The Legendary Ixtapa Beachfront
More thoughtfully developed, first rate and tastefully contained, Ixtapa is a welcome relief from your average coastal resort town. Ixtapa is a stretch of hotels along the beach, a marina, and a stunning meeting of land and sea. 10 minutes away, there's a full service, charming Mexican town and the airport just a little further.
The Park Royal Ixtapa is at the very center, with 281 luxury guest rooms, three fantastic restaurants and four onsite cocktail bars and lounges. It's on the beach and with a quiet lane of specialty shops and an enormous crafts market just out back.
The premier All-Inclusive, the Park Royal Ixtapa welcomes guests from all over North America and every other corner of the world.
Why Park Royal Ixtapa?
An Ixtapa Holiday always means fun, sun and sea.
Ixtapa's nine romantic and intriguing bays each offer something different and an ocean dotted with dozens of rocky islands just off the coast adds up to some of the most dramatic sunset territory anywhere on the Pacific.
Just 25 minutes from the Zihuatanejo airport, and located right on the Palmar Bay, the Park Royal is Ixtapa's most comprehensive, detail oriented and meticulously cared for hotel.
• 300 meters of prime white sand beach
• Umbrellas, palapas, lounge chairs, towels & more
• Three gourmet restaurants & four lounges
• All day poolside snacks
• Massive main hotel swimming pool
• Kids' Club, ages 5-12, all day, everyday
• Luxury padded hotel mattresses
• Free non-motorized sports
A Park Royal Holiday is always loaded with fun, and All-Inclusive means you get everything in one place. Ixtapa is one of the leading vacation destinations on Mexico's Pacific Coast, and the Park Royal puts you right at the center.
The Pacific Coast that Just Keeps Happening.
Within easy walking distance of Ixtapa's hotel district are two championship golf courses, tennis, horseback riding, and miles and miles of beach.
Right on the hotel grounds, you've got water aerobics in a magnificently over-sized swimming pool, cooking classes, Spanish classes, beach & pool volleyball, diving, sailing, snorkeling, para-sailing and a whole list of entertainment & activities for adults & kids. These can include bike tours, yoga and snorkel lessons (in the pool), trips to pet the dolphins just up the beach, and sand castle contests!
To take all of this in you might need the massage service, but we've got you covered there, too.

Eating Out in Ixtapa
While Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo boasts a complete first-class tourist infrastructure with all the finest in international cuisine, there are plenty of surprises and rewards for those with a taste for the local.
Local dishes are heavy on sea food that ranges from the simple and tasty to the sublime and out of this world. Broiled fish fillets alongside varieties stuffed local catches and endless shrimp. There are fried fish tacos and octopus with garlic. Only the daring go in for the iguana soup, but the state of Guerrero is also famous throughout Mexico for Pozole, a corn and cabbage stew, served with pork or chicken, in as many varieties as there are little shops selling it.
Shopping in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo
Amber Jewelry
Amber in Mexico comes from the south-western state of Chiapas where a variety of tones and colors provide unique stones for all kinds of settings and creations. Timeless Mexican styles often include an insect or two, and smaller pieces will be set in stunning Taxco silver. Prices may be slightly better in Zihuatanejo than along the beach but in either case prices will be negotiable.
Pottery & Ceramics
Visitors are always impressed by the vibrant colors, unique designs and affordable prices of the local pottery. Painted plates, vases and decorative items of every style and character can be had, but you will want to be able to pack them carefully. Don't forget, most street prices are negotiable especially when you're purchasing multiple items.
Decorative Masks
Decorative masks of an astonishing variety and quality are available for rock bottom prices, especially in downtown Zihuatanejo. Figures from the Spanish conquest and all kinds of religious tales can include animals, supernatural figures and a cast of characters even more mysterious. Masks are available made from carved and painted wood, leather, papier-mâché, clay, cloth, cardboard, wire mesh and gourds.
Silver Jewelry
A long tradition of silver work and jewelry making puts Ixtapa in an excellent position to benefit from stunning workmanship and terrific prices. Shops in the center of Zihuatanejo, street vendors and even wandering salesman on the beach offer a nearly endless variety and some very high quality pieces. Check for the ".925" stamped on the back of anything your considering purchasing.
Wooden Crafts & Sculptures
Inland from the Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo area some of the liveliest craft and traditional arts are produced in terrific abundance and of incredible quality. The best part may be some of the incredibly affordable prices. Carved hard woods and soft woods are painted in a wide range of colors or simply finished in a light varnish.
