For a while now we’ve been hearing the name “El Pitillal” floating around as one of the cutest, most traditional neighbourhoods in PUERTO VALLARTA. We were told this was THE spot to come shop for everything from souvenirs to household items and to definitely NOT forget to eat here. We quickly watched YouTube videos on this neighbourhood and although it looked nice – it didn’t look very lively…boy were we wrong.

El Pitillal is located 20 minutes (5km) outside of Centro downtown Puerto Vallarta. It was originally a separate town from Puerto Vallarta, with its own distinct identity and history. However, as Puerto Vallarta grew and expanded over the years, El Pitillal became integrated into the larger city. Although this part of town is relitevily quiet, it hosts some of the best traditional Mexican fiestas, which take place throughout the year. These celebrations include parades, live music, dancing, and lots and lots of delicious food. We were there right before Semana Santa (Holly Week) – one of Mexico’s most celebrated holidays.

El Pitillal truly is a hidden gem in PUERTO VALLARTA and we’re most definitely going back … if not for the shopping then for the amazing food and don’t be surprised if you catch us moving here in the future 🙂

This is our journey!
