Whether you’re looking
for the privacy of an immaculate Penthouse on the ocean or something
comfortable for the entire family at a budget price, Casa Iguana in Puerto
Vallarta, Mexico is a sure-fire, satisfying experience. Located in
Mismaloya,
this friendly hotel--run by fine Broughton Hospitality--offers
a garden setting, pool and vibrant Mexican décor. Although the
price fluctuates according to season, it remains near
$100 USD for a standard two bedroom suite. There are also special
packages
frequently available on their website (http://www.casaiguanahotel.com)
that include meals at the hotel’s pretty open-air, thatched-roof
restaurant, La Cocina. Luxury options offered for those on a spending
spree are a spacious Casa Iguana penthouse in town, or a private
beach house, that offers every amenity you could imagine, and a daily
housekeeper and cook are available upon request. If the astounding
view from the private beach house isn’t close enough to ocean
life, consider adding snorkeling or a dolphin swim with Vallarta
Adventures to your itinerary (www.vallarta-adventures.com).
