It’s a sad reality that dirty laundry happens even (or perhaps especially) when you’re enjoying a few days in the sun on Mexico’s Banderas Bay. Of course, you can remain in your Puerto Vallarta villa, discretely hidden from prying eyes, and spend your days and nights au natural, as they say. While this strategy has some merit, it will prevent you from fully enjoying your stay – in other words, no beach volleyball, no zip line tours, no karaoke at Carlos O’Brien’s.
A more realistic approach to the laundry issue might involve scheduling a brief time-out for a trip to the lavanderÃa, or laundromat. You can find a good facility at 289 Francisco Madero. (Note: if your Puerto Vallarta villa has laundry facilities, your friendly staff can probably teach you to use the machines in short order, and they may even volunteer to do the job themselves.)
You’ll have your best results if you acknowledge from the start that this isn’t your regular stomping ground and ask someone in the know for advice. For instance, laundry detergents in Mexico tend to be somewhat less forgiving that what you may be used to, so don’t overdo it or your favorite red dress may come out in shades of pink.
