La Madera and Principal at Sunset

Awesome picture Ward! One thing I found about Zihua is that they are very accomodating for photographers, especially in hotels, particularly for those that look business. Anything promoting Zihua and/or their business is good for them. I have never been refused access to take shots anywhere I Zihua and Ixtapa and have been all over the place. I'm polite and friendly and that's all it takes usually...

I agree with all of the above. Just awesome!

Instead of risking any misunderstanding with any hotel staff, don't be bashful about asking permission to photograph from their properties. This is Zihuatanejo. Not Miami Beach. No snobs here.
