Thanks for watching. It is roughly 2/3 the cost of living in my area in British Columbia. A 3 bedroom nice rental home 3 blocks from the beach was around 10,000 pesos a month. The food is cheap, although if you want to spend a lot on a fancy meal you can find lots of options. Gasoline is about the same as here in Canada too.
@@waynebeaubien9570 it is so family orientated and friendly! Just FYI the biggest celebration of the year IMO happens from Dec 2 to Dec 12 each year.. to celebrate the Virgin Mary (Guadeloupe) and the music and fireworks and carnival atmosphere is wonderful!
This town looks so peaceful I bet you can get good rental deals here .The Music doesn't bother me this is Mexico.The town is near the beach not many expats etc.
Melaque really is peaceful and family oriented, but really gets lively during Christmas and St. Paddy's Day. The music was wonderful actually. It was everywhere. Thanks for the comment!
I guess the poster doesn’t realize there are three adjoined towns. The video is Villa Obregón; San Patricio and Melaque are much nicer and more up-market.
A very quaint little pueblo... but my favorite part is at exactly @2:00 when the Rooster crows right on time with the music! 🎶🎵 El gallo canta a tempo como un hefe!! 😆 Gracias para este video. Necesito irme y visitar esas playas!
i could have used your Spanish ability down there! Mine's getting better. Thanks for watching! I paid the rooster to do that! Maleque's beach is 3 miles long and it's incredible! Dew it!
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. That part of town isn't the prettiest but it sure is authentic and so different than where I live so it was interesting. The south end of town near the lagoon is beautiful and so is the Malecon here.
The cartels want the tourist money to keep coming in so they make sure that tourists and foreign nationals are not bothered. The government and police in Canada are much more of a threat to your safety and financial security than the cartels ever will be. Just like in Vancouver or Toronto, don't do stupid things. Mexico (away from the borders) is safer than many places in Canada.
Thanks for watching! Yes and I hear it's getting more expensive every year, sadly. To be fair, there are cheaper monthly house rentals and some cheap places to eat if you know where.
Thanks for watching! I rented a small place with friends for a month and a half. There are all kinds of vacation rental places available for weeks or months. We found our place on a Facebook group "Friends of Melaque".
@CanadianSpiderMan Thanks so much for the quick response, will be looking into things for next winter season. Best regards from a fellow Canuk. .... Ivan
I’m from Cihuatlan, all those beach towns are nice and calm much affordable and just low key. We used to go to La Manzanilla and el tamarindo before they built the 5 star resort. Good times! Enjoy
Hey thanks for watching! We visited Cihuatlan a few times while exploring Jalisco! What a great state! Thanks for watching. Jalisco's beach towns are just incredible indeed!
Hey thanks for watching! The town is special and beautiful. I have posted videos showing the ocean and beach within the last couple of months and I will post more today! Thanks for the suggestion and support, seriously! Here's a beach video I posted 3 weeks ago if you want to check it out: thanks! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-821bqtjRhCA.html and here's one of me getting smashed by the waves on the beach with Laguna del Tule resort in the background if you want to see the great wave action there.
There are direct flights to Puerto Vallarta and then it's a 4.5 hour bus ride south to Melaque. The flight from Kelowna to PV is about 4 hours. Thanks for watching!
