The eight interconnected pools here offer a nook for everyones enjoyment. The great slide for the kids, the waterfall, the prompt service to your deck chair, the convenience of the restaurants if you need a few minutes out of the sun for a quick bite...it's all here.
What I wish I
could change:
Manzanillo is a great out of the way beach destination so direct flights are few but this great getaway spot is worth the trip.
Why YOU should
go:
Great beach, great fishing, great golfing....Manzanillo offers something for everyone.
