Things to Consider
Passport
Please double check your passport! Most countries require it be valid for at least six months beyond your planned date of departure.
Where We Are Located
The location is ideal. It’s a short walk to the center of Troncones. The beach road is being paved at The Villas so no more dust. The beach is great for swimming, surfing, fishing and simply sun bathing. Troncones is a small community at the end of a paved road 3 km off Highway 200.

Airports near the Villas
There are direct flights to Ixtapa/Zihuateneno airport from many major U.S. cities.
Transfers & Shuttles

Money
It is best to exchange U.S. currency into pesos, and best deals are through ATM machines. There are ATM machines at the airport, in Zihuatenejo and Ixtapa (your shuttle driver can stop there on the way to The Villas) but the ATM in Troncones is not reliably full at all times. Please remember to notify your bank and/or credit card companies that you will be traveling out of the country so you aren’t prevented from using your ATM cards.
You may also use U.S. dollars. Bring bills that are in good condition. Very helpful to have numerous $5s, $10s and $1s. Also good to have a few $20s. Cash is needed for tips related to the airport shuttle (driver and person who gets the shuttle for you when you first arrive). Cash needed for buying drinks at airport, souvenirs at beach, cafe on the last day. There are also awesome jewelry makers/sellers that come visit, so be prepared!
