Our room was large and nice, the air worked great, an adequate fridge, and they made room for my extras in the family kitchen fridge. The family kitchen is well supplied with all manner of cooking needs. The family is very welcoming, as is Felisa, the manager.
You are a short walk down to La Ropa beach. Walking to Madera beach by the road is about a km., and has a long uphill grade if that bothers you. At night past 7 pm you are taking a taxi, as walking isn't recommended, but taxis are cheap. Have fun!
I am a Mexican Canadian who has lived in Mexico for most of my life. I manage El Tamarindo at Casa Calamondin for other family members who built it in the late 90s/early 2000s for family use and who continue to visit as often as their busy lives elsewhere permit. This provides a perfect opportunity to offer the home's many private rooms and apartments to other guests and renters.
El Tamarindo at Casa Calamondin is cozy, quiet, safe, and has a typically Mexican vibe. The outdoor areas are wreathed with flowers and tropical vegetation.
It is located only a short walk from Playa La Ropa, the best swimming beach on Zihuatanejo Bay. It is convenient to a number of excellent restaurants and public transportation, giving easy access to downtown without the noise and bustle of Zihuatanejo centro.
