Zihuatanejo Zihua - Quinta Camelinas
Posted: Tue September 9, 2003 02:20 PM UTC
I found a cute B&B in Zihautanejo; but it seems to be new. The owners want 50% of the fee sent via Western Union. How can I be sure they're legit? The name is Quinta Camelinas.

THX!

Sometimes cheaper is more expensive. This sounds a bit strange, so I don't know what to say. Looking on the internet their page is based on different locations with different phone numbers and email addresses, another suspicious fact. Their pages state the fact that they don't accept credit cards.

Be careful.

That's standard in Mexico-while many places in the rest of North America will accept Credit Cards the 17% tariff that merchants pay means accepting CC's for deposits is rarely done.

Zihua ia great place-not nearly as quiet and clean as it once was but still OK for all that.

If you don't go fishing at least one day you'll be missing the best of Zihua-trust me.

Try going through a travel agent or just show up with no resevrations and go from there. We are doing the travel agent thing.
