Darlins - If you're looking for a place to stay in Puerto Vallarta for New Years THIS year - most of the Condos & Villas in Vallarta have been sold out for 6++ months!!!  Gay properties - 3-4+ months!   We're ALREADY taking reservations for NEXT New Years (2007-2008 - Ready to book it now??).

With Puerto Vallarta being THE HOTTEST Warm Weather Destination these days - MUCH (not all though) of Vallarta is booked from now till at LEAST around the middle/end of March & many places till Easter (April 8, 2007) with February being WAYYYYYY BOOKED!!

With that said - Miracles do happen (especially for some of us)!!   

DON'T WAIT!!!!   

PLEASE - Do NOT email us until you are ready to IMMEDIATELY book & pay at LEAST 50% down (full payment if less than 60 days) as whatever we find today - changes are HUGELY GOOD that it WILL be gone tomorrow so there's no sense in frustrating yourselves having to settle for something less/different than what you had hoped for/got a consensus on.

As of THIS moment - here's what I have (even if you don't see something that fits your budget/desire - still email us in case something opens up):

NEW YEARS

VALLARTA HOLIDAY WAIT LIST FORM

If these don't work for you - we'll be happy to put any SERIOUS people on our 70+ person Wait List ONCE you've answered ALL of the following questions:

1) Fill in your name, address and phone/fax numbers, and room choice (your phone # city help us to notify you when we're coming to your town or have any local specials):

Your Name:
#1  -  Do you have your airline tickets booked (before we present something to you we WILL require verification of proof)?  If not, have you at least looked within the past few days to see if you're willing to pay the HIGH rates??: Yes
No
#2  -  Are you ready to book/pay TODAY (of course IF/when we find you something) meaning NOTHING is held for this timeframe until the money is in - Ready to Show Us The $$$??  Yes
No
#3  -  What are ALL the phone numbers we'd need to contact you suddenly &/or to ask you more questions/get to know who you are first since we're potentially putting you into someone's private home & we want to respect that for them?  Don't want to give us a phone number we can EASILY reach you at?  Don't bothering answering any more questions.  Please give the hours we can reach you at for each number. Work: Hours:
Home: Hours:
Other: Hours:
#4  -  CRUCIAL question & be BEYOND realistic as xmas & New Years are THE BUSIEST weeks of the month (in a destination where there's mainly only about 4 month of the year where owners get to recoup their investments - all because the CONSUMER CHOOSES to mainly just travel then) & some properties literally triple their rates from their value/low season rates -
"Ultimately we want to spend $
per night (meaning we'd feel REALLY HAPPY paying this price & don't joke please since this time of year ain't funny when it comes to prices!!), but we don't want to spend more than $ per night WITH the 17% tax!!"

(MAX MAX MAX as if you don't give us your max - we won't offer you something that high & ya might have to sleep on the beach!!)  Unless it's TRULY TRUE - do NOT say "Money is not an issue" as we've had places for OVER $4,000 per NIGHT for New Years!!!

#5  -  Gettin' REALLY REAL here, how far are you willing to be from the heart of the action - 15 min. by bus/taxi?  The more flexible you are, the better your chances of getting something.  With that said - New Years Eve - even if you're out in Conchas Chinas - good luck finding a taxi (I was there a few years ago for NY & waited THREE HOURS for a taxi so finally I took off my "CFMP" shoes & stockings & walked barefoot down the DARK cobblestone streets for 40 min. (the next few days I couldn't walk as my feet were bruised. Keep the heels at home!!).     minutes by (walking, bus, taxi)
#6  -  Please email us ALL the options you're willing to take: Condo
Gay Property
Villa
B&B
#7  -  How many people are going & how many beds are needed (almost all of our people ONLY allow 2 people per bedroom MAX!!  Some buildings will actually remove you if you sneak in more.  What booking with Doin it Right different is we tell you these things instead of "Surprise!!")?  If any kids are coming - please give the ages (some properties have minimum ages for kids). Number of People
Ages of Children (separate w/commas)
#8  -  Are there any amenities that are crucial to you?  
#9  -  Is your intention to use the property for a Party & if so, for how many?   An HONEST answer is BEYOND CRUCIAL as MOST properties won't allow more than 1-2 extra people more than the total amount of people on the contract MAX (some won't allow guests at ALL anymore no thanks to a few fools that have blown it for the rest of us) while others require a Event Fee which is usually equal to a full night rent or more plus an Event Deposit (to cover wear & tear & potential theft which unfortunately does happen sometimes when you invite some less than honorable locals [or tourists]).   Either way - 99% of the properties require NO NOISE AFTER 10pm.   I'm SURE you don't want to be kicked out or arrested (which HAS been known to happen with people breaking the rules [another BIG difference with us as we tell you this UP FRONT instead of "Surprise - you're under arrest" or being kicked out!!]). Yes
No
#10  -  Knowing there's a GOOD chance of not getting the "perfect place" THIS LATE in the game (book NOW NOW NOW for next year for that since things are ALREADY getting booked for NEXT New Years!!) - what areas are you willing to compromise?  If you're used to upscale, are you willing to have something not so upscale vs. not going to Vallarta?  If you're seeking moderate - is basic ok vs. sleeping on the beach (which is actually illegal in Vallarta)? 
#11   -   Please e- us the names of ALL people traveling with you.









#12   -   What are the best email addresses to reach you at for QUICK response??   If one is a work one & it's ok for us to email you this announcement only but not further ones - please indicate that.

I'm going to take you literally for your word in your answers & not offer you anything more than what you're asking for here (it's time to speak your truth or forever sleep on the sand!!)

IF/when something comes up I'll email blitz EVERYONE within that budget/description & whomever responds & gets me their $$ first GETS IT!!!!

Either way - are you ready to book (& of course make the 50% deposit) for NEXT New Years to have a better chance of getting what you REALLY desire???

We hope we are able to assist you & whatever the outcome - HAVE FUN!!!

NOT LOCKED INTO PUERTO VALLARTA - MAINLY LOOKING INTO A HOLIDAY GETAWAY?? HOW ABOUT COSTA RICA??!!

If you're not locked into Puerto Vallarta for the holidays - we're JUST opening our OWN Guesthouse/B&B/Retreat Property & Private Villa rental in Escazu, COSTA RICA (the "Beverly Hills" of Costa Rica - just 10 minutes West of San Jose in the Central Valley)!!    It's   available for the Holidays - Xmas & New Years - renting the WHOLE 6+ bedrooms at   $800/night + 16.39 tax with a 7 night minimum - one holiday or the other (we might consider 10 nights if you desire both or ??).   $700/n plus tax thereafter.
