About this property

Indulgent, Romantic and Utterly Private—Relax in Affordable Luxury 3BR

Perched on a verdant slope overlooking Playa la Ropa, our lovely Zihuatanejo vacation rental offers a quiet retreat in the heart of the Mexican Riviera. We have everything you could possibly want, including 300 square meters of luxury space, two private decks, and a resort-style pool you’ll practically have to yourself. All that’s missing is you!

This spacious and quiet condo accommodates six guests with room to spare, and its amenities rival that of an upscale hotel.

The peaceful master bedroom suite has a king-size bed and a large deck where you can sunbathe while taking in the view of Zihuatanejo Bay. The ocean breezes from both terraces are divine!

The second bedroom, also with a king-size bed, provides sweeping views of the surrounding mountains. The third bedroom features a full-size bed and a twin-size bed. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, ceiling fan, and A/C.

Whether you prepare your own meals or take advantage of our traditional chef services, you’ll find everything you need in our fully-equipped kitchen. Gather in the indoor dining area for an informal lunch, or dine alfresco on the deck as you drink in the view of the Pacific Ocean. Afterwards, sunbathe by the resort-style pool as you sip your salt-rimmed margarita and enjoy the light ocean breeze.

When you’re ready for a change of scenery, it’s a short, four-minute walk to Playa la Ropa, where you can swim, boat, snorkel, and dive. Las Gatas, a secluded beach you can only reach by boat or by foot, is a ten minute walk from the rental. There are numerous eateries within walking distance as well, including many hole-in-the-wall favorites and high-end restaurants with well-known chefs. You can also drive five minutes to Ixtapa, a small town with two world-class golf courses, a traditional handicraft market, and a variety of restaurants and nightclubs.

This gorgeous, luxury condo is one of 14 in the development, but it offers complete privacy, relaxation, and comfort, whether you’re a large family or a couple on a romantic getaway.

Our stay

The condo is large and spacious with 3 bedrooms that are nicely spaced out, roomy and each comes with it's own bathroom. My brother and his wife stayed with us for just over a week and it was nice for them and us to have our own space in the morning. The walk to the beach was easy and after a few days the walk back from the beach was easier. Beautiful view.

Beautiful!

This property is amazing. This was our second time staying at Punta Marina and everything was as wonderful as the first time. The views are amazing, the beds are comfortable and it is a 5-10 minute walk to La Ropa beach, which is fabulous. If you have a chance, I would definitely recommend Sylvia to cook dinner one night. She is a great cook and will help you with anything you need. I would definitely recommend and cannot wait until our next stay. Thank you!

Breathtaking views, perfect location!

Right from the booking to the end of our stay, Oscar and Sylvia made everything easy. The condo is lovely, the views and sunsets are stunning and it is a close distance by cab to get anywhere. It was perfect for the four of us, plenty of room with each of us having our own bathroom and enough space overall. Thanks again! 😊

Roomy condo on La Ropa w/great views!!

We had a fantastic vacation in Zihua at Oscar's condo in Punta Marina, Playa La Ropa! The condo is very spacious, clean and conveniently located on the hillside at the south end of Playa La Ropa with FABULOUS views from the main living areas, master bedroom and two decks (one covered, one uncovered). The condo was fully furnished (including kitchen) and there was almost no one in the complex when we stayed in late November so we essentially had the pool to ourselves! Pool deck also has great views! We'll definitely go back - such a sweet deal!!!

Perfect in every way!

I recently stayed at this property with a friend and my two children (aged 5 and 7). It was absolutely ideal for us. The condo itself is incredibly spacious and well laid out with a lovely ocean breeze at night - we only used the AC once! Silvia cleans daily and replenishes towels, etc. which is a real luxury. Oscar quickly responded to every question and query and arranged for transportation for the airport. Although this isn't necessary and costs a little more than a taxi, I loved the convenience and safety for my kids as most cabs seem to lack seatbelts. There is a very quick and safe walk down to the beach from the condo and the water temperature was perfect. My kids had a ton of fun playing in the waves (which were very manageable in size). The condo pool was pretty much ours for the entire 9 days and the kids also had a ton of fun playing in this - the water is a little cooler and quite refreshing. From the base of the hill you can also catch a cab or a bus into Zihua. We loved the bus and it is super cheap and seems to leave every few minutes so we didn't ever have to wait. Zihua is fun to explore and we took in a cultural festival which happens every Sunday evening in town - entertainment, street food, ++! We thought the margaritas at Rossy's (right at the base of the hill) were the best on the beach :). We enjoyed the smoothies at Pati's (at the other end of the beach) + next door to Pati's they offered pottery painting for kids and adults - you buy a piece of pottery (very inexpensive) and then paint it yourself and they fire it and give you the completed piece the following day. The kids had a blast with this. I'm not sure if this happens every day but we did it on a Friday. A perfect vacation at a perfect property with a perfect host. We will be back!

Wonderful condo with gorgeous view

We stayed at punta marina for a week in late march- the condo was amazingly gorgeous, with plenty of room for two families. Oscar was extremely communicative, and got back to questions/ queries extremely fast. Sylvia was incredible- she cooked two incredible meals for us- definitely ask her to make you fish, and margaritas- both are to die for! The condo is on the top of a hill, split between two very different beaches- be sure to explore both of them- Los Gatos is on the left and accessible via a pathway along the rocks- when you get there- there is plenty of snorkeling, and fantastic palabras to camp out during the day- also no waves, so a great option with smaller kids. Playa ropa is on the right, and a fab beach for long walks, sandcastle building, etc... waves are no more than 3 feet high. All the palabras are also amazing, but I have to admit Los Gatos was my favorite, so make sure you don't miss it! At the bottom of the hill, you can get fresh ceviche and oysters in a makeshift area that gets set up daily- definitely worth it- you won't get fresher oysters, as they pick them that day. The stairs and walk was quite refreshing- it was really nice to get a bit more exercise than if you were on the beach and falling out of your room to the beach- I personally preferred it to the lazier beach resorts- and in the heat of the day, you can stop at the pool on the way up to your room and rinse off/cool down. Town is a long walk past the other end of playa ropa, a water taxi from Los Gatos, or a 50-70 peso cab ride from the taxi stop at the bottom of the hill. Definitely head there for a sat/Sunday night, as a festival seems to show up in the town square and is wonderful for all ages. You absolutely can't go wrong with this condo- it is really incredible. Thank you oscar and Sylvia for a wonderful vacation.

This wonderful condo was better than described and pictured. We loved the big covered terrace and enjoyed dining on the smaller terrace. The steps and the hill are worth mentioning for those who might have mobility challenges but did not create an issue for our group of 6 in our sixties and seventies.

Great stay in Zihua!

We loved our stay in Zihuatanejo. Oscar was one of the most responsive hosts I have ever encountered. The stay was easy and the condo had everything we needed. Any questions were answered very quickly and the condo had a great location - only a quick 10 minute walk to our favourite beach (La Ropa) and a quick cab ride to the Centro. We would stay again without hesitation.

Great view and spacious rooms

This is the second unit we have stayed in at Punta Marina and was even better than the first. There are 2 patios and we spent a lot of time there enjoying the morning and evening views of the bay. The living area and dining rooms are large and comfortable so we never felt crowded. The kitchen is small but had everything we needed to cook meals. The gas grill was clean and worked well. There are wall mounted air conditioners in every room but often, the breeze from the bay was sufficient for a comfortable temperature. Great location! The walk to La Ropa beach took us about 15 min and it was easy to get a cab. Oscar was very responsive to questions and requests…great communication! If you have mobility issues, please be aware that there is a very steep driveway (or alternate staircase) to go down to reach the bottom of the staircase to the unit. We arrived after dark and I have some knee issues and felt a bit unstable going down the steep drive in the dark. I would recommend this unit and would rent it again!
