Locals asking on Facebook for an 11‑day “off airport parking” option never land on a clear answer near PVR.
Private Long-Term Lot North Side gets mentioned as an idea more than a real, proven place. In a February Facebook thread, an 11‑day traveler to Licenciado Gustavo Díaz Ordaz Airport (PVR) asked for off‑airport parking and nobody could name a single north‑side private lot they personally use. That silence from frequent flyers says a lot: if this lot exists, it’s not in regular circulation or review loops.
The discussion points people away from the airport perimeter entirely and toward secured parking in town, sometimes 5–10 km from Terminal A and Terminal B, then a taxi or Uber ride in. One commenter literally suggested looking for “secured parking in town” instead of at the airport, which tells you that a dedicated Private Long-Term Lot North Side isn’t a known part of the local toolkit yet. You’re dealing with rumor, not a clearly signed business with posted hours and rates.
That same 11‑day poster complained they couldn’t find anything cheaper than the official airport lot, which charges published daily rates and sits directly opposite the terminal access road. The lack of transparent, traveler‑reviewed private long‑term parking north of the runway means you may spend more time hunting than you save in pesos. If a north‑side private operator exists, they aren’t publishing prices, photos, or shuttle times in the usual places.
Regulars in that group say they simply park at home or at a trusted spot in Puerto Vallarta, then budget 20–40 minutes for an Uber or taxi to PVR, gates in Terminal A or B. They skip chasing a mystery Private Long-Term Lot North Side altogether. Tip: before you bank on any off‑airport option, lock in a backup plan using the official airport lot or prearranged city parking with a firm price and address in writing.
