From the name right down to the cuisine, everything about La Casa Que Canta was absolutely exquisite. When we started planning our honeymoon we didn't really know where we wanted to go; all I knew was that I wanted a quiet, relaxing retreat and I wanted to feel pristine ivory sand between my toes and feel the cool ocean breeze everyday. Located in beautiful Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa, Mexico, La Casa Que Canta was exactly what we were looking for- peaceful and romantic. What's more is that it's an architectural marvel! It was like nothing we'd ever seen before. Ingeniously sculpted on a promontory with an extraordinary tiered architecture, La Casa Que Canta was even more breathtaking person.
We knew the moment we walked into the lobby that we'd picked the right resort for our honeymoon. The gracious staff welcomed us with open arms and really worked to make sure that our stay was perfect. The staff was so attentive and their service was unparalleled to any other resort we've stayed at. They showed us to our room, the junior Senorita Sonrisa suite in the private residence El Murmullo. Our view from the room was gorgeous. We watched the sun go down over the Zihuatanejo Bay everynight as we enjoyed a nice glass of champagne.
During the day we lounged by one of the plunge pools, took a walk along the bay and enjoyed yoga there at the resort but our favorite activity there was the cooking lessons with chef Antonio! We love Mexican food and discovering the secrets of Mexican cuisine from Chef Antonio was so much fun! We've already tried some of his tips at home.
At night we dined at the resort's restaurant. They had a variety of traditional Mexican dishes for us to choose from and I'll admit that it took me a while to decide what delectable dish I wanted to satisfy my palette each and every time we ate there; we tried breakfast, lunch and dinner and all our meals were divine and mouthwatering. We especially loved the classic ceviche with perfectly crispy tortilla chips, their fish tacos and their margaritas of course!Our honeymoon at La Casa Que Canta really was the romantic retreat we were looking for. The service, the suite, the food, the amenities were all amazing and we're so glad we decided to go with La Casa Que Canta for our special vacation.
