We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Aura Del Mar. The hotel has many amenities and direct access to the beach. Service was great too; highly recommend!

My 9 year old son and I stayed at Aura del Mar for Spring Break 2024. While the hotel is not kid focused or running over with screaming kids, it is kid friendly. The pool area is lovely, with plenty of different lounging areas in the shade. It's a bonus that the excellent and reasonably priced Bistro Del Mar is on the beach level, as they were consistently delivering food and drinks up to guests at the pool. I considered it to be in the ideal location in Zihuatanejo, as it's a 10 minute walk north to the city center. Along the way, there are several highly regarded restaurants. Plus, Maderas right next door on the beach is also a great spot. Additionally, there are some true gem restaurants and coffee shops within several blocks of the hotel itself. In the other direction is Playa Ropa, which is a 15-20 minute walk, first uphill and then down. The cabs were 450 MXN (about $28) each way, about a 15-20 minute drive. As others have said, it's nice that there's a small convenience store across the street for room necessities. The hotel provides plenty of bottled and filtered water at no cost. We didn't have any luck being able to book any excursions ahead of time, but the concierge Carlos was able to get us set up with fishing, zip lining and the sea turtle experience. The rooms overall had everything needed - a working air conditioner, Wifi, and cable TV. We enjoyed playing cards on our balcony before heading out to dinner.

Place is the nicest we've stayed in mexico. Actually better than anything in Hawaii or the us for that matter. The best staff, Abel at the sunset bar is a gem.

The rooms are spacious. We had a beautiful view. Friendly , helpful staff. The pool area is very nice. Breakfast at the restaurant was great.

Absolutely beautiful property with friendly and engaging staff who got out of their way to make your stay pleasant. Our room was immaculately cleaned each morning with turn down service at night. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking to visit Zihua.

The nighttime view from the room's balcony is incredible! Comfortable beds and excellent staff.

Charming, clean, wonderful pool area, comfy bed, strong AC, and thoughtful touches everywhere. Highly recommend!

This is a beautiful property with all the greenery and flowers and great views. We enjoyed the Macaws, turtles, and even a huge iguana. Everyone is so friendly and helpful! We couldn't have asked for a better location as you can walk to everything. I booked rather late so most of the rooms were sold out, so we got a bottom room in the corner. Next time, I will book earlier and get a room a couple of floors up.
