First Post

Hello from the “Bright Side”. I have started this web log to keep in contact with our friends and guests on a more continuous and personal level. Sometimes there are so many things happening around here that I feel like I should put a new section on the web site, but then again, really, most events are transitory and perfectly suited to this medium. We also have long periods where absolutely nothing happens, so who knows how this is going to work out!

I am open to questions and topic suggestions so go a head and write, evaandjim@aol.com or comment. I don’t keep up with the Zihuatanejo message boards by Rob Whitehead at http://www.zihuatanejo.net/ or Joe Lagaduchi’s site at http://www.zihuatanejo-ixtapa.com/ they are both good places to find information on the area; I have put the links permanently in the links section at the right. I will post other good links for Mexico accordingly. However, my intention is to focus more on the home front or at least the beach in front of Eden.


Another inspiration for starting this blog now is that we are making a major addition to the hotel. We are currently in the throws of constructing 4 new suites. Here is a photo of how they look today. The speed at which they are going up is incredible! The started working on the 5th of May


As you see the suites will be situated on the south side of the courtyard. They will officially finish the square to make it more typical Hacienda style. We are adding some cool features to the suites, including central air-conditioning and (hopefully) internet hookup. We went to Patzcuaro a couple of weeks ago and bought a fountain for one of the patios that I think will be especially nice.


Karina and Gustavo Jasso are our contractor & Architect team. They are great, and have made some very nice renderings for us. Which you see here. The drawing includes some things which will not be included in this summer’s construction as well. The dome topped spa and the two rooms on the end of the main part of the hotel. Got to have something to look forward to!




Well i could go on and on, but the most important thing at this moment is to get this posted so that I can start working on the next one!
