La Casa Cafe

5 of 5 stars
Los Angeles
18 Nov 2008

Pedro and Lorna have it figured out. From the fantastic menu to the exquisite coffees, from the excellent service to the mint on the check, they have created a world within a world that exceeds all expectations. What was a breezy recommendation turned into the finest place we visited during our long stay in Zihua. The help was eager and... more

We visited Club Med Ixtapa for 4 days with all the family. Hotel is completely renewed, the rooms are very comfortable, all installations very clean. They did a good job in the renovation. Food is very good, nothing sophisticated but excelent quality the best is the bread. All GO’s very friendly and keep good environment in the village. They really... more

Sueno del Mar

17 Nov 2008

This was my second trip to Sueno Del Mar, and again it did not disappoint. The condo, the city and the people were amazing! I booked this 10 day vacation with three of my girlfriends (one had been with me last year) and we could not have had a better trip. Harriet is fantastic and gives a plethera of information... more

Sueno del Mar

5 of 5 stars
Sacramento, CA
16 Nov 2008

Sueño del Mar was everything we'd hoped for and more. Harriet and Ron’s beautifully decorated condo is in an absolutely beautiful setting! The view...what a view! Harriet’s eclectic art selection, all the comforts of home and easy accessibility to La Ropa beach and Zihuatanejo made our short one week stay an absolute pleasure! Initially we'd reserved a car, but after... more

Hotel Tentaciones

5 of 5 stars
santa cruz, california
15 Nov 2008

My husband and I chose Zihuatanejo to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. It was a great environment with plenty to do and the perfect place to just sit back and relax. Words can not express the beauty and outstanding service at Tentaciones Hotel. I found Tentaciones online with very little information about the hotel so I really didn’t know what... more

Loma del Mar

alexandria
15 Nov 2008

My husband and I stayed at Loma Del Mar as a promotional incentive through the vacation club that was heavily marketing the property while we were in Ixtapa at the Las Brisas in March 2008. We ended up buying a 25 week membership and were told we could reserve multiple weeks per year at Loma Del Mar. Manny, the marketing... more

La Casa Que Canta

14 Nov 2008

My husband and I just returned to the UK from 2 weeks in Mexico - one of which was spent at LCQC. We had originally booked this for just 2 nights, then moving to another hotel on the beach. We moved, only to return the same day... LCQC is fabulous if you are looking for a private, beautiful holiday. The... more

Amuleto

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at the Amuleto. This hotel was everything the website promised and more! In fact the hotel website barely does this place justice. It was the ideal location for relaxation, seclusion and feeling pampered. Staying at the Amuleto was exclusive without the pretentiousness of a posh resort. The staff was remarkable, the food was... more

The Tides Zihuatanejo

Denver, CO
13 Nov 2008

I spent 4 nights at the Tides Zihuatenejo at the end of October. The resort is beautiful and the service is amazing. The hotel staff goes to great lengths to pamper you and make sure your experience is wonderful. The two restaurants are very good but very pricey. The location on the beach is what sets this property apart from... more

Villa Mexicana Hotel

I stayed at Villa Mexicana for 6 nights at the begining of November. The beach and location was wonderful but other than that the hotel was comparable to a Motel 6. All of the furniture in the rooms is made of concrete (and I mean everthing). If you want to use the safe or beach towels you have to leave... more

El Burro Borracho

We spent an amazing honeymoon at El Burro Borracho in April, 1999. We were initially drawn to this part of Mexico after watching the movie, The Shawshank Redemption. Once we saw the beautiful waters of Zihuatanejoe in the movie, we decided to spend our honeymoon there. We flew into Mexico City, took a small plane to Ixtapa, then rented a... more

Brisas del Mar Hotel

12 Nov 2008

We found out about this hotel because my girlfriend's brother had stayed there for a vacation- we heard great things about the place and Zihuatanejo. Amazing views from our room. When we walked in our jaws dropped and felt like we were in a Corona commercial. Stay away from hotel bar and restaurant- expensive! My only issue with the hotel... more

Chicago, IL

I went to Zihuatanejo for a friend's wedding in early Nov-08 and was pleasantly suprised by the whole trip. It surpassed my expectations in every way. We stayed at Villa Mexicana. A great hotel on the Playa La Ropa, that is very reasonably priced. Next to the Tides, which is much more expensive. I think Villa Mexicana is the best... more

Hotel Cinco Sentidos

5 of 5 stars
Portland
11 Nov 2008

This place is unbelievable. The hotel has but five rooms, all overlooking Zihuatanejo bay and just a five minute walk from beautiful Playa La Ropa. Each room has its own soaker pool on the balcony. The rooms are immaculate and contain refrigerators coffee pots (with great Mexican coffee) and no $5.00 water bottles. Free bottled water dailey. The grounds are... more

La Quinta Troppo

1/1 found this review helpful

The Quinta Troppo is our family's all time favorite! My husband and I started taking our daughters on "Spring Break" after they both had completed college, and we could finally afford to, and they finally were pleased to be with parents ( who would pick up the tab). As Wisconsin natives, who have our fill of snow and ice by... more

The Tides Zihuatanejo

The resort is gorgeous and we loved it , however we left with a bad taste in our mouths as an employee stole (not proven, but c'mon....it couldn't have vanished and david blaine was certainly not in the vicinity) a valuable gold necklace that was left out by the bed for ONE (1) afternoon and when we returned, it was... more

The stay here was wonderful. We stayed here for 9 days with another couple and our 2 children ages 7 months and 8 years. This place was great for the kids as the oldest had safe and fun space to run around. He even got friendly with the staff of teenage boys and would go and see them in the... more

I want to share our wedding with the rest of the world. My wife and I were married at the hotel on June 10th 2006 and it was perfect. We had 50 family and friends attend the hotel and wedding and it was perfect. Lorena and my wife set everything up and all I can say it was perfect. We... more

Brisas del Mar Hotel

I found the Hotel on Travel Advisor, and was impressed with all the great reviews. This hotel is perfect in everyway. Totally Mexican Style, Stucco, and tile roofs. All the rooms have a view, so there's no need to worry. We stayed in 105. The bed was GREAT, I was worried because someone said they were hard, ours was heavenly,... more

From the second we arrived until the moment we left we were on a wonderful vacation. "We" included my husband and I along with our two children...8 year-old boy and 6 year-old girl. Our room was fabulous, super roomy with a seperate room for the kids, nicely decorated and very clean. The kid's clubs were incredible, had them engaged from... more
