Just returned from a week-long stay at the Arco Iris guest house and I can't stop raving about it. The hosts Tom and Ran offer a wonderful stay. All rooms have gorgeous views of the bay and the neighborhood itself is charming with steep cobble stoned streets and views at every turn of Puerto Vallarta's gorgeous landscape and unique architecture....

I stayed at the Arco for two nights 01/2009. It was an amazing experience. Your hosts are super nice and friendly and helpful. Tom is also a chef and he prepares the breakfast everyday. It was the two best breakfasts I have ever had in my entire life. Your room is big and the bed is huge and super comfortable.... More

The room was fairly spacious, lighting good,... More

I have stayed there now for at least three years. The men who run it are friendly and the boys who populate it can be beautiful. For privacy, views, and convenience, nothing else like it exists in Vallarta for gay men traveling on a budget. Im going again for two seeks at the end of January. Sky, sun, surf, a... More

We stayed there for a week in late January. Great place run by friendly fellows. We rented one of the rooms in a villa.It's the luck of the draw who is in the other rooms. The kitchen and living room are shared with the other guests. Our luck was pretty good. There was one other fellow in our villa who... More
