How to get to Casa Caprice?

Taxis are available at the airport which will take you directly to Troncones (they will know the way). They are cheaper if you walk out of the airport and catch one at one of the restaurants or stores off airport property. One way from the airport is about $50, a little less expensive from Troncones to the airport last time we checked. You can also rent a car, with rates ranging from $50-$100+ a day. You may be able to negotiate a better rate. Most major car rental agencies are available.

Rental Cars: Rental cars are available at the airport (word is to avoid Hertz), we recommend you book ahead of time on the internet for better deals.

Driving: Follow the main road leaving the airport which eventually connects to Highway 200 and skirts Zihuatanejo, stay on the same road with the flow of traffic until you are leaving Zihuatanejo and driving up a big hill (4 lane divided highway), stay in the right lane going up the hill and take the only exit on the right at the top of the hill which says Lazaro Cardenas. Drive about 15 miles, staying to the right, you will bypass the towns (and speedbumps) of Pantla and Buenavista until you come to a stop sign and a sign saying Lazaro Cardenas pointing left, go left. The Troncones turnoff is just a few more miles up the road and on the left. From the highway turnoff Troncones is about 5 miles down to the beach on a paved road. When you get to the beach turn left onto the dirt road. Drive down to almost the end of the road and you will find us on the left hand side of the road. We are 3 houses down from the end.

Combi/Bus Combination: Walk out of the airport past the parking lot and wait in the shade across the street and off airport property and a combi bus (VW type passenger van) will eventually arrive, tell the driver you want to go to Troncones and he will drop you off close to a bus stop that has buses marked with the destination 'La Union' painted on the front window. Tell the driver you are going to Troncones and he will drop you off at the turnoff for Troncones (on the highway) walk across the street and wait in the shade for another combi van to take you to the 'T' in the road at the beach where it will turn Right and you must go Left. Walk Left down the dirt road about a mile and we are the third last house on the Left hand side.
