After two years of cancelled trips to Zihua, we were thrilled we found this condo in a building where had stayed on a prior trip. We were not disappointed in anything. We loved the openness, the views, the breezes and all of the spots to sit and relax. We were happy to share with another couple who came with us for their first time. We cooked most breakfasts in as it was hard to match a morning of relaxing here. Mary, the host and Carmen, the manager have to be thanked for prompt replies to inquiries. Every positive comment about this property is accurate. Thank you, owners, for sharing your wonderful place. Lucky you.

My dad and I stayed here for nine days and our jaws quite literally dropped when we walked in, the penthouse is beautiful! Everything was beyond perfection and we had the most incredible stay. The kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, etc. were all stocked with anything we needed and more. The penthouse is also situated in the best possible location with downtown or La Ropa in easy walking distance. There was also 24/7 security at the building which felt very secure and safe, though the area felt extremely safe already. Our host Mary was also very quick to help us out with any questions we had throughout the trip and the property manager Carmen was very helpful as well. Our trip was truly a dream getaway and we can't wait to come back again!

We had stayed at another unit in Bahia Suites on a previous stay, so we were familiar with the complex. The penthouse is beautiful! It's the perfect combination of rustic, authentic charm, yet updated amenities. The private terrace and dipping pool are an incredible bonus. We left all the patio doors and windows open 24/7. There was a great though-breeze during the night for comfortable sleeping in the upstairs bedroom. Carmen was great, and even offered to drive us to our next accommodation, which was a gracious offer and nice surprise. Mary was super responsive from inquiry to booking to questions/concerns. We look forward to staying again, and have already inquired about future dates.

We have stayed in this building 3 times before and love the amazing view, close proximity to the best beach in Zihua and the neighborhood , but the penthouse is another level of vacation !! On top of the world best 360 degree views in Madera, cool breezes, private pool.....awesome ! The staff and manager are extremely helpful and the remodeled kitchen is beautiful. And you get plenty of exercise climbing the stairs to the too, especially from the beach. Legs in winter shape now !

Perfect location and the property was as expected. Having the private pool was a bonus. Carmen the property manager took great care of us. It was a once in a lifetime trip.

This was a vacation from hell! The place flooded twice, the first time due to leaving the doors and windows open....to get a breeze going through (we were told to by the property manager) the place is not air conditioned.....which we knew but what we didn't know is that if it rains you will have 2" of water throughout the whole condo. The second time it flooded was also due to rain, but this time we quickly closed all the doors and windows. The dipping pool then overflowed into the condo causing another 2" of water throughout. Both my husband and I slipped on the very slippery tiles and bruised our elbows and knees. They then drained the dipping pool leaving about 4" of stagnant water. On our 4th day I was sitting with my feet in the water to cool off and when I stepped out I slipped on the tiles and broke my arm in 2 places. We were promised maid service each day but she only came once, the day after we arrived. We didn't get clean towels or linens during our stay or even garbage bags. We saw cockroaches the size of my hand in the pull out couch in the living room and there were thousands of tiny ants all over the kitchen area. The kitchen is nowhere near the chef's dream kitchen as they state, there isn't even a dishwasher. It's nice to look at in the pictures but it certainly didn't live up to my expectations. If you aren't an athlete then the stairs will definitely be an issue.....not just to the condo itself but also to the beach....then there's a hill with at least a 25% grade to walk anywhere. I have used VRBO in the past and been very happy....this was NOT one of those times! We left early due to having surgery on my arm and feeling unwelcome afterwards. We checked into a hotel in Ixtapa, which added to the cost of our trip but due to the situation at the condo we had no choice. The building manager did take me to the hospital, but after tipping her quite well for her doing that we never saw her again. It was almost like they got angry at me for getting injured on their property due to their negligence! There should be non-slip tiles around the pool, the tiles are very slippery when wet which was most of the time. I paid alot of money for this trip to celebrate my birthday and my husband's retirement and it was a NIGHTMARE! No wonder there's only a few pictures...... I would NOT recommend this place to anyone!

Everything written about the property is accurate. The penthouse was very clean and had all the amenities needed for a great stay in Zihua. It is a short walk to the town center or a quick taxi to LA Ropa. We will definitely come back!

Outstanding condo with incredible views. This was a nice change of pace for us as far as destinations in Mexico. We enjoyed everything about the penthouse and enjoyed exploring the town.

Great location, 1 million dollar view! The place is fantastic my wife friends have an amazing time. You can find anything you need in the house. Highly recommended, downtown is just a few minutes walking distance, there is a few great restaurant down the street. I definitively go back to that place, the communication with the owner was great really responding any questions in a matter of minutes. Nothing to complain for far one of my best places ever!! Enjoy it you wont regret it!!

The accommodations, the communication, the 360° views, the pool, the security and Carmen the property manager were all top notch. We hope to return soon.

The condo is amazing...everything as described and more. It was amazing sitting out on the deck having morning coffee looking out over the bay and hillsides surrounding it...so relaxing!! The dipping pool was so refreshing and just what we needed after a sunny hot day. Of course the main pool was very, very nice as well. Everything you need is there close by with some awesome restaurants within walking distance. I felt totally safe with Covid going on. Most places required masks, squirted you with hand sanitizer and took your temp before allowing you to enter. Much more cautious than here in our state. Mike & Mary are fantastic hosts I have utilized VRBO a number of times and they were the very best hosts and now new friends!! I will be coming back here again and so will the friends that came with me!!

4 adults stayed for 10 days. Check in was easy - Carmen met us at arrival. The property was perfect - clean, well equipped, great location, friendly staff on site, quiet, best view...the list is endless!! Booking was easy, communication was quick and we were able to get a late check out. I would definitely recommend this property and would love to return!!

We stayed there for 8 nights, what a fantastic place. We enjoyed the location, nice walks on the new Paseo de Pescador and over to La Ropa every day. The accommodations were great, comfortable beds and everything was super clean. It is 150 stairs from the sand to our bed which was not a problem for us but can be for others. No air conditioning in master bedroom, again we do not have A/C at home so were fine but it would be too warm to sleep for some people. The kitchen had everything you could possibly want and the dipping pool was a great place to cool down later in the afternoon. We hope to be back there again in the future.

"Oh My Gosh" When we arrived on the property, we were greeted by the friendliest security guard, maintenance man and the property manager Carmen. The entry to the property is a bit lack lustre, however upon opening the door of the Penthouse suite it was a breathtaking moment. The property was immaculate and so heartwarming, and very well equipped. The suite has 180 degree views from inside with decks and terraces on top and bottom floors. The patio and dipping pool with the incredible views of Madera Beach and downtown Zihautenjo were our favourite, The city views at the front of the suite were equally impressive and gives one a more accurate idea of how large Zihautenjo is. The location to restaurants, the German Bakery, Market, downtown shops, boat docks(for fresh fish) is so convenient even the Mega store is within walking distance. Upon our arrival the property manager Carmen provided us with helpful local information and really promoted her city. This is our third year staying in beautiful condos in Zihautenjo, this condo unit was by far our favourite and hopefully we will stay there again, Thank you Mary and Mike for allowing us a little piece of your paradise.

This property was almost perfect for our vacation. The reason I say almost is that the couple we travelled with had issues with the hill leading to the condo and the 4 flights of stairs within the building. I quite enjoyed them and used it as part of my daily exercise routine. You should be aware that if anyone in your party has mobility issues, this may not be the place for you. Other than that I cannot think of any place I would rather be! The private pool was a godsend and perfect in every way. The unit was well equipped with quality appliances, utensils and dishes and the recent renovations gave everything a modern feel. The view is better than the pictures show and with decks on both sides of the penthouse you can always find sun or shade - whatever you like. The staff was amazing and so helpful in every aspect. I would certainly like to return to Zihua and particularity to the condo. Thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful space.

The owners were super responsive from the moment we submitted our request all the way until we headed back home from our vacation. Their propery manager, Carmen, was also very responsive handling our various Zihua-related questions during our stay and the doormen were super friendly. The condo has a gated security entrance staffed 24 hrs, so the doormen would let us in and out as we needed. The unit is looks just as awesome in real life as you see in the pics. Updated super nice a year ago, I believe. We were there during the absolute hottest/muggiest time of the year so we slept in the air conditioned bedroom on the main floor. The huge master suite on the upper level, reachable via circular wooden staircase, was beautiful but unfortunately was too warm to sleep in during our stay. There were large slider windows on either side of the master suite to allow a really nice cross breeze, which would have been amazing during any other time of year except the summer hot season. We tried it out one night, but I sleep too warm and hand to abandon ship for the A/C bedroom. My wife, however, sleeps cooler and said she probably could have slept through the night if I hadn't been shifting around so dang much. :) The condo is conveniently situated immediately next to a super nice white sand beach (Playa Madera), a 10 minute walk from a Mega (similar to Walmart) grocery store, and a 6-7 minute walk from Zihua's central business district, which is where all the local shops and restaurants are. We walked everywhere because it was so easy to do so. The unit also has a very nice kitchen area with most all the basic utinsels you'd need to cook whatever you want there in the room. We made breakfast there almost every day and ate out for all other meals. Really enjoyed sitting on one of the two north-facing balconies enjoying our breakfast and coffee each morning. Our favorite aspect of the condo was the beach-facing balcony, complete with appx 10'x10'x18"deep cooling pool. The view of the bay was incredible but the cooling pool was an absolute delight (and necessity). It was so hot, our pool was actually cooler than the water at the beach itself! Needless to say, we spent a lot of time staying close to the pool! All in all, we had a fantastic experience and plan on coming back to stay again.

This rental is a real beauty. It's exactly as described here; very roomy, sparkling clean, well appointed, good beds and a view like no other. We absolutely love this area of Zihua and this suite made for a perfect vacation. The 2 balconies have terrific views and we spent lots of time on both. The dipping pool on the main balcony was perfect for hot days and warm evenings. Everything is very close by: convenience/beer store, beach, ATM, restaurants, taxis, etc. The owner, manager and building staff all provided excellent communication and service. We dined out many times - they were all good - shout out to Restaurante Madera (right on the beach on the sand) and La Tasca (short walk down the Fishermans Walk). I would highly recommend this rental. I'll never ever forget that view!
