My husband and I recently spent three days at Aticama Bed and Breakfast near San Blas. We are recently retired and thoroughly enjoyed the laid back life style of this area. We traveled by bus from the airport in Puerto Vallarta--it dropped us off and picked us up again right in front of the property. We enjoyed walking the lovely beach for miles. The garden was beautiful and we spent a considerable amount of time just relaxing, reading, chatting, etc. in the hammocks and lounge chairs. The sound of the ocean waves lull you to sleep at night along with the refreshing breeze. The sheets and bath towels were luxurious. Huge beach towels were provided. Wonderful breakfasts were served outside on the patio. One morning we had to leave at 6:00 for a birding expedition and Ken very graciously fixed us breakfast at the unimaginable hour of 5:30 a.m. We told him he could just leave some fruit out but he insisted on nourishing us properly. We did go in to San Blas one evening however we much preferred to walk to the nearby traditional Mexican town of Aticama. There were several good places to eat--Ken & Sheila will help you out with recommendations. During the day local vendors sell ice cream, bakery goods, etc. on the beach right in the front of the inn. If you are looking for action and nightlife this is not the place for you but we felt we could have easily spent a week there. Ken and Sheila are the perfect hosts!
