A great meal doesn't have to cost a fortune. Many of the better restaurants are very reasonably priced. A few of the closer restaurants will deliver to the resort upon request for a fee. Pacific Vacation Resort recommends Bandidos, Coco Bahia Botanas & Tapas, El Mediteranneo, and Chuleto, all within walking distance from the resort. Ruben's Hamburgers, Beccofino, Bistro Soleiadio, are in Ixtapa, a ten-minute taxi ride.
The Artist Market in Zihuatanejo is where locals sell the beautiful hand-crafted platers that hang in Pacific Vacation kitchens. The market is a great place to pick up trinkets and souvenirs for a loved one who didn't make the trip with you. Silver jewelry is also a big seller in the markets. Many of the items that the "beach vendors" offer are found at lower prices in the market than on the beach. The Artist Market is a must-do for an afternoon in Zihuatanejo.
