My wife and I have been going to this area for the last 9 years, we love it there so much we bought a pre-construction condo at the Sotavento. The best part of Zihau is the local people, so proud of their town and such hard workers. This is something that is missing from our broken society in BC. We hope that zihau stays like it is forever.

What a great video Island Hopper I really enjoyed it. My wife and I stayed in Zihuatanejo in the 90`s for two weeks. I see Zihuatanejo has come a long way from then. My favourite beach near Zihuatanejo is Playa Blanca which has a beautiful rock formation on the beach which I climbed to the top. I hope you will go to Playa Blanca and make another video there .

In future videos if you could explain some of the pricing for meals and other things a little bit more it would be great to get an understanding of how all these places compare for a travel budget or for wanting to move to one of these spots. Keep up the great work.

Nice video, but there are a few things to clarify: there is Zihuatanejo beach and the Marina, then Playa Madera where Irma hotel is located, then PLaya La Ropa, and finally Las Gatas (beautiful snorkeling beach). I also went last december, for 2 weeks, actually i go every Christmas and New years for the last 13 years. The most beautiful virgin beaches are Troncones and La Saladita, 20 min away. Also La Isla has amazing beaches. Unfortunatelly Ziha is too polluted and crowded. Also there are everyday free baby turtles releases during hollidays on every major beach at 6-6:30 pm. Lots of stuff you missed, also Ixtapa beach is one of Mexico´s finest beach.

I have been there and XTapa twice that meat market is ruff smelling. Know your butcher. Fresh fish daily in the am from the guys fishing at night. 100$ a person on a panga all day tuna durado and sailfish you can’t beat that. Tip the guides well for sure. Donate some of your meat and the guy who runs his lidless of pangas also owns a restaurant on the beach. He cooked up the fish enough to feed our 6 guests. Ultra nice people. Best tip/gift is cash and the just released costa Del Mar glasses from the US.

Lets put it like this. I would say its safe. If, you go from airport with licensed registered taxi, to your hotel, in the day time, walk around the main tourist areas. I would say you will feel safe. If you venture out into the hills or dark alleyways. Probably not safe. I have not heard of any violence really along the beach areas or tourist areas..

A little confused you are staying at hotel Irma ,then you say you woke up that morning and found out that the Hotel you are staying at is full.So that's why you are looking around for another place .If you are all ready staying at hotel Irma what does the Hotel have to do with it getting full if you are all ready there.That was a nice condo ,but i don't know about $310.000 USD for a 1 bedroom seems a little steep .But compared to US prices it's a steal.enjoyed the video thanks .
