We enjoyed 5 weeks at this unusual home with a breath taking view. The dish washer was being repaired so we hired the housekeeper Perla for an extra day a week. The owner responded rapidly to our enquiries and check in was simple. I recommend this property.

We had a wonderful time at Casi Rumi. Located in a private gated community on top of a large hill, the views are literally breathtaking. Pool was a little cool but still refreshing. We still used it nearly every day during the afternoon heat. The kitchen is fully furnished with just about any cooking utensils you could possibly need. We used it a lot. We also watched the New Year’s Eve fireworks from the upper balcony in the master suite. That was awesome. A short call to the security gate and a cab was usually picking us up within 10 minutes or so. After our few busy days in town or on the beach, we really looked forward to coming to our peaceful hilltop retreat. We will definitely be back!

We stayed here for 3 weeks in January, and loved every moment. The house is well-equipped in a quiet area overlooking gorgeous Zihua Bay. HOUSE: Just amazing. Lovely art, comfortable beds, it's great for families or a group of friends, with a well-equipped kitchen and laundry if you decide to spend the day at home floating in the gorgeous infinity pool. Every guest who walked in the door gasped in delight with the view and the gorgeous design. LOCATION: It's not close to any stores, and just one or two restaurants, so be prepared to take taxis (which are inexpensive) everywhere - but the views and peace are well worth the trips. Plus it's a good workout to walk the neighborhood hills in the morning, listen to the birds, and look at all of the views. La Ropa is the closest beach (10 min and $5 USD away) with warm, clear, swimmable waters and plenty of beachside restaurants. It's 15-20 minutes in any direction to the central distict, grocery stories, and many other beautiful beaches. OWNERS: Casa Rumi's owners are generally very responsive and helpful online. But this is not a staffed B&B, so be prepared to figure out how to get your own big bottles of water, groceries, toliet paper and other basic directions.The friendly people at the front gates speak some English and can answer most of your questions, call you a taxi, etc. Be sure to tip them and the wonderful man who takes care of the house and the pool!

The villa is beautiful. Lots of room for our party of 2 couples and could have easily accommodated more people. Richard is an excellent host. We walked to town several times and enjoyed local food and shops. We took a taxi back up the hill to the villa. The restaurants Richard recommended were perfect for us. The villa has everything we needed and it exceeded our expectations. We are already taking about when we can return.

The house and all the amenities where great, everything went as planned. From the moment you walk through the front door you are in awe of the view (Beautiful). We did the sunset cruise with Picante catermran recommended by Richard, one of the highlights of the trip. Beaches where great, water was warm and beer was cold! Everyone we came across in town was so nice and enjoyed chatting with them. Our group of 4 would definitely recommend staying at Casa Rumi!

Stunning ! The view of the bay and the city is wonderful. A cab was never more than a10 minute wait to take you to the beach or the market . The house was modern and fully equipped. We spent several evenings watching sunsets from our outside hanging bed. Very quiet neighbors ,so very peaceful. The ac was a little fickle, but most nights we had a great breeze coming in. . The first plunge into the pool is a shock, but after a minute you adapt and it’s great. There were even guitars provided so we had a tequila sing along our last night.. Great fun in a beautiful place. We would stay again.

Absolutely jaw dropping . . Perfect place to spend Christmas Holidays with my family . Weather was beautiful . The city was a little crowded due to the Holidays. Absolute perfection !,

This property is located on top of the hill with panoramic views of Zihuatanejo and it's spectacular bay. The main level of the home has an infinity pool, living and dining rooms, full bath and kitchen all open to this view. It is also open to the elements, so if you have rain (which we did) expect it to come into this area. But, the vantage point of watching the thunder and lightening was spectacular. There are 3 bedrooms with private baths, AC and comfortable king beds. The 3rd bedroom is actually the TV room, but it's couch area makes into a large bed. The layout of the home is great and provides good privacy.It was pretty much necessary to take taxis to town or to the beach, but it was very easy and inexpensive. A call to the gate guard brought a taxi up the hill within 10-15 minutes. The owner, Richard, provides a good list of restaurants and info via email. But, a booklet in the house would also be nice. We discovered that we were in low season so a lot of places were closed for the season, though we quickly found the few open restaurants.This is a beautiful home with comfortable furnishings. Our only suggestion would be to provide more of the basic supplies such as paper goods, soaps and food basics.

I have no words to express how beautiful and pleasant the property is. We had such a wonderful time!!! Thanks for everything!!! We will be back!!!

location is stunning and trumps minor issues like not being able to safely use central water for minor kitchen duties and not being condusive to walking the neighborhood as it is hilly. Security at the front gate was very responsive to our taxi needs and our landlord was most available for an emergency that came up. Go here

Very nice, very comfortable, we really enjoy our stay!!!

We just returned from 21 days at Casa Rumi. The views cannot be surpassed, no matter what direction you look or from where. From the main living area, you see the bay, the mountains and the open Pacific ocean. If you wake during the night, you see a stunningly beautiful view of illuminated Zihuatenajo across the bay from the master bed without even getting up!, The views are everywhere. The landscaping is breathtaking. Tropical flowers, fruits and plants everywhere. Elias, the caretaker, manages them beautifully. He is there for about an hour or so 3 days a week pruning, watering and sweeping. He also takes care of the pool and miscellaneous household maintenance. Oh yes, the house itself. It is beautifully designed, equipped and furnished. Honestly, it was more space than my husband and I needed for just the two of us, but it was such a luxury to have it all to ourselves. Would be perfect for two couples. Very open to the outside and built into the cliffs in the way done only in Mexico (especially, Zihua). You can see the house no matter where you are in Zihua. It is at the very top of the highest hill at the southerly end of La Ropa. We had great fun pointing it out to people when they asked where we were staying. The pool was a little cool for us, but it probably gets more sun (and becomes warmer) later in the year. It is unheated and relies on the sun for heat. Even though we had 21 days of perfectly blue skies and sunny weather in the high 80's, the sun angles were such that the pool was shaded until about 2:00 p.m. Then it got sun, but not enough to warm it up. Good for exercise, as being at the top of the highest hill, everything is downhill to get to and uphill to return. We tended to walk out and cab back. We didn't have a car. Richard and Charlotte were gracious hosts. Very responsive to questions; both before we left and while at the house. We loved it!

My family and I stayed here for 10 days. The property was fantastic and the view was amazing! The property was extremely clean and very well maintained. It was fully equipped with everything we needed. Richard was very helpful and prompt in answering all of our questions. We would not hesitate in recommending this rental.

Wow this place definitely gets an A+ !! It is extremely peaceful and you will think that you died and went to heaven. The views from every room (including the master shower) are fantastic! The house is perfect for large families or two couples. Richard is extremely responsive and was a great host! This house is in a gated community at the very top of a hill. There is security that escorts the taxis to and from the house. It's about a mile from the beach and a short taxie ride to town. Richard's house was the most beautiful place we have ever stayed ! Richard, thanks for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful oasis !

My daughter and I just spent a week at Casa Rumi. I have traveled to Zihuatanejo (my favorite place in Mexico) over 10 times and I have never experienced a home with such a breathtaking view. The home sits on the highest point overlooking the bay's two most popular beaches. The owner of the property was very responsive and accommodating. Beyond the spectacular view and perfect location, the home is in the Cerro del Vigia development which has 24 hour gated security, tennis courts and maticulous grounds. We will be back soon!

The house was spacious and tastfully built with the natural stone floors, infinitypool in the open common area and many beautiful touches. The view is outstanding! All necessities were included if you chose to eat in. It was peaceful and very relaxing. Richard was very helpful providing us with recommendations on where to eat and communicated all we needed to know to make our stay wonderful. The tennis court is very accessible. If you stay in Zihua you will not be disappointed. We would definitely recommend.
