Location: Ixtapa, Guerrero, Mexican Riviera, Mexico (20 Min from Airport/Across Street from Marina Golf Course) View Map
Accommodations: Condominium, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)
The Monarca is a Five Star Condominium Complex located on Ixtapa (Palmar) Beach. Extremely large meandering pool set among mature palm trees and impeccably maintained tropical landscape.
Your choice to sunbathe on the beach or sit amongst the Palms (also on the beach) for some shade. Relax and enjoy the magnificent atmosphere as you lounge in your reserved beach chair and watch the dolphins play in the surf. Join us nightly as we watch the sun sink below the Horizon against a sky painted with pastels of pinks and blues, as we end another wonderful day in Paradise.
But wait, you have a grand evening ahead of you. You are within a five minute walk of downtown Ixtapa with a plethora of indigenous and ethnic restaurants to choose from each evening.
Don't forget to plan a short ten minute bus or cab ride to Zihuatanejo (the "grown up" little fishing village) with the central mercantile for shopping, and wonderful hillside restaurants with breathtaking views of the harbor.
Note: You can walk pretty much everywhere in Ixtapa day or night without fear. Of course no place is "sterile" of crime, but everyone feels very safe here in our town (locals and tourists alike).
I will be happy to provide you with answers to your questions regarding restaurants, activities, sports, etc. I have fairly extensive knowledge of the area, and can help to make your vacation one to remember fondly. Also, if this condo does not meet your needs, feel free to contact me as I have access to a wide variety of Condos and homes both on and off the beach in different price ranges starting at less than $100 per night.
