It can be a serious intellectual challenge for some folks to catch on to the fact that water is a scarce resource in Mexico. After all, you stand in the sand on Los Muertos beach, gazing out over Banderas Bay, and it seems to spill over the horizon, and closer to home, the pool in your Puerto Vallarta villa rental beckons invitingly. Still, try to remember that water is something you should use wisely.
“What gives?” you wonder; there’s water in the bay, water in the Rio Cuale and the Mascota River. There are swimming pools and water fountains in every patio and courtyard. And perhaps that’s the point – it seems to be everywhere, but water is Mexico’s scarce resource. An adequate supply of clean water for the future is not a sure thing. So, as you enjoy the good life in your Puerto Vallarta villa rental, do some small things to help out.

1. Take a shorter shower and turn off the tap when you brush your teeth.
2. Turn the water taps off firmly – those little drips can add up to lots of water down the drain.
3. Cover the pool and hot tub at your Puerto Vallarta villa rental when you leave to prevent water loss through evaporation.
