Giving Yourself To Mexico is Precious Thing

Where: Paraguay 1117, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, 48350

We've told you of the dangers of staying in Mexico (poop-stained sheets anyone?) But we realize that no matter what we say, some of you are still going to go.

So like a parent preaching safe sex, we're giving you an option that won't break your bank, is clean with helpful staff, won't ask you to do it because you love them and won't get you pregnant. At least we don't think.

The El Pescador in Puerto Vallarta is definitely el cheapo but with killer views (see above pic taken at sunset), an extremely friendly staff, and clean rooms.

Located right on the ocean and a couple of blocks from the Malecon or romantic boardwalk, the hotel provides some safety-net distance from the spring breaker bars. Instead it's situated right next to a great cabana bar, a supermarket, and several local taco stands in case you want to extend the el cheapo theme.

The hotel also features a pretty decent restaurant and a seaside pool. At $50 bucks a night and even less depending on the season, you'll totally have money left over to pay your medical bills back in the states to treat any weird rashes or illnesses you may have contracted from the taco stand.

Premiere Hotel & Spa

Looking for an antidote to the generic gringo-tels that line Puerto Vallarta's Zona Hotelera? Then the Premiere Hotel & Spa, which opened in 1999, is for you.

Located along El Malecon, PV's oceanfront main drag, the Premiere is a white, breezy, art-filled, 83-room boutique hotel offering sedate, charming rooms filled with the kind of cool bath products you can't help but hoard in your suitcase. And who needs the beach when you can kick back in your own ergonomically-designed, cobalt blue tile Jacuzzi for two on your balcony while sipping a margarita and gazing our at the Bahia de Banderas?
