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!

Anyone who's been to a Walmart in the US, will find an immediate familiarity with the Puerto…read moreVallarta location. 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.

We took a taxi in from Nuevo, but there appeared to be plenty of underground parking. There is also a gym in the mall! Whether on the hunt for clothing, shoes, phone cases, mac products, sporting goods, toys, souvenirs, meds, boba, ice cream, empanadas, etc... this place has pretty much everything imaginable. Note- you will pay the price as there are not any discounts happening here! Employees are attentive in most places... some speak English, some not so much. Happy shopping!

It is what it is: a mall…read more I was on a hunt for a couple of specific things to bring back home as souvenirs for a couple of people. 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.

A bit of…read moreeverything Sorianna Hiper is a huge department/food store than is similar to the familiar Walmart and Targets of the United States. 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.

Right inside Walmart is a little McDonald's Ice Cream kiosk that has chocolate ice cream! Wish America McDonald's would have this. The Walmart in general isnt anything special. Of course speaking English you are completely lost. I tried using the "google translate" app to figure out things like if the butter was salted or unsalted. Yea..... didn't work so well. 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.
