While resorts continue to spring up, "Zihua" remains determined to maintain its small-town flavor. The brick-paved "fisherman's walk," a nod to the region's seafaring roots, stretches along the town center. Because the nightlife is mostly informal, Zihua is particularly appealing to couples and those seeking an escape from coastal party towns.

Reviewed By archibaldaI can't think of a better place to relax with or without friends and family. The beach is completely unspoilt, the landscaping and pool areas gorgeous and the bungalows well-equipped, comfortable and attractive. Although there is a kitchen, you probably won't want to use it as the restaurant is excellent.

Pros and cons
Reviewed By Iona cPros- Clean rooms, quiet as the ocean blocks out noises. We would stay again. Staff keep the outside well groomed. They were all very friendly. Cons. Booked this hotel in early March on their website for May. I called in April directly to the hotel to confirm as the website said you will not get an email. Reservations said your card was declined which is not possible which I told her that she said "you cancelled your reservation"- I did not. Rebooked again at $30 higher a night which was frustrating, she confirmed a ground floor king and an email would be sent but nothing came. On arrival the driveway entrance was blocked by a chain, our taxi driver honked for the young man sitting outside on his cell and he just looked at us. 2 people in the office did the same. We got out of the cab on the street and our driver put one suitcase over the chain and he undid it so we pulled our other two bags onto property with 3 staff just watching. There were no apologies and the driver had to drive in and back out as a chain was still across the exit. We went to check in and lo and behold no ground floor room and the price had gone up again. Asked to talk to manager and of course not one available. Took 2 complaints for front desk to send some up to clear the shower drain, ankle deep. The restaurant food was not the best but Las Adelitas, a short walk across the street from Jungle pizza. Both are two of our favorite places to eat. We tried one sip of a pina colada and that was just about the worst sugar filled cool-aid I've ever had. We paid and left. Doesn't the management understand if you have good food and drinks vacationers will stay at the hotel and spend their money, especially with being right on the beach.

Spectacular sunsets are seen from the comfort of your hammock.
New Improvements
Reviewed By mogcambomamaMade a lot of improvements since last year. Great beach service by Memo. He was always checking in with us to see if we needed food or drinks. This is a vast improvement from past years when you had to go to the bar to order anything. Lunch on the beach, chicken quesadillas with beans and guacamole for 105 pesos was enough for both of us. We only had one breakfast and one dinner at their restaurant. Fabulous views from there. Breakfast seems to be their best meal served. Dinner, enchiladas were OK but husband stuffed chicken breast was very good. Great Happy Hour 6-8 at the Sunset Bar, service by Hector was great. We stayed in a Playa Suite just above the beach and 50 steps down to the palapa beach.

3.5 based on 104 reviews
Hotel Villas Miramar is a small boutique hotel perfect for families and/or couples. It is located in La Madera Beach zone at Zihuatanejo, which makes it easy to walk through the main beaches or downtown.
Disappointed...theft & kitchen was run down.
Reviewed By smericksonKitchen in our suite is getting very run down and all appliances were dirty & rusty and there was a shortage of all utensils. The cleaning lady had stolen from me and I found her holding my wallet which had been well hidden, triple zipped in my suit case in the back of the closet, all in a matter of minutes of leaving the room. Frustrating to get accountability from management when it was reported. Over the following days we learned theft had happened to others in the hotel in the previous few days and in the prior months and nothing had been done about it. Overall staff are friendly and helpful, they've repainted the outside and the location is good.
