Zihuatanejo Hotel Guide - Playa Contramar hotels in Zihuatanejo, Mexico.

"An amazing property and staff"

"The food is mediocre, at best -for really good food you have to go to Zijhauteneo - but the rooms and huge balconies all looking out over the ocean are wonderful and the location is spectacular. The only downside is there are a lot of steps and uneven surfaces, so it can be challenging for people with bad knees or balance issues."

"We had a beautiful room with a great view! Every single staff member was wonderful and so caring. Can’t wait to go back. "

"Very nice"

"My stay at Ixic was sweet and comfortable. As a woman traveling alone, I felt safe and cared for. The room was spotless and air conditioned. The shower had great pressure and hot water. The amenities are simple so bring your own shampoos if you are needing something special. There are many stores and a market in the area. The hotel is about 10 minutes from the beach in the center of town. "

"A comfortable, clean hotel in an ideal location. The service, the grounds and the restaurant were all top notch. We will return!"

"Everything from the customer service, location, views, and hotel itself, was perfect. "

"I really enjoyed the property as it was really close to the beach in the bars. Great location."

"The townhouse is much bigger than we expected. We loved sitting out on the deck, grilling our fresh seafood, and swimming in the pool. There are a lot of steps to climb, so be sure to prepare yourself for that. I think I counted around 150 steps from the road up to the unit. It's a lot if you aren't used to the heat and humidity! We climbed them a lot because we walked to town a couple of times a day. Town is just a 10-15 minute walk. There are a few restaurants near the bottom of the steps that are just wonderful. And the coffee shop at the top of the stairs is fabulous and convenient. We visited the nearby Worldmark for breakfast a couple of times and cannot recommend them enough. Great prices, delicious food, and outstanding service.The air conditioning kept the bedrooms cool and minimized any outside noise (mostly some loud birds or a barking dog). The rest of the townhouse is not air conditioned, but that didn't bother us at all, and we were mostly outside on the deck. The pool is so wonderful. We used it every day. It's shared with one neighboring townhouse, and the people there were terrific. We hardly saw them, but when they were there, we enjoyed talking with them. We couldn't figure out the many non-working switches for fans and lights. But, otherwise, the place worked out well for us. We will not soon forget watching the sun rise over the bay while we drank our coffees on the deck. Highly recommended!"
