Bienvenidos amigos to another episode of MLD!!!
We have been apartment hunting in Puerto Vallarta Mexico and almost gave up...until the day we found the 2 perfect places with the same day. We we're in a real dilemma and did not know which to pick since they were quite different from each other. Let us show you these apartments, introduce both neighbourhoods and let you know which one we picked.
This is our journey!

Congratulations Marc and Kathleen, I am glad you found your apartment. As for which one I choose, Agua Azul would be my choice as well. That view from the balcony is amazing.

Thank you 😊 and it really it. Very calm neighborhood
I find the luxury apartments too modern and plain, a very cold vibe. I prefer a more traditional and local vibe. Agua Azul for me, who needs a pool when you can swim in a beautiful, turquoise ocean and sandy beach? As far as restaurants, you will most likely be invited to fiestas and local cookouts in a neighbourhood once the people get to know you, and the kids will play and enjoy piñatas! You can enjoy the restaurants on your way to the beach! 😊❤

We agree! That’s a big reason we moved to Agua Azul! Although our apartment lacks a traditional touch it makes up for it being in a great neighbourhood. We have already taken part in MANY fiestas being here lol
Congrats on the new apartment. I’m going to Puerta Vallarta in March, cannot wait. 🇨🇦

Thanks!!! That's not a bad choice at all. I would say renting in either Versalles or 5 De Diciembre for 6 months would be ideal - both are very well located with lots to do.
Definitely agua azul! Waking up with a cup of coffee to that lush jungle hills 😍 and the condo has more character

Know both places well. Can see how it was a tough choice. I would have taken Agua Azul. , too. loved that Saturday market and it is a short drive to Oldtown. I feel like you guys are so much like we were when we came. Great down to earth videos your making! Looking forward to watching how it goes for you there... Thanks.

Felicidades on your new Apartment. I too would pick Agua Azul; to immerse oneself a local neighbourhood is the way to go. No deck/terrace would be a deal breaker for me.

Hello, just subscribed to your channel. Heading down to PV ( well NV this time ) in a few weeks for our 14th trip. I'm enjoying your videos! thanks from THunder Bay, Ontario...I think that Agua is the better choice. That area is way nicer and has more of that local feel
@Morelifediaries
10 ай бұрын
Thank you 😊 NV is also beautiful. Definitely a lot more local and raw which we like
We lived in Versalles ( the house Olive by Rueben is now in) and went to the Saturday market at least twice a month. Love some of the housing in Agua Azul but never really got to know the neighborhood. So am very much looking forward to you sharing more of that area of PV! And congrats on finding a new home!

Thank you! It's great here and looking forward to sharing some of our favourite things.
No no no, not Versailles, my wife and I have decided to stop following you. Ha, just kidding. Regarding you asking for our comments, we thought you would select Versalles because of the kids school and library as you mentioned, but also giving Kathleen the 2nd bathroom, the air in each room, a pool to help with heat and a laundry room, as that is a must for us. But your reasoning for Agul Azul made sense because as you mentioned, it's the reason you moved to Mexico and we can understand that. If did also give you the air in the rooms, but I can agree with the view (from what we could see) and the storage closet space. And a great price, congrats! Thanks for bringing us along on your journey!

LOL it was honestly such a hard choice for us. The Versalles one had so many good things and a great price but we went with what felt right. We can always move to Versalles next year 😎
Aqua Azul for sure. Love that balcony.

Ugh! It's so cringy to hear how touristy it is now. My neighbors were goats and a rooster when I lived in Versailles 23 years ago. 😅 Before that, I was over in Viejo Vallarta. But, i was thinking of renting a place for a few months, and this was helpful! Thanks!

Thank you for watching al the way from Etobicoke :) We do miss a nice Etobicoke Sanremo bakery, Costco and Ikea run lol On or near the Malecon we have only been to Los Arcos in Zona Romantica and Buenaventura. Location wise and from what we experienced with our day pass Buenaventura is a great choice - food was excellent, vibe was right and its close to everything.

Ok, serious question. Every expat community I have ever visited is overflowing with Canadians. Why are so many leaving Canada just out of curiosity. And thank you for your videos. :)

Thank you 😊 I know that a lot of retirees are coming here now that were previously going to Florida because the insurance and overall cost of going there has increased. As for younger people and families: quality of life, cost of living, politics are probably amongst the top reasons. With the ability to work online now for a lot of people they can choose to work fro wherever and Mexico is amazing and it’s somewhat close by!

@@Morelifediaries Hey guys, love your latest Podcast. Want you to know I found a perfectly great 1 bedroom, like new, Apt in Versalles in my budget and exactly what I wanted!! Only downside is that it’s a third floor walk up!! There’s always a “but” I think I will handle it! Thanks for the suggestion. I move the first week of Nov. after that we’ll get together for coffee! I’m glad you love your new place!
Versalles !

You made a good choice for daily interactions with the local people. The first apartment was nice but seemed more tourist like overall. Your choice will be better for your children and fun for all of you. I am looking forward to the next video.
