Looking for your dream home? Vega, Bravo y Asociados offers fine local properties for sale, including at the exclusive Punta Garrobo development near Cerro del Vigía at La Ropa. Follow your dreams and buy a villa, home or a lot in one of Zihuatanejo's most exclusive residential areas.

What’s rude or condescending? Is development good or not? It’s hard to keep up.

You insincerely pretend to be looking for a black or white answer in a world full of color. But a simple answer is that NO, all developments are not good, especially when they damage the environment. Being a Malibu real estate agent, you should know quite well there are severe restrictions on growth and development there, so you can probably guess that our local restrictions are much more lax than where you work, leaving too much discretion to speculators, developers and individuals who couldn't care less about environmental concerns by locals. I consider you as one of the latter from comments you've made here previously.

it breaks my heart to keep seeing condos sprouting up on the hillsides overlooking Las Gatas and La Ropa, matando la gallina de los huevos de oro. Those wooded hillsides are part of our main attraction and our patrimony, they shouldn't be used as spoils for the pickings for people with money and influence.

Should we disregard the ad in the previous post about the realty company representing punta garrobo developments in said hills?

Your insincere concern is noted, Malibu real estate agent.

Maybe someday I will understand how some people believe it is perfectly fine to be rude and condescending to their hosts. If anyone has any insights, they would be very much appreciated. The image that keeps popping up in my mind is someone who comes into your open house and defecates on your living room floor.

¡Brrrr! Woke to some of that arctic air this Tuesday morning. Must've been at least 20°C, but it felt like 18°C! I almost thought I could see my breath. But the fresh hot locally grown coffee from Café Caracol warmed me up as much as the extremely bright sun in our crisp and clear blue sky.

The green is fading from our hillsides, a little more each day. They'll soon be barren and brown as our selva baja caducifolia goes into sort of a dry season hibernation until next May or June when the rainy season starts back up. Which is why it breaks my heart to keep seeing condos sprouting up on the hillsides overlooking Las Gatas and La Ropa, matando la gallina de los huevos de oro. Those wooded hillsides are part of our main attraction and our patrimony, they shouldn't be used as spoils for the pickings for people with money and influence. We've already lost most of the rest of our ecological zones thanks to unscrupulous politicians with a little help from well-meaning but misguided foreigners.

Poinsettias are for sale along with Christmas trees at Plaza Kioto. It's wayyy too early in the season for this nonsense, but there they are, nonetheless. I expect the municipal government will soon be putting up decorations along the waterfront and around the downtown area, too. [sarcasm]I can hardly wait to see them.[/sarcasm]

There's actually a slight chance of rain in the forecast for this coming Friday night. It'd be nice, but I'm not counting on it.

A 4.2 temblorcito was registered in the region during siesta time this afternoon. No damages to report.

Just a reminder that one of my favorite places to eat, Deborah's Restaurant on the boulevard in Ixtapa, is accepting reservations for her abundant and sumptuous Thanksgiving Dinner with all the fixings including her mouthwatering pumpkin pie for dessert, guaranteed to have you waddling away afterwards. There'll be two seatings: 5:30 and 7:30 P.M.

Las flores cuitlaxóchitl / nochebuena ya están en venta con árboles de Navidad en Plaza Kioto de Zihuatanejo. Personalmente, creo que es muy temprano para estar haciendo esto.
