Lot's of the people that I know that go there find hotels when they arrive.

Have a great time and take lot's of pic's & yes I am jealous as well.

We have booked a condo - a tiny little place with a beautiful pool just off of the beacjh abit. Should be nice and private and price was good too!
We will take a bunch of pics! Always come back with a camera full!

The jungle grows right down to the beach, and it is quite humid; Will take you a few days to get used to it. I only spent 8 hours there as it was one of the stops on our cruise 2 years ago. Small and friendly with a nice beach. As for Ixtapa, I know nothing about it as we didn't go into it.

OH!! Awesome Lance!! I will have to do some research ino that and make sure I check it out! Even bring the snorkel gear maybe! Really looking forward to the sun and humidity...therapeutic!

Never been but I've been to PV 3 times and Cancun once.

You'll enjoy yourself.

We have been to Mazatlan twice and loved the beach there so I assume this will be similar...
Thanks!
