Costco was our first stop after landing in PV and it came in clutch for our 5 night stay!…read more Outside of a small variety of goods, this Costco featured all the standard items we were accustomed to back in the US. We swung by and ended up with a cart full of stuff that I swear would have cost us $600+ back home, but somehow only ran us $387 here. Was wild...and impressive! We were able to stock up on all the things from meats, eggs, tortillas, snacks, drinks, cups, etc...only thing we were a tad disappointed in was the liquor selection and the fact that they did not have any spray sun block. This place was busy, even for a Thursday morning. Locals and tourists alike, but they kept the lines moving! Costco is the spot. No major complaints. Great location for us, stellar store and trip!

For example, I did a facial laser treatment and wanted to pick up some new facial soap that wasn't harsh on the skin. A small bottle of cera ve costs $20 and a 20-pill bottle of Tylenol was over$10. But I purchased a nice purse, big enough to hold my iPad, by a Mexican company that was $100 and I received a gift card back for a future purchase. So if you're purchasing Mexican products, it's great. But anything outside of that is quite expensive. I will say that they had a huge variety of products. It's two stories and some of the staff speak English. Otherwise, connect to WiFi and use Google Translate. It's been a lifesaver.

Adj: Super Sufficient for Souvenirs!…read more This is the "famous" Walmart in Puerto Vallarta, (State of) Jalisco in Mexico. Every (or most) Mexican Riviera cruise stops at this port. After a full and fun day walking along the boardwalk/ocean front of PV, we stopped here for some souvenirs. This is the place to come for some little knick knacks pattywacks to bring home for loved ones and friends to bring them back little gifts and this Walmart definitely had a whole bunch of the keychains, little shot glasses, and other cutesy types of gifts. The store also had everything you'd expect from a Walmart from food fresh and pantry-shelf-stable, to clothing and shoes, to candies and snacks, to electronics and home appliances, to toys (esp. water toys and beach favorites) and games. Service was efficient and friendly with my very limited Spanish (they're used to tourists, I'm sure), so checkout was quick and easy. Overall, this Walmart was big, clean, and nice and neat and the prices were significantly better than the souvenir gift shops that are obviously tourist traps right at the cruise terminal, so a short walk here was worth it, even though we took a taxi on the way back to the cruise ship from the boardwalk, we did walk back to the ship after shopping here.

Bordering a Sam's Club (#1), it is strategically located near the Marina in the heart of Zona Hotelera and the Marina Vallarta (#2). Besides buying cheap'ish PV trinkets, magnets, memorabilia, this also serves as a place for toiletries, personal supplies, and even the occasional emergency beachwear. Americans love the place even more when they find it's excellent for air conditioning, accepts credit cards, has bathrooms and ATMs. What they don't have is good customer service. Quality interactions at Walmart should never be expected but the effort seems to be minimal across the board. A few other things to know is that the pricing is on part with the US and there are no fitting areas. Lastly, what's a Walmart without immense parking? There are plenty of spots, but it's not free. The 24 hour lot is $12MXN per hour and lost tickets can cost as much as $80MXN. Leave the bus stop for locals and the walking for the rest. A reusable shopping bag goes a long way. ___________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/sams-club-puerto-vallarta-puerto-vallarta (#2) AKA a magnet for tourists.

Unfortunately, they didn't have much of a selection and the things they sold there were just as expensive as the US. What I did end up enjoying was the food court, the services and the AC! I ended up taking two busses from my hotel to get there and it was HOT outside so the AC was welcomed! My husband and I enjoyed getting tacos and ice cream from the food court. They also have a beautiful balcony that overlooks the ocean connected to the food court. We were also able to get mani/ pedis from one of the nail salons in the mall. Thankfully the owner spoke English and we were able to get an appointment together. I probably wouldn't go out of my way again to go to this mall, but I would still go in if I were already going to the Walmart next door.

Hubbers said we most likely won't find whatever those things were, but thought, "let's give it a shot and check it out anyway." And he was right: I didn't find what I wanted to get. But since we were already here, I thought we'd walk around anyway in case we do find something we might have liked. Typical of most malls in the US, but it gave me more of malls how it was maybe back in the '90's, early '00's. There's the expected food court, Liverpool (sorta like a step below Macy's or Kohl's like store), other independent shoe and clothing store, etc. Nothing really stood out to even slightly tickle my interests. Good run, though... but not sure I'd come back.

Very common, there are over 800 different stores in Mexico alone and the number is always growing. The store was insanely crowded when we went but everyone was friendly and many people were smiling and saying hello to us. Or at least hola to us. The store is quite large and since this was the first time we were in the store or even in the city, we had a bit of difficulty navigating around but that actually made it fun. I don't even remember what we originally went in there for but it's the type that has so much stuff that you will find all kinds of things that you suddenly remember you need or at least want. Since we were traveling we had to use some common sense and limit our purchases to the absolute minimum. We thought it would be a nightmare trying to fight through the hordes of people and find what we want, but since everyone was so polite and nice it turned out to be an enjoyable experience. Easy to see why Sorianna is so popular, it probably has everything anyone could want at reasonable prices. Can't ask for more than that.

The Walmart app doesnt work here. But I brought up things I needed and showed employees or the pharmacist. Yea, they were all clueless. So if you dont speak Spanish you are out of luck. They do not have much of a freezer section sadly. But if you need yogurt, wow a full complete row on both sides.

It is turning into more of a professional office building. There are doctors, dentists, attorneys, engineers, etc. There are also cleaners, nail salons, hair salons and some boutique stores. The anchor tenant is Mega with everything you need from groceries to liquor to paint to car tires to appliances (fridge, TV, juicer - you name it). There are restaurants around the perimeter like Jeans Hamburgers (awesome), Los Molcajetes (very good), Moka Café (great coffee and lunch) and a few others I have not tried. Parking is cheap ($6MX for 2 hours?). La Isla this is not, but if you must go to the grocery store, stop by and walk around a bit. It is mostly locals and not touristy other than expats going to Mega from the Marina condos.
