Yelapa is truly unique. A small village of about 1,500 native residents, now with electricity that arrives by wire and not by solar cell. There used to be only five phones - one is in the hotel but more are arriving; no roads - no vehicles; 300 resident/semi-resident Gringos; no police force - say no more! Well. that's changed, there's now a local police force.
Many years ago a few gringos discovered Yelapa and found it to their liking and moved in. In those days there were no brick or cement houses only Palapas, palm frond roofs on four or more posts with maybe some bamboo walls for privacy and a sleeping loft. If you were lucky you had bottled gas, shipped in by panga from Boca de Tomatlan, or just wood to cook on.
I first discovered Yelapa in 1984. I had gone with my friend Arturo to Puerto Vallarta. I had always wanted to go there since I had seen "Night of the Iguana". I love the idea of tropical locations. After we'd been in Puerto Vallarta a few days, we took a day trip down the coast to Yelapa. As soon as the boat came around into the little bay of Yelapa, I knew this was MY place! It was so strange, I felt in tune and at home. For me, it is a place where I no longer stop at the boundary of my body... you know... this is Paul, everything outside of Paul is other! In Yelapa, I lose that boundary and start spreading out into the jungle, the sky and the sea and KNOW all of it is me. convention, incentive, groups, post-production, weddings, video, puerto, vallarta, news, hotel, in-house, corporate, real, estate, documentary, beaches, activities, Promovision, photography, photographer, events, hotels, Marriott, Dreams, Westin, Velas, casa, villa, promotion, Sheraton, Four Seasons, Paradise, Marival, travel, management, destination, story, banderasnews, planner, coordinator, net, com, TV,
