Money Exchange
Mexican Peso is the local currency. You can buy them at home. Alternatively you can just use your interac or credit card in any bank machine in Mexico and it will dispense peso. There is a Scotia Bank at the airport so you can even grab cash there.
If you are a Scotia Bank client you will not have fees to withdraw money.

A La Carte Restaurant Dress Code
Formal is requested for at least one of the a la carte restaurants. This means:
Men - Long pants (dress pants) and close toed shoes with a button shirt.
Women - Dress or skirt or dress pants.
No flip-flops, shorts, bathing suits, men’s sandals, etc.
Why Puerto Vallarta?
Don’t worry both the destination and the resorts were thoughts out and not just randomly selected. As we have roughly 24 people interested in going away at that time, we thought we would open this up to anyone and see if we can get any favorable group rates. Please feel free to invite friends and family. The more the merrier!
Criteria:
Safe - following covid19 protocols and mandates, supposedly safer than Playa and Cancun.
Reviews - Make not that there are reviews in each of the prices and information links. Make sure to read all tabs.
Family Resort - This means not only do they accept children on the property, but they have a kids club, babysitting, and other activities. In my opinion, the Melia Puerto Vallarta is the best for kids and teens. (look under amenities)
Budget - We want to keep it as affordable as possible.
Direct Flights - In most cases
Smaller Property - Less than 500 rooms in all options. Less walking for 20 minutes just to get breakfast, or get to the beach, lobby, bathroom, etc.
Melia Puerto Vallarta
Meliá Puerto Vallarta sets the standard for family oriented All-Inclusive Hotels in Puerto Vallarta. The resort offers impressive features such as a themed children's area; activities and services where there is always something happening for everyone and everything is included.
