Mazatlán Travel Forum

Hi, my name is Dana and I'm hoping that someone can help me. Last month (Oct. '08) my boyfriend and I visited Mazatlan briefly when our ship docked in port. We went to the Golden Zone and visited a nice jewelry store, which I believe was called Azteca. It stood out because it had a very interesting, ornate-looking storefront. Inside, I tried on some beautiful tanzanite rings, but didn't buy one. Since that time, my boyfriend and I have talked about getting engaged, and I can't find any tanzanite rings on the internet that are as beautiful as the ones I saw in that store. I've tried finding the store on the internet, but to no avail. Is anyone familiar with this jewelry/art store? If so, could you please email me the website or phone number? Many thanks! Dana

Is the outside ornate like a mayan temple? If it is then it is called the Maya and not Azteca, I will try to get a phone number for them as a family member worked there once.

I will be back in touch.

Hi Mazgal,
Yes, the outside DID look like a Mayan temple! I'll bet that's the place! That's funny that you know someone who worked there - what a small world! Thank you so much for your help,a nd have a happy Thanksgiving! Dana ;)

Hi Dana,
I don't know if you've gotten an answer yet, but I just returned from a Mexican cruise and I visited the same store. Here is the address & phone number:

Maya
Ave Rodolfo Loaiza 411, Mazatlán
69-167-220

Sorry Dana,

I am waiting for my nephew to come back from Monterrey for the Holidays which should be anytime now, the number the nice lady gave you from the store is missing numbers the area code here is 669 and so I will get the numbers for you ASAP. One thing my nephew told me by phone the other day was that the company that owns Maya and Milano has gone into bankrupcy as alot of people have lately so you might get pretty good deals on jewelry if you bargain with them.

Be in touch as soon as I can.

Finally have the number, you call exactly like this from the US 011-52-669-913-3556, ask for Jose Luis and tell him his compadre asked you to contact him.
If this does not get you thru to them for some reason let me know,
