We travelled to Ixtapa from Canada as a family of 5 (husband/wife and three adult children) and have been to the area multiple times over the past 10 years spent entirely at all-inclusive resorts. This was our first time renting a condo and after spending 10 days over Xmas/New Years, we are definitely sold on condo living in Ixtapa. The pictures provided are accurate, the condo is clean and spacious, has all the amenities and sleeps three adult couples quite comfortably. Not sure I would add a 4th adult couple but kids/teenagers for sure, as the condo does sleep 10 with bunks and pull outs. The owners are good at getting back to you if asked questions, and Axel (property rep) and Carmen (housekeeper) are awesome! We had one maintenance hiccup with the gas stove, but Axel was on it, and it was fixed the same day. The only other issue (if we can call it that) was we had planned to have the condo’s other staff member cook for us over the 10 days, but she was on holidays. Only advice would be to ensure this is lined up before you arrive, as it took some time to find a replacement cook who unfortunately was only available for the last half of our trip. Understandable given the holiday season. However, Rosa Elia was wonderful and prepared two meals for our family that were amazing! Having someone local to the area come in and provide a food and cultural experience to our family was incredible and would highly recommend! For those that have never travelled to Ixtapa, the beach is the best and the condo makes it even better being only 25 steps away. We did not use the pool, as we spent our time on the beach, but it was very busy and line-ups at the bar could be very long. We were grateful to just pop into the condo to top up our beverages! We would definitely consider returning! Thank you to Axel, Carmen, Rosa Elia and Lisa/Jeff for letting us stay in your little piece of paradise. We had a wonderful trip!
