That's great that you had so many apartments to look at in your price range! Looking forward to see the one you chose. Cheers from Vancouver :)

Great work & really good video! You are never spoiled for knowing what you want, after all you are the one paying for it & your needs need to be meet! You guys are really amazing! Such a beautiful & loving family!

Thank you and absolutely 😊 it ain’t much to ask for to be honest lol

For the children, P.V. can be an outstanding place, because there are good schools and the kids can learn both languages fluently - something easier done at a young age. Well, I do hope to see you around town once we get back there. I've been going to P.V. since it was a small village with jungle all around it.

@Morelifediaries 6 месяцев назад

Yes our oldest has a good grasp of the language already. Our youngest knows a lot of words and understands very well.

@dennishassler605 6 месяцев назад

@@Morelifediaries - Let me know about your Health Ins . in Mex. - we may need similar - given a huge cost savings from the USA insurers. I am now on Medicare, but my wife still pays for a private plan - it's much too expensive. Medical in the USA is driven by GREED!!!!

@WendyVallarta 10 месяцев назад

I'm glad you are sharing your experience there. I'm renovating an apartment and Two studios in Viejo Vallarta, or Colonia Emiliano Zapata, walking distance to a lot of popular spots. This will help me to have a better idea and understanding how we can help our future guest. I hope you find the apartment that your family is looking for soon and keep enjoying PV! 😊

This is my wife at the end of the video…”Noooooooo! We have to wait until next time to see what they got?” Another very informative video. But we are like this 🤞🏼please be Versailles please be Versalles please be Versalles🤞🏼 because that’s where we (will) living. Can’t believe what was, or not offered on some of these apartments. But here in the states you wouldn’t get Internet, water or utilities included (not that I know of). Always look forward to your videos. Thank you for letting us join you on your journey!

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

LOL I guess you'll find out next time :) Electricity is typically never included and then the other services are a toss up. Thank you for watching as always!!!

@vallycakezz 9 месяцев назад

The pin drop/location difference is something that people will do to sell a place on Facebook marketplace before you realize the location isn't correct. It's a bit of a cat fish tactic unfortunately. I've seen it a bit in Mazatlan as well. This video was highly informative, thank you! I'll be in Pv for 6 months this winter and although I've found my place already, this was alot of great info. ❤

@Morelifediaries 9 месяцев назад

Such a tease with that cliffhanger! But seriously, apartment hunting is always so exhausting.

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

It definitely is 😣

@lindacornell5980 7 месяцев назад

@BetsyGutting 10 месяцев назад

I agree! Water pressure and AC are super important for the rainy season, especially. I'm looking now too in Vallarta. I live here as well and want to upgrade. Construction, yes! Also mold is important to look out for. So many things to be aware of. I want a one bedroom with a balcony and nice light and a bigger, brighter bathroom too! I would love to be near rio cuale. So far no luck but I'll keep looking. It's great to see your experience as well! Great video--thanks!

@Morelifediaries 9 месяцев назад

YES MOLD!!! Definitely something to look out for, especially in poorly ventilated bathrooms. Best of luck on your apartment hunt :)

How are the mosquitoes there? Do they carry diseases? They tend to love me (even when wearing Deet), so if they are prevalent, I will look elsewhere. 🙄

My family and I were there this past June, staying in Los Altos condos in Cinco Deciembre neighborhood for a couple weeks. We have two kids as well and we're eventually looking to move to either Versailles or Fluvial neighborhood. Looking to be close to Costco and La Comer as well as all the restaurants in the Versailles area . We'll be back next year for a stay at the Dreams all-inclusive resort

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Awesome 😎 both great neighbourhoods

@rohankandamby9857 10 месяцев назад

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Lol 😂 got 2 more apartments to show. Although the videos probably won’t do them justice we’ll do an official tour once we move in

@buchangas 9 месяцев назад

I really like your videos because I was living in PV during the summer, I'm from GDL but I love PV, so in the future I would like to live in PV. moreover, your videos help me practice my English.

Qué Bueno 😊 Y yo necesito praticar mi español - podríamos hacer un cambio de language jaja

@OfftoMexico11 10 месяцев назад

I was just staying on the rio cuale...very convenient location! Next time I'm in Mexico I will reach out and we can do dinner/drinks!

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Beautiful area. A little bit challenging with the kids walking up and down the hills.

@laurafischer9294 Месяц назад

Hey guys the two appartments u visited on the main road! (17:40mins)... U are lucky you didnt take it ( the bigger one) it is still under construction. And out the back where there was the sun room with the nice view .. there is now another building that they have built right outside blocking the view so the view is gone and the light too and it sucks.... They have ruined the entire building. Very sad Good luck on hunting hope u found something

@Morelifediaries 29 дней назад

WoW that’s good to know! We knew better than to trust the « it’ll all be done before you move in » speech we were told lol unfortunate they ruined that view!

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

@MrRbarr 7 месяцев назад

i used to live in las aralias on the way out to pitillar and that might be another place to look, a lot of locals live there and when i was a kid i had no issues with safety

@Morelifediaries 7 месяцев назад

Thanks 😊 not sure if you watched the full video but a few of the places are Las Aralias

@dennishassler605 6 месяцев назад

I enjoyed the video, because this is exactly what I expected to see in P.V. if one is willing to live outside the Tourist areas where costs are so high for perm residents. I prefer the Colonias and given I have two dogs I'd like some outside space or maybe even a house. Thank you for the video!!!

@Morelifediaries 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching :) We also prefer the more local Colonias although we loved our time in 5D.

@dennishassler605 6 месяцев назад

@@Morelifediaries Yes, 5D is very nice; however, there was a building I thought about someday buying, but when I found the place it was only 4- 5 blocks from the main part of the Malecon, but up a 45 degree hill where you had to zig zag to reach the top walking and it seemed dangerous to drive it as well - after that I had zero interest in the building.

@dennishassler605 6 месяцев назад

It's not just bad photos in many cases, BUT Mexican standards like having shelves in the kitchen can be a factor, because if the spacing is good one can always upgrade the furniture and compensate for outdated facilities.

@Morelifediaries 6 месяцев назад

Definetly! We saw so many that didn't have shelves in the closets either (Including our old apartment).

@dennishassler605 6 месяцев назад

@@Morelifediaries - those places a bit substandard can become an excellent deal if the rooms are well sized, because you can rent it cheaper and fix it up to a decent standard; however, there can be flaws that you cannot address, so the new, modern buildings address those things if you are willing to pay the premium.

@J.D.S.TX12 6 месяцев назад

I can't do furnished rentals.😎

@Morelifediaries 6 месяцев назад

Buying furniture is too much commitment to the apartment for us lol One day!!!

@victorramirez1280 9 месяцев назад

Marc, I was wondering, do landlords ask for a lot of paperwork & references when one wants to rent in PV? Is is similar to Toronto? Great episode, really enjoyed seeing those apartments.

@Morelifediaries 9 месяцев назад

Thank you 😊 Most don’t but I’ve heard that some do. Most people and 100% of the places we visited require first + last + deposit which is typically a full month (3 months rent total) and then they typically have a contract. Some higher end places will sometimes ask for references or proof of income.

@andrewthacker114 9 месяцев назад

Good luck.

@Morelifediaries 9 месяцев назад

Thank you 😊

@elvaplascencia6810 10 месяцев назад

San Blas is similar to Vallarta but a lot cheaper very nice and safe town with a walking distance to the 🏖️ there are big family houses or small single families rentals.

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching. Never heard of it but will definitely look it up :) thank you

@benmatthews7273 8 месяцев назад

Did you notice any places short term ? Im thinking of coming this winter for couple month's... thank you

@Morelifediaries 8 месяцев назад

There are specific short term Puerto Vallarta Facebook groups you can join. Most of the ones posted on Facebook marketplace seek long term tenants but you can also find short term ones (I think you may be able to filter). You can also use air bnb and ask the owner for a reduced rate since you’ll be booking for a few months (although fees are high)

@SisterSherryDoingStuff 10 месяцев назад

Aw😭...you're going to make us wait? LOL NOOOOOO!!

@mrsjuliemasse 10 месяцев назад

When making appointments for viewings do you contact them in English or Spanish?

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Siempre en español! Sometimes they will reply in English based on our Facebook name but I’d say 90%+ of our interactions are in Spanish.

@guiovanacazares1882 10 месяцев назад

Why not in Fluvial? It’s a beautiful residential family neighborhood and next to Versalles.

@Morelifediaries 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching :) There was nothing that really interested us in Fluvial to be honest. And we find the walkability to be a bit of a factor there (even though we have a car we like walking).

@kenken6550 3 месяца назад

We're moving there and my big question is WHERE do you find the apartments? What's a good online site to start with?? I can't seem to find any sites that aren't short term. Also, what about schools?

@Morelifediaries 3 месяца назад

Facebook marketplace is the best place. Best for schools is to join PV parent groups on facebook and ask for recommendations based on what you're looking for.

@kenken6550 3 месяца назад

Cool, thanks for the response! - Facebook and I haven't been friends for a while, but we'll check that out!
