A piece of paradise
If anything, the pictures do not do not do the casa don pepe justice. The location was great - right outside the walls was the village of Barra de Pototsi. Our family enjoyed the small shops, restaurants and friendliness there. Our kids played soccer with the local children and even attended a birthday party of a local girl. Talk about cultural education! But back to the villa - it was idea for our family of 23. The caretaker family met our every need. We loved the pool and the ocean front. We lounged in the hammocks, played games, and ate lots of great food including fresh fruit everyday. The rooms were very clean and quite spacious. The only issue that we had, even though we thought we came prepared was the small black bugs that were quite viscous. Most of us came home with multiple itchy bites. That was a small price to pay in comparison to the abundant amenities and wonderful location of the Casa Don Pepe. Would love to visit again.

Perfect setup
We celebrated our 20 yr. wedding anniversary at this property, and performed a renewal ceremony with family on the beach outside the gates. This place was perfect for us. The location is outside of the tourist hubs of Zihua/Ixtapa, right on the beach, with almost everything you need within walking distance. The property is spacious, pristine, clean. We couldn't have been happier with the owner and staff. We elected to have the staff prepare nearly every meal for our 12 guests, including some custom requests. The food was incredible and made the experience completely stress-free. Everything exceeded our expectations. Thank you to Macarena and all of the staff who made our stay so memorable. We hope they understood our gratitude despite our broken spanish.

Family Get together
The location is very calm. Grounds are beautiful. Rooms are spacious. Workers were excellent. Only downsides was the mattresses were very hard and there is no air conditioning in the rooms. Even in October it was unbearable to sleep. This place would be perfect with better mattresses and air conditioning.

Will return without hesitation!! Amazing place and staff
Rooms - spacious, clean, tidied daily Grounds - incredible, unique, 3 cool dogs, fruit trees, ocean views, hammocks, multiple palappas for gathering together or for seclusion, Wi-Fi under main palapa, beautiful pool maintained meticulously, beach towels and lounge chairs, beach access right out of the gate Staff- our favorite part! They became family and the kind of family you want to claim! The highlight was the meals. Mid-week,We stopped requesting food and just let the experts do what they do best. we gladly anticipated whatever amazing platters came to our table. Weather was incredible. We requested taxis into zijuatenejo and ixtapa proper and enjoyed exploring a bit, but soon found ourselves craving our “home” for the week. Highlights included every meal together (19 of us!), simple card games, hammock naps, and memorable tortilla lessons with Jasmine. Highlights for our teenagers included daily walks to the market for Mexican “junk food”, renting surfboards, and hours in the waves Regrets: Did not rent surfboards earlier in the week. Bringing beach towels from home (no need!) Disregarding post-dinner evenings as prime ocean time. Sunsets and swimming were ideal, without need for fastidious sunscreen application. No bug spray on morning beach jaunts. Chocolate snacks that melted Don’t forget: aloe Vera, lots of sunscreen, Sun hats, swim shirts/rash guards, beach games, beach speaker, bug spray, google translate app if your Spanish is anything like ours, clothespins for bags of chips if you want to eat them after day one, ziploc bags for wet swimsuits on last day

About the host

Hosted by Macarena Villarreal

Host profile image
I´m from Mexico City, born in 1960, grew up in Mexico city until graduated as a Graphic Designer in the Universidad Anahuac Mexico City. Then I went to study Photography in Rome Italy where I lived for 11 years, got married to an Italian Photographer and came back to Mexico where we had a daughter (Mónica) and a son(Fulvio).
CASA DE DON PEPE was built by my father, Pepe.
My brothers and sisters (we are 6, 3 boys and 3 girls) now own the Villa.
It´s our private paradise. The place where we grew, where we spent all our holidays with cousins, grandparents, and friends, where we learned to be a family and where we learned to respect and to love nature.
We still spend all the free days we get with our mother, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters and of course all the grandchildren!
It´s our heavenly nest of love.

Why they chose this property

In 1968 our parents wanted to take us for a vacation, and someone lent house near the beach of Playa Blanca, so there we went. When we got there, we found that it was near the beach (a half an hour walk under the sun) a place where there was not a shadow or the opportunity to play in the water because the waves were very big. The keeper of that place offered to bring us (the whole family) to a kids friendly beach, and so they gave us a ride in a tractor to the Barra (place where the lagoon meets with the ocean). It was paradise! We could play in the sea and the place was just amazing. So my father being an architect decided to by an acre of land and build a house.
With the considered remodulation is now CASA DE DON PEPE.
We love to because it´s still in the heart of nature, calm and save; the perfect place to meditate, relax or live together with your beloved ones.

What makes this property unique

Away from the crowd, the tourist, the city, it´s the place where you can enjoy life. A unique place where you can combine the appreciation of nature, the communication with everyone around you, privacy and some sports of your choice.
The staff concerning about your well being and making everything to provide you with what you need.
The opportunity to see the authentic mexican fishermen´s village.
And the best free seafood toy can get cooked by a Natalia the great chef, for mexican food, international and expert in pastas in the very italian way!
