I have been to several resorts in Mexico, and my favorite was Puerto Vallarta. It was a lot less touristy than the other seaside areas, the crowd was more cosmopolitan (European and Canadian), and the natives were not as pushy. The resorts on PV control the natives; they cannot come up to you on the beach without you asking them to approach. The vendors are also dressed appropriately in trousers and white short-sleeved dress shirts.

The last time I was there was in the late 90s, so I can't say which are the new and best resorts. You will need to ask yourself if you want an all-inclusive resort or not, if you want to be in walking distance to the markets or somewhere it's quieter, and what the rooms are like. I stayed in a Condo complex in a Junior Suite with a kitchenette. This allowed for us to store lots of Corona in the refrigerator, leche for our coffee and a lot of wonderful pastries.

I stayed north of PV, but south of Nuevo Vallarta. I loved the area. Most things were a very inexpensive cab-ride away. We also took in 2 day-cruises, which were inclusive of breakfast, lunch and beer.
