Classic
Mexico: Romance in Puerto Vallarta and Acapulco by Paris Permenter
& John Bigley Wedding guest Brooke Shields called it the most
romantic place on earth to begin a life together. It was no blue lagoon
that prompted the star to make this claim, but instead a small Mexican
beach property called Hotelito Desconocido or the "Little Unknown
Hotel." One of 20 guests for the November 1999 wedding of actress
Lisanne Falk and video game producer Mark Morris, the film star was
enchanted with the pristine setting of the ecotourism resort located
sixty miles south of Puerto Vallarta.
Acapulco
as you like it by Paris Permenter & John Bigley "Hey,
isn't that Sylvester Stallone?" Just a few feet across the packed
dance floor, a muscular, dark man in a white suit has commanded the
attention of several well-coifed women. Hmm...same build. Same hair.
And, as we saw the moment he turned, a different face. Oh, well...
Celebrity sightings --or near misses, in this case -- are no surprise
in Acapulco, a classic resort city that's glitzy, glamorous and Hollywood
with an olé spirit.
Villa
Vera Hotel Spa and Raquet Club, Acapulco, Mexico by Paris Permenter
& John Bigley Acapulco. The name is almost synonymous with the
stars of Hollywood's heydays. Acapulco may have changed since its
days as an exclusive Hollywood getaway, but at Villa Vera Hotel Spa
and Racquet Club, the legend lives on. This hillside retreat has regained
its glamour status following a renovation of its 69 unique accommodations.

Puerto
Vallarta: Following in the Romantic Footsteps of Taylor and Burton
By Paris Permenter & John Bigley Just the names Elizabeth Taylor
and Richard Burton spell romance. Although the couple traveled the
world, perhaps no other destination is as closely associated with
these lovers as the location where their romance first blossomed:
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

Manzanillo
Manzanillo Honeymoon Planner Looking for something
a little different in Mexico? The West Coast resort city of Manzanillo
just might be the place. From luxurious hideaways to bustling all-inclusives,
from sports and spas to colonial cities and volcanoes, you'll find
a little of everything in this region. Check out our new Manzanillo
mini-site for resorts, marriage regulations, & more!
Las Hadas,
An Arabian Nights Dream by Eleanor S. Morris Here's a fairy-tale
world right out of the Arabian Nights: gleaming white Arabian tents
and arches, curved domes and winding pathways, sumptuous suites and
balconies, wonderful food and gracious service.
Manzanillo,
Far Away on a Beautiful Bay by Eleanor S. Morris Looking for a
romantic spot far from the tourist crowd? Manzanillo, unlike the frenetic
resorts north and south, is not the place for a non-stop party. Manzanillo
moves at a much more relaxed pace; its small pueblos have a charming
small-town atmosphere true to the vibrant flavors of Old Mexico.
Mazatlan
Mazatlan:
Pearl of the Pacific by Eleanor S. Morris Long walks on the beach,
captivating sunsets, the splendors of Mazatlan, are all yours to share
with someone special. Mazatlan, "Land of the Deer" in the
Nahuatl language, has a romantic history.
Cabo San Lucas
Honeymooning
at Cabo San Lucas's Original Beachfront Resort by Eleanor S. Morris
Start your new life together with romance, adventure, tropical gardens,
whites and beaches--and exciting nights on the town closeby. And at
a close-to-home but exotic destination! Where but at Cabo San Lucas
at Land's End of Baja California?
Los Cabos
Baja Desert
Dream by Victoria Brooks Los Cabos, at the tip of the Baja Peninsula
-- a place of golden deserts, verdant jade mountains and sapphire
seas. A hot place of glittering resorts; condos and time shares; world-class
golf; kayaking and ATV riding. A still wild place where one can live
the life of a sportsman; rock till you drop; study the sea; drink
mezcal until you get to the worm; or dream you are Mayan royalty...
Los
Cabos for Lovers by Eleanor S. Morris There's a romantic place
on the very tip of Baja California, the south end of the California
Peninsula, called Land's End. It's marked by El Arco, the Arch, a
rugged rocky point around which swirl the waters of the Sea of Cortes
as they merge with the mighty Pacific, and it's a favorite place for
romance.
Ixtapa and Zihuatenejo
Las
Brisas, Ixtapa, for Two Lifestyles in One by Eleanor S. Morris
Stay in the luxurious resort of Las Brisas and enjoy the luxury of
two towns in one. The resort in Ixtapa, a town invented and planned
exclusively as a vacation resort, offers conditions ideal for swimming
and water sports. The fishing village of Zihuatenejo, only three miles
to the southeast, has managed to retain its charm.
Ensenada
Ensenada:
More than a Border City by Paris Permenter & John Bigley The
verdant hills which fringe the city of Ensenada are what first attracts
the eye of many visitors. Whether they arrive by plane, cruise ship,
bus, or car, they can't miss the hills which hint at the fertile countryside
surrounding this busy town.
