Default Honeymoon Spot??

We are getting married in Cabo but planning to honeymoon in Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa. Any thoughts on which town is better or hotel suggestions?

Thanks!
Melissa

We stayed at La Casa Que Canta for the first leg of our honeymoon in November. FABULOUS. I highly recommend.

We went to Ixtapa one day. I don't recommend it. Stick to Zihuatanejo. You'll be much happier.

If LCQC is too pricey, look at Villa del Sol or, maybe Brisas Del Mar. Avoid other hotels.

Practically speaking - we are adventure travelers and had grand plans to go on safari. All of our friends said don't do it because all we were going to want to do was veg after the wedding. They were right. We sat by our private plunge pool, read, and ate. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. After 5 days, I was ready for a bit more action and we headed over to the Riviera Maya and explored caves and pyramids. It was perfect. We stayed at Hacienda Tomezon and Hacienda San Jose (awesome!). It was a perfect honeymoon.

Thanks Natasha! Those places sounds perfect! Good to know about Ixtapa--having not been there before we have no idea what to expect. Zihuatanejo sounds much more like what we are looking for. We've done quite a bit of traveling in the Riviera Maya area and are exciting to try out a new part of Mexico!

Zihuatanejo is my favorite city in Mexico!!! If you go there for your honeymoon you will enjoy it...it's basically a quiet city with small bars and great restaurants. La Ropa beach is beautiful and relaxing. My FI and I have been there twice and just love it, we've made many friends in that city and plan on going back next year! PM me if you want some more recomendations or info, I would love to help

If you like a quiet and small hotel, you will love where I stayed: Tentaciones Hotel and Lounge Pool in Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa, Mexico

I stayed at the room next to the pool, wow! you will love it!

Its a new hotel.
