Already spent your fair share of time in Mexico’s most popular beach locales? Get off the beaten path and discover a new favorite destination in Mexico: San Francisco, also called San Pancho.

San Pancho is easily accessible from Licenciado Gustavo Díaz Ordaz International Airport (PVR) in Puerto Vallarta, so getting there is no problem. Once you’re there, however, you’ll feel worlds away from the busy and hectic tourist hubs like Cancún and Tulum.
For a quick luxury trip (or a longer trip), book a stay at a private villa like Casa Xzavian. This villa offers seven bedrooms and fits 14 guests, great for a friends’ trip or a trip with the extended family. Unlike a stay at a resort, you’ll enjoy the full privacy of your very own beachfront on the Pacific.

When you’re not spending time on the beach or at your villa, head into town and see why San Pancho is considered the region’s cultural heart, with its local restaurants, cafés, boutiques and art galleries. For those looking for a bit of action adventure, water sports, primarily surfing, remain a favorite, but mountain biking and hiking are also popular. As you trek into the nearby mountains for adventure, you’ll find more than 300 animal species.

If you’ve ever attempted to work on the go — not necessarily for a business trip, but just because your job offers the flexibility of remote working — you may have struggled with working from your hotel room. Your options are typically plugging your laptop in next to a tiny in-room table, if you’re lucky, or you’re stuck answering emails from your hotel bed — hardly conducive to productivity.
