Puerto Vallarta Q2 2026: What the Closed Transaction Data Actually Shows
Between April and July 2026, the Vallarta-Nayarit MLS recorded 340 closed residential transactions. That dataset makes three things visible that don't get discussed in marketing materials. Whether you're buying, selling, or advising, these findings materially change the conversation.
Living in Zona Romántica — the neighbourhood that became
In 2007 it was a few quiet blocks around Olas Altas. What it became is the most accelerated neighbourhood transformation the city has ever experienced.
Living in Amapas — where Vallarta's design story began
Twenty years ago a development called Avalon changed the visual language of Puerto Vallarta real estate. What Amapas has been ever since.
Living in Conchas Chinas — what the listings don't tell you.
My first address in Puerto Vallarta was in Upper Conchas Chinas. What I know about this neighbourhood isn't in any listing description.
