 The most direct way to get to El Rancho Perla Negra is to fly into Manzanillo Playa de Oro International Airport (ZLO).
Rental cars: (Budget, Thrifty and Hertz...see link below) Car rentals are available at the airport, as are taxis (about $40.USD to the ranch).
Pick Up Service: With prior arrangements, we will be happy to pick you up at the airport (taxi rate) and deliver you to El Rancho Perla Negra.
Other Options: A less expensive option may be to fly to Puerto Vallarta Airport (PVR), taxi to the bus station, and enjoy a five-hour, first-class, scenic bus ride (onboard Spanish movies) down the coast to Manzanillo (approx. $20USD). When you get to the main bus terminal, either give us a call (332.0050) to pick you up, or get a taxi (c.$9USD, or $80 M.n.), and tell them you are going to El Rancho Perla Negra, near Campos.
NOTE: We suggest you stop en route at the Commercial Mexicana or the Soriana (visit the ATM for some pesos, buy some extras...beverages or snacks!) before continuing on to El Rancho. Expect to pay the taxi driver a little extra for his time while you shop.
DIRECTIONS: If you come via El Centro (Old Town Manzanillo), the Rancho is just past the entrance to Campos, on the right. Look for the large white Arch.
If you are coming off the autopista from the airport, take the Campos Exit just past the km. 81 marker and just before the Puente Tepacales. You will cross the railroad tracks, and be getting on road Col #8.
Take a right and proceed west about 4.5 miles. El Rancho Perla Negra is on your left (look for the white arch) just before the entrance to the Pueblo de Campos.
If you are coming from the direction of Cuyutlan or Colima, the exit for Campos is just after the km. 80 marker...exit, go under the bridge (a large "U") and then proceed as outlined above.
