 Playasola Location

Local transportation to and from the airport is included in the rental rate. Guests are picked up at the airport by private drivers in one or two white suburban’s and driven to Boca Tomatlan pier. There, you are greeted by staff members who assist with your luggage and guide you onto one or two private water taxis, for an 8 minute coastal ride, to arrive on the sand, directly in front of Playasola. Twenty feet from sand arrival are the cantera steps, leading to the beach palapa, terraces and villa of Playasola. Once you experience the private sandy beach, you may never want to leave!   Water taxis are available day and night, as it is the primary method of transportation to these tourist-catering towns on the south coast of Puerto Vallarta. The drivers all have cell phones, so a water taxi can be in front of the house within 5 minutes of calling, for an 8 minute ride to the main Boca pier, and then a 20 minute drive to downtown Puerto Vallarta. It's amazing that a place so secluded can be so close to downtown Vallarta!

Staff of 7 included: breakfast/lunch cook and a waiter, Dinner chef and a waiter/bartender, a housekeeper, a groundskeeper and a nigh time security guard.
