8th CONSECUTIVE YEAR!
Who are we?

Organización Hafikoman was created to fill the need for a Kosher-for-Passover retreat; originally for the Jewish community of Mexico, and today 4 years later for an international clientele. We have had various attendants from the United States and Canada in previous years.

For more than 11 years, Lety and Beny Zlochisty have worked in the tourist industry, organizing many types of events for businesses and other groups, such as conferences, retreats, organized trips to Israel, school trips, etc. We have always had one objective: the complete satisfaction of our customers' needs.

It is for this reason that we are pleased to present our program PESACH KASHER VE-SAMEACH 2007 "THE TRADITION CONTINUES" in Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo, Mexico. It will be our pleasure to give you and your family an unforgettable experience, and we hope to be able to wish you in person CHAG SAMEACH!

The area has 15 miles of coastline, 2 miles of beaches in Zihuatanejo, and 4 miles of beaches in Ixtapa.
