About This Lot
**I went to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico for a month and it inspired me to make this micro-lot for you.** And now you can have a little slice of Puerto Vallarta sunshine in your Sims 2 neighborhood too! There is so much to do on this small lot: shop surfboards and clothing, dine out while listening to live music, or even grab ice cream (if your simoleons are low haha). So many travel experiences I've had went into crafting this fun lot for you and I just know you are going to love all of the little details 💗. Plus with open-concept storefront providing an uninterrupted view of the beach your sims are going to have a blast and feel like they've enjoyed a tropical island vacation all from the comfort of their own neighborhood.

Extra CC and Mod Recommendations!
Certain items may not be included in the download because they are considered a mod, hack, or item that alters the game functionality. These items are not required to make the lot function; just fun to use and enhance your gameplay.
Items Not Included:
| Item Name | URL | Description |
|---|---|---|
| "Surf's Up!" - Functional Surf Board (Surfing Interaction and Set) | Link | Allows your sims to surf in the ocean and build their body skill. |
| "Surf's Up!" - Wall Mounted Surf Board Receptacle | Link | Hang and display your functional and decorative surf boards using this rack. I actually really love this and use it for other things all around town, like mounting the functional ironing boards by Jacky93Sims. |
| Ice Cream Roll Machine (Functional) | Link | Your sims can now enjoy the sunny weather with a bite of ice cream. This functional ice cream machine allows your sims to make and eat ice cream, all without a fridge. |
| SwingarmCo 27" Recolor (in white) | Link | Requires CEP. A simple all white recolor of the sims 2 base game object "SwingarmCo 27'" , I only keep the recolors I need, so the white recolor file in this case and then deleted the others from my downloads folder. |
| Taka MQ Laptop | Link | A functional CC item that expands your Sims' computer menu, including options like ordering express grocery deliveries. I love using this on my business lot to have employees study/train for their role. |
Fun & Recommended Mods:
| Item Name | URL | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Swimlogical Swim Sign | Link | Forces all sims on lots to change into swim clothing. |
| Specific Clothing Racks | Link | Allows you to assign the type of clothing that can be bought, per clothing rack, on any community lot. |
| Cheat Code: intProp maxNumOfVisitingSims # | Link | Technically, it’s a cheat code. However, with five employees working this lot, I’d recommend using it to increase the number of Sims allowed on the lot so you can have more than three customers at a time. |
