New Year by the Beach

When the cold stays away and the sea welcomes you

While in many cities the New Year arrives with heavy jackets, closed windows, and the heater turned on, in Puerto Vallarta the calendar changes with bare feet, warm skin, and the constant sound of the sea. Here, winter doesn’t invite you to hide—it invites you to come together.

Snowball fights turn into laughter in the pool. Snowmen give way to sandcastles built across generations. Hot drinks are replaced by something refreshing, enjoyed as the afternoon fades by the ocean. And a night spent indoors becomes a peaceful walk along the beach, beneath a sky that promises new beginnings.

Celebrating together, without rush or heavy coats

Welcoming the New Year at the beach is a simple yet powerful act: being together. There are no clocks rushing dinner, no traffic complicating the gathering. Just shared tables, long conversations, and the comfort of knowing that everyone—children, adults, and grandparents—finds their own rhythm.

In this setting, Buenaventura Grand Hotel & Great Moments naturally becomes that home by the sea where families come together without distractions. A warm and joyful all-inclusive family hotel, located in the heart of Puerto Vallarta, ideal for saying goodbye to the year calmly and welcoming the next with hope.

Traditional winter vs. New Year by the sea

Where scarves and gloves once ruled, here there is a gentle ocean breeze. Where the cold forced everyone indoors early, here the night invites you to keep walking along the shore. The contrast is not only visual—it’s emotional: the body relaxes, smiles come naturally, and time seems to slow down.

Children don’t count minutes until bedtime; they count waves. Adults don’t think about the cold of the next morning, but about the first sunrise of the year reflecting over the Pacific.

A new beginning with a taste of family

Starting the year together, in a destination that embraces and accompanies you, leaves a lasting mark. It’s not about grand fireworks, but about knowing glances, unhurried toasts, and the feeling that the year begins lightly—with feet in the sand and a full heart.

Because some traditions are born this way: trading cold for the sea, staying indoors for shared laughter, and “Happy New Year” for a long embrace by the ocean.

Here, there will always be a place at the table for you and your loved ones.
