What a pity ! The website, the location, the view, the deck and the hummingbirds were all very impressive. It really is beautifully located above the Playa Madera. Unfortunately there it stopped. The reality was truly horrific, and we know because we mistakenly set out to clean the pigsty in which we had found ourselves. We had arrived late at... More

I thought the web site looked good too. I only wished I had read some of these reviews before I went. Marsha the owner wanted me to pay the entire amount to her B of A account. Fortunately, I only paid for two nights...$100.00 each. We got there late and tired...couldn't stand the filthy, run down place. The refridgerator was... More

We booked this place because it had a nice website, but we were sadly disppointed to see how run down it was after we checked in. Our pillows were gray, there was a rotting egg carton cushion on our bed, and ants all over the place. The first day we had to ask the maid three times to clean our... More

This was probably a pretty nice place at one time, like when Cortez was there. Its a two-bit hotel with a million-dollar view. The rooms are old and run down. Ours had a kitchen, but the stove didn't work and the coffee pot was parts from three different coffee makers, none of which added to one usable machine. Its obvious... More

This place is dirty and dingy and old. It’s the kind of place where everything is so dirty that you’re afraid to touch anything. My arrival was a joke. I was not greeted by the innkeeper, Anita (I have never NOT been greeted by an innkeeper before). No "hi," "hello," "glad to meet you"...nothing. She screamed down something in Spanish,... More

The Bungalows Pacifico was just what we were looking for. My friend and I treated ourselves to a week in Zihuatanejo, leaving our children with our husbands so we could spend a week relaxing in the sun. We found Bungalows Pacificos by cross-referencing internet reviews and guidebook suggestions. It was the perfect place for us. Why? First, it was on... More

Is it any wonder there are no room photos of this low budget hotel but priced higher than better hotels in the area? The hotel has had no updates for over 30 years and it shows. Cracked tiles everywhere, stained beds with egg carton foam mattresses to fluff things up. The bathroom tiles were chipped and missing and it was... More

We planned to stay at this place for three days during our stay in Zihua. We had read a good review of it in Lonely Planet. Also, to our pleasant surprise, it was mentioned positively in an article in the in-flight magazine that we read on our way down to Mexico. Also, as you see there are other positive reviews... More

We chose to stay with Anita Hafner in her hillside "bungalows" because of rave reviews we read on this Web site. It proved to be a good choice. Reasonably priced, easy walk into town (there are steps or hill, realize), and so "private." Great view, nice breeze (when it's up) on covered veranda. Not modern or newly furnished, but "real."...
