Best place to stay. Steps from the beach. All staff great. Good restaurant on premise. Kitchens we use for buying fresh fish right at the pier. Good Mercado in town, or go to Soriana supermarket. Good beaches, local cabs are less than $5.

Very nice property on Beautiful Madera Beach.
Great location for walking the boardwalk into downtown Zihuatanejo and surrounded with numerous places to dine.
Property was very clean and well maintained.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful.
The only thing to note for people with mobility issues is all the stairs from street level to beach level to all the suites.
Love the location. Unfortunately, we had a couple of noisy neighbors a couple of nights. They do need to replace the mattress.

Walkable to everything
Clean, comfortable and good location. Easy walk to el centro and the malecon. Only downside was it could be noisy at times (this is a busy area). We would stay again for the convenience of the location.

Great location. At the top of a hill with an amazing view of a beautiful bay. There was a lovely infinity pool with plenty of seating options or you could swim in Madera Bay. The onsite restaurant served above average food. The service was great and everyone very friendly, always wanting to help.

We had a great stay, room was comfortable. Great location, walkable to the malecon / centro. awesome staff; very pleasant & helpful, especially Ricardo. Restaurant was convenient, though lacked in service for our experience. There's lots of stairs, so the constant up n' down can take a toll. Overall, we do recommend this hotel and would return.

Great Location
Great location on La Madera Beach and easy access to the centre. The pool was wonderful overlooking the beach. Many restaurants in the area. Units had a full kitchen. Internet was excellent.
It was a wonderful place but does have many steps.
