Dear Dave,
My colleague, Wendy Frost, just returned from taking 20
great travel agents from western Canada to the Krystal
Ixtapa and to get familiar with a beautiful destination -
Ixtapa and Zihuatenejo.
The Ixtapa area runs along 26 kms of hilly tropical
coastline with dozens of sandy beaches and scalloped
coves. The average temperature is 78.8 degrees and the
sun shines approximately 340 days a year!
The 3 primary goals of this and all of our FAMs are to
have our agents:
1. Get to know the host properties,
2. Get to know the destination and,
3. Get to enjoy the service of our tour operator partner,
WestJet
All aspects of our FAM are geared to one of these 3 goals.
In addition, we always do single-room occupancy on our
FAMs. You can see plans for upcoming FAMs
HERE.

KRYSTAL IXTAPA - The Krystal Ixtapa is
located on one of the best beaches in Ixtapa's hotel
district.
IXTAPA - Once a coconut plantation, Ixtapa
boasts the high-rise hotels, all-inclusive resorts,
air-conditioned restaurants and upscale shopping you
associate with Mexican beach resorts and luxury travel.
|
KRYSTAL IXTAPA 
The property features a great combination of modern
architecture, hotel accommodations, cuisine, and
Ixtapa's most spectacular swimming pool with its own
waterfall and water-slide!
All of the agents were ready for a brief meeting and
then site inspection on property. Agents were able to
see Standard (floors 2-4), Deluxe (floors 5-8) and
Superior rooms (floors 9-11).
Of course the agents were able to spend some free time
on property to enjoy the pools and great beach.
Thanks to all of these fine agents for their support!

The team enjoyed their farewell dinner at Bogart's,
Krystal's amazing signature restaurant.
|
The resort offers 3 restaurants and one a la carte which
is the famous Bogart's Restaurant. Recently, the hotel
underwent major renovations, which included rooms, lobby
and restaurants.
You can find more details of our recent renovations
HERE.

The destination tag line is ONE TRIP, TWO
PARADISES. Of
course the first part of your job as an agent is selling
the destination. It was great for the agents to enjoy and
explore both paradises with a number of excursions.
|
|
|
A catamaran trip was a great way to start exploring
Ixtapa. |
With the help of OTI (WestJet's
ground tour operator), the agents enjoyed a city tour of
Zihuatanejo, only 20 minutes from Ixtapa. Along with
that was a cooking demonstration/class. Zihuatanejo is
a beautiful, traditional fishing village, which I hope
all Ixtapa guests take time to explore. The local
farming population relies on agricultural crops
including coconuts, mangos, cotton and corn.
