Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo Travel Guide
Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and seeThe twin resorts of Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo are located on the Pacific Coast of Mexico 144 miles northwest of Acapulco along the coast known as La Costa Grande.
Ixtapa is a government-planned resort of high-rise hotels, designer shops, gourmet restaurants, golf courses, and popular nightclubs. Planned at the same time as Cancun, it never has reached the same popularity.
Zihuatanejo is a thriving community that has grown from a fishing village. It is composed of a natural bay surrounded by several beaches. Zihuatanejo has a more authentic Mexican flavor and a large selection of inexpensive restaurants.
The two towns, just four miles apart, make the perfect combination for enjoying the best of both worlds while on vacation.
Lodging Options:
Capella Ixtapa: Experience the beauty of Mexico at Capella Ixtapa, a luxury resort perched inside a rock cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. This Ixtapa Zihuatanejo hotel features luxurious suites, private pools, a spa, restaurants, tequila bar, and more. See more at www.capellaixtapa.com
