Great time it was a good stay a good distance from everything

5 stars for beach proximity, location to excellent restaurants, vista views, room cleanliness, lovely pool and balcony bar. 1 star for condition of the room/bathroom, bedding, dingy towels, large space beneathe door showing daylight and odd service at front desk & at breakfast. The older front desk man was not friendly, never inquired about our experience while checking out, no smile, only wanted to radio maid & make sure we left room in satisfactory condition.

January 2024. The staff here are very lovely and kind.The pool was clean & nice and deep although only 2 lounge chairs for the whole hotel. Do not bother with the all included breakfast. It was terrible at best making us not want to order anything else out of the onsite restaurant. The beds were extremely hard but the location was absolutely perfect. Just a quick three minute walk to the beach.

They do not leave clean towels unless you request them during specific hours. They stole $100 from my bag.

Sheets were dirty. Loud music from the restaurant.

I really liked how the hotel look like a Hacienda, but it needs to be updated…it would of been nice if it had a fridge inside the room. The bathroom sink has a crack and it leaks, other than that it was just ok… the swimming pool was nice the staff was very friendly .

The hotel is well located close Madeira beach access. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are very basic, but who spends much time in your hotel room when you are in Zihua.

The hotel needs some work, could only have a cool shower no real hot water but okay as it was hot weather. Issues getting towels each day, some days lots other days had to ask as they took them away but didn't replace them. The staff especially in the breakfast room were very friendly and nice, helpful even when there was a language barrier. Not fancy but it's okay.

Cute place, nice pool and bar area upstairs. Wifi only worked in lobby, not in rooms as the online description stated. Breakfast was pleasant, and service was very friendly. Our room had leaks both in the sink and the shower; which made for quite a slippery/messy and potentially dangerous situation. We told staff about it right away but nothing was repaired during our stay, so we had to improvise, using the bathroom trash bin to catch the water under the sink, and had to mop up the floor after showering with sopping wet floor mats and hand/face towels daily. Made for a lot of laundry since we try to be more eco-friendly and typically don’t replace our towels daily. Beds and pillows were a bit lumpy and our windows didn’t close shut. Lots of storage in the room for clothing and there was a lot of hot water which was a very nice redeeming quality. Just needs some TLC/maintenance, otherwise a nice place with easy beach access.

Great affordable hotel with good breakfast

Hotel Zihua Caracol is a wonderful choice in terms of its price-point and location. It is convenient for both the main waterfront and also Playa La Ropa, while being quieter than places in the center of town. It is not on the beach, which I prefer because of quietness, but it has superb views and is really only 200 meters from the beach. The included breakfast is great.

Property was decent. According to Expedia, the room was supposed to have a private balcony but it was a shared terrace, no smoking allowed. Free breakfast was convenient.

This would have been a salutary review if there wasnt a persistent smell of feces in the room. I told mment of the fact and they just shrugged their shoulders and said that this happens when the have a lot of guests. I guess it wasnt just my room. The fact that they had all the unrented rooms airing out should have been a signal. Other than that and the thin curtains, noisy families, maid that didnt come until 4pm,braying dog at 5am and rear half of unfinished rooms it was actually ok. Just behind the first row of hotels. Pool. Bfast, Ok cable and air. Clean. Big simple room. Ok water pressure and heat. View of bay. Pretty quiet. Good value if not for the sewer poisoning.

Our room was pretty spartan but for the price we felt very comfortable. Its dated but hey... your in Mexico! The beds left a lot to be desired, had a issue with one of the light switches (got a tingle every time we touched it...staff fixed next day) and towels seemed to be at a premium. A Real Premium... they lighten up a bit after wed been there a couple days. On the plus side the staff was great, everything was cleaned daily, the pool was awesome, the free breakfast very good( 3 days), the rooftop restaurant very nice(twice) with a beautiful view and the surrounding area was great. As you might expect so many places to see, eat at and check out we didnt eat or stay at the hotel very much. For us la Madera is the area to be in.
