Health authorities report there are currently 28 active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo. No information on whether any local infections are attributed to the omicron variant. Still no word on the next round of vaccinations.

While there certainly are crowds of people roaming the streets and beaches, most are day-tripper tourists from buses, and the ones who check in to hotels tend to sleep over 5 people to a room. In Ixtapa, the All-Included tourists barely patronize the shops and restaurants in the shopping centers. Too many "turistas BBB". We're still lacking sufficient visitors with the purchasing power Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa needs to sustain the community. But it's still good to see all the people enjoying our picture postcard perfect weather and beautiful beaches.

I'm not seeing many price increases in local lodgings from previous years, a few very minimal increases. Now's a good time to make reservations for after the holiday crowds.
