If you aren't yet familiar with Ixtapa, this is definitely a place you might want to research-especially if you are looking for a great vacation spot in Mexico.

Together with the close neighboring town of Zihuatanejo-both quiet and quaint beach towns in the Mexican state of Guerrero-Ixtapa can make for a great escape for those who prefer to avoid the more crowded tourist destinations.

The town has come a long way from its origins as a coconut plantation. Today, Ixtapa puts a big focus on welcoming visitors who want to come explore the beautiful utopia, and immerse themselves in its upscale tropical paradise ambiance. This is a place you definitely want to consider if you love sun, sand, gorgeous locales and luxury surroundings.

Make your reservations at Sunscape Dorado Pacifico Ixtapa now, and explore this terrific gem hidden along the shores of Mexico!

Whether you are looking for an adventure vacation or a more low-key escape from your stressful daily routine, Ixtapa can be the perfect solution. That makes it the ideal all-purpose vacation spot that can appeal to just about everyone.

For those looking for a way to enjoy the great outdoors and get an adrenaline rush, there are plenty of high-energy, active things to do here. Snorkeling and scuba diving are popular among visitors, as you will have a rare opportunity to enjoy sparkling blue tropical waters and get an up-close look at some exotic ocean life. Or take part in some of the many outdoor activities, such as water sports and beach volleyball. You can even explore the natural local terrain via an ATV tour. The eco tours organized by local groups are also a great way to see the wonders of Mother Nature on foot or by bicycle.
