Private Yacht Charter

Cruise the Ixtapa shoreline on a private yacht. Drop anchor in Zihuatanejo to swim in the bay, listen to music with the sun on your skin, sip drinks, and let the day unfold at the ocean's pace.

Daily Private Chef

Fresh, coastal Mexican cuisine prepared just for you each day. Every meal served in the comfort of your villa, where the flavors of the region come alive and the only thing you need to do is savor each bite.

Effortless Beach Access

A private gondola carries you from your villa down to the sand in minutes. The ocean is always just moments away, waiting for morning walks or sunset swims.

Tasting Menu at a
Michelin Restaurant

An evening at one of the region's most acclaimed restaurants, where coastal Mexican cuisine becomes art. A meal you'll remember, in a setting that feels both elevated and intimate.

Swimming Pools

Two pools designed for different moods. One for languid afternoons in the sun, the other for quiet evening swims under the stars.

itinerary

Day 1 / Arrival

Arrive at the villa, settle into your ocean-view suite, and ease into the rhythm of Ixtapa. Meet your new friends as a slow welcome dinner awaits, shared stories beginning as the sun sets over the Pacific.

Day 2 / Villa Day

A day to exhale. Lounge by the pool with your new friends, explore the property, let the warmth sink into your skin. Meals are prepared for you, conversations flow easily. There's nowhere you need to be.

Day 3 / Yacht Day

Set sail along the coastline together. Drop anchor to swim in open water, music playing, drinks in hand, laughter carrying across the waves. The day unfolds at the ocean's pace, and by sunset, strangers feel like old friends.

Day 4 / Beach Day + Michelin Dinner

Morning at the beach, toes in the sand, afternoon at your leisure. As evening falls, you're taken together to one of the region's most celebrated restaurants for a meal you'll remember long after you've left. A dinner where conversation deepens and time disappears.

Day 5 / Pool Day

Your last full day. Swim, read a book by the pool or at the beach, savor long conversations over meals with the friends you've made. Soak in every moment, every laugh, every view before the world calls you back.

voyage stories

The villa felt like a boutique resort, the chef’s meals were incredible, and the itinerary had the perfect flow. Ixtapa is such an underrated destination. The yacht charter to Zihua was unreal. I’m already planning to come back.

destination

A coastal Mexican hideaway of color, flavor, and ocean horizons. While often compared to Cabo, Zihuatanejo offers a quieter, more tranquil atmosphere and has long been a favorite escape for those in the know.Set along a protected bay framed by mountains, Zihuatanejo blends small-town warmth with understated luxury. Days unfold slowly here: morning swims in calm water, fresh seafood lunches in the sand, and golden evenings watching the bay come alive with lanterns.

Since the 1970s, its beachfront villas have drawn a discreet crowd seeking sun, stillness, and privacy along this unspoiled coast including artists, designers, and Hollywood icons like Elizabeth Taylor, Andy Warhol, and Betsey Johnson. Today, Zihuatanejo remains one of Mexico’s rare destinations where you can still find unhurried charm, authentic hospitality, and a coastline that feels both cinematic and untouched.

Jessica

Chicago is home, where I work as a sales coach and actor, but the world is my greatest teacher. I have a strong passion for travel especially solo journeys. Time spent exploring Italy, Spain, France, Mexico, and Costa Rica has broadened my perspective and deepened my ability to connect with people across cultures. Travel continues to inspire my curiosity, independence, and creative spirit.
