The Tides Zihuantanejo

More hotel deals are afloat in Mexico, post-Swine Flu hysteria. Both The Tides Riviera Maya and Tides Zihuatanejo are offering guests who purchase one room/villa or suite, a second night room free of charge all this Summer.

Rates at the Tides Riviera Maya begin at $585 for a luxury villa while superior rooms for The Tides Zihuatanejo begin at $450 this month and at $355 from June to September.

The offer is pretty binding though as you must pay in full at time of confirmation and it's completely non-refundable or changeable and cannot be combined with any offers at the hotels. ]]> juliana 2009-05-15T15:28:08-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/12/19/161526/56 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/tides_zihua.jpg" class="top"><p> <img align="right" src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3/hc_reader_deals.jpg" class="imgborder"><p><i>The Tides Zihuantanejo</i><p>We aren't the biggest fans of Mexico but if there were ever a time for us to <i>seriously</i> considering a trip south of the border it would be now.
