Perhaps it is the contrasting beauty of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico that makes it such a popular vacation destination for those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of the real world. Here diverse ecosystems converge to create one of the most beautiful and exotic locations in the world. Steamy tropical jungles, rich farmland, soaring mountains, and pristine beaches make Puerto Vallarta a delightful respite for all of the senses.

Aside from the traditional hotel-based vacation, Puerto Vallarta offers another exciting vacation alternative: villas. Sprinkled along natural beaches and nestled in the lush vegetation of the jungle you will find luxurious villas that you can rent for the duration of your vacation. Most villas are complete with private swimming pools, a private chef, and a staff to see to all of your needs. And while you may never want to leave the pampered comfort of your gorgeous villa, the excitement of Puerto Vallarta is never far away.

Puerto Vallarta villas range in size from small, cozy properties perfect for a family to huge mansions complete with 12 bedrooms and all of the amenities you could possibly imagine. Just as villas range greatly in size, they also vary greatly in price. Depending on the property, villas of Puerto Vallarta can be rented for as little as a few hundred dollars per night or as much as $2,000 per night.

If the beauty of your villa and the sinful luxury of having your very own staff do not render you content and lazy for the length of your stay, you will be surprised by the amount of activities available in Puerto Vallarta. You can swim with dolphins in Banderas Bay; hike through the dense, tropical jungle; take a hot balloon tour over the Sierra Madre Mountains; or partake of one of the many water activities including kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving. Bird watching and whale watching are also popular activities as are the many cultural attractions to be found in the area.

If you’re seeking a vacation that gets you away from the “real world”, perhaps staying in a standard accommodation hotel isn’t quite the prescription you need. Take your trip one step farther from the crowds and spend your evenings in a quiet, private villa.

Greece offers mountain climbing, sailing, windsurfing, scuba diving, river rafting, kayaking, and hiking in it’s beautiful natural settings.

Visiting Piraeus

Piraeus is known as the premier port on the Aegean Sea and is a busy hub for travelers and locals. While in Piraeus, visit the Marina Zea and catch a ride to the Saronic Gulf to view the large yachts, restaurants, shops and taverns along the shoreline.

Amazing Athens

The Acropolis is the most famous site in all of Athens and lies in the center of the city. It contains a cluster of ancient ruins and is very popular among tourists. National Archaeological Museum is a museum featuring the art and artifacts of the Minoan’s an ancient tribe of people who once dominated the Aegean Sea. The Jewish Museum, Parthenon, and the National Gardens are all tourist hot spots in Athens. Kolonaki is a modern Athenian street filled with chic boutiques, coffee houses and restaurants.

Staying in Athens is recommended at the Hotel Athens, the Grande Bretagne Hotel, the Art Hotel, the Athens Hilton, the King George Palace, the Life Gallery Athens Hotel, the Periscope Hotel, and the Eridanus Hotel. These hotels are highly recommended by fellow tourists visiting Greece.

Colossal Crete

The Palace of Knossos is home to labyrinthine ruins that have been reported to be the home to the monstrous Minotaur, a half-man, half-bull creature that devoured young virgins in ancient times. Be sure to visit the Venetian Walls and Tomb of Nikos Kazantzakis, the historic village of Iraklion and the beautiful sixteenth century fortress known as The Venetian Fortezza. Some popular lodgings in Crete are: The Anastasia Hotel, King Minos Palace Hotel, the Megaron Hotel, Mike Hotel and Apartments, the Galaxy Iraklio Hotel, the Santa Marina Plaza, and the Camari Garden Apartments.

Well, that depends. Realistically, the minimum amount of money you are going to spend is about $ 5000.00.

$ 5000.00!

Yeah, $ 5000.00. Probably it will be closer to $10,000.00 or possibly more.

Before you react, let me put that in perspective for you:

How much did your last divorce cost you? $ 5000 may not have even covered the attorney’s fees.

A formal wedding dress can approach $ 5000.00 in cost.

Jewelers recommend three to six month’s wages as the suggested cost of an engagement ring.

A vacation for two averages three hundred dollars per day plus airfare and personal expenses, for a total of $ 5000.00 for a typical Club Med vacation.

Scuba diving, bicycling, or other equipment intensive hobby will probably cost you more than $ 5000 to get started.

To join a dating service, the entrance fees are often three to five thousand dollars or more.

It’s Worth Every Penny !
I can assure you that the adventure of wooing, winning, and wedding the woman of your dreams will be more exciting than any hobby or vacation you will undertake. It will be more spine tingling than bungee jumping or parachuting.

It will be more exciting than a dating service, where you are much more likely to be introduced to your neighbor’s ex-wife than a Playboy bunny.

You will enjoy spending the money much more for a trip to meet half a dozen beautiful Russian women than you would on scuba tanks or a mountain bike and certainly much more than on a divorce attorney.

If you have to, borrow the money from your mother. She probably will be happy to help you get out from in front of your television set or computer screen and go meet a woman who will spawn grandchildren for her.
