My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon, it was the beginning of low season, first week of May...it was perfect. Clean, quiet, great location, great staff, and I feel like it was a great price for what we had. I read other reviews and others did not like the stairs, we did not mind them, but if you... More

My husband and I had our wedding at Aura del Mar in April and the only way to describe it was absolute perfection! We had never been to Zihua before arriving in town and so it was extremely scary to choose our wedding location solely by what we found online. However, we could not have been happier with our choice... More

I don't know how I never connected this with little slice of pure Zihua bliss, but after 6 years of making the trip, I'm glad I found Aura del Mar. The perfect blend of upscale surroundings in a very authentic Mexican theme made me really FEEL that I was in Mexico, not just staying at a typical nice resort that... More

My first time in Zihuatanejo and I loved this hotel. The staff were really friendly, the food was good, amazing views of the bay below, and they have a waterslide! Chips and guacamole and a margarita served beachside cannot be beat. Not to make this review all about food, but the breakfast that comes with your stay is delicious and... More

My girlfriend and I attended a friend's wedding at this hotel. It was the prettiest wedding ever. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful, breakfast was included, the rooms were comfy (along with your own balcony hot tub and hammock with ocean views), and the hotel is beachfront. Sleeping with the huge sliding glass window open to the sounds... More

We had the pleasure of staying a week at Aura del Mar in April of 2013. I can’t think of enough complimentary or positive things to say about this wonderful and beautiful hotel. We were perfectly comfortable in our room—the bed was incredibly comfy and decorated daily with beautiful, fresh flowers. Our balcony had a Jacuzzi, comfy chaises, a hammock... More

My boyfriend and I just got back from a week in Zihua. We stayed at the Aura Del Mar and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We were debating other hotels prior to booking but because of the price and rating on TripAdvisor, this hotel won out. Reasons why I would go back: 1. The VIEW!! We had room #10 which... More
