#1 Connectivity

One of the main reasons why Puerto Vallarta has become a favorite destination to retire in is the excellent connectivity it has. Its international airport receives around 1,000 national flights and 1,500 international flights from different countries every month.

It’s also a well-connected destination by land, offering easy access to metropolitan centers like Guadalajara or to charming Pueblos Mágicos (Magical Towns), as well as other beautiful beaches in the Mexican Pacific.

#2 Weather

In Vallarta, you enjoy a pleasantly warm climate year-round. Its average temperature is 80°F (27°C), and there are practically never heat waves during the summer.

On winter nights, the temperature can drop to 61°F (16°C), but you’ll never need to bundle up too much. It just makes for very enjoyable weather.

#3 Medical Care

A very important point for retirees is the issue of medical care. Vallarta has excellent medical infrastructure, with state-of-the-art health centers and clinics so that you never need to worry.
