About this property

Best Ocean Views in Manzanillo 180 degree view from king size bed all amenities

Welcome to Casitas Santiago Hills!

People say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but no picture can describe the breathtaking views this private beautiful 1 bedroom apartment has to offer, from the beautiful city lights of Manzanillo during the night, to the amazing multicolored hues of the sunset reflecting over the sea.

This spacious apartment is perfectly designed to use all the natural energy the world has to offer so your stay is always full of natural light and is naturally cool.

During the day the sea breeze blows directly into the loft offering a much cooler stay than any other place below the hill at sea level.
During the night the wind blows from inland over the mountains coming directly into the loft.
Specially designed windows allow for the cool wind to recycle constantly inside the house creating a fresh atmosphere, and if you feel you need a little more cooling the multiple ceiling mounted fans, will take care of that for you; as well as the waterfall like fountain located inside the living room.

Forget the traffic, noise and neighbors, enjoy life above it all, Santiago Hills is perfectly secluded and just above the life of this amazing town.

Enjoy the beautiful pool & stunning palapa that offers views of the ocean and city.

Stop thinking about it! only 25 minutes away from the Airport of Manzanillo, 5 minutes from La Punta and 20 minutes from the Port of Manzanillo. **WE OFFER FREE AIRPORT PICK UP**

A lovely place to stay for our first time in Manzanillo. The villa accommodations are comfortable and the deck and palapa and pool feel so luxurious. Ayelet was very responsive and would check in to see how our stay was going. We were not very organized and she helped make snorkeling and massage arrangements for us adding to the fun of our vacation. Linda is so kind and gave us a drive to the bus depot at the end of our stay. We felt like we were with family! Thank you!

Super friendly accommodating hosts. the hotel is very nice and clean. we were booked to stay there but had our flights cancelled. Ayelet and Linda offered us different nights. We did go and check the place out ( glad we did ) but we ended up going back to Melaque where we had another hotel booked. Would love to stay here for a few months but you definitely need a car.

It was a pleasure to have you ladies and look forward to have you back soon! Regarding the car, yes, it is definitely more comfortable to have a car. There are Taxies and Uber services, however we offer the opportunity to rent a vehicle we own by day, week or month. If our vehicle is already rented (a it already was to other tenants when you stayed), there is an agency that offers car rentals for very accessible price. We are happy to provide their information when asked.

Life in the clouds

We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay at the casita. Ayelet was an amazing host, so accommodating and very quick to reply to every request. But, hands down, the best part of the rental was Linda. She lives on the property but you would never know it until you needed something. She was so helpful with suggestions on where to visit, where to eat and helping with transportation. We will definitely be back.

Try the hammocks!!!

We stayed for 3 weeks in this property. While the convenience of having a vehicle would be nice, we did not find it necessary and actually enjoyed our walks down the hill into town. That being said, it's not a walk I would wish to do with young children or mobility challenged due to the steep and uneven ground for a majority of it. Taxis and tuk tuks are plentiful at the bottom of the hill and it's a short 10 minute ride to the grocery store. We tried a few different beaches in the area and our favorite was Playa Miramar. The waves are big enough to have fun in but not scary. I highly recommend the Oasis Beach Club there, grab a table on the beach, have lunch and spend the day playing in the ocean. The food is amazing. Our favorite thing about the unit was by far the hammocks on the upper deck. We travel to a different area in Mexico almost every year and this was the first place that we thought we could have stayed longer. I like to cook so a kitchen is important to me. The kitchen is equipped with the very basics. There were no food storage containers, no scissors, no baking pans. We bought an inexpensive set of measuring cups that we left behind. It did have a great knife though! All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed every moment we were there. It's a wonderful place.

Hi, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. I wish you would have told me about the kitchen items you needed. Most of the people does not bake or even cook during their stay therefore these items are not needed but when requested we make sure to provide everything our guests need. If we did not have it in our storage, we would have happily buy a new one and keep it at the unit. I reached out to you a couple of times to see how everything was going and if you needed anything, but since I did not hear back I did not want to bug you. We believe anything can be solved with communication. Next time I recommend you ask and I can guarantee you that most of us "hosts" we will go out out our way to provide you with your needs. You did not have to spend money on any of the kitchen supplies. Sorry this was not brought to our attention before. We hope to have you back in the future and we will make sure to have these items from now on in our unit.

Comfortable, clean property with stunning views of Santiago Bay

From the moment we arrived for our 3 week January 2016 stay at Casita Santiago Hills we felt at home. From the airport arrival pickup by Hermolinda - the property manager - to the end of our trip and drop off at the airport, we felt spoiled by her attentive and accommodating manner. She helped us book tickets for an event, took us to the Saturday Market (fabulous fresh fruit and vegetables!) and the local meat and fish shops, and when needed, called us cabs. We as well had her prepare, for us and 4 friends, an authentic Mexican meal that was a highlight of our stay! The price was very reasonable and the quality of the food as good as meals we had at some of Manzanillo's best restaurants. The suite/loft itself was spotless, comfortable and even without air-conditioning was cool in the evenings with the ocean breeze. At times it sounded like the surf/beach was right outside our door as we could hear the waves crashing, even though the location is a considerable way up the hill. The bed was comfortable and the couches perfect for stretching out and watching some T.V. off the satellite dish. We enjoyed the space but at times when we were cooking up a storm at dinner we found the counter space somewhat limiting in the loft. But then when we were able to have that same dinner sitting under the spacious and well appointed Palapas (internet access, sink, sound system, couches, tables, chairs) with a fantastic sunset view of the bay it did not seem so bad. :) Most meal times found us sitting on the private balcony right off the kitchen, enjoying the fresh air and the view. One should be aware as noted in other reviews that the property is at the very top of the hills overlooking Santiago bay and therefore walking out the door to the beach/market/town square and back does not lend itself to being a routine excursion. Though we made the trip down the hill often, we typically then caught a cab for the trip back up - especially if we had groceries or the heat of the day was on. Part of the time we rented a car for some trips out of Manzanillo (Colima, La Manzanilla, Barra Navidad) and that certainly made the hillside location much more accessible. Yes one also needs to know that occasionally there is an evening/early morning contest between the area dogs and roosters to see which can cause the most noise. Overall our stay at Casita Santiago Hills was excellent value and we are sure to consider it when planning our next visit to Manzanillo.

Excelente lugar y excelente servicio

El lugar lo tiene todo, privacidad, comodidad, vista y atención. Esta listo para usarse desde el primer momento que llegas, cuenta con todos los utensilios necesarios para cocinar, amplios espacios en las diferentes zonas del loft y de las áreas comunes, la limpieza y el orden es otro punto muy a favor. Sin embargo la atención de la señora Linda es probablemente lo mejor del lugar, siempre fue atenta y servicial a cualquier cosa que necesitáramos, definitivamente volveré

Perfect Once More

Please see my review for this same location from February, 2018. All those comments continue to apply and Linda is still the perfect hostess. We are already booked to spend four months here next winter. We now consider ourselves "veterans" of Manzanillo (I know, a stretch after only two years) and I think we have a pretty good "feel" for what is available in the City and surrounding area and, in our view, this is absolutely the best location and the best value on the market. If you are planning a visit to this delightful area of Mexico, this is the place to stay.

A great vacation!

The "Loft" was everything we'd hoped for. The accommodation was wonderful with a beautiful pool, beautiful views, and beautiful weather. We did find climbing the hill a bit daunting but taxis are plentiful and cheap. Linda was very helpful and introduced us to Jorge, a local English-speaking cabbie, who took us on a day trip to various towns and tourist attractions. A couple of small items would make the Loft even more perfect: binoculars to enjoy the view, more kitchen cooking utensils (pots & pans), and a VCR for the VHS collection. All in all a fine vacation!
Response from VrboOwner on 17 Mar 2020
Thanks for your review Kathie, Too bad that you did not ask for what you are mentioning in your review before. We do have binoculars, my mom has extra kitchen utensils for all the units we rent and believe it or not we do have a VCR! We only left the DVD player for the DVD Collection also on the loft since now in days people don't want to watch VHS movies, specially since a lot of our renters now watch Netflix. But as we always ask our renters, if you ask Linda, she will make sure you get anything you need :) We will make sure you have it in your next trip. Happy 2019 and look forward to having you guys back soon!

A Wonderful Experience!

We just returned from a 3 month stay at Casitas de Santiago. We loved every minute of it, so much so that we have already booked for the same period next year. The most important benefit of this location is the presence of the live-on-site owner/manager Hermelinda; her kindness, generosity and resourcefulness never ceased to amaze us. While never intrusive, she was always right there to quickly and efficiently deal with any (few) issues, maintenance or otherwise, that might arise. Thank you linda, for all you did for us! The loft unit is every bit as beautiful as depicted in the pictures. Bright, airy, constant cooling breezes, spectacular views of Santiago Bay. Unit is very well equipped and maintained; most comfortable bed we have ever slept in! The palapa and pool are delightful and with only two other rental units in the complex we really had the common areas completely to ourselves 90% of the time as other guests would be off most of the day golfing or just exploring beaches etc. We loved Manzanillo! Beaches to walk for miles, many great places to eat and drink (most at very modest prices) modern fully stocked super markets and other shopping and, of course, the large, funky and eclectic Santiago market on Saturdays...if they don't have it, you don't need it! We used buses and taxis for all our transportation needs, cheap and easy! But most attractive to us was the people of Manzanillo...almost without exception they were warm, friendly, and eager to be helpful. It helps to have at least a few basic Spanish phrases...you don't have to be fluent at all, just try! Oh, and the weather...we were there 95 days, cloudless blue skies for 92 days, some overcast for 3 days with one hour of showers. Temperatures warm (ie hot in the sun) days and delightfully cool evenings for sleeping. Now you know why we are going back!

Scenic, Relaxing Place to Chill Out

Condo located up on a hill so it's a nice view of the ocean and surrounding hillside. The condo inside is nicely decorated, and the bed is very comfortable. There are many windows and ceiling fans in the unit, so air conditioning is not necessary - there is always a nice ocean breeze coming into the unit. And yes, there is internet. Linda, the owner's mother, lives in the condo below and was very helpful about local information, and for a small fee picked us up and drove us back to the Playa del Oro airport. We found this very convenient. We would recommend this place for families and people who just want to chill out. It has an adequate kitchen for home cooked meals, and a nice pool and lounge area outside where children can play. We found the location a bit remote because it was on a fairly steep hill which made it difficult to walk to anywhere, and the small town wasn't really within walking distance. You need a car. Linda was nice enough to rent us her car, and we used it a couple of days for excursions, but because we had some heavy rainy days, we were not comfortable driving it up the steep road to the condo. Consequently, we did not go out for dinner because driving back at night in those rain storms was out of our comfort zone.

Very Relaxing Spot With Great View

Fantastic place to hang out in the pool, palapa or hammocks, great view of the harbor. Special thanks to property manager, Hermelinda (Linda), for her dedication to make sure we had everything we needed, fix what was broken and provide information on places to go and things to do. We did a day trip with her to Colima and area, excellent. Our unit was comfortable, nice breeze flowing thru with very basic but adequate dishes, utensils, pots and pans. Sombra, her dog, was a constant companion every day, hanging out on the deck, in our unit or taking her for walks. Caretaker, Benito, was always around, cleaning the pool, cleaning the deck area, painting and helping as required. Having the Housekeeper twice a week was a nice luxury. The long and steep hill leading up to our unit was challenging but easier with each descent and climb back up. the back trail on the left side was easier but tricky with dirt and rocky section and ample supply of barking dogs. Using the stairs thru the lower unit was easiest. Of course, using very reasonable taxis was always preferred. The beach below is very easy to walk as long as you care, walked many times to Oasis for refreshments and meals. Check out their happy hour times and entertainment. Great eating places, favorites include Pacifica Del Mar, La Forgon, Jack's, Oasis, and for basic cheap food and drinks, hostel at the bottom the the hill. A unique experience was Bar Social, by Soriano, you pay for drinks and food is free. Local Saturday market is intriguing for finding Mexican crafts, cloths, jewelry or fresh vegetables and fruit. Major grocery stores in Manzanillo include La Comer, Walmart and Sorieno, very reasonably priced and cheap booze too. Highly recommend day trip or two to Maleque and area as well as Colima to see the active volcano. Pleasant surprise was the need for a dentist to make a night guard, Dr. Guillermo Brambila Meda in Santiago was very accommodating, funny and cheap, 1/10 the cost compared to home.. Highly recommended if needed.

Priceless view and amazing vacations

When we arrived at this Manzanillo rental, we were blown away by the view and the location. Located at the top of the hill, this location has an amazing terrace with a view of a million bucks, where you can BBQ or simply lounge during the sunset. If you go with small children like we did, you will have a hard time getting your kids our of the pool. The apartment is very cozy with lots of natural light during the day. At night you can see the ships in the ocean and you can still hear the ocean waves crashing – simply amazing. Food and hospitality in Manzanillo has no match. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We will definitely come back. Hopefully soon!

Ideal Casita For Two

Casita de Santiago is a superb vacation accommodation for a couple, located atop a nice residential area in the Santiago Hills, a suburb west of the primary tourist, commercial and industrial areas of Manzanillo. As advertised, it has outstanding views of Bahia de Santiago and cooling ocean breezes. Our Hostess, Linda, lives on the property and was gracious in attending to our every request. The pool is literally a few steps from the casita entry, and while small, is perfect for cooling off in the afternoon. The casita has its own private terrace when seclusion is desired, but our favorite place was relaxing in a hammock under the palapa on the expansive terrace shared by the guests of the three-unit complex, chatting with new friends, enjoying adult beverages while watching the sunset. The casita has its own gated parking space for your rental car, which is recommended unless you are avid hill climbers. We always drove into town for shopping and for walks on the beautiful Playa de Santiago, especially its western end. We felt perfectly comfortable driving in Manzanillo.

Wonderful Hospitality

We just returned from a wonderful two weeks at this lovely property, which is just as shown, clean, comfortable and all the necessities to have a great vacation. It also boasts luxuries like a refreshing pool, fantastic outdoor space in the palapa which offers amazing views of the bay and surrounding areas. The beach is nearby and the swimming is great, you can walk for miles or stop at the beach club for a cold one and a great lunch under an umbrella to watch the ships come and go. The public transportation by bus, cab or motor coach for longer distances are close, safe, affordable. Go to Barra Navidad or Melaque for the day, you won't regret it. There are lots of great places to eat and shop. The best thing about the loft is the lady who lives beneath it, Linda. She was a gem, so helpful and generous. We were also fortunate to be able to spend time with Ayelet, Sean and their family, who made us feel so welcome. Our time spent here will be very fondly remembered and we recommend it to anyone who wants to get away from the resorts and enjoy the beautiful country of Mexico.

Manzanillo Lovers.

We have been to every beach in Mexico, and Manzanillo wins because of its pueblo feel, affordability, privacy, and its not a big PARTY TOWN, making it very nice and quiet, exactly what we want when we retire.

Why they chose this property

We actually built the whole complex from scratch, it was an empty piece of land and now its a 4 house complex. Its was built between 2008 & 2009.

The benefits we see its that its a very small town, with no major international tourism keeping things pretty quiet and relaxed. Being only a couple of hours away from Los Angeles direct flight from LAX to ZLO and also the house is located just 20 min away from the airport, pretty much at the very beginning of the town. The house is located on a hill very secluded from the noise and traffic and everyone else, so its quite private.
Our families have been coming to this town to vacation since the 60's so we decided to make it our second home.

What makes this property unique

Perfect weather, amazing views, its cooler than most properties at sea level since we are on a hill.
We can just walk down the hill to the beach with our dogs; also to the convenience market just below the hill we could buy basic necessities as well as beer/ wine.

We now have UBER service in our town!
