Get a Head Start on Summer
MARCH 15, 2007. Isn't it time to banish those winter blues and get a head start on summer? There's no place better to get some sun, relaxation and blood-pumping adventure than Verana, a boutique luxury hotel nestled on a hilltop in Yelapa, 30 miles south of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Verana is offering two extraordinary pre-summer specials - The Spa Retreat Special and The Active Start Special - from April 17 to May 15. Whether you want to unwind under the Mexican sun and have one of their highly-trained masseuses gently rub your stresses away, or lose a few pesky pounds before summer while exploring Yelapa's tropical beauty, Verana has a package designed just for you.
The adventure starts the moment you step off the plane in Puerto Vallarta. First, there's a taxi ride, followed by an exhilarating boat trip across a beautiful bay, and finally a short hike through the jungle up to the property (no worries, mules haul your luggage!).
Once you reach your destination, get ready to be indulged! A selection of decadent spa treatments or invigorating adventure activities will be prepared for you and included in your choice of either the Spa Retreat Special or the Active Start Special. Here are some details:
