This beautiful little condo is exactly as pictured and described, lovely, what more can we say... We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week Christmas/ New Year's vacation in Zihuatenejo/ Casa Margarita - our hosts Peter and Carol met us at the airport and made sure we settled in comfortably. The neighbors are great and the neighborhood ideally situated - we could walk virtually everywhere we wanted to go - many charming restaurants around the corner on Gourmet Alley, a block from the beach and a short, pleasant walk into the Centro. We will absolutely visit again, and again.....

Our best vacation in a long time!! This was the first time using VRBO and it did not disappoint. Peter met us at the airport, and the condo was lovely. It was everything that they represented, and everything you could have wanted for accomodation, as well as being extremely well stocked with itensils, bedding, towels,etc, and a helpful booklet to get you orientated on Zihuatanejo. We felt very safe at the condo, as well as in Zihuatanejo in general. The staff and other residents at the condo are extremely helpful and friendly, and more than willing to accomodate. The location is great as well, a 2 minute walk to Playa Madera, a 15 minute walk to Playa Ropa, a 10 minute walk downtown, and maybe a 10-15 minute walk to the Commercial Supermarket. Taxis are cheap if you don't feel like walking. We can hardly wait to come back, as we love the condo as well as the extremely friendly people and city of Zihuatanejo. P.S. the food at the restaurant across the street 'La Casa Vieja" is excellent!! Thanks Peter and Carol for being lovely hosts, for a vacation we will treasure, and see you soon!!............................in fact enjoyed so much we are coming back in 2011

From the moment Peter and Carol met us at the airport through our entire stay, Peter and Carol were the finest of hosts and the facilities excellent and clean. Everything one could need was there for our use and even shopping for food was enjoyable. Peter had left s some beer and a nice Chilean wine. Just a sample of their pleasant attitude. One could not ask for more genial neighbors, a more more pleasant manager (owner of the complex, builder) or a more safe environment. By the way, all of your future guests should be aware that the people of Zihuatanejo are friendly, helpful and genuinely nice. We can't wait to go back and we will certainly stay there again. We would be happy to be a reference anytime. Bruce & Andrea Maynes
Owner response:Thank you for your positive comments. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay & the people of Zihuatanejo. Come back to see us soon.

We stayed at Carol & Peter's condo for two weeks in January. We loved the location and the whole ambience of the unit. The kitchen was very well equipped to do any cooking you wanted to do and the information provided was useful. Everyone in the complex was very friendly. We would definately stay here again.

My friend and I spent two weeks at La Ceiba in November and loved every minute of it. We especially enjoyed the very roomy outdoor patio area and being 'poolside'. The location in Zihua is perfect - easy walking distance to beaches and to 'el Centro'. Hosts, Peter and Carol were most congenial and helpful. Lots of info about Zihua was available with the organized binder they had put together being most helpful. On a return trip to Zihua, we would definitely hope to stay at this lovely spot again!

My wife and I stayed at Peter's condo for 7 days in October. The condo is in a great location, walking distance to everything. It is very spacious and well stocked. There is a binder with lots of info and maps to help you out. We loved our trip and our stay, we plan to return to Zihua and plan to stay in this condo again. Thank you Peter for everything we really enjoyed it. Scott and Kristin

We just came back from a 2 week vacation in Zihuatanejo. We stayed at Peter and Carol's condo and we really enjoyed it. The condo is decorated with taste and you can find everything you desire in the kitchen. Everything we needed was there to make our vacation enjoyable. The location is perfect, closed to the beach and "el centro". All the info left for us in a well organized scrapbook was really useful. It's a great place!

Peter and Carol were amazing hosts and incredibly helpful! We spent 4 nights at this beautiful condo at the beginning of our trip and we could not have asked for anything more. It was absolutely perfect. So perfect we had to return for a few more nights at the end of our trip and we had a hard time leaving. Place is quiet, comfortable and very clean. We had the pool to ourselves the entire time. Location of this place is perfect, minutes from the beach and downtown, and situated in the most quaint little neighborhood in Zihua! We will be back! Thanks again, Julie & Mike

This is a place for color, comfort & kind hosts. The condo is beautifully decorated, open & airy. Just a skip away is the clean, crisp pool. Siesta offers lots of choices - the hammock on the patio - the comfy banquettes or a shaded lounge chair poolside. This is the part of Zihua I prefer - a mix of locals & foreigners - quiet because it isn't on the tourist route - shaded by old trees - & just 5 minutes from the beach. No question about returning & that comes from a traveller who has spent much time here & there. A treasure!

We were met at the airport by our welcoming hosts and taken straight to this wonderful condo. It is right by the pool. The interior is tastefully decorated.The kitchen is well equipped.We felt all our stress slip away as we relaxed in this delightful spot.

Our stay was everything we expected & more....not only is the place very comfortable but also it is in a great location! Everything you need is in walking distance. The restaurants in the quaint neighborhood had wonderful food. If you like to cook, the kitchen is well appointed & has all the appliances you need. There is a supermarket nearby as well as a local farmers' market with a great Mexican flavor. We enjoyed walks to the nearby beaches & downtown. The pool steps away from the condo patio provided a refreshing afternoon swim. Peter & Carol are lovely hosts & shared valuable information. We will definitely return soon. Angie & Hans

My wife and I just came back from a week at La Ceiba... we had a wonderful time. This ground floor condo was clean and well equipped. The owners went well beyond the call of duty to make our visit special. The only downside is that the NE half of the condo complex is still under construction... building starts at 8:00 AM and there was some moderate noise. Peter had let me know before I rented that this was on-going, so there was no surprise here. I heartily recommend this rental for its location, price and clean and comfortable space. -Dave
Owner response:Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. The final stage of construction should be completed pronto!
