The Hotel Mayto

We got to the Hotel Mayto around 2:00 and determined this was a good place for lunch and beers. It is a nice looking place, kind of square and sixties looking, with a pool and a restaurant and gift shop. The restaurant is nicely shaded and has both Mexican and American food. This is also the location of the official Turtle Rescue program in the area that is supported by the Mexican government. From what we would learn from Casi on our next trip down, the program is more of a tourist attraction so it seems. However we didn't the place so I can't really say what it was like. What Michael and I did get to see though, was whales! Breaching whales. There was a Mum and her calf. I felt really privileged to watch them playing in the sea. As for the hotel, the food was pretty good and the beer was cold. We didn't want to stop exploring the area, but we had to get back to PV as we were heading out for home the next day. Here is the hotel:

On the way back to Puerto Vallarta Michael and I decided that we would return. We had stumbled upon a beautiful place with the opportunity to do something really good. We decided to come back and help Casi with his enclosures, and his turtles.
