    Camino Real Zaashila Huatulco

    March 31, 2019 in Mexico ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    Camino real Zaashila Huatulco- on Bahia Tangolunda, Rincon Sabroso Beach, built in 1993, by a renown Mexican architect Javier Sordo Madaleno,. Beautiful, rounded, Moorish white buildings, most less than 3 stories high nestled in to the side of the hill. The swimming pool shape was amazing. The lower level suites had their own square, blue tiled pools right off of their decks. I loved all the blue tiles. This was the view from our room. We were on the third floor. All rooms face the ocean. There were only 2 buildings open as demand didn't warrant opening up another building up and behind.

    Huatulco was a purpose built area, like Cancun on the Caribbean this one was on the Pacific. The small fishing villages were cleared out in the 1980's. 9 bays, isolated and quiet. It is suppose to be an environmentally conscious international destination, but growth was slower than expected. There was an earthquake in sept 2017. The town La Crucecita was built to house the workers from the resorts.

    In colonial times Huatulco was a refuge for Pirates.
