Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – Traditionally, for those renting vacation properties in Puerto Vallarta, rate calendars have always included a peak season, high season, mid-season, and low-season. But as the world is slowly and safely preparing to travel again, and Puerto Vallarta is seeing a huge uptick in tourism, the lines between those seasons are beginning to blur. And it is not a trend that many tourism experts see changing, in fact, most are saying good-bye to the “low season” entirely.
Sylvia McNamee, owner of Puerto Vallarta Babysitting, a tourism-focused nanny agency, commented, “We have been in business since 2011, but we have never seen anything like the past 10 months. Generally, our season runs from Thanksgiving to Easter, but this year, since September 2020, we have been fully booked, particularly with long-term families that are working remotely and staying 2 or 3 months at a time. In fact, our June 2021 bookings are full as our December 2020 bookings, which is amazing because traditionally December would be our peak season and in June, we wouldn’t expect many reservations at all.”
The ability to work remotely has changed how many people travel, moving away from one or two week vacations to instead take month or two month long “workcations,” and 2020 changed how many travelers approach travel, with the idea of a private rental seeming more open, fresh and secure than a traditional hotel stay.
All of this is great news for those that own a vacation home in Puerto Vallarta, meaning that they are likely to not only see more rental weeks booked per year, but will potentially see longer-term renters, meaning less administrative work, and see weeks booking consistently throughout the year.
