Ixtapa Vacation Rentals

Wonderful weather year-round and miles of gorgeous beaches are just part of why Ixtapa is the star of the Mexican Riviera. In just 40 years, this Pacific coast resort has gone from being a coconut grove to a playland for celebrities and families alike. Activities near, on or under the water are great ways to spend a day in the warm sunshine. Vacation condo and villa rentals with breathtakingly beautiful bay and ocean views come with many amenities and are reasonably priced.

For the best time in Ixtapa, a visitor must get wet. Some of the most popular water activities include swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, parasailing and windsurfing. Since the surf is especially calm at Playa Linda and Playa Quieta, those beaches are most favorable for families and anyone who is not a strong swimmer. One water adventure that is sure to please kids of all ages is a visit to Delfiniti, where swimming with the dolphins is a lot of fun.

Horseback riding, deep sea diving and fishing are other interesting ways to spend a day in Ixtapa. Golfers will enjoy playing a round at Campo de Golf Ixtapa, a Robert Trent Jones course, or Marina Ixtapa Golf Club, designed by Robert von Hagge and ranked as one of Mexico’s best by Golf Digest. After a day at the beach or on the fairways, dinner at one of Ixtapa’s fine eateries can provide an epicurean delight and magnificent sunset view.

For its overall beauty and friendly atmosphere, a vacation rental in Ixtapa would be a terrific holiday haven.
