Ixtapa Beaches
Plenty of Beach to go around...
The beach and shopping areas in Ixtapa are approximately 20 minutes walking distance from the house or a 3-minute drive. In Mexico all beaches are for Public use. You can enter the beach through any of the hotels (except the ones that say "todo incluido") meaning All Inclusive, (El Presidente and Club Med are all inclusive.) Many of the hotels have shaded areas to sit and enjoy the sun and ocean. You can use these areas provided you consume food and drinks.
