ABOUT OUR ZIHUATANEJO HOTEL /B&B
We are a small 5 unit Zihuatanejo hotel /bed and breakfast located above one of the best beaches in the area and only a ten minute walk away, Playa La Ropa. Each room has a gorgeous view of the ocean and bay from a private terrace. Inside the beautifully decorated rooms we have air conditioning, luxurious mattresses, free WIFI, internet connected televisions, small refrigerators and filtered water . The infinity pool on the roof has a spectacular view of the surrounding hills and the ocean while also ensuring privacy and security for our guests.
Zihuatanejo (meaning place of women) has a rich pre-Columbian history that has been rooted in its place by the warm waters of the Pacific ocean. The breakwater at Las Gatas beach is believed to have been created by an ancient Purepecha king who wanted a calm beach to escape to from the cold winters. Zihuatanejo today continues to be a beach town that offers people a place to escape from cold weather or busy cityscapes. With the bay offering shelter from the open ocean one can experience calm and warm waters year around.
It is our philosophy that a Zihuatanejo hotel /B&B should honor and help protect the environment in which it is built. We have attempted to accomplish this in many ways. The first is that we designed the layout of the buildings to be built around the trees that were already on the property. We also made sure that we would have space to install solar panels and solar water heaters so as to limit our dependence on electricity made from harmful fossil fuels. Additionally, we have integrated rainwater management and collection into the structures and implemented strategies for using grey water. Finally we are committed to minimizing waste creation and recycling programs. It is our hope that we are creating a space that allows people to come and relax while limiting their impact on the local environment.
Jesus and I opened our Zihuatanejo hotel /B&B as part of our dream to live together despite the wall between our two countries (U.S. and Mexico). Our goal is to make our guests feel at home in a private getaway. We will offer you unique insights into Zihuatanejo's sights and activities that perhaps many other places may not. We live on the property with our 3 dogs (Layla, Orion and Kayla) and offer a pet friendly option for your furry family members as well. As gay owners, we also want to operate a place that LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Trangender, and Queer)people and their allies can come and feel 100% welcome and relaxed. For us that means creating a safe and comfortable environment at our B&B and also helping you find the businesses and locations that are supportive as well. We think you will enjoy your stay with us as many already have.
