There is a very nice Catholic Church in Bucerias. This is the little town north of Nuevo Vallarta. This week is the festival of the Lady of Peace so the entire town is in fesitival mode. Mass is in espanol.

church service onsite...

Check with the concierge at the MP and they will tell if there is a service onsite, I believe there is. Usually they are Catholic and in Spanish.
Another option would be to go into PV and go to the old Cathedral about 2 blocks up from the Malecon. While this is a stop for tours, it would be a special service to remember.

Our Lady of Guadalupe, the church with the crown in PV is a nice place for mass but it is not air-conditioned. It is a pretty brick and cement building that once full of sweaty people loses some of its charm. If you go here sit in the very back pews towards the center isle and pray for a breeze.

Our Lady of Peace, the church in Bucerias is smaller with trees and open windows. I would still sit in the back and pray for a breeze.

Another good thing about sitting in the back is you could leave without bothering anyone. To stay in back means ignoring the people that want you to move down, get up and let them through but keep your spot.

Sunday Mass

The closest Catholic Mass is at the new Catholic Church a block or two from the Paradise Village Mall. Mass is at 10:00 on Sunday. It is mostly in Spanish with some English during the sermon. You can take the free tourist bus from the bus stop near Sea Garden or a cab for a few dollars to the church. Hope this helps.

MP has Mass onsite. I forget though if it is on Sat night or Sun morning. It's outside but under cover and is in Spanish.

Try the concierge:
"Concierge MP N.V." <conciergenv@mayanpalace.com.mx>
Also, the above will provide you with free transportation from the airport to the MP. Request the pickup and they will send you a form on which you will fill in your info and send it back. Print the acknowledgement email and take it with you. When you arrive, don't talk to anyone in the "shark tank", but proceed to the exit where Miller (the company that provides the transportation) is located. A tip to the porter and driver would be appreciated. Beats paying for the taxi.
