Pacifico La Peñita de Jaltemba Puerto Vallarta recent customer reviews

Our ticket was for the bus to leave at 946. The staff said the bus was late and would not be arriving for 2 hours. We were forced to purchase another ticket on the bus that was sitting there going to puerto vallarta. The same bus line . Or we would have missed our connecting bus in puerto vallarta . Your ticket says it is non refundable. We were very disappointed in the service
