Princess Cruises Cancels Calls in Puerto Vallarta


Yesterday I was shocked to hear that Princess Cruises is canceling calls in Puerto Vallarta. This means that it will no longer stop in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, leaving millions of tourists without the Riviera experience.

I think that Puerto Vallarta is not only a perfectly safe destination, but one of the best places in Mexico to retire, and I'm concerned about the fact that Princess Cruises is disparaging Puerto Vallarta. Part of the problem is that in recent travel advisories, the U.S. State Department has been unclear about which regions present a risk to tourists in Mexico.

Mexico is a very large country and there are many great places in Mexico. I think that not traveling to Mexico because of violence at the border is like not going to L.A. after hearing of violence in New York City.

Puerto Vallarta is better than ever, it has fabulous food, wonderful weather and amazing cultural sights and events.

What are your positive experiences in Puerto Vallarta, Nayarit and Mexico? Are you happily involved with retirement communities in Mexico?

I'd love to hear about them in a guest blog!
