A stunning view of Mazatlan, the ocean and Isla de la Piedra….Stone Island. The roof-top pool and lounge area on the Freemen Hotel is a favourite place to grab a strawberry margarita, or perhaps a 43 on ice, watch the sun sink into the ocean and gaze out over the city and harbour. The Freemen sits at the south end of The Malecôn, a 21 km long promenade along the pacific ocean where people gather in the evenings to enjoy the view and feel the warm, friendly atmosphere of relaxation. In the photograph top-right, at full size you can just make out the 9 plex I stay in situated in front of the mountain just left of centre.
