itinerary

Bedroom with a large white bedspread-covered bed, colorful tropical paintings of women above headboard, and personal items including a silver suitcase and clothes on the bed.

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.
View of ocean with small rocky islands framed by lush green plants and a bamboo roof overhead.

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.
View from the bow of a boat looking out over calm blue sea with small boats near green, forested hills under a clear sky.

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.
Outdoor restaurant terrace at sunset overlooking calm sea with sailboats and distant hills.

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.
People relaxing and socializing in a small outdoor pool surrounded by lush tropical plants.

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

Sunlit adobe-style building with wooden pergola and lush green tropical plants in front.

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.
