The owner Alex is very nice and so is his staff. The location is excellent and I like the palapra with hammocks out front. The bar next door plays very loud music and the rooms are very, very basic.
Loved it 100%! On the beach!!! I plan to return and rent the same room, upstairs, facing the ocean. The property is one of the few rustic and natural, made of wood and palms. I wish I had spent more time sharing with the staff (I was too busy sunbathing); they were so cool, welcoming, and down-to-earth. Their coffee was the best coffee I had while at Zipolite. It went perfectly with astry from the bakery nearby. Amazing place.
Everything was good. The top sheet could be a bit bigger for couples. Overall it was a wonderful experience!

Best place to be a beach bum. Between the hammock, the bar and the beach I didn’t need to leave the property. (The shade and ocean breeze are the only escape from the humidity.) Staff was awesome! Made coffee early for me.🙏 Drinks were cheap too!!

Great place to stay. All staff members are helpful and friendly. It's right in front of the beach and you have the town's main street right behind the hotel; lots of restaurants, shops, pharmacies, and so on at the turn of the corner.
I didn't like that the wooden window in the room lets all the noise in and there's two bars right outside the property, right in front of your room. So you better be sleeping late on weekends. Fri to Sun I guess.
Take into consideration that the bathroom is also outside (guess it only applies to certain room types, mine was the cheapest one) so, that's how it is.
Great central beach location. Rooms are very basic.
If you're a late night person, it's great. Because you aren't going to get to sleep until the wee hours of the morning due to the alleyway right next door is a DJ/Live music venue and on the back side is a night club and they both seem to compete on who can blast more decibels.
Great budget accommodation directly on the beach with no frills. You get a bed, fan, wifi, desk, and a mosquito net. There are shared showers and restrooms. A common area with hammocks and day beds. Great for travelers on a budget and wants to be outside of their room enjoying all that Zipolite has to offer.

We booked the cheapest room and this obviously was a bit uncomfortable. Room is small with very basic facilities- 1 plug and 1 dim light. The mosquito net didn't stop the mosquitos, but you have an amazing location, right on the beach. Don't have high expectations- shower was simply a hose coming from the ceiling. Toilets need to be cleaned more often. The location is the selling point!

The common areas that f the hotel can use some implement and cleaning. The center courtyard is strewn with construction debris and old tool/equipment laying around. A paved pathway from the rooms to the shared showers and toilets would help in keeping sand and trash from sticking to our bare feet. Also, there’s only a single and terribly unstable small bathroom sink to be shared by all guests. No shelf for toiletries and shaving equipment among with a very tiny single mirror in the entire complex. A few and inexpensive additions and improvements will go a long way in making the experience at Ballelita more enjoyable.
La habitación no tenía un baño limpio. La regadera esa un tubo de agua fría, no había agua caliente, y era un poco salada. Por si fuera poco pasamos un día completo sin agua en la habitación. La atención de los chicos de recepción siempre muy lind ay buena, la cama muy cómoda, el único problema es el agua y la limpieza del baño y la regadera.
Un concepto hippie para relajarte y disfrutar, al estilo original zipolite.

Sehr gute Lage direkt am Strand. Zimmer mit Dusche sehr einfach, aber funktional. Der Duschboden könnte mal wieder neu gefliest werden. Für den Preis der Unterkunft, stimmt die Leistung aber.

Room had a fan, bed, chair, shelf, and light bulb.
Bring an extension cord as there will be only one outlet.
Room’s palapa roof will drop dust and dirt if you face the fan up.
The canopy on the bed was for dust from the palapa because it had dust and dirt on it as well, couldn’t use it for the mosquitos that will bite you all night.
Prepare for a sandy room as there is no deck from your room to the bathroom or bar area so you will track lots of sand into your room.
Bathrooms are fine, showers lacked showerhead and water had a sulfur smell. Showers flooded.
Check in is after 14:00 so the time on Expedia and on their email communication should match.
You will be on the beach and mornings on the hammocks can be restful. But require you to order from the bar if you are there in the afternoon.
Current and waves are very strong and it was recommended you don’t go in waist deep.
Town and food was fine, some restaurants were busier than others and ran out of ingredients.
A 3 star stay in general.
