Quaintly tucked away on the Pacific Ocean, a charming town lies just north of Manzanillo and just south of Puerto Vallarta. This small town is called Barra de Navidad. It is quickly becoming a much talked about vacation destination. Located on a bay, Barra de Navidad is 25 minutes from the international airport in Manzanillo, making for easy access. With its other coastal neighbors being Costa Careyes, Manzanillo, and the internationally acclaimed Puerto Vallarta, Barra de Navidad is destined for greatness. With all the creature comforts of home, but a healthy heap of Mexican culture and feel, you will fall in love with the town. The sandy beach is only a few kilometers long, but there is a lagoon formed by one of the mountain arms. This makes a great place for sailing, and is great for bathing, as the waters are calm; protected by the ocean’s wind and crashing waves. Those that do want a little more action are most welcomed in the warm Pacific waters.
Barra de Navidad houses Mexico’s #1 rated resort, the “Grand Bay Hotel” and grand it is. It features a 27 hole golf course, and its own marina. Barra de Navidad is used mostly by Mexicans from Guadalajara during the high season, but Americans and Canadians alike enjoy the wonderful charm and allure of the town, as well! Everything moves a little slower and a little calmer here in Barra de Navidad. If you are seeking a relaxing vacation where you can soak up the sun, have fabulous food, and be able to relax your cares away, come on down. We welcome you with open arms!
