Short Stay

I was wondering if anyone would recommend a place to stay thats close to the beach and also Centro. I have been to Zihua/Ixtapa many time before, but not in the last 10 years. I want to take a short trip (maybe 4 or 5 days) to relax and visit an area I have always loved. Because this trip would be short, I would prefer a place that would allow me to walk to alot of the restaurants and beach. Thanks for any help
