Many Europeans and British overlook the west coast of Mexico. Manzanillo is on the same latitude as Hawaii and the Pacific is very blue and inviting. Over the years, we've stayed at several places in or near Manzanillo... here's one of our favorites: http://www.tomzap.com/VLA.html

It has been about two years since we were ther...

Agreed, Clanad. But the trouble for us Brits is that no charter flights go to the West Coast - have to change in Mexico City, Miami or LA.
Suggest you look down the coast from Cancun (where you can easily fly to). Plenty of good resorts down there. Just avoid Cancum - rather full of 18 yr old Americans experiencing alcohol for the first time.

I went here a few years back:

And thoroughly enjoyed it. It has it's own private beach (man made). The Spa Palace resorts are a chain and guests were able to get coaches to the other ones in Mexico. It depends what you want from your holiday though. :)

Thanks guys.. i have had a a look and to be honest its just not appealing to me. it seems a lot more built up than i thought.

Looking now at Jamaica.. Mr Poison v. pleased about that.

Riu Cancun, or Riu Caribe, the cancun is nearer the centre of cancun though like the clubs, and they are both amazing.
