Capella Ixtapa

Whether for a romantic escape or for a girls’ get-away, Capella Ixtapa is the perfect resort on the Mexican Riviera.  As you enter the resort through the dramatic gate, you instantly feel the intimacy of Capella.  With a private plunge pool and comfortable sofa on your lanai, there is no reason to leave your room.  Although if you do, you will be pleased with all that the resort has to offer.  After a leisurely breakfast overlooking the ocean, walk a few steps to the infinity pool to relax in the sun or in a cabana for the day.  Take time to get pampered in the spa.  

Head back to your room in the late afternoon for mini Coronas and chips with homemade guacamole and salsa which you can enjoy on the deck of your room, soaking up more sun and taking advantage of your plunge pool.  On the way to dinner, stop in the library for a brief history and a taste of a local tequila.  Dinner at Capella is also a unique experience.  Eat at the Seafood Market, located just above the beach, where you can pick out and enjoy the day’s local fresh catch.  Choose to venture to A Mares, Capella’s fine dining restaurant, where the cuisine parallels what you might see on Iron Chef – textures, flavors, colors, spices all appeal to your senses.  

For a perfect end to your day, lie on the lanai’s sofa and listen to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.  It’s the perfect quick get-away or week escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
