Spent 2wks at this property March of 2024, would give it a 4.5star. Our contact while at the property (Amado) was a great help - was there on site everyday and if we needed something he would get it for us or suggested where we needed to go - 5* for him. The property was spacious for four adults, clean, description of the amenities were accurate saying that, the bbq had seen better days (burners need replacement - difficult to cook food with uneven heat). We were unable to enjoy the balcony view from the bedrooms because there were no chairs available to sit on. It is a beautiful location/view from lower patio , yes there was 100 stairs to walk down to the road, and 10 minute walk to Centro. There are other options if you don,t want to walk - the Combi (public van) passes by the property every 7mins or call a taxi ..

Amazing views!
The unit was very spacious and well appointed, the pool although a bit small was always a refreshing break from the hot sun. The stairs leading up and down to the street could be a challenge for some people but taxis and combis are plentiful in the area. Thanks to Amado for going above and beyond to make our stay awesome!

Relaxing getaway
My family had a wonderful time at the villa! Check in was easy. The villa was very clean and spacious. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed an awesome New Year's Eve fireworks show from the balcony. Having the pool right there was a great way to cool off after a day of exploring. The property caretaker, Amado, was super helpful and we found our Zihua vacation very relaxing. We will definitely be back!

Roomy and Nice House
I enjoyed staying at this house. It has a nice view of the bay. The rooms were decent size and it was comfortable for six people. I also liked the location, allowing us to walk to Contramar. There was an unfortunate event that happened during our stay. One person was locked in the bedroom and couldn’t get out due to a door knob failure. However, the onsite manager responded very quickly. He pried out the door and freed the trapped person. The only thing that I was not completely satisfied with was the email communication with the host prior to arrival. It was somewhat challenging.

Great place to hang out
Great view of Zihuatanejo Bay looking East. Short walk into Zihuatanejo but you have to negotiate about 75 stairs. Can catch a cab from upper street also. Property is a nice three bedroom house with AC in all three rooms each with own shower and bathroom. View is spectacular and pool is great for cooling off. Amando the manager is a great guy and understands English well. Very attentive to our questions and needs. Would return to property again.

Spectacular view
This is a beautiful property. It is away from the noise of the central area and we loved climbing all the stairs daily to the beach. It is a great bonus that your car can be safely parked in a garage as well.

Perfect family get away.
We had the out door area to our selves as no one was in the unit beside us. It was perfect. If you are looking for a private place this may not work for you as the other unit is close. However, if you are fun and friendly and don't mind a 15 minute walk to the town area, it's perfect. Great fun for a group of adults as well. Good room seperation/privacy. Can't beat the views. Friendly, knowledgeable care taker. Wish I had a month not a week.

Excellent stay
We just spent 5 weeks in Zihua and we will definitely be back! Amado (the host) was friendly, informative, attentive and yet gave us plenty of privacy. Only a 10min walk into town with a good workout of 167 stairs back up to the house after dinner to work off my wine! Views and sunrises are beautiful with shade in the afternoon on the deck, Beds are firm, kitchen is well stocked, and having laundry available will allow me to come with much less next time!

Perfect place to do absolutely nothing.
This beautiful property perfectly illustrates why many travellers are preferring homes over hotels. Whether for a family, or 3 couples, this place is so spacious, well-equipped and beautifully furnished that you could never feel overcrowded! The panoramic vista is spectacular, and Jose and Amado are available and most accommodating. It’s a bit of a steep walk to town or the beach, but the delight of just hanging out there makes it well worth the effort. We would happily return!

Great Rental!
We had a great experience from the start to the end. A couple of minor issues occurred that were not the owner's fault but they were dealt with immediately.

Great place to stay in Zihua
Love being on Puerto Mio side of bay--beautiful bay and sunrise views and escape the harsh afternoon sun. Steps to town (although very steep stairway from condo to street leading to town). Very well equipped kitchen. Owner/manager very timely in responding to all questions and requests. Only downside was construction currently happening on pier that went on even through the night--bring ear plugs!

Spacious condo with fabulous outdoor space and views!
Just returned from a week long stay at this lovely condo. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the ample living space, three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and mostly the outdoor living area with shared pool and comfortable furniture. Large kitchen allows for making meals for the group. Brewed some coffee each morning and sat on the patio to catch the sunrise and watch the fishing boats come in and taxi boats to Playa las Gatas start up. Morning swims for a cool down, trip to town or a beach, but always a shady retreat in the afternoon and evenings to this patio! Mado, the property manager was very helpful and checked in with us now and then. Many steps down to the road and into town. Coming back may be hard, but it’s a cheap taxi ride back to the top of condo unit. We had the best time staying here and would love to return!

Beautiful Zihuatanejo views!
Love this property! We lived out on the deck. The view is to die for! The condo is well equipped and very comfortable. We had a small problem with one of the toilets not flushing properly in one of the bedrooms but Amado the property manager is right on site and fixed it promptly. The property rises steeply above the town (we counted 168 steps!), but we always cooled off right away in our own private pool. Highly recommend and we would go back in a heartbeat!

Perfect spot to enjoy all that Zihuatanejo has to offer!
The photos of this place do not do it justice. It’s beautiful! The deck is wonderful & the view is spectacular! The kitchen is big, the place is decorated well with pretty Mexican tile throughout. It was very clean & perfect with an adjoining bathroom in each bedroom. We had the pool to ourselves for half our stay as the next villa was vacant for the first part of our trip. It’s an easy scenic walk to Centro where there are lots of shops and restaurants or to catch a bus, taxi or water taxi to get somewhere else in Zihua. There’s so much to do and see here. Very easy taxi ride home from anywhere in Zihua at the end of the evening. Jose was easy to communicate with and very nice. Loved Amado the site manager, he was so accommodating, nice and generous, he also has the cutest and best dog Booboo. I will definitely be back!
