We went to Zihuatenejo, Mexico. The beaches in Zihuatenejo were a bit dirty. So, we spent time on the beaches of Ixtapa. They were nice and clean, but crowded and filled with high rises. I wouldn't recommend Zihuatenejo or Ixtapa. I tend to prefer nice, quite, mellow resort areas. That said, I really liked the Pacific side of Mexico.
The Akumal Caribe resort near Playa del Carmen was very nice (on the east side of Mexico). I've been there 3 times, but never with my wife. Very mellow.
