Why is Puerto Vallarta the destination of choice for many retirees?

Puerto Vallarta besides being voted the friendliest city in the world by Condé Nast magazine it was also voted the best place to retire by the American Association of Retired Persons in 2010. It is without hesitation, one of the top destinations for American and Canadian retirees.

Puerto Vallarta, tucked behind the Sierra Madre Mountains next to Banderas Bay, is safely protected from Pacific storms coming out of the south and has a perfect climate with an average daily temperature of 75°F from November through May with virtually no chance of rain.

Recent investments from developers, but also from the Mexican government, have transformed it into a fully developed destination, with world class infrastructure, services and amenities making it one of the most attractive retire-oversea choices.And the Mexico's Senior Citizens´ Benefits Program offers up to 50% discounts on these services to retirees over the age of 60.

Vallarta, easy accessible from most cities in the U.S. and Canada, has dozens of fine gourmet restaurants, hundreds of typical food places and seven world class golf courses, tennis courts and deep sea fishing.

Furthermore and most important, is the fact that the Mexican government has passed several new laws encouraging foreign investment, and owning property in Mexico has never been so uncomplicated.

We all dream of moving abroad when we retire. When you are no longer tied to a job you can finally take off for a warmer climate, pursue your hobbies, or simply enjoy a more relaxed way of life.

There is no wonder why thousands of Canadians and Americans, but also many Europeans are attracted to the beauty of this paradise, where you will find a place that fits to every retirement lifestyle need and still be able to experience the Mexican charm.
