shops, there is not a lot to do in Puerto Vallarta; certainly nothing in the way of sights or architecture. You could fill an hour or two, though, wandering around the area between the two plazas and on the island in the river.
