Book a hotel near La Madera Beach, Playa la Madera

"A Wonderful Birthday Getaway! We had an amazing stay during our ladies trip to celebrate my birthday. I came with my 87-year-old grandmother and my mom, and we stayed in Room 101, which had a fantastic view of Zihuatanejo Bay. The room was comfortable, and the AC worked so well we actually had to turn it off—it got that cold! Guadalupe was always around, making sure everything was running smoothly, which we really appreciated. Christiano, Jessica, and Juanita took great care of us during breakfast. Their warm and friendly service made our stay even more special. We booked the breakfast package and loved the variety it offered each morning. The pool was very clean and relaxing, and the views from both the pool and our room were absolutely breathtaking. We also tried the massages they offer—so worth it! Great service at a very reasonable price. The walk to Playa Madera from the hotel is really nice too, offering easy beach access and more beautiful views along the way. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic, and welcoming getaway. We’ll definitely be back!"

"It was clean, quiet, safe, the staff was excellent and the resort was beautiful. We would definitely go back to it again!! "

"Some of the nicest staff I have ever met. The manager Ricardo and Frances were excellent. All the waiters were very friendly and accommodating. Great location and very quiet "

"This is our third stay over about twenty years at Aura del Mar. This place is heaven. The staff is excellent; the grounds are stunning. If you love Mexican art/architecture/colors, this place is for you. The rooms all face the sea and the views are magical. The staff hooks you up with reservations at the good restaurants, and there’s a taxi stand at the bottom of the hill so taxies are there within 2-3 minutes, ready to whisk you around the bay. The beach is calm and the sand is lovely. We usually go to Sayulita, which we’ve loved for many years, but now stay away during Christmas and Spring break because it’s packed. Zihuatenejo beach is super uncrowded, even on Spring break week. Give this place a try—if you like old school Mexican charm, you won’t be disappointed. "

"This is a friendly hotel and community. A great view and we chose to walk everywhere. "

"Everything was excellent. We will be back for our 6th year in 2026. Counting the days!"
