Puerto Vallarta Business Update August 29 2021

Puerto Vallarta Business Update August 29 2021 Hurricane Nora passed by Puerto Vallarta August 28 2021 bringing some major destruction mostly from flooding in limited areas of the city. Puerto Vallarta experienced a brief period of high winds and heavy rain Saturday evening into early Sunday morning. We have reports of major damage in areas along the Rio Cuale and one report of a death. There is street flooding, reports of water shortages in some colonias, some building damage and both roads into old town are closed. Residents along the River Cuale have been hit very hard. Keep those people in your thoughts and prayers and check on people you know or mark yourself safe. We will add business information as they come in so check back for updates.

From the City No crossing of Rio Cuale on foot or car into Old town. You must access old town by the Libramiento or the tunnel road. A part of old town near the rio Cuale (Incanto and Antropology) is closed until further notice.  Of course this will disrupt the public bus system into old town.

We hope everyone stays safe and checks on your friends and family. All information reported is believed to be accurate but subject to change and updates. Please see the end of the post for how you can help.

Road 200 going south to Mismaloya/Boca and El Tuito reports on social media as of 1pm 8/29 report Road 200 open to Playas Gemelas. There are reports the electricity is out in Boca De Tomatlan due to downed power lines, falling trees, and many landslides. CFE says it would be days before they could make repairs, as it was far worst further South in Tomatlan and El Tuito with reports of mudslides also.
The colonias of Buenos Aires, Remance, Canoas, Caloso and Paso Ancho along the River Cuale toward Canopy Eden, Amaria Villas, El Rio BBQ have been severely impacted. Avoid leisure travel there but check on friends, family and elderly.

Here is the latest regarding specific Puerto Vallarta gay businesses.

Amaria Villas is not damaged but without electricity and reports surrounding areas have been severely impacted. Four wheelers are out providing assistance.

Ryan Donner & Associates office and Joint Co-working Hotel is still standing. The hotel guests were evacuated prior to the arrival of the high waters, but Bonito Kitchen & Bar is gone along with the apartments above it. It appears that once the bridge began to collapse, it undermined the foundation of the front corner of the building. The water eroded the soil under the foundation which caused the eventual collapse of that portion of the building. The rest of the building is supported by columns that go into the bedrock below. Civil Protection will not allow us into the building to assess further damages. Please avoid traveling through town to get to Emiliano Zapata; instead take the main highway to get in and out of old town.
