The meal plan is handled differently depending on the home you rent. About six weeks before your arrival, please contact the appropriate individual regarding the meal plan, dietary restrictions and preferences. The office will also require the number of guests and children under age 12.
Our guests usually arrive late afternoon or early evening; more than likely your housekeeper will be gone for the night. If you ordered the meal plan and arrive late, rest assured that your evening meal will be waiting for you in the refrigerator; you will simply need to heat your dinner. Additionally, your villa will be stocked with drinks (beer and soda), snacks and, of course, ice.
The meal plan is not required, but is offered for your convenience. Some guests prefer bringing their own provisions and either prepare meals themselves or request the housekeeper to prepare or help. If this is your first visit to Punta El Custodio, we recommend you take advantage of the meal plan. The big-box-stores (Costco, Sam's, Mega) are in Puerto Vallarta and if you are not familiar with the area and how to refrigerate food during transport, it can be a bit tricky. Those extremely familiar with the area can manage by shopping local markets, produce stands, fish stores, etc. But experience is key to knowing where to shop.
The menu is a personal choice, working with the respective provide and your housekeeper you can choose from a variety of options, ensuring you have a wonderful dining experience. Meals are prepared with fresh local ingredients and a good representation of local Mexican Cuisine. So be adventurous and try something new.
