What's nearby

  • The golden sunsets in Zihuatanejo Bay and the broad sandy beaches make for stunning memories. Thus photo was taken on Playa La Ropa, which is my favorite beach in Zihua. There are dozens of excellent beach restaurants with amazing views and delicious food. Bring a camera.

  • #LifeAtExpedia Beautiful place to have dinner and stay for sunset. There is a small restaurant that serves amazing fresh fish and very good drinks. Family friendly. Travel tip: bring a small sketch book to capture ideas or inspiration from your travel. Write down food you like, ingredients or even a recipe. Names of people you meet. Ideas that come up. When you get back home, this will help bring back the feeling of connection to other places and cultures.

Unique rooms at the unique place. Clean beach, good snorkeling conditions. Be aware that one needs to take a boat to get to the place.

Arecas is an awesome place, if you enjoy the peace and quiet, to enjoy the Zihuatanejo Bay this is for you. The owner Juan Carlos is very friendly and nice to do business with. Their employees Jose and Yensi are super friendly and helpful in all of your needs. They can provide pretty much anything you need to make your stay more pleasant. Just overall an excellent place to stay. Food and service is too notch. Tip: you can access through playa la Ropa and walk to the hotel it's about a 15 min walk

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
By far the worst vacation experience I’ve ever had. Toilet and shower with no separation. Room was dirty. Hot water was nonexistent. Air conditioner broke after 3 days. Inconvenient to get there (only by boat across the bay). Beach was super crowded. Restaurants at the beach were mediocre at best.Got locked out of the bathroom when the door locked itself. We left after 3 days and was given a partial refund for the unused days. The ONLY good thing was the view of the bay where we hoped to watch the NYE fireworks. No office to complain to. Only communication was via texts. Super primitive in every way. At least the sheets were clean.
Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2025

6/10 Okay

Way too many people on the beach during the day then a 6pm. Nothing! No food, no drinks. You are basically abandon on a desert island.
