Discover Your Dream Vacation Home

La Manzanilla is a charming fishing village nestled along Mexico’s Pacific coastline, located about an hour north of Manzanillo and three hours south of Puerto Vallarta. It sits in the scenic Costa Alegre region of Jalisco, which translates to the “Happy Coast.” Nearby communities include Cihuatlán, Melaque, Barra de Navidad, Boca de Iguanas, and El Tamarindo.

The village itself is compact, with a single main road that runs alongside the beach and curves around the edge of town, where you’ll find a few upscale homes overlooking the bay. Increasingly popular among travelers from Europe, Canada, and the U.S., La Manzanilla offers a relaxed pace of life amid breathtaking natural surroundings. The growing international community has given rise to a surprising range of amenities—including a New York-style art gallery, cultural center, language school, humane society, and a variety of restaurants serving everything from local Mexican dishes to American and Pan-Asian cuisine
