Welcome to the dedicated site for the Feast of Tabernacles in Puerto Vallarta 2025. You will find the answers to most of your questions on this site. You can just scroll thru the information (we know it is a lot), but instead of sending a series of newsletters this year, we created this site. You can access this site for the most up-to-date general information. You can also come back often for sign-up lists and links to important websites.

REGISTRATION
Our registration process starts on our sister website https://www.regpack.com/reg/vallarta2025.
Step 1 - Register to attend Puerto Vallarta entering basic information. A $40 admin fee per account will also be added when you submit step 1 (This fee is non-refundable).
Step 2 - Once you are accepted you will receive a confirmation email with instruction to access Step 2. Here is where you will select your room configuration, schedule Ground Transportation and rent a radio for translations. A $400 deposit will be charged per room. This deposit is fully refundable until July 15th, 2025. You can register up to 3 rooms under the same registration form.
Step 3- On August 15, 2025 the final payment is due, this final payment is refundable until September 15, 2025.
Due to our contractual obligations we collect all the payments and then send a bulk payment to the hotel. Once you get to the hotel, no payment will be due.
Please double check your account, especially check-in and check-out dates, number of nights you are staying, and number of people in the room. If any of the information is incorrect, the final payment could be calculated with the wrong amount.
Any amount that is due will be charged to the credit on file. Your Hotel reservation at Friendly will be done using what you entered on your account on STEP 2. We will not be responsible for errors on the forms when you arrive at check-in. The form is sent to the hotel just as it was entered. What the hotel will base your reservation on, is the information that YOU entered.
It is very important that each room has the right number of people, age ranges and dates since all that determines the room cost and also the reservation with the hotel. You will be asked to show your passport when you check-in at the hotel.
FYI: In years past, there was a tourist entry form that you had to keep and show when you were leaving the country. This form is no longer being used; instead, they will just stamp your passport. There is still a customs entry form to fill out in the plane before landing.
VERY IMPORTANT: You can check-in at noon upon your arrival, but your room won’t be available until 3:00 pm. They will give you a bracelet after check-in so you can have lunch and drinks in the meantime. There are nice public bathrooms on the first floor, close to the lobby. The bell boy can hold your luggage until your room is ready and you can use all the other hotel amenities in the meantime.
FINAL PAYMENT IS AUGUST 15th, 2025 - HOW TO CHECK YOUR FORM
Log back in to double check your information prior to August 15th. This is the day that final payment is due. You need to check the dates that you selected on Step 2 form. Please see below for instructions on how to check your dates. If you need to change your dates, and the cart shows it is locked, just contact me at fotmxpv@gmail.com to unlock it.
ACTIVITIES
As a tourist destination, PV has many activities to offer. Hotel Friendly has a tourism desk in the lobby that can help you plan for any of these activities. Since this year the Church will not officially sponsor any outside activities, it is up to each family to plan. You can contact Eduardo Vilchis at ventas@vallarta-tours.mx to coordinate directly with him. Many of these activities require an early departure, so we will have afternoon services one day, to allow people to carry out their activities during the day. Please make sure you coordinate transportation to each of the activities as well. You might also be able to negotiate lower prices if you can get bigger groups to attend, just ask Eduardo.
Our discounted prices are listed in US dollars:
- Dolphin Encounter = $85
- Sea Lion Encounter = $85 (adult), $59 (children 1-11)
- Pirate Cruise = $160 adults, $75 children 4-11 (no open bar)
- ATV = 114 TBD / Double = $196 per ATV (2 passengers)
- ATV RZR = for 2 pax $280 / for 4 pax = $357
- Verano Canopy Zip line = $97 (adult), $69 (5-11 yr old), Companions $33

- Rhythms of the Night - $169 (adult VIP) , Adult Open Bar $135, $169 (Child VIP 6 to 11)
There are many more activities, so ask Eduardo if you would like to explore other options.
WARNING: Please note that there will be people out on the beach and other areas trying to sell tours at every turn. The only company we can vouch for, is the Tourism office in the Hotel Lobby that we recommend above. Eduardo will make sure you are booked with a reputable company. For those looking to book online, please note that the websites that offer 30% off are misleading since they will add service fees and taxes once you check-out. The prices we listed above are ALL-IN. Stay away from street sellers trying to offer you deals, they will take your money and never show up.

YOUTH INSTRUCTION PROGRAM
There will be one Bible class for children 4-12. The class will be held at the air-conditioned Blue restaurant (the one on the second floor of the El Palmar beach restaurant). If you would like to volunteer to serve in this area or have any questions, please email fotmxpv@gmail.com
RADIOS
Services alternate between English and Spanish. You will need a radio with FM receiver in order to listen to the simultaneous translation. You can bring your own (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) or you can sign up and rent one. The price to rent a radio is $10 for the entire Feast, payable in cash at the time you pick it up. If you wish, you can bring headphone splitters so you can have 2 people listening from one device (we will have a limited amount of splitters available at the Feast as well). FYI: Some cell phones have FM receivers built-in. iPhones DO NOT have antennas and apps that you download will not work since the signal is only within the premises of the hotel. Radio pickup will be announced on the schedule once finalized.
TRANSLATION
There are two meeting rooms for services: The main hall, and the Caracol meeting hall are located on the same floor just up the stairs from the lobby. The main hall will have services in the native language for that day. The Coral room will broadcast thru the speakers the translation. This is to help members that are having problems with their radios and provide an alternative. The Caracol room will fluctuate according to overflows, so check the sign outside to show what language will be broadcasted thru the speakers each day.
RESERVED SEATS
Every year we reserve seats in the meeting halls for people with different needs and responsibilities: handicapped, hard of hearing, elderly, parents with small children, ushers and their families, ministers on duty (for anointing and/or counseling), first-aid, etc. This year we have added a reserved section for teens (12 to 19) in the main hall, to give them more opportunities of being together. They will be expected to be well behaved during Services and arrive on time. If their seats have not been occupied by the beginning of Services, the seats will be made available to other people by the ushers. We ask everyone to be respectful of all assigned seats, rows and sections to avoid inconveniences and make it easier on the ushers.
HOLY DAY OFFERINGS
We ask for you to send your Holy Day offerings to the home office PRIOR to the start of the Feast if you would like the tax deduction. If you would prefer to give your offering that will help the Mexican Work, you can bring cash and put it in the envelop on the High Days. All checks will be sent to the Home Offie, but all cash will stay to help with the preaching efforts and preparing a people in Mexico and they will not be tax deductible.
HYMNS DURING SERVICES
We plan to project the hymns on a screen in English and Spanish, but if you wish, you can still bring your hymnals.
ETIQUETTE FOR SERVICES
Consider these guidelines, based on biblical principles of courtesy and respect:
- Be on Time: While a few brethren will occasionally be late for Church Services, regularly coming late to Services without a legitimate reason shows a lack of respect for both God and the membership. Please do your best to be on time each day.
- Hymns: Singing praises to God is the actual beginning of our Services honoring God. We will be projecting the lyrics in English and in Spanish, so you do not need to bring your hymnal.
- During Church Services: With a large number of members coming together for the Feast of Tabernacles, we often need to address extra people seated in or wandering through the lobby, the hallways outside the meeting hall and/or the back of the meeting hall. While there may be a reason for a few people to be in these areas during Services, it is generally inappropriate to be fellowshipping or wandering around in the lobby or the back of the hall while Services are being conducted. Ushers and security personnel will be assigned to limit unnecessary traffic in these areas. Please cooperate by remaining in your seat during the Services unless given an assignment or having a need that would require otherwise. Parents, make sure your children, including teenagers, don’t stay wandering outside the meeting rooms after going to the restrooms.
- Children: Children are a wonderful blessing! However, parents should focus on the need to train their children to sit or be occupied quietly during Services. It does take work, effort and patience. If a child’s behavior becomes disruptive, one of the parents should as quietly as possible take the child from Services, and tend to his or her needs.
- Congregation’s Response: On the other hand, as parents are working with their small children, we all should show patience and support for them.
- Cell Phones: Cell phones should be turned off or put on vibrate during Church Services. If it is necessary to answer a call during Services, you should do so outside the meeting hall so as not to disturb others around you.
- Computer/Video Games: Whether to allow any video games at Services is a parental choice. However, many of them are not quiet and can be distracting. If a child is old enough to play a video game, he or she is likely old enough to learn from the Services.
- Parents’ Area: Parent’s Room as such is not available during Services. However, there will be a section on the back of El Caracol overflow room with a nursing area and changing table.
TEENS AND YOUNG ADULTS MEET & GREET
Like every year, the teens and young adults will have an opportunity to meet their peers. This activity is always a big hit, and it gives the young people the chance to mingle and get to know each other right at the beginning of the Feast and before the dance prepared for them that night, after the Holy Day is over. We want to encourage every teen (from 12 up) and young adult to attend this fun activity. If the weather is too hot or rainy, we’ll move the event indoors. Please sign up here https://forms.gle/rEKhjGBpjr1UMVCM7 for the teens and HERE for the Young Adults https://forms.gle/DgKXAKfN5itAaFUU9
SINGLES’ MEET AND GREET
Singles of all ages will have a chance to get to know each other or see old friends. For this purpose, there will be a get-together and cocktail. The attendees will be able to order snacks and drinks at the bar by the pool. Please sign up here https://forms.gle/E88GuPeecV7AiCGPA
GROUND TRANSPORTATION
If you would like to have transportation from the airport (PVR) to the Hotel, we have contracted VIP Aeromovil, a taxi service with offices inside the airport. Price will be approximately $25 per taxi for 3 people.
VIP Aeromóvil will provide transportation for our group to Hotel Friendly for a fee. You will pay them directly in cash according to the number of passengers.
You must have cash and pay directly to the Taxi service. They have a booth just as you are about to exit the airport that says Aeromóvil.
If you would like to sign up, we need your flight information by October 1st. Please log on to your RegPack account, click on your "Complete registration" button on your dashboard, then when you reach any of the forms, you can click the progress bar at the top, you will see the Ground Transportation form there to enter your info.
Payment is in cash and given to the taxi driver. US dollars are accepted. We are not be responsible for parties that did not submit their flight information on time
On the return trip from the hotel to the airport, it is cheaper and easier to just use the hotel taxis and vans. We will not coordinate transportation TO the airport. Hotel staff can help you with this request once you are ready to leave the hotel. Ask the bell boys if you need a taxi to the airport and they will call one for you.
If the Aeromovil VIP is closed or you can’t locate them, you can easily arrange a taxi on your own. This is a good alternative for people that have last minute schedule changes or they don't see Aeromovil VIP services.
Try to avoid the people that are trying to sell you timeshares once you pass customs even if they tell you they can get you a taxi. Just wave "no" and keep going until you are outside.
HOTEL INFORMATION
IRONS AND LAUNDRY
The hotel provides irons, ironing boards. In the bathrooms you'll find and hair dryers and shampoo and body wash dispensers (no conditioner).
The hotel doesn’t have self-service laundry and drying facilities, but does provide laundry services at hotel prices (it is quite pricey so please make sure you double-check the prices before opting to use this service). You’ll find a list of prices by item in your closet.
LAUNDROMAT
There is a Laundromat around the corner from the Hotel. You can buy the tokens in the mini-mart right next door. They are $70 pesos for each washer and $70 for each dryer. The Laundromat is located on the main road, you exit the hotel and make a left by the security guard booth, then just walk down the street towards
ELECTRIC VOLTAGE
It is 110 volts, just like in the US, so all your AC gadgets work fine—but you might want to bring an extension cord since the rooms don't have many outlets. The normal rooms we will use are Holiday Inn style with air conditioning, but don't have minibars since all the snacks, food, and drinks can be found at the different drink and food stations in the lobby or restaurants. The hotel provides an ice bucket that you can fill at the restaurant to keep your drinks cold in the room.
HAND SANITIZERS
To avoid and minimize the transmission of illnesses at the restaurants, there will be people assigned at the entrance of every restaurant to squirt some hand sanitizer in your hands as you come in and ask to be seated, just as they do in ocean cruises. This will ensure that all hands are sanitized before touching the serving utensils at the buffets.
VEGETABLES AND FRUITS
All the vegetables and fruits served at the restaurants are double-washed with purified water.
DRINKING WATER
Puerto Vallarta has one of the best drinking waters in the region, but we strongly recommend drinking only purified water. If you want to buy bottled water, you can do so at the convenience store before entering the road to the hotel (La Palmita Market and Deli, subject to change if the mall is demolished before the Feast) but there is always a purified water dispenser in the main restaurant, Villa Linda, where you can refill your empty bottles. Also, in the hallways of every floor there are water dispensers where you can refill your empty bottles. There are no water dispensers in the other restaurants, but the waiters will refill your bottles with purified water upon request. Also, there are hot and cold water dispensers in all the hallways throughout the hotel.
Water Bottles - The hotel provides every room with 1 disposable water bottle (with purified water) per adult on the first day only. After that, it’s your responsibility to make sure you have enough water in your room. At the time of check-in, every person 12 and above will be given a reusable plastic bottle to be refilled during you stay.
Straws - No straws of any kind are provided at the hotel with your drinks. If you want straws for you or your children, bring your own, preferably the reusable kind.
FOOD
The hotel will serve only biblically clean foods, and no lard will be used to cook. There will be an open bar with white and red wine, beer and mixed drinks. But please, remember to drink moderately and give others a good example of what keeping the FOT is all about.
Gluten: For any attendees that have gluten or lactose intolerance, the hotel chef can accommodate your needs as much as possible but this is an all-inclusive resort and we cannot accommodate highly sensitive diets. We highly recommend to bring any specialty food since gluten free products are not readily available in Mexico (GF bread, treats, snacks, bars, etc.). The chef can cook and prepare gluten free foods upon request (noodles, pancakes, limited desserts) but this food will be cooked in the general kitchen that prepares non-GF food.
TOWELS
The hotel provides towels for the pool. You will receive a card upon check-in to exchange it for a towel in the main pool area. When you are done with the towel, you turn it back in and you will get your card back. You can do this as many times as you wish, so no need to keep the wet towels in your room.
TIPS AT THE HOTEL
The rate that you are paying includes tips for the hotel staff. However, it is a good idea to bring dollar bills to leave daily around 1 or 2 dollars on the table for the servers if you feel they gave you good service. They will bring you drinks to the beach or the swimming pools or Jacuzzi on request and you can also tip them if you want to. Many people over the years have commented on the exceptional service we received at the Hotel Friendly and felt that it was important to leave a tip during meals. The personnel really appreciates it.
MEDICAL SERVICES
In case you need medical attention, there is a doctor and a nurse in the hotel from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm. The rest of the time they are on call. The doctor there is Dr. Luis Mora, and you can find him in the Spa area or just ask about him at the front desk. For any additional information about insurance coverage, please ask the doctor or at the front desk. They will give you a handout with the details or you can contact your insurance agent.
We strongly recommend you bring all the medications you usually take. Mexico is very strict about the selling of certain medications without a prescription, including antibiotics, just like in the US. You can get a prescription from a local doctor, but you’ll have to pay for the consultation in order to obtain it.
For those with health issues, please note that the Emergency Room in Puerto Vallarta is very expensive, they will put a $6000 USD hold on your credit card upon arrival. We highly recommend buying travelers insurance if you have preexisting conditions that might worsen. For those seniors traveling alone that have health problems, please make sure you have someone that can help you in case of an emergency.
BELONGINGS LEFT IN ROOMS
In previous years, many items were either forgotten in the rooms or left in them to be thrown away. It took much time to find out what the owner of those items wanted to do with them, bring them to the States and then mail them out to each person. If you leave in your room some item (s) that you consider unusable, please leave them in the trash cans in your room. If you prefer to give them to the housekeeper or some of the employees, you can do so, but they will ask you to fill a simple form to confirm that it’s a gift. That’s the only way the employees can take it out of the hotel. If you just want to leave them for someone else to decide what to do with them, leave a note by the object saying “To GIVE AWAY”. If after going home you think you might have left a valuable object in your room, please contact the hotel directly.
ATM MACHINES
Some have asked about the availability of ATM machines in Puerto Vallarta. There are plenty of ATM machines close by. One is in the lobby of the hotel Friendly, and there are several in the mall across the street from the hotel. The money will come out in pesos. We recommend you give your credit or debit card's Customer Service a call letting them know you will be traveling to Puerto Vallarta, so they don’t consider your withdrawals as suspicious card activity. The withdrawal charge varies according to the credit card.
MONEY EXCHANGE
You will be able to pay in cash with US dollars for most things in Puerto Vallarta, but in doing so, most of the time the exchange rate the shops give you is not the most convenient. We recommend paying in Mexican pesos for things like taxi rides and laundry coins, but it’s just a suggestion. You can exchange money at the airport (not a very good rate) or in the shopping mall across the street from the hotel, where there is a money exchange office with better rates next to Soriana, the big supermarket there.
LOST AND FOUND
Lost and found items will be taken to the Information Table and placed in a box for such purpose. Please check it occasionally in case anyone in your party has lost an item. If you find a lost item, you can turn it in at the same location. At the conclusion of the Feast any unclaimed items will be donated to charity.
Warning: Even though the Hotel will be used exclusively by Church members, there are many employees and maintenance crews constantly working and circulating in the hotel. Also, the public areas can be accessed through the beach by non-church individuals. For such reasons, we highly recommend not to leave any belongings (especially valuables such as wallets, cameras, cell phones, iPads, sunglasses, etc.) unattended around the pools, at the beach, in the lobby, the restaurants, etc., and suggest using the safe in each room. The Church will not be held responsible for any losses that happen in the Hotel, especially in the public areas.
SECURITY
If you plan to be out at night, please sign the information list at the bell hop station next to the stairs of the Hotel entrance, in case you need to be contacted or if you lose something. This list will be checked periodically by the security staff of our Church. Please use the hotel taxis when you can, since if anything is left with them it can be returned to the hotel.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
In previous years, we have had an occasional problem with people who work for night clubs in questionable areas of Puerto Vallarta who have come to the hotel and offered free tickets to entice our young people. As we have stated, Puerto Vallarta is still a pretty safe place within Mexico, but there is no guarantee you’ll be spared of trouble or something worse if you get yourself in dangerous places. Please don’t expose yourself to unnecessary risks and remember that you will be an outsider in a foreign country. You can have fun, but you should also use wisdom and caution. And first and foremost, never forget that you are there primarily to keep God’s Feast.
KID’S CLUB
The hotel provides childcare services at certain hours of the day for children 4 to 12 at the Kid’s Club, located beside the El Palmar restaurant (or first-floor beach restaurant). The girls in charge of the children entertain them with crafts, games, etc. The schedule will be posted in a few weeks. The parents must stay in the hotel while their children are being taken care of, and check on them occasionally. This service is available from 10am until 5pm on non-Holy Days.
If parents need additional childcare services, they should arrange their care hours and price with the staff in charge of the Kid’s Club.
CHILDREN'S COSTUME PARTY
Once again we will have a Children's Costume Party on the beach. If you want, bring your children dressed in costumes. They truly enjoy the chance of dressing up, and the parents can take fabulous pictures! Keep in mind that the temperatures can be warm and the party is held outside, so plan accordingly so your children will not sweat too much inside elaborate and heavy costumes. There will be actors and acrobats in Superhero costumes to entertain the children, so get your phones ready for some fun pictures. FOOD WARNING: There will be a candy bar and cupcakes prepared by the Hotel cooks. If your child has food allergies or intolerance to sugar, chocolate, etc., please check the ingredients before your child has a chance to eat them.
BLESSING OF THE CHILDREN
For children (up to 5 years old) that have not yet received the blessing, this will take place between the sermonette and the sermon on the Last Great Day. Parents, please sign-up the list on the Information Table and bring the children to the front of the auditorium when asked to do so on that day.
DRESS CODE
Some people have expressed to us their concern about the dress code in the hotel and the leisure areas like the beach and the swimming pools. Here are guidelines that have been applied the previous 11 years at this Feast site:
ATTIRE FOR SERVICES
We happily follow the Caribbean custom of wearing nice Hawaiian or Guayabera (also called Cubavera) shirts and slacks (instead of suits and ties). and closed toe shoes for the men. Women can wear modest summer dresses or skirts. Sandals are fine, no flip-flops. Remember, no shorts, rompers, or bermudas for Services or Bible Studies.
SWIMWEAR
Since the Feast will take place at a beach setting and it is an international site, modest one-piece swimsuits or tankinis for women (NO bikinis), and modest bathing suits for men (shorts, no Speedos) are required. We endorse the same rules that apply at UCG Youth Camps. Remember that we are all going to be sharing the same leisure areas for at least 8 days, so we should be mindful not to offend others and give a good example of our Christian demeanor.
MASSAGE AND SPA AT THE HOTEL
Once again we have negotiated a special price for Church members to get massages at the Feast. Hotel Friendly has a spa on the second floor and they have given us a special rate of $60 for a 50 min. and $110 for a couples massage (price for 2 people). They will also offer a 20% discount on all the other services that they provide. They also have a sauna and jacuzzi available. Appointments must be booked prior to the Feast. Sign-up at http://friendlyspa2025.setmore.com/friendly-spa--fot-mexico--2025
Tips are appreciated ($5-$10) and are better given directly to the massage therapist in cash.
FAQs
Q: Do I need to call the hotel to make my room selections?
A: No, the hotel will receive all your preferences as part of the form you submitted on this website. You will not need to call the hotel to make your room selections. Please make sure you fill out all the forms in full.
Q: I have not confirmed my arrival and departure dates, can I make changes after I pay for the deposit?
A: Yes, many people will not have their confirmed dates for a few months, so you can put your tentative information under STEP 2 and just revise the dates after you have your plane tickets. Pricing will fluctuate so we ask that all changes be made by the Final Payment deadline of August 15th.
Q: I heard from someone that went that we could not wear bikinis during the Feast, is this true?
A: Since the Feast will take place at a beach setting and it is an international site, modest one-piece swimsuits or tankinis for women (no bikinis), and modest bathing suits for men (shorts, no Speedos) are required. We endorse the same rules that apply at UCG Youth camps. Remember we are all going to be sharing the same leisure areas for at least 8 days, so we should be mindful not to offend others and give a good example of our Christian demeanor.
Every year we have many complaints from members that expressed to us their concern about the dress code in the hotel and the leisure areas, so we want to emphasize this so everyone can plan accordingly.
Q: I have a couple of questions regarding a special situation, who do I contact?
A: For questions regarding checks, deposits and payments, registration, rooms, transportation, activities, etc., please email Debbie Orsak at FOTMXPV@gmail.com
For special situations please contact Mario Seiglie at mario_seiglie@ucg.org.
Q: I would like to organize a private event (baby shower, bridal shower, wedding, etc.). Is this permitted?
A: We understand this is a beautiful venue to celebrate special occasions. Nevertheless, we can no longer accommodate organized private events (baby showers, bridal showers, weddings, etc) that utilize the Hotel Friendly's staff and resources during the week of the Feast. This puts a tremendous toll on the staff and the limited resources we have available, also disrupting the flow of things for the rest of the guests. Fortunately, Puerto Vallarta has an abundance of venues (hotels and restaurants) available for this purpose :)
