San Francisco offers a slice of Mexican coastal life

Nestled on Mexico's sun-kissed central Pacific coast, less than an hour by car from the cosmopolitan resort town of Puerto Vallerta, San Francisco offers an altogether more tranquil ambience than its internationally-renowned neighbor. Also commonly known as San Pancho, this once-sleepy fishing village occupies an idyllic spot, with a stretch of beach on one side, and the lush, expansive Sierra de Vallejo Biosphere Reserve on the other. A laid-pack pace of life prevails, but dynamic dining, music and arts scenes ensure that there's never a dull moment. San Francisco vacation rentals range from cozy condos to opulent beachfront estates.
