About this apartment rental
As you open the door to the “Los Pelícanos” building at Punta Marina, you will feel an overwhelming sense of beauty and peace. Located in a private, hillside complex overlooking the ocean, the condo has a panoramic view of Zihuatanejo Bay, the town, and the surrounding mountains. You can enjoy this breathtaking view from the huge private terrace, dining area, kitchen, open-air living room, and two of the bedrooms.
Built in 2008, this spacious 2,500-square-foot condo offers plenty of room for your relaxation and comfort. All of the woodwork and decorative elements have been handmade by local craftsmen for a classic and elegant Mexican feel. The condo occupies the third floor of a five-level building, assuring tranquility and a lovely, ocean breeze. The condo faces north so the rooms stay nice and cool during the day and offer an unobstructed view of the sunset over the ocean. You can count on the soothing ocean breeze to lull you to sleep, although each room is also equipped with ceiling fans and air conditioning for hotter summer nights.
The master and second bedroom each have an en suite bathroom with a tastefully tiled shower and a beautiful, handpainted Talavera sink. The third bedroom has easy access to a third bathroom just down the hallway. A large modern kitchen with an ocean view makes cooking a pleasure. The adjoining dining area can comfortably accommodate eight guests at the one-of-a-kind glass and cactus root table. One of the best features of the condo is the folding glass door that joins the dining area to the open-air living room for a truly unique living space.
The terrace is furnished with very comfortable and modern seating, a traditional Mexican equipal dining set for four, and a small soaking tub for two – the perfect place to cool off and enjoy a margarita at sunset. The terrace is also equipped with an entertainment center complete with CD player, TV, and DVD player.
The condo is just a three-minute walk to La Ropa Beach - so close that you can actually hear the sound of the splashing waves. As you make your way to the beach down the stairs and along a quaint path, there's a large waterfall pool surrounded by a tropical garden and you may hear parrots in the trees or see an iguana sunbathing! La Ropa Beach, which has pristine white sand and crystal clear water, is bordered by palm trees and several beachfront restaurants that serve scrumptious seafood. Just across the street from the condo is “La Escollera,' a five-star restaurant with a beautiful view and an infinity pool. A five-minute drive will take you to downtown Zihuatanejo where you will find a classic, old-Mexico style atmosphere with pedestrian-only streets, a wide range of eating/dining experiences, and numerous “Tiendas de Artesanias Mexicanas' (Mexican handcraft shops).

What a beautiful condo and in an excellent location especially if you enjoy walking. It's about 5 minute stroll to La Ropa beach and also good access to las Gatas if your choose that direction. It took us approx 40 minutes to walk to the town which we did for exercise most days. Taxis are easy to get for 100 pesos as well if you prefer! The condo is lovely, quiet with an amazing view! Outdoor living space is spectacular! The owner is just great to deal with! Very good communication and his property caretaker Dulce is wonderful. Our stay was for 11 nights and she came to help today and house keep 3 times so as to leave us with privacy which was really appreciated! Our favourite restaurant is a 5 minute walk down to the beach! La Gaviota. We would rate the entire experience a 5/5! Thank you so much!

We stayed at this property for one month. The large shaded terrace has a lovely view. The condo is immaculate and well located walking distance to the beach but far enough away to offer a sense of privacy and tranquility. We had to reschedule our dates due to unforeseen circumstances and the owner was responsive and efficient. A very relaxing stay. Recommended.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The condo is comfortable and roomy. We loved the outdoor living room and dining on the covered veranda. Dulce, the property manager, was delightful. We had her cook some meals for us which was such a treat. Real home cooking with a smile. The pool was refreshing and the grounds beautiful. We enjoyed the view and felt very safe there.

Absolute comfort and beauty
We had the most incredible stay in Zihua at this gorgeous property. Jaime was the most attentive, helpful host and Dulce, the onsite manager, was absolutely lovely, and wow what a cook! Dulce graciously made us dinner one night and it was out of this world. We felt so taken care of throughout our entire trip from before we arrived to while we were there. The view from this property is outstanding! The condo was very clean, well-stocked and extremely comfortable. We even watched the NBA finals from the enormous patio. The patio plunge pool was decadent and the onsite pool was lovely in the afternoon after spending the day at the beach. This property is a true delight. I can't wait to visit again.

Great condo, fantastic view
We are five people, two couples and one single. We stayed for a couple of weeks in this accommodation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Jaime's condo. It was bright, roomy, comfortable, clean, with a fantastic view, large pool, comfortable beds, air conditioning, amazing gardens, and well-supplied kitchen. The owner went out of his way to accommodate all of our needs.
It is the perfect place for a group with no mobility issues. It is located in an area with hills and in a complex with many steps. This of course is why the view is so great. We used taxis when we felt the need and they were not expensive.
The pleasant maid, Dulce, was available upon request and helped make our stay even better.
We would definitely recommend this condo.

Spacious
Overall great experience Dulce is great cooked a couple times. Very big and clean. Would like cable for longer stays. Internet was ok cut out a few times. Close to beach but a fair amount of stairs.

Loved it!
This condo was perfect - the space, furnishings, fully-equipped kitchen, incredible view, and the best pool we've ever experienced in Zih. The owner provided impeccable customer service, and his manager (Dulce) proved to be as sweet as her name. The trek to the beach is a physical challenge, but short, and we love the built-in exercise that Zih provides in general. Plus, Punta Marina's steps are easier easier to navigate than the steep road we walked when renting other properties. I would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful Condo Overlooking the Bay
My wife and I were joined by our three adult children here for Christmas in Zihuatanejo. This three-bedroom unit was perfect for the five of us. When we were in the condo, we spent most of our time on the beautiful private patio. The patio had plenty of room for eating, drinking, lounging, and playing games.
The condo complex has a shared pool that was very pretty and clean, but entirely too cold and shaded for use in December.
The walk down to the beach was an easy 5 minutes or so. The walk back was pretty strenuous. The kids in their 20s and 30s didn’t seem to mind, but my wife and I took a cab up each day. We considered that 70 pesos well spent!
Dulce is available for cooking and cleaning. We had her cook breakfast every day and enjoyed her tremendously. She was friendly and funny, and she is a great cook! She was attentive to our needs, but she stayed out of our way so we could enjoy our vacation. Dulce doesn’t speak English, but we speak enough Spanish between us to make it work.
The leasing agent was also very helpful in making sure we had the information we needed for a trouble-free stay.

Fantastic view, location and family friendly!
We stayed here for a week(two adults and three small kids). Location was great, short walk to Playa la ropa and more than enough room for everyone. The kids had fun playing in the pool and waking up in the morning to that view was exceptional. The outdoor living space was a highlight of the stay. Dulce was fantastic, she had groceries waiting for us upon our arrival and we were able to book her to cook dinner for us one night. Well worth it! The hosts were very helpful and provided a great booking experience. We WILL be back!

Wonderful place to experience Zihuatanejo
Our family of five adults stayed at the condo for a week and truly enjoyed the experience. The condo itself is very comfortable and clean. We spent the majority of the time, when we were not at the beach or pool, using the outdoor living space. The view of Zihuatanejo is amazing. Playa la Ropa is a beautiful, clean beach. Our group had no problem with the trek to and from the beach, we considered it part of our daily workout. It would be a challenge for people who have difficulty with stairs or steep climbs. Central Zihua is charming. We had very good food at several restaurants in town and on the beach. Dulce cooked a delicious dinner for us one evening as well. We would love to return to Zihua and this condo again.

Great Condo, lovely location
The condo is a 5 min walk to the beach. Plenty of restaurants beachside. Lovely clean water and clean beach. 5 min drive to town. The condo is modern with all the conveniences. AC/Wireless etc. The best part is the breathtaking view of the bay. You could sit on the veranda all day. Beautiful spot, beautiful condo. Last thing, definitely have Dulce (the property manager) cook you breakfast each morning. Totally worth it. Hand made tamales, eggs frittata, beans, rice, pancakes--the works. She is the real deal.

Lovely holiday!
Very much enjoyed staying at the condo. Fabulous views day and night! Plenty of room for 3 couples. The terrace was lovely....we spent most of the time out there when we were home. There are some good restaurants within walking distance (at least walking there, maybe not back) - would recommend El Vigia. We cooked dinner in about half the time which worked well with the size of the kitchen - its very well equipped. La Ropa beach is about a 10 minute walk downhill. Once again, some of us taxied home and some of us walked back every day!

Great Holiday Escape!
Perched just high enough to afford the most beautiful views and the best ocean breezes, the position of this condo is outstanding. It is spacious, very well cared for and has all of the amenities. Focal point for us was the great outdoor living space……a very large terrace with comfortable lounging, basket swings, spa pool, TV (did not use much) and the most spectacular views. The owner and his assistant made it easy right from the beginning...very responsive and genuinely wanted us to enjoy ourselves. His suggestions for restaurants were excellent as well as other information in his welcome packet. We especially enjoyed Bistro del Mar, went there twice. Zihua was a seafood haven....excellent and beautifully prepared everywhere we ate. Dulce, the housekeeper, welcomed us and gave us the tour of the condo, generally made herself available to us. And her husband, Fernando, drove us where we needed to go. Do have Dulce make you a dinner or two and a breakfast as well……all were terrific. We did not need a rental car; cabs were plentiful and inexpensive. We had a fantastic, relaxing couple of weeks and would happily return to this condo.

Christmas 2015 Stay
We (my husband and I and our two 20-something kids) all loved this beautiful, excellently-located condo where we spent a wonderful week over the holiday. Plenty of space and privacy for each of us, and a terrific, fully-equipped kitchen for all the cooking that we did (taking advantage of the delicious just-caught seafood available in Zihua). Individual air-conditioning units in each of the bedrooms and the "great room" were a convenience, though we made do with the ceiling fans most of the time. The spacious, covered terrace with its view of (conveniently nearby) La Ropa Beach, the hills and the city center in the distance, is perhaps the best feature. Furnished with couch, chaise lounges, hammock-chairs and entertainment unit (tv and DVD player), the terrace is so spectacular you don't even want to leave! And if you don't want to go too far—though the beach, with all its activities and restaurants, is just a 6 minute walk (if a bit of a workout climb back)--the complex's swimming pool is large and very refreshing and never (in our experience) crowded. Housekeeper Dulce was lovely and prepared a delicious meal for us one evening. And the owner gave us loads of helpful information for our stay. We really look forward to returning.

Second time and going back for more
This is our second stay at this amazing condo. From the moment we walked through the door, we fell in love with the place and the setting. There are incredible views of the bay from the living room as well as the master bedroom. Nothing like waking up in the morning and seeing a gorgeous beach in front of you! We were very impressed with the impecable cleanliness of the condo and the tasteful decor. It is very spacious and the outdoor balcony (overlooking the bay) is one of the best features. It is the perfect place to lounge, eat, play games, read, etc... Both times we were travelling with children and they loved the pool, the hammocks and the beach. The condo is stocked with all the amenities you will need and the washing machine is a great asset, especially when you have young children. The pictures are exactly what it looks like. The den with the futon has now been turned into a lovely third bedroom. The owner Jamie is a pleasure to deal with, was incredibly helpful with suggestions of places to visit and eat, and really took the time to meet our needs and make us feel at home.
Dulce is amazing. She kept the condo super clean, her cooking is delicious- well worth retaining her services.
We definitely recommend this place to anyone and look forward to our next visit.

First time and loved it!!
The view were breathtaking, the accommodations were great and the food mouthwatering. We stayed for 10 days and really had a chance to explore different beaches, shop, and eat at different restaurants. I was surprised as to how reasonably priced everything was. The locals....very friendly, polite and the service was excellent. Dulce - was the best...her home cooked meals brought back sweet memories of my grandmothers cooking. She made sure our condo was clean every day and stocked with food and drinks. My favorite beach was Las Gatas, it was withing walking distance of the condo - I loved staying on the beach drinking margaritas while my husband went snorkeling.
We enjoyed our stay so much we are making arrangements to go back next year. Thank you so much to the owner - Jaime, we had a wonderful time thank you for making our stay unforgetable.

Repeat Vacation
My husband and I came to this beautiful condo on La Ropa Beach back in March and loved it so much we decided to bring our brother and sister-in-law back with us for another vacation. Luckily we were able to stay10 days this time and loved every minute of it! There is no way to describe the view from the condo of the beach, the pool, the town of Zihuatanejo and the lush greenery - you must see it for yourself!! With the extra days we were there this time, we had a chance to revisit each of the beaches we went to back in March and go to some of our favorite restaurants in town and also try some new restaurants. We enjoyed having breakfasts each morning on the open air patio and then took time to have drinks in the evening - it was all very relaxing and enjoyable! We had Dulce come several times to make us breakfast and also dinners and she was a treasure! We also had her come several times to clean the condo. Everything we needed was provided in the condo just like a five-star resort. You could not ask for a more lovely place to spend a relaxing vacation! Many, many thanks to the owner of the condo - it is such a treasure! We will definitely be back again!

Fabulous vacation stay
My wife and I rented this condo for a spring vacation get-a-way. It was a fabulous condo that far exceeded every expectation we had from the website description and pictures. The condo was extremely spacious and wonderfully situated on the side of a hillside with a terrace overlooking the association pool/ocean/beachfront providing beautiful day/evening views and cool breezes off the ocean on warm days. The property was very well maintained that had everything one would expect at a 5 star resort with all the amenities of being in your home. We had the property housekeeper cook and serve all our meals on the terrace which was excellent. The owner provided a very thorough guide to the condo and area activities. All of the attractions listed on the website are worth checking out or simply just enjoying the refreshing outdoor pool on site. It’s also a great place to just RELAX – that’s what we did and had the most relaxing vacation of a lifetime. I’d highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful holiday on the Mexican Riviera.

Romantic 2nd Honeymoon
My husband & I came to Zihua for our 25th wedding anniversary & were quite impressed by Jaime's (the owner) service to us prior to our visit. He was full of information about the condo & the area & gave us wonderful tips about what to do while we were there. His pictures of the condo & the view were exactly as they appeared – gorgeous, meticulously clean and very relaxing. We were blown away by not only the views from the condo but also the warm, kind & helpful people we met while there, the wonderful restaurants and the gorgeous beaches. From the moment we opened the door to the condo we knew we were “home” for the week & could hardly tear ourselves away from the gorgeous view from the open-air balcony & the master bedroom. Dulce was a wonderful asset to the condo as she had stocked the fridge with everything we needed before our arrival (at our request) and then came in during the week to clean. We didn’t have her cook any meals for us but she was available if we wanted her to–we’ve never had service like that at any other places we’ve stayed. We also had all the amenities we needed from the fully stocked state-of-the-art kitchen to the laundry facilities inside the condo to beach chairs & beach towels. There is air conditioning in the condo but we never turned it on as we kept all the doors and windows open & were quite comfortable.
We rented a car while we were there upon Jaime’s recommendation & were so glad we did. Every day we went to a different beach and loved every one of them. Funny story, on our walk down to La Ropa beach one day, we met a woman who is an ex-pat & has lived there for 30 years & she told us how to get to Las Gatas beach which she said “you have to be part goat to get there”….yes, you did, as we had to scurry over rocks & a narrow path along the water but what a fun adventure it was! It was a beautiful, peaceful beach with some wonderful restaurants & well worth the walk. Another favorite beach was in Ixtapa on Isla Ixtapa where you had to take a short 5 minute boat ride over to the island where there were 4 different beaches each with their own restaurants to choose from. Also, upon Jaime’s recommendation, we went to a beach by the airport called Barra de Potosi which was heavenly. The restaurant had the most amazing bar-b-que fish lunch and so inexpensive too. The restaurants in town were also very good – we had excellent, inexpensive meals at each one we went to.
I highly recommend this beautiful condo!

Delightful condo
My partner and i have rented condos in many places. THis place was wonderful and the owner could not have been more helpful and accommodating. you feel like you are staying in someone's well appointed home, not a stripped down investment property. While not really walking distance to town, the area is very quite and the walk down to the beach did not take long ( a lot of steps, though). Dulce did a nice job and she even did some food shopping before we got there, and was waiting for us when we arrived.....ON CHRISTMAS DAY. The place was super clean and the photos were indeed very accurate.The view was truly spectacular and we can't wait to return.

"Great Grandma 88 years old and still tracking"
I couldn't have been more pleased with this condo for our stay in Zihuatanejo. The spacious rooms are light, airy and tastefully furnished, with a fully equipped kitchen. The view of the bay and the beach from the terrace is not only spectacular during the day, but at night the lights from the town across the bay are equally breathtaking. We [I, my daughter, her husband and my grandchildren] are looking forward to staying in this condo again next year.

Great Condo on La Ropa Beach
My girlfriend and I just returned from a week's stay in Zihuatanejo. It was my first trip, but my girlfriend has been several times. When we began our search for lodging she insisted on staying on La Ropa beach, as opposed to Downtown Zihuatanejo. I was very pleased by the decision to do this. While we weren't walking distance into town, we were just a short walk to the best bathing beach, which had plenty of restaurants and several little markets. Downtown is just a short ride, maybe 5 minutes, but we only went into town a few times for groceries and shopping. We preferred the peacefulness and tranquility of the condo and La Ropa beach. The condo itself is really nice and new. It looks exactly as it does in the photos and was impeccably clean upon our arrival. We were impressed by the tasteful blend of modern and traditional Mexican decorations and furnishings, which looked classy and clean. We also LOVED the open air balcony overlooking the bay, and spent many many hours lounging on the sofa with our books. The showers were also a favorite feature. They are big walk-ins decorated with pebbles. There are new a/c units in each room, but we opted to keep the huge balcony sliding doors and every window open instead. The kitchen is also fully stocked with utensils and appliances, and there is a washing machine in the back room. We are looking forward to coming back with several our close friends.
