El Careyes Beach Resort: Chic Mediterranean style lodgings and impeccably manicured gardens of lush flowers and native cactus form the background of this magical oasis in Jalisco, just a gorgeous hour and a half north of Manzanillo. From the moment you enter the property gates youll be surprised and delighted by its beauty and privacy. Check into one of the romantic suites or small houses called casitas over-looking the resorts turquoise pool, then take in the unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean from your plunge pool or lanai. Grab your swim suit and stroll the short path to the private lagoon where youll find the water pristine and teaming with marine life or take the path in the opposite direction to the on-site restaurant La Lantana, and enjoy tropical drinks, delicious, regional and international fare, and stunning views of the sun sparkling on the water.
The resort offers a myriad of activities from kayaking to polo for the days that youre feeling adventurous, and an array of indulgences from en-suite massages to full spa services for the days when you feel like leaving the world behind.El Careyes is named for carey (kah-rey) the hawksbill sea turtles that used to come and lay their eggs on the little beach of Careyitos in front of the resort. To protect the turtles, their hatching grounds have been moved to a near-by guarded beach where environmentally conscious visitors can catch a glimpse of them in their natural habitat.
Hotelito: Turn off your cell phone, leave your lap-top behind, and get ready to say goodbye to unwanted distractions at this eco-luxury slice of heaven. Hotelito, designed by Italian fashion designer, Marcello Murzilli, was built with romance in mind and a true love for the environment at heart. The resort features 24 palafitos, lodging built on stilts over a crystal clear lagoon at the edge of the Pacific Ocean. Pampered guests need only hoist their rooms red flag to summon service or jump into their row boat and go ashore for delicious organic fare grown right on-site. Some couples fall immediately in love with the lack of TVs and electricity, others simply need to stroll 
through the torch-lit resort at night under the cover of billions of stars to become forever enamored with this escape. Pack your bathing suit, your favorite book, your book light, and your best binoculars to view the abundant marine life and exotic birds that call this place their home.
