The issue with having Arcadia as our summer place is that we'd need a reliable winter place as there's no flexibility with the open/close dates of the season. Renting, therefore, may be a challenge, though maybe a similar type association might work.

I have spent quite a few winter months in Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico (and other parts of Mx). Not many Americans. Popular with Canadians. I usually rent an entire 2 bdrm house with a pool for around $1,600/month. If you eat at the best restaurants in town (and they are good) you'll pay about $12 including good wine. A beer in a bar, like Negro Modelo, will be about $1. Not necessary to speak Espanol, but it makes the experience a whole lot better if you can speak a little...And during the summer you can hablar un poco de Espaņol at El Jimador in Laconia. It impresses the wait staff!

And just an aside, it used to be difficult to get a burrito in Mexico. Not anymore. Their origin was in Texas.
