Another wonderful stay

We have stayed at Jacks condo many times and is a home away from home for us in Zihua. Comfortable beds, great furnishings and very convenient to the beach, restaurants and bus route or taxis if you want to go into town. Also cannot beat the view. We loved having coffee and cocktails on the balcony overlooking the bay. It would be nice if the condo concierge would actually be physically available with office hours posted, even if for a limited time. Also, kudos to the guards who became our “new friends” calling for taxis and giving us much needed information on Zihua and the local area. Thank you Jack!

2nd Stay

Zihuat is lovely, quiet, chill place to vacation. The views from condo are priceless. Jack is an amazing host. All staff (dulce, rosalinda, jose (sorry if I remembered name wrong...the young man who waters the plants) and all the security staff)) are friendly and professional. We enjoyed our 2 week stay. Thanks.

Our new home away from home

Zihua is a beautiful little fishing village, La Ropa is the premier beach and Casa Vista Grande is a gorgeous home! Every photo you see in the listing is EXACTLY what you get. Very spacious (no crowding each other) with spectacular views of the bay. It has a FULLY equipped kitchen that I wish I had in my own home. This isn't a pared down version of anything. We have stayed in 2022 and 2023 with friends and have tried both beds. Both are comfortable so no worries about who gets the "good" bed. Although the master bedroom is larger and has its own deck and ensuite, we found the 2nd bedroom very comfortable. The 2nd bathroom makes it perfect for sharing with friends. Dulce (Concierge) is there to help with anything you need to make your stay memorable, and Rosalinda keeps the condo spotless and fresh. Be sure to chat with the guards on your way to and from the condo. They are so friendly and we had many laughs with them. My friend asked one of them to help her practice her Spanish so every time we passed him she got a mini- lesson. And the 2 infinity pools... the perfect way to cool off during those reliably hot days and balmy nights. We were there in April and there were always lounge chairs availablle. There's a very good reason it's hard to find a date that isn't already booked. This is the best deal you'll find for a luxury condo in Zihua...... book it before your preferred date is taken. Thank you so much Jack, we will be back for sure.

Everyone should run their rental like this

Loved this place, much better than the high rise condos we have stayed at in Ixtapa. Jack does not cheap out, you have everything you need for the entire stay. There is no need to go the the store for any supplies. It’s nice that a maid comes in twice a week for a cleaning and there is an on-site concierge if you need anything else. Perfect view, far enough away for a quite nights sleep while still being close to town.

Un autre beau voyage à Zihua

Spacieux condo avec toutes les commodités. Propreté du condo et du site irréprochable. Bien situé par rapport à la plage et au Centro de Zihua. Dans les dernières années, Zihua s'est refait une beauté et c'est très propre. Pour personne en bonne condition physique car plusieurs côtes à monter. Merci à Jack et Dulce.

Lovely condo

We loved this condo, it was everything that we were hoping for. Beautiful views, gorgeous pools and very close to La Ropa beach. The condo was spacious and had everything that we needed. 5 minute walk to the beach and 20 minute walk to town. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect Zihuatenejo vacation

Awesome location with the amazing views and beautiful infinity pools. Peaceful and quiet resort. Jack is extremely helpful and responsive as was Dulce, the Concierge. She helped with all our planning needs. Overall one of the best vacation experiences in Mexico. My husband and I have been there 3 times and always stay in Jack's condo. Highly recommend!

Beautiful property.

The property is clean and has everything you need. The view is outstanding. If you are in decent condition you can do the walk to and from the beach or town, Cabs are easy to get, just ask Dulce or the guard and they will call one for you. The owner Jack is always available if you have questions but we mostly talked with the concierge ( Dulce) for info. My wife and I highly recommend this property. Dont miss out on the garlic Octopus at La Perla, rent an umbrella on the beach for 200 paso and enjoy the day. Dont forget the massage for 300 paso as well. Enjoy.

Early to Rise

The condo is beautiful and very comfortable. I had reserved for a week, but left after the second night. Unfortunately there was construction going on right next to this condo, jackhammering starting at around 8 a.m.. Jack had informed me that there was some construction going on the night before I was travelling, so I didn't feel that I had enough time to look into other options and decided to stick with the plan in hopes that it wouldn't be too loud. That wasn't the case I contacted Jack, as well as the property manager (who said that there was no noise next to the pool, so I should go to the pool). Jack was very helpful and swiftly got my money refunded. We moved to Villa Mexicana on the beach. La Ropa beach is very beautiful. Once the construction has finished, I would recommend this condo for someone wanting a place for an extended stay. It is a steep hike up and down, so only for the able bodied. As I was only there for a week, I was much happier staying right on the beach.

Amazing Stay...

This property was STUNNING! The condo had everything we needed and more for a very comfortable stay. The location was excellent for easy access to the beach and places to eat. Be aware that the condo is situated on a hill so be prepared for a steep walk or just take a inexpensive cab ride back and forth. Jack was very responsive and gave detailed instructions and suggestions. All in all it was an excellent vacation. We were very sad to leave and hope to return again soon to this lovely property.

Perfect!!

We absolutely loved our week in Zihua. This condo is truly special - a peaceful area, we felt safe, and Dulce the concierge took care of calling taxis for us, and we spent many a hot afternoon lounging indoors enjoying the lovely view. By day 5, I was looking at availability to book our next trip. We walked to the beach and to town and loved meeting the people of Zihuatanejo. We loved having our own space, the infinity pool, the proximity to Playa la Ropa, and the comfortable furniture. If you’re debating this place - just do it!!! Such a wonderful wonderful time.

Simply Wonderful!!!

We stayed in Jack's lovely Casa Vista Grande condo for 7 nights later part of February. As all other reviews mention, the views from this condo are outstanding, great amenities in the condo, comfortable bed and nice kitchen to do some cooking. Also utilized the washer & dryer, worked great. Very, very quiet, everyone around us and the complex itself. There is the main road very nearby, but didn't create a lot of noise. The grounds around the complex and pools, lovely, lovely, very well maintained. Speaking of pool, we loved, loved, LOVED the larger infinity edge pool We were there every day and was never crowded...still dreaming of that pool! Great location, just 5 minute walk down to La Ropa beach (fantastic beach) and within walking distance to many other restaurants as well. We loved the walking up and down hill, but could easily be a problem with people with mobility issues, but we also on occasion took taxis up the hill to get back to condo after a long day out. Taxis very cheap and easy to get one. Dealing with Jack was a pleasure, and he answered all my questions promptly. Shout out to Antonio, on-site Concierge, he picked us up from the airport and he also pre-stocked the condo with grocery items for us, as well as helping make a few reservations here and there and calling us some taxis at night. Was a pleasure dealing with him and felt like we made a good friend by the time we left. A+ to Antonio!! We would rent Casa Vista Grande again in a heartbeat, thanks so much Jack for sharing your piece of paradise with us!!!! Kind Regards, Laurie & Steve Belmont

STELLAR!!!

This will be the 20th 5-STAR Rating for CASA VISTA GRANDE. We echo all the positive comments about Jack, the condo, the complex, the neighbours, the staff, the view and the location. My husband and I stayed for 16 days in December. Our first time to Zihuat and 1st time in condo vs 16 times in all inclusive resorts throughout mexico. I said, 'I don't want to cook and do laundry while on vacation' LOL..but I LOVED having daily access to laundry and to a full kitchen..it made our vacation. Dinners out of course and a couple of nights ordering pizza in, but nice to be able to fix a snack or make some nachos without having to go out. One night we had neighbours over for appies and bevies and another night we went to their place. Wouldn't do that in a hotel room. A couple of nights we even watched Netflix (nice touch to have access to movies if want a quiet night to relax). Jack, Antonio and Rosalinda with a shout out to Eli...we thank you all for our wonderful, memorable vacation and can't wait to see you again SOON. Hasta Luego. (Sherry and Donovan)

Million Dollar Views

This property is absolutely beautiful the pictures really don't do it justice. We stayed here for a short 5 day trip and were so sad to leave. Tons of space with an amazing view. It was so lovely waking up each morning and being met with the beautiful view in the master bedroom. The grounds were amazing too. So much little detail that really made this place wonderful, including 2 infinity pools (maybe not such a little detail). It was very clean and had a cleaning lady come daily. Jack was awesome, provided us with really great information about the town as well as the rental. The rental is only a 5 minute walk to the beach which has great restaurants, bars, and watersports. You can also walk to town which is only 25/30 minute walking distance. We loved this property and will definitely recommend this beautiful place to our friends and family. We even looked at posted properties on this grounds because we are so convinced we want to move there! Thank you Jack! we had a wonderful time.

Family Vacation - Unbelievable Experiences!

My family absolutely loved staying here. 10 days over Christmas with two teenagers was very comfortable for us. The en-suite bathroom is a nice added touch for the master bedroom. Well laid out condo. Air Conditioner was appreciated as we are not used to the humidity! The view from the condo is very breathtaking! Every morning we would sit on the deck to read and enjoy the view. Grounds are well maintained and very lush! We made use of the well stocked kitchen. Appreciated the water filtration system, filled up water bottles for the days activities. The affinity pools had umbrellas and chairs and had an amazing view of the bay. Books available to read and return. Our kids appreciated Wi-Fi and Internet access as did we, to wish our families a Merry Christmas! Location is as advertised. 10 minutes to the beach and a short cab ride to the center of Zihu! Eliezer, was in charge of guest services and was helpful with any questions we had. Great customer service! Our highlight was watching the sea turtles hatch and we had the opportunity to release them out to the ocean. Unbelievable! My husband and I took a cooking class with Monica (patio mexica.com to book in advance). She toured us to the markets (fresh fish, beef, vegetables, fruit, bread and spices) and gave us tips on what to buy. We prepared our own salsa and learned how to prepare an authentic Mexican meal. Wonderful experience! Our family is very active! Here is a few of our highlights: Kayaked at Barra de Potosi, Snorkeled at Las Gatas and Ixtapa Island. Fishing with "Moses" and the fish that we caught were then prepared for a fresh lunch. Zip-lined at Ixtapa. Sunset cruise on the Picante. Parasailed, Jet-skied, and rode the waves on La Ropa Beach. Restaurants we loved: Il Mare, Elvira's, La Vita e' Bella (spinach ravioli) La Pearla, Jungle Pizza, and Bandidos (has TSN sports). As I mentioned, accommodations were perfect for our family. Communication with condo owner was via e-mail with easy payment transactions. On our next trip to Zihu, this condo will be our first choice! Thank-You Jack!

Outstanding

I LOVED staying here -- both the condo and the location. The condo grounds were stunning and very well maintained, and the on-site security and grounds staff were incredibly friendly; I felt safe and secure the entire month I stayed here. The condo had everything we needed, and was very well maintained. Really appreciated the water filtration system installed, allowing me to drink tap water without worry. Jack checked in a few times over the month via email to make sure I was satisfied, serviced and everything about our stay was going well there. iPhone Home speaker too. Location is great -- about a mile walk to town, about 1/4 mi down to Playa de Ropa, complete with a stunning view of the Pacific Ocean from the condo. It is very hilly, which I happen to love. Great exercise. If you don't like walking the hill, there are many options from bus to frequent taxis (seemed like a taxi passed every 1-2 minutes). Activity-wise -- the sunset cruise for $60 USD on the catamaran Picante was well worth it-- great captain, staff, small dinner and cocktails were great too. Not nearly as touristy of an activity as I expected. Make reservations to ensure they are running that night (they must at least have 30+ signed up). I also kayaked through mangroves near the airport, at Barra de Potosi. You can take the bus on the highway, tell the driver you are going to Barra de Potosi. they'll drop you on the side of the road you need to take where you'll catch a more informal "taxi" (back of pickup truck) to the end of the road (several miles). You can also take a cab for about $30-$40 USD. You'll find a 2x2 block village followed by 4-6 beach huts at the end of the road that are restaurants/kayak rental places. Most kayak rentals are run by Spanish speaking only owners/families. Rent from them. I did not kayak with a guide, but am a sea kayaker so know what I'm doing w equipment. I went with a local woman from Zihuatenejo that I met, who knew where to go. Stay along the shoreline, taking you past mangroves & eventually "entrances" into more mangroves (almost like a maze; there's really only one way in/out so you dont get lost). Unbelievable birds -- rosetta spoonbills, egrets, white pelicans, cranes, herons -- everywhere!!!! super cool. went twice. Other notable: Cooking School by Monica. $35 USD. Book in advance. Worth it. Walking to town, its about 1/6 mi past Hotel Irma, down the hill a bit on right. Sign out front at her restaurant, Patio Mexicana.

Rented Jack's 2 bedroom condo Oct 12 - Oct 26. 2013

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay. We found the condo to be everyting it was advertised to be plus some. The beach at Playa La Ropa was great and we spent lots of time under the umbrellas at La Perla. we celebrated my wife's 75th birthday a Kau Kan and the meal was great. We loved Banditos and had a ball at La Papa Loca. The bottom line is that we had a wonderful time and recommend the Condo to everyone.

About the host

Hosted by Jack

We found Zihuatanejo about 30 years ago. At first we stayed in Hotels but became so completely entranced with the area we had to buy a condo to be able to spend more time there each year. The complex and our condo reflects our love of peace and tranquility.

Why they chose this property

Zihuatanejo is a real, live, working Mexican fishing village. Our wonderful Mexican neighbors are just that, our neighbors and Friends. We always feel welcome and part of the Zihua. family when we are there. Having traveled much of the world I must say that Zihua. is very special and inviting to guests.
