Top Places to See While Celebrating Christmas in Mexico
Planning on celebrating Christmas in Mexico this year? You have a fantastic trip ahead of you. Virtually the entire country is a perfect place to enjoy this time of year. That said, while you’re escaping to the warm weather and friendly culture this December, there are certain locations that are particularly fun to experience on or near Christmas.
While you’re staying at Villa Estrella, there are several places you can visit for day trips or overnights to take in the winter sun and the country’s own celebrations.
Celebrating Christmas in Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit
The entire Riviera Nayarit grants you more than 250 miles of gorgeous crystal-clear waters and shimmering waves. If you love the beach, you’ll be thrilled to count the 12 days of Christmas in this part of the country. Being able to celebrate Christmas in Mexico in this way means you’ll take in full sun and comfortable warm – but not extremely hot – temperatures that will leave you with a whole new kind of festive cheer.
Puerto Vallarta
About two and a half hours from your luxury oceanfront villa rental, you can celebrate Christmas in Mexico at the Boca de Tomatlan’s white, sandy shore without having to face any crowds. Get away from it all and relax with friends and family. Alternately, head south to Conchas Chinas where the rich sea life and gentler tides are perfect if kids are traveling with you.
While you’re in the city, eat at any of the outstanding restaurants and take in the local culture as it prepares for the big day.
Nuevo Vallarta
Slightly closer to Villa Estrella you can celebrate Christmas in Mexico with a trip to Nuevo Vallarta in just over an hour. There is a massive luxurious resort area in that city, meaning that you will find many high end restaurants and spas, if that is the type of experience you’re looking for while you’re in the country. There are also some lovely opportunities to head out on boat cruises to enjoy fishing, sunsets or even whale watching. Enjoy the natural beauty of the sea and see its stunning creatures close up.
Stay at Your Luxury Villa
As great as it is to head away, your luxury villa rental is also a fantastic place to stay to celebrate Christmas in Mexico. Make sure Santa knows where to send your kids’ presents, and you’ll be set to combine your traditions from home with this vacation paradise.
