La Peñita RV Resort Probably the Friendliest RV Park in Mexico
Carole Thacker can’t make their signature welcome drink quick enough for the hundreds of RV'ers that call this RV Park home for the winter. Like Carole and her husband Grant, many snowbirds come here year after year for the weather, the beaches and warm hospitality.
The Thacker’s have been coming to this RV Park for 11 years. When La Penita’s Mexican owner was going to call it quits three years ago, Carole convinced him to lease it to her instead. “I love this place too much to let it go.” And there is a lot to love. The town of La Penita is on the Pacific less than an hour drive from Puerto Vallarta and just North across the river from Rincon de Guayabitos. The weather is fantastic and the people lack the pretentious airs found at many resort communities.
“We are like a family here,” says Carole, "and we welcome newcomers to just join in. People keep coming back year after year because it is so much fun and we socialize a lot. You can enjoy the activities or just sit back and enjoy the sun.” Typically there are picnics, games, pot lucks and other joint activities. Wallyball, bridge, craft clubs. Fishing, boating and water sports are solidly part of the “Penita“ experience with boat launching and charter facilities close by.
“Tell them to ask for their welcome Margarita, “ says Carole. “Cold and hard.” La Penita RV Resort La Penita de Jaltemba Nayarit, Mexico fax 1-800-858-0601 email: cthacker@oberon.ark.com Phone November-May 01152 327 274 0996 (Note: The Bell's plan to collect their margaritas in La Penita this January and would love to meet you there!)
