Grab a hillside villa above Banderas Bay, charter a panga to hidden coves, and toast the entire group at a Pacific sunset that never disappoints. It's known for malecon sunsets and banderas bay boat days. A house near the sand, long lazy days, and a couple of boat or beach-club splurges — lodging leads, everything else is easy.
