Roomy Condo w/2 Pools/Madera Area/NO Car Needed to Beaches,Rstrnts & Shops/HSI50

Casa Almendro is located in the lushly landscaped gated and very secure complex of La Ceiba Suites in the Playa Madera district. La Ceiba Suites complex is conveniently and centrally located close to the town center of Zihuatanejo so no car is necessary as you are just steps away from all amenities. Despite being so close to town it is an amazingly private and quiet location. Within short walking distance from the condo there are too numerous to count delicious restaurants serving a broad range of tastes and prices, shopping and entertainment. If needed, taxis and buses are available to you just outside of La Ceiba Suites doors for just a few pesos. Playa Madera beach is an easy short 0.2 mile 5 minute walk from the condo and Playa La Ropa is an approximate 15 minute walk or 5 minute bus/taxi ride.

Wonderful!

The unit was so lovely, Vanessa was so helpful and friendly, and we just had a wonderful stay. The bed was very comfortable in the air conditioned bedroom, which made for a very restful sleep. The location is perfect with coffee and restaurants just around the corner. We will definitely be returning.

Excellent communication with host. Very good location with easy access to everything. Place very clean. Note AC only in bedroom. Highly recommend it but be aware if weather is very hot the apartment will be very hot as well. I would definitely stay at this place again but not in the peak of summer.

Shelley’s place is wonderful! Clean and comfortable in the heart of the Madera district. Just a few blocks from the beach. Amazing restaurants around every corner of the La Ceiba complex. Shelley was very helpful before and during our stay. She gave excellent recommendations for a variety of attractions. Her property manager, Vanessa, was attentive and willing to assist us at a moments notice. We would love to return for a future vacation! Shelley’s place is highly recommended!

Nice condo in a handy location close to town, although a little noisey. Mexicans love their celebrations! The open air living was great, and the two pools were a welcome relief from the Zihuatanejo heat.

Comfy oasis in great location !

From the very beginning the communication with the owners and the reception from the manager upon arrival was excellent. This place is very private, secure and in an excellent location close to the beach, shopping, restaurants and the taxis are directly across the street. Perfect for 2 people in a tropical setting with 2 nice pools. Completly equipped, including a nice Bose bluetooth stereo. Ive been to Zihua many times and i give this place 2 thumbs up recommendation !

Amazing condo in a great complex

We absolutely loved Shelley's condo. It is spacious and very well equipped and it is obvious that the owners have put a lot of time into decorating and maintaining it. The condo is located in the Playa Madera area and it is within easy walking distance of shops, town, the beach and numerous restaurants. The complex is beautiful with 2 swimming pools and lots of chairs and loungers. We will be back for sure and we highly recommend this rental.

Love the location, very close to everything.

The only downside was that they were working on a roof right outside The unit. It wasn’t full-time but a little distractive, and not very private at that time.

We loved the place, very comfy, beautiful gardens and great pool.

Absolutely perfect location, friendly residents & staff. Great neighborhood. Liked the open air feel. The ninja professional blender was terrific and we had many delicious fresh fruit smoothies. Only glitch was the bedroom toilet which was running. Needs to be fixed. We ran out of water once because if it. We would definitely stay again & recommend to others.

Wonderful location and accomodations for a quiet getaway.

Have returned to Zihuatanejo for many years now but this was my first stay at this wonderful spacious one bedroom condo. The condo and it's grounds are well kept, quiet and wonderfully situated close to the beach, downtown and everything that you would need for a relaxing vacation. Both Playa Madera and LaRopa is only minutes from the complex. The condo is extremely roomy, comfortable and hasd everything that you need to cook your meals if you want to stay in but as close as you are to downtown and the endless number of local fantastic eateries the short walk is easy. I would recommend this condo to any single or couple that wants to relax and enjoy this wonderful setting. I would definitely recommend Casa Almendra. Thanks for a wonderful 2 weeks.

Absolute paradise!

What a wonderful condo at a beautiful price! We cannot recommend this highly enough! Very close to restaurants, the beach, and shopping in a safe and secure complex within a great neighborhood. The condo was exquisitly decorated and extremely clean. The owners have provided many extras to make their unit more comfortable. The management and maintenance people couldn’t be more helpful and we also appreciated two pools for when we wanted time in the adult pool. We will be back and truly appreciate the helpfulness of the owner regarding our questions when booking travel. This is for sure a five-star condominium !

Wonderful complex, spacious unit!

My husband and I stayed at this great condo for a full week and didn't want to go home! LaCeiba Suites is about a three minute walk to the beach and to the shops...we felt welcome by the superior staff and met some really nice people staying there as well. Each morning we enjoyed our coffee on the balcony overlooking the pool. Everyday, we swam in one of the two pools and enjoyed the wonderful, tropical feel of the well manicured grounds. In the evening, we walked to the beach and sampled the delicious seafood restaurants as we watched the sunset. Zihuatenejo has a very welcoming feeling, our vacation was very special because our stay at this clean and well maintained condo was such a great experience. We will definitely be back!

Paradise

Casa Almendro quickly became our home away from home! Meeting Shelly the owner, upon our arrival, made us feel so welcome! The pools, tropical plantation, staff and friendly neighbours make this a very desirable location. The condo is spacious, clean and very beautifully decorated. Shelly and Don have paid great attention to details to every part of the unit. We loved the two open spaces and enjoyed many game nights out there. And the cozy King bed always felt so comfortable after our days in the warm sun! A perfect location for shopping, beaches and eating out! Great selection of restaurants near by. A real gem of a place to enjoy all the wonderful things Zihuatanejo has to offer. Pure Paradise! Looking forward to returning soon! Gracias!

Fantastic!!

We just returned from a fantastic 3 week stay at Casa Almendro. We are so in love with the convenient location of this condo in the Madera area. No taxi needed as we could walk to our destinations but taxis were plentiful if needed. It is always a delight to reunite with good friends we have met over the years while coming down to Zihuatanejo. We had numerous delicious meals, several just within a couple minutes walk from the condo. Highlights for us are the abundant fresh fruits, vegetables and seafood. The dorado was on while we were there which is one of our favorite meals grilled simply with garlic. Vanessa, Casa Almendro Manager, is a gem and always helpful and responsive when anything was needed. Great vacation destination!

A great place for a relaxing stay!

We were very pleased with our choice of stay. Shelley, our host contacted us and gave helpful information. The condo was perfect for two. Vanessa, who met us at the front was a great help and tour guide. For people who have not been to Zihuataneja, this is a great place to stay. Others you meet in the complex give great tips for food, shopping etc. There is a notebook that Shelley and Don put together with maps that help and give suggestions on what to do and see. It was great to have the pool at the bottom of the stairs. I used this frequently to relax and stay cool. The balcony was a great place to hang and enjoy just being there. We did some exploring but mostly just relaxed and got the much needed break. This was just the place to do it.

Lovely condo in a very pretty complex within walking distance to beaches, restaurants and shops

We had a wonderful relaxing week at Casa Almendro at Ceiba Suites. The condo is very comfortable with inviting balconies where you can relax and read or just listen to the birds and enjoy the tropical plants surrounding the two lovely pools. With shops, restaurants, and beaches so close we were able walk everywhere. We only took a cab once and that was to La Perla restaurant on Playa La Ropa. There we spent the day under a palapa reading, having refreshments and food, enjoying the ocean breezes, and watching the friendly local families having a great time. Shelley is very easy to work with and very responsive to our enquiries. Vanessa, the property manager, is so sweet and helpful. We really enjoyed Zihuatanejo, more than other Mexican vacation spots that we have visited, and Ceiba Suites is the nicest place that we have stayed at in Mexico. This was our first time in Zihua and would love to come back and stay longer. Thank you for making our first visit so restful.

Casa Almendro was our holiday haven for 3 wonderful weeks during the May off season.The VRBO descriptions and reviews of this unit are all exactly as stated.The location is so ideal for everything from beaches ,grocery shopping, restaurants ,markets,the town basketball court etc.,all easy walks.We were able to work out at a nearby gym for only $20 /month.The weather was great ,although quite humid,luckily the bedroom had A/C for easier sleeping. The complex having 2 pools is nice,though during our stay ,we were basically the only people using them.We appreciated the very well stocked kitchen,the open spacious plan of the unit ,as well as all the bedroom storage and the in unit safe.Dealing with Shelley the owner ,and Vanessa,her on site manager and the La Cieba staff,was easy and professional .In all this was a wonderful holiday experience for us .

Second visit as great as the first!

This is a perfect unit for two people. It is clean, spacious, private (second floor corner unit) and well-equipped. The grounds are lush and well-maintained, and it is within walking distance to many restaurants and the downtown. La Ropa Beach is a short bus or taxi ride away, and it is a beautiful place to spend time relaxing, walking or enjoying the surf. This was our second stay at La Cieba, and we enjoyed it as much as the first. It is a hidden gem and worth considering if you are looking for a truly Mexican holiday. The people who live in Zihuatanejo are extremely friendly and helpful, but brush up on your Spanish if you want to make your stay even more enjoyable. Last year our visit coincided with Easter and the city was pretty crowded with families on holiday. This year we arrived before Easter, and the city and beaches were fairly deserted until Palm Sunday. Shelley is great to work with; she responds promptly throughout the rental process. Everything is right about this place including the price!

A wonderful unit with a great location

Casa Almendro is a large comfortable 1 bedroom unit in a superb central location in Zihua. It's a gated complex with 2 clean refreshing pools, a welcome benefit to cool after a day in the heat. If you are into Mexican adventures, seeking out local culture and food, then this will be a perfect unit for you to consider. Close to Playa Madera (10 minute walk), Centro (15 minutes), the open air market at Solidaridad (5 Minutes), and a Soriana Mega store (15 minutes). As well, and conveniently, there is a taxi stand right outside the main gate to get you to other destinations inexpensively. We used taxis to visit friends in Playa La Ropa on multiple occasions. a good selection of local restaurants are close, safe and entertaining. We recommend Rufo's right around the corner. Lastly, the owner Shelly's Mexican manager, Vanessa, is lovely to deal with and speaks fluent English. We had a minor problem with ants, and Vanessa's team were knocking on our door the next morning to do a thorough clean and manage the issue. Zihuatenejo is an adventure, and we'll be back to stay in this unit again. R & C. Note - Casa Almendro is on the 2nd floor without an elevator. Just a heads up for those with mobility issues.
