About this property
Beachfront Villa! Escape to this luxurious property 5 bedrooms, with chef & pool
Casa de Arte has been a secret hideaway for actors, musicians, writers, and A list celebrities. The large property sits on 50 meters of beach front, located on 8 miles of white sand beach called Playa Blanca and a mile from the quaint village of Barra de Potosi. The compound includes a beautiful 60' large pool overlooking the ocean and multiple casitas for an extravagant and relaxing stay. Shaded by coconut palms, this tropical paradise was designed by Enrique Zozaya, the preeminent architect in Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa.
The property is a 12 minute drive from Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa International Airport, and 20 minutes to Zihua. Airport pick up is available, if needed.
5 Bedrooms. 5 Baths, Sleeps 10
Each guest room sleeps 2. In rooms 1 and 2, the beds can be used as singles or as a single king size bed. In rooms 3 & 4 the beds are king size. The Cinema has 2 fold out couches.

Large single 60' level pool overlooking the ocean.

Barra de Potosi is a fishing village with approximately 300 people just south of the home. In Barra de Potosi you can eat fresh caught fish with your feet in the sand 30 feet from the ocean.
The Lagoon surrounding Barra de Potosi attracts bird watchers and the Audubon Society does bird counts in the lagoon once every year. You can rent a boat and spend an hour or 2 in a fantastic bird sanctuary.
If you care to fish or whale watch or to just take a pleasure trip, boats with local captains are available. We will arrange the booking for you.
Barra de Potosi has at least 10 Enramada or thatched roof restaurants where you sit on the sand while you eat. People make a day out of it, lounging for hours, eating and swimming in the ocean, just steps away from the restaurants. The little town also has a charming restaurant called Doña Emy's for classic Mexican home cooking, and a new cafe/bar called O'Ridleys Tortuga Bar.
There are many restaurants just north of the property, less than a mile away. They serve lunch and dinner and are great for big groups. Chula Vida and Lagartos are two of our favorites. We can organize reservations. The cuisine includes fresh caught fish, vegetables, salad, and cocktails. All safe to eat!
If you are planning to travel into Zihuatanejo or Ixtapa (which we recommend!), our manager Armando will be happy to arrange for a taxi or a larger vehicle. We also recommend renting a car from Ixtapa International Airport to get around Playa Blanca and travel into the city.

About the host
Hosted by Peter Locke

I met my wife Karen 40 years ago in Los Angeles. We have 2 grown sons, Taylor and Dexter. Taylor is married and Dexter is engaged. Karen and I discovered Playa Blanca 11 years ago. We fell in love with the warm water ocean, fabulous sunsets, soft sand beach and friendly people in our tiny fishing village.
Why they chose this property
We spent some time finding the right lot, 50meters x 100m, and the right architect, Enrique Zozaya. We worked with Zozaya for a year and then built our home. The design was beautiful. The construction is better than I have experienced in Los Angeles. Everything is concrete and therefore very quiet inside the bedrooms.
What makes this property unique
We designed the living space around a large pool and a very big palapa. We have enjoyed our home and use it with our family and friends all the time. We are sure that you will appreciate the beauty of the buildings, the magnificent views of the sun setting over the Pacific Ocean and the wonderful meals which are available as needed.
The grounds are filled with Mexican artwork which we purchased on our many trips through Mexico.
Finally, you have found the ultimate place to chill out. I’m sure you will enjoy this unique vacation home as much as we do!
