I always drink bottled water but do use the tap water for brushing teeth and making coffee. I also just use plain tap water to wash fruits & veggies and have never gotten sick.
Can I drink the water in Puerto Vallarta?

I drink the water, eat the fruits and veggies. Consume anything that looks edible. No sickness ever, except too much tequila during the first trip to PV and staying at the GCP. I went alittle overboard with the margaritas
I drink the water straight from the tap...never a problem. I DO chill it in the fridge though!
Did you know... :)
Usually you get one bottle of water (for each person) a day left in your room.
If you need more bottled water just take your empty to the bar or Restaurant at your resort and they will refill it for you.:)

Now I know who the trouble maker of the site is! :twisted: :evil: :o
I guess it is a bit of a gamble. If you eat out, you just don’t know what the food preparation was. We use bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth. We use antiseptic hand wipes as required and water shoes when in the ocean. We don’t think about it now, its automatic. We have always had a great time and just try to cut down the odds.
Oh BTW, in regards to getting sick in Mexico, what about the E.coli outbreak in the good old US of A.? Who would have thought eating raw spinich (something that is extremly healthy) could hurt you so badly.
My wife and I were in PV and NV last May (5/1-5/6). The only ill I suffered to my plumbing was due to the rich food served at the Japanese restaurant at the Vallarta Palace. The food was great, but too rich for my stomach…. Could have been caused by the copious amount of margaritas I drank that day too! Otherwise, I drank straight from the facet every day!
First post here! We miss PV terribly! Want to get back there soon! We’ll have to wait until after our first child is born in Feb….

our water dept of vallarta
claims that the water has been cerfied drinkable water
great
that is from the water plant or there subwater pumps through out the city
but by the time it reaches your tap it had passed thru all type of good and bad piping
there are still a lot of galvanized pipes that are rusted as well when there is a leak dirt passes thru
so stick with bottled water
coca cola (ciel) and pepsi (santori) are the best that sells for 21 pesos for 20 liters of water
there are others
but they are not as clean
buen salud

As one who suffered thru the infamous Hyatt diet of Cook county I am
familiar with food and water transmitted illness. Our first trip to PV and
I was sick within 5 hours.
Two changes in routine and I have had no problems since-
I eat nothing at DFW, and my diet the first 24 hours in PV is light non-
greasy food. Very very little alcohol
Most new visitors overdo on rich food, drink, and activities !!!

You can drink
Hi,
you can drink the Puerto vallarta water. Puetro vallarta has the cleanest water in Mexico. The water there is treated and purified, but the distribution system is not so perfect.Then why you take the chance,you drink bottled water.
