Manzanillo Luxury Vacation Rentals

This new kitchen has everything needed for an enjoyable stay (but who wants to cook with all those great restaurants right outside the complex?)! Juicer, toaster, broiler oven and full china set in the storage cabinet under the stairway.

If this is your first trip to Mexico, here are a few helpful hints. Always call your credit card companies before you leave and tell them that you will be in Mexico. When you get here, you will want them to work ! Carefully inspect any cash that you will bring with you. The bills cannot be torn, overly worn or have ANY marks of any type on them. Plan to exchange your currency at a bank for Pesos. Almost all stores will accept Dollars, but none will calculate the value using the real exchange rate, but will use the quick rate of 10:1 for USD transactions. Depending upon the current exchange rate, you could pay a lot more for a product or service by paying in Dollars. Make sure that you keep your tourist visa in a safe place, you will have to relinquish it when you get your boarding pass for going home, there is a fine for losing it. You can feel very comfortable going anywhere in Colima State, crime is truly almost non-existent.
