How to get there
GETTING THERE From the South by Bus(PV)
The house is located in Aticama on #37 Bahia de Matanchen right above the cemetary (it's not visible from the house, lol) Aticama is 90 miles North of Puerto Vallarta. There are four buses that run from Puerto Vallarta (7am, 10am, 12am and 3pm - subject to change). there is a large bus depot that you'll arrive at which is just down the street from the airport. It stops at a crossroad town called Las Varas where you can get on a local bus, cheap, or arrange for a collectivo to take you to Aticama. Make sure you agree on a price beforehand. When we did this the best price was if it could pick up other passengers which was no problem at all. Otherwise the bus will take you into Tepic which adds an extra 2 hours to the trip. Or you can rent a car, I highly recommend Alamo, alamo.com , a car usually runs $130 for a week and it really pays for itself. They're located across from the airport or take a taxi for around $100 USD.
GETTING THERE From the South by car
NORTH FROM PUERTO VALLARTA: From the Puerto Vallarta airport, turn LEFT and take Highway 200 NORTH (the opposite direction from downtown Vallarta) in the direction of Tepic, for 96 kilometers (about 62 miles) until you reach LAS VARAS. As you enter LAS VARAS, you must move to the extreme right, off the main highway, in order to turn LEFT at the traffic light and continue for 68 kilometers (about 33 miles). As you pass through Zacualpan, you will make a left turn at the main plaza, and continue following the highway towards San Blas. When the highway "T's" just past El Llano, make a left turn and continue towards San Blas. (do not continue in the direction towards Santa Cruz) and you will drive along the coast for about 15 kilometers to the village of Aticama.
