Ixtapa, and its neighbor Zihuatanejo, provide a delightful contrast, and two distinct examples of Mexico’s coastal towns. Ixtapa is a sleek beach resort with shopping centers. Zihuatanejo is more rustic and slow-paced and popular with tourist because of its village-like atmoshpere, cobblestone streets, and open-air restaurants. Both town are clean and well kept, not over-developed, and remain relatively uncrowded. The entire area offers more than a dozen beautiful beaches. And perhaps the greatest quality of the area, besides the abundance of sun, sand and sea, is the range of experiences possible- from elegant and sophisticated to traditional and rustic.

Nightlife is abundant and lively, and there is a large variety of restaurants. Beaches are long and the waves can be big enough for surfboarding and body surfing.
Once a tiny fishing village, Puerto Vallarta retains the timeless, laid back feelings of “Old Mexico”.
