So....... last weekend I got to spend 2 wonderful days at my most favorite place on earth, heaven on earth {for realz!!} this place is so magical I feel like I float when I am there, all my worries go away... everything is..... PERFECT.
At this point you probably think I've completely lost it......... but, my friends, such place EXISTS. Just look at our smiles....................... {and excuse the crappy blackberry pics}
YELAPA is this beach village located a 40 minute speed-boat ride south of Puerto Vallarta... SAY WHAAT!? speed-boat? well...... you see.......... there is NO ROAD, no cel phone reception, no nothing. And there are some gorgeous [and crazy cheap!!!] ocean-front places where you can stay and listen to the waves all night.
Infinity Pool, Yelapa style................. HELL to the YES!
This was our view in the morning - YES PEOPLE. I took this photo. With my celphone!
There's my little monkey playing around the pool at 8am {god bless him}
My friend owns this restaurant {Angelina's Garden = the BEST in Yelapa} and she got up and made him his HotCakes the way he likes them ¨{thank you girl!!!!!!!!!!! we love you.}
You see.... Yelapa is not so much a place as it is a state of mind. REALLY. Once you step off the boat you immediately feel welcome and it's almost like time stops. Life here it's simple, it feels like another world. No cars, buses, trucks, roads... you can't help but feel connected with nature and the wonderful people who live there. Walk to the waterfall.... enjoy the river... the ocean, the birds... aaaaaahhh.........
In the 60's it was 'discovered' by some stars of the music and movie industries. The likes of Bob Dylan, David Crosby ,Steven Stills, Graham Nash, Stevie Wonder, Elizabeth Taylor, Jack Nicholson, Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper have strolled it's beach.
Piped water from the river was eventually put in by an American engineer who married the daughter of one of the main families there, forever after called "Pipeline Jim". HA!
You'd better visit and PRONTO. Before modern life reaches this paradise.
{This weekend we stayed at a little place that look EXACTLY like that cute little house in The Blue Lagoon} Yup, that felt gooooood..........

Came via Splendorosa. Hi. :)
Yelapa looks amazing. Years ago we stayed at La Jolla De Mismaloya in P.V. and it was also frequented by Elizabeth Taylor. That part of the pacific is a magical place. Miss it. Looks like you had an amazing time. Thanks for posting the pics, and letting us see that lovely part of the world.
