We spent some time in Manzanillo last November and had to find a hotel there quickly as I was not feeling well. Unfortunately we were not able to get into La Posada as they were booked through March, but found a very lovely and spotlessly clean hotel just about 3 or 4 buildings to the North of La Posada. It was called Brisas del Mar. They had a lovely pool, air conditioning, and a very nice restaurant where they even served a large banquet style buffet breakfast one morning. We saw also local business meetings taking place there, so thought it must be popular. It is right on the ocean where you can watch the ships coming in and see the coast to the North. Will try to send you a photo attached if I can figure out how to do it on this forum.
I want to point out, that we spent the first few days of our trip (we had a rental car) at a beautiful resort further to the North called Blue Bay Los Angeles, however, the rooms were not to my liking, although the staff was very accommodating and kind, even though we had to cut our stay there short due to me getting sick. It is about 2-1/2 hours to the North, not like Expedia told us. They said it was 3.4 miles!!! from Manzanillo.
But if you have exclusive taste, you may try getting a room at Las Hadas, an exclusive golf resort, fabulous place with million $ views, but pricey. Sometimes one get lucky and find a hotel there for about $105 though. Another recommendation is The Dove Cove Inn, which many recommend, although it's difficult to get a reservation there too. It's close to Las Hadas and I heard someone say you can sneak into Las Hadas from there and enjoy their restaurant, etc.
Another nice surprise we had finding a lovely restaurant run by Austrians or Swiss? along the main road called Pergola. You may try it, although there is no shortage of good restaurants there. Have a wonderful time!
