			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As if its name doesn&#8217;t give it away, the newest member of the <a href="http://www.nowresorts.com">Now Resorts &amp; Spas</a> family, <a href="http://www.nowresorts.com/amber/">Now Amber Puerto Vallarta </a>is situated in the beautiful town of Puerto Vallarta. We will be welcoming our first guests this April! In addition to the Unlimited-Luxury® vacation at Now Amber, we invite our guests to explore the exciting sites of the city we call home.</p>
<p>Puerto Vallarta was once named La Ciudad Mas Amigable en el Mundo, or friendliest city in the world, a name that it continues to live it up to even today. Puerto Vallarta features open-air cafés, chic boutiques and modern art galleries lining the seaside sidewalk.  This quaint town is surrounded by the gorgeous natural beauty of the San Madre Mountains, lush jungles and Bahía de Banderas, which serves as Puerto Vallarta’s aquatic playground. It begins where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, forming one of the largest bays in the world and the largest in Mexico. The mountains and jungles offer a wealth of land-based adventures, from canopy tours to cultural exploration of the Huichol. When the sun goes down, the fun continues at Puerto Vallarta’s vast array of nightclubs.</p>
<p>Puerto Vallarta’s mix of cobblestone streets and contemporary zones with its vast array of activities makes it an easy and worthwhile place to visit. As Matt Long of <a href="http://landlopers.com/2012/01/01/puerto-vallarta-tourist/">Landlopers</a><a href="http://landlopers.com/2012/01/01/puerto-vallarta-tourist/"> </a>recently said about his visit to Puerto Vallarta, &#8220;Travel isn’t only about relaxing on the beach and getting away from it all. A truly great trip is about exploration and education; learning more about the local destination you are visiting.&#8221;</p>
<p>Not only is it easy to grab a cab and spend the day or night in downtown Puerto Vallarta, but it&#8217;s just simple to immerse yourself in Puerto Vallarta&#8217;s culture right at our resorts. From local artists and menu additions to interactions with our staff, visiting Now Amber Puerto Vallarta will allow you to experience this fabulous town firsthand.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nowresorts.com/amber/">Book your stay</a> at Now Amber today with a special introductory rate starting at only $162 per person.  We look forward to welcoming you this spring!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know how the saying goes, &#8220;A fish taco a day keeps the doctor away.&#8221; Okay, maybe that&#8217;s not how it goes, but here at <a title="Aloha, Football Fans" href="http://www.nowresorts.com">Now Resorts &amp; Spas</a>, our fish tacos are out of this world and guests just can&#8217;t get enough of them. In fact, they&#8217;re one of our most popular dishes and guests can often be found enjoying them every day of their vacation with us.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve visited us recently, you know just how good these tacos are! But for those of you who haven&#8217;t had the chance to try this delicious dish, we thought we&#8217;d share the recipe with you so you can make them at home.</p>
<p><strong>Ingredients</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>1 lb fresh fish fillets (Cod, Mahi Mahi or any other white fish)</li>
<li>Salt and Pepper</li>
<li>Olive Oil</li>
<li>1 dozen corn tortillas</li>
<li>Salsa (homemade or store bought)</li>
<li>1 Avocado</li>
<li>Cabbage</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What to do</strong></p>
<p>Soak the fish in cold water for one minute then pat dry with a paper towel. Add a few tablespoons of olive oil to a large skillet and cook the fish on medium heat. The fish should be barely translucent when cooked. Second, thinly slice the cabbage and avocado. Sprinkle the cabbage with cider vinegar and salt for flavor. Next, place the tortillas on a napkin or paper towel and heat them microwave on high for 20 to 25 seconds. This will absorb the moisture. Finally, assemble your tacos.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.nowresorts.com/jade/">Now Jade </a>and <a href="http://www.nowresorts.com/sapphire/">Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun </a>celebrated Dia de Reyes with guests on Friday, January 10, 2012. The holiday is also referred to as Three Kings Day or the Epiphany. In Mexico this holiday is widely celebrated! It is a Catholic holiday that is celebrated on the same day each year, 12 days after Christmas. It is believed that baby Jesus was visited by three wise men giving him gifts gold, frankincense and myrrh.</p>
<p>Part of the traditions included drinking  <a href="http://nowresortsblog.com/2011/12/19/make-it-at-home-mayan-hot-cocoa/">Mayan hot chocolate </a>and cutting pieces of a sweetbread topped with candied fruit, Rosca de Reyes. This special sweetbread is a tradition that has been going on for years in Mexico. The shape of the bread is in an oval representing the kings’ crowns and the colorful candied fruit on top represent the jewels of the crown. Each guest cut their own slice of the bread and inside one of the pieces is hidden a figure of baby Jesus. It is said that the person who finds the figurine is responsible to host a party and prepare tamales to be enjoyed on February 2<sup>nd</sup>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://pinterest.com/nowresorts/">Pinterest</a> is a virtual pinboard that allows you to organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. We’re using this emerging social network to showcase <a href="http://www.nowresorts.com/">Now Resorts &amp; Spas</a>. We&#8217;re excited to be a part of a growing travel community in this visually stimulating social space. If you’re not familiar with the site, take a look at this glimpse of our profile below to give you an idea of its’ layout:</p>
<p><a href="http://hereandnowresorts.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/screen-shot-2012-01-10-at-10-18-37-am.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1341" title="Now Resorts Pinterest" src="http://hereandnowresorts.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/screen-shot-2012-01-10-at-10-18-37-am.png?w=500&#038;h=234" alt="" width="500" height="234" /></a></p>
<p>As you can see above, we have a pinboard for each of our resorts as well as boards that represent the locations and cultures our guests experience while staying with us. Pinterest works by aggregating photos that have been pinned by users into several categories like ‘beauty &amp; health’, ‘weddings &amp; events’, ‘travel &amp; places’, etc. You can use Pinterest to follow users who pin content that inspires you, and also use your own pinboards to save great photos, articles and ideas you find while surfing the web. Here’s an example of some of our favorite pins to date:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>2012 is upon us and the New Year means a time to renew and improve ourselves. And what better way to do that than by enjoying every moment of every day. Here at <a href="http://www.nowresorts.com">Now Resorts &amp; Spas</a>, we try our best to savor each and every moment and constantly live in the now. Families who vacation with us are immediately introduced to this world when they visit our resorts.</p>
<p>Here are five ways you can live in the now this year and create cherished memories that will last a lifetime!</p>
<p><strong>1. Change Your Routine.</strong> As humans, we often find ourselves doing things exactly the same way every day. We don&#8217;t like change. But this year, change something that you normally do the same way. You&#8217;ll be surprised how exciting it feels!</p>
<p><strong>2. Laugh at Yourself.</strong> We often take ourselves way too seriously. This year, take a chance on doing something that you’re not good at and have fun laughing at yourself while doing it. Be open to fun and silliness.</p>
<p><strong>3. Be Spontaneous. </strong>We&#8217;re often waiting for that perfect moment to do something, but why? Think of something you’d love to do if you had more time, money, and other resources—and find a way to make it happen.</p>
<p><strong>4. Face Something Your Fear.</strong> The saying do one thing every day that scares you can really be a motto to live by. Try this for a few days and see how you feel.</p>
<p><strong>5. Forgive &amp; Release Resentment:</strong> We all hold grudges. This year, try to make it a point to forgive someone and release any resentment you have toward them.</p>
