Wi-Fi in port?

[StarSong]

I own a business and need to spend a little time responding to emails while on vacation. From what I hear the ship wi-fi is agonizingly slow and costly. Does anyone know where there is free internet near the ports so that I can bring my laptop, take care of business, and then put it back in my room for the rest of the day?

 

Before any rips me a new one, I know that the electronic leash means I'm not FULLY getting away from it all. However, without the magic of the Internet there'd be no chance for a vacation right now, so I wouldn't be able to get away from any of it! :D

 

Is there a Starbucks or similar cafe in Cabo, PV or Mazatlan?

Opposite the cruise-terminal in Puerto vallarta you will see the "galleria Mall". Inside there you will have free Wifi at a.o. Starboecks and various places in the food-court.

Also, a little further down the road is Peninsula Mall which also has a Starbuck's with outside seating in case you want to be outside while you work. (The one at the Galerias is upstairs, inside) The Peninsula Mall is about a kilometer or so walk or a 5.5 Peso bus ride. If you go to the Galerias Mall, on the second floor is a balcony area that the WIFI may reach and it is worth checking out as the view of your ship from there is awesome! Bring your camera :)

Thanks for the tips. I JUST bought a new digitial camera in anticipation of this cruise - and it appears that even I would have to work at screwing these pictures up!
