For years Puerto Vallarta’s water has been certified for human consumption – one of the few places in Mexico to receive this honor, but that doesn’t mean you should necessarily drink it. It means it’s safe when it leaves the water treatment plant, but after going through the water pipes, what comes out the other end may not be. The villa has its own purification system also, so no need to fear brushing your teeth, showering or swallowing a pill. Stick to purified bottled water to be safe, you don’t want to spend your valuable vacation time being sick!
