5 de Diciembre
Located in the north part of town starting at the ocean and reaching up into the mountains, the area is a combination of new luxury homes and condos and older traditional homes. Due to the topography, many of these homes have spectacular ocean, city and mountain views.
There are plenty of young Americans and Canadians here; the area appeals to an art-loving, almost bohemian crowd.
The area is well situated with easy access to beaches, the Malecón, shopping and great restaurants – not to mention one of the best seafood, fresh fruit and vegetable markets in town. Colonia 5 de diciembre combines the feel of Old World Mexico with all the conveniences needed to live a very comfortable life. And because of the blend of people here – it truly feels like a neighborhood more than just a tourist destination.
