About the host: My first trip to Playa de Los Muertos was spring break 1976.  The El Dorado Bar was where the hipsters, the gays, artists, musicians and partiers liked to hang out.  In 1999, on an impulse, I bought El Dorado 402, remodeled it and turned it into a vacation rental.  So the Condominios El Dorado is part of the history of this resort town with cobblestone streets and spectacular beaches, on Banderas Bay.  Its my pleasure to share it with you.
