Zihuatanejo hotels

my 5th stay at the Irma - always clean and welcoming - will stay again - fantastic view

We were greeted at airport(the staff emailed me ahead of time to inquire if i need any transportation). The entire staff greeted us like guest in their home on arrival. Our hostes offered us a seat in the lobby on arrival for check-in, offered us a fresh cool facial cloth and a complimentary drink while we went over a few house rules. Our hostes then escorted us to our room (each room has a unique name and number) where our bags were awaiting us. Discovered a beautiful flower arraignment on our bedding with flower pedals used to spell out happy birthday to my wife. Our oversized terrace opened to a full frontal view of the bay. If the view alone wasn't enough, the crashing sounds of the waves was music to our ears(resort built into a cliff side so lots of stairs). Hors d'oeuvres and a bucket of coronas also were waiting for us on the terrace(was thirsty). No Tv in rooms (which was ok with us) but wifi is complimentary so iPads were used for our mobile services(dish). On site restaurant provided gourmet food and pricing was consistent with quality of food/venue(over looking the bay). Our waitress Isabela had excellent recommendations for breakfast/dinner. Lounging poolside, fredy our server would bring us water without asking. On request a bucket of drinks/burgers. Thank you to entire staff to include the security guard, room service and especially Ms. Teresa the property manager who made sure we were well taken care of. Our new favorite place!

For the sixth year in a row, I am again amazed at the friendliness and helpful hospitality of the whole staff at VM!! This year I enjoyed all the buzz and fanfare of the daily morning show, 'Hoy!', broadcasting from our hotel and beach! What fun! Love love LOVE VM!!

The Hotel Aura del Mar was perfect for us. The room was spacious and comfortable. The view was amazing. This property does have stairs down to the pool and beach, but we were aware of this when we booked so we had no surprises. This was our first time in Zihautanejo and we were happy to find no crowds. The pool and beach were never crowded. This hotel is in walking distance to shopping and restaurants. We cannot say enough nice things!

My husband and I loved our early May stay at this hotel. The location was ideal at the center of the gorgeous, horseshoe shaped beach. The staff were sincerely hospitable and provided lovely service throughout our stay. We could have dined in town, but chose to take all meals at the hotel (2 restaurants). Fresh, local and healthy preparation. The "basil cocktail" at the bar was excellent. We would visit again!

This hotel is not fancy, but it has excellent views and the vegetation is to die for. Lets start with the good. The staff goes above and beyond the call of duty, super helpful and pleasant. Absolutely outstanding care and maintenance of the facilities (except for a couple of things- see below). The views from everywhere are awesome as the hotel sits on the hill side. This is also the best stretch of beach in all Zihuatanejo and Ixtapa due to the small bay that prevents high waves to develop and it allows for relaxed, even waters. Also the sand is golden and soft. The palapas are under trees that give the feeling of being in a tropical, unpretentious paradise. The hotel food and drinks are great and there are also some local restaurants along the beach that you can try for lunch or dinner since breakfast is included in the room rate. The best part for me was to be able to bring our dog with us and enjoy a vacation with her as she is most definitely part of my family. The not so good: The facilities need a little upgrading, rooms are very basic and for the price, in my opinion they need a little bit more, like a microwave oven to warm up leftovers for example, finishing one of the terraces which still shows unfinished floor and posts, repainting outside etc. However, because we spent most of our time outdoors, and we were not in the level where the unfinished terrace is, this was not a big issue. Stairs can be an issue for older or disabled people.

The place to stay if you are looking for true Mexican Hospitality!! The owners are wonderful and go out of their way to make you feel at home in this quaint hotel. It was exactly what I was looking for, no frills, living with locals and lots of laughter!! We stayed here for 8 days and felt very safe no matter where we went or what time of day. 6 blocks to the beach & shops..GREAT margaritas and local people along the way. If you are looking for lots of obnoxious tourists...go to Ixtapa. We spent 11 days at an all inclusive there, getting pushed, stepped on and having to get up at 445am to save a seat at the pool. Horrible..it was like a job for 11 days. My hotel of choice will always be Hotel Amueblados, where they make you feel like family. I hope to make this my stop every year for a least 3 weeks. Many thanks to Christian & Ebby for a very memorable stay.

It was a lovely place right on the beach; room was fantastic.

Mirna & Thomas were great both spoke English and were very professional and represented the Hotel well! They are one of the reasons why I will be staying there again in the future! The hotel it self is very clean and very modern I can't say enough what a great stay we had and how accommodating the staff and hotel were! Also having private parking in a secure lot was great!! Quick to the nice restaurants for breakfast and dinner! Thanks Hotel Zihua! & Mirna & Thomas keep up the great work! Your guys are the true meaning of Expectional Customer Service!!!
