Travel to the Garden from Old Town, Puerto Vallarta takes approximately 30 minutes. The length of time you spend at the Garden depends on your schedule and what you’d like to do.

We recommend giving yourself at least 2-3 hours for your visit, but some choose to stay for the whole day or even come back again and again.

As a small non-profit heavily reliant on memberships and donations, we also rely on the Hacienda de Oro Restaurant’s contributions to maintain our general operations. For this reason, no outside food or beverages are permitted on the property.

Pets are welcome when kept on a leash in their owner’s control, and their waste is picked up immediately with a plastic bag. Extra fees of $100 pesos per pet applies. Member’s pets get in for free. Your pet may not run off-leash. Please control your pet and do not allow it to approach children or other animals (There are various animals who make the Garden their home).

Nope! We only accept reservations for parties over 12. All other tables are walk-in only, and we can generally seat your party immediately. During high season between December and March we may have waits of 20 minutes or less.
