This is almost as enchanting as any of Zihua's luxury hotels at a price that won't haunt you when you get home. Rooms and services are comfortable, not extravagant, but are presented with delightful touches at every turn. And there are many turns in the property's intricate layout, from the lobby's stone floor and wicker ceiling to the staircases that wander the lush cliff-side grounds to the beach, restaurant, pool, or your quarters. Rooms have Talavera-ceramic sinks in wooden surrounds, carved doors and furnishings from Michoacán, molded plastic bathtubs, and large balconies with hammocks; most have fabulous bay views. Situated on the beach, the stone-and-concrete-floored Bistro del Mar ($-$$$) offers simple decor, delicious Mediterranean food, a wonderful view, and a welcome breeze.

We liked this place. Our first room was too small (3 year old in tow). We upgraded to a suite that was perfect. Big enough, without being too much. Loved the outdoor room (except the bats that lived there at night). Service was good and beach was nice and secluded.
