Huatulco o Tangolunda, Playa el Arrocito & Crucecita
Huatulco is the haute all-inclusive clubs.
Arrocito is the bluff above Huatulco.
Crucieta is the town where all of the mexican employees work that power the all-inclusive clubs. We stayed in Arrocito at the Hotel Villas Coral. This hotel was prime before the onset of the all inclusive club. We were the only people staying at this place, ok - maybe there was one or two other guest, but we never saw them. We had the pool, the ocean view and the restaurant/snack bar to ourselves.
We went to Crucieta for dinner and snacks and found the Onix. Brand new haute restaurant overlooking the zocalo. The owner chatted with us for a bit and told us that they had owned the eatery downstairs for 18 years and wanted to try something a bit more upscale. It was great. We had a great bottella de vino blanco and wonderful pasta.

when we were looking for a place with a la piscina - they advertised it as la alberca? porque?

i think alberca kind of means small lake or pond. but is sometimes used as pool. it could be a regional thing. i'm learning that the espanol is more varied than i thought. i'm used to the california version.
