Playa Buenavista is a secluded beach known for its natural beauty. It is located just a few kilometers from Ixtapa, making it a convenient getaway for those seeking a less touristy destination. The beach is characterized by its privacy, as it is primarily a space for private homes rather than a hotel zone.
The beach's natural characteristics are one of its main attractions. It is home to turtles that lay their eggs on the sand, adding to the unspoiled charm of the area. However, the beach is also known for its fragile waters, which can have strong waves on sunny days.
Despite its beauty, Playa Buenavista faces challenges with waste management. The sea often washes up plastics, bottles, and other kinds of waste onto the beach. As such, visitors are urged to be mindful of their impact on the environment and help preserve this paradise.
While the beach does not offer a wide range of amenities due to its secluded nature, it provides a peaceful environment for activities such as quiet walks and runs. Visitors are encouraged to return and continue enjoying the tranquility and beauty of Playa Buenavista.
Visitor reviews highlight the beach's secluded, natural beauty and its non-touristy, unspoiled environment as the most appreciated features. Many visitors also enjoy the privacy it offers due to its location in a private homes area, not a hotel zone. However, there are concerns about the increasing amount of garbage, particularly plastics and bottles, that the sea washes up on the beach.
Travelers often stay in Ixtapa, which is just a short drive from Playa Buenavista, to enjoy both the bustling resort atmosphere and the tranquil beach. Although Playa Buenavista is primarily surrounded by private homes, the proximity to Ixtapa offers numerous accommodation options for visitors.
