The owner and staff were welcoming and so attentive. Great location and quality for the price. Hot shower and thick towels. Rooms near the beach can experience some noise on the weekends as guests gather there but that’s to be expected.

Hotel Playa Zipolite is right on the Main Street in Zipolite, within walking distance to restaurants, bars, on one side and direct access to the beach on the other side. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is super friendly.

Clean. Cold AC. Attentive cleaning staff. WiFi. Comfortable beds. It’s was an overall pleasant stay. You’re not in the room much since you’re out and about but sleep was comfortable and the shower was great. It’s not a 5 star hotel and some might

Property was nice and very reasonably priced for being on the beach. They had a nice shaded patio area facing the ocean for reading and relaxing. Pool area was nice, but I didn't spend a lot of time there. Staff was very helpful and professional. The only complaint is that the power went out for 24 hours. A bit of an inconvenience but I would stay there again.

Great location. Rooms have been updated with nice bathrooms, fridge and AC units. Needs a safe to store valuables and passports. Beach towels were not easily accessible. Some days you could get towels and on some ocassions beach towels were denied by the front office. Pool area was dirty. Pool had leaves in it and the water was murky. Outdoor beach areas had limited seating and frequently were full of empty cans and garbage.

end of Nov 2025 the hotel is under renovation, drilling will disturb you from 8 am until 6pm. It looks like works should be done by Jan '26. Despite the noise I had a great stay, initially planned to stay for 2 nights but ended up extending to 4 nights. Great location, A/C works great, TV with cable tv with some channels in english, hot water and the hotel is in ok shape. Wifi is good enough to watch netflix on the ipad in the evenings, but I don't think the signal is good enough for video calls, I had one on my phone and the video and audio lagged . The hotel is basic but comfortable. The highlight is the beach area with the lounge chairs under a proper hut to protect you from the sun. The town is tinny but you've got what you need for an enjoyable stay. There's a coffee shop by the entrance, some bakeries, and plenty of restaurants around. Nights are peaceful with no noise. I'm a female traveling solo and felt safe and comfortable during my stay. The hotel staff is kind, friendly and helpful. I'm definitely coming back after the renovations are finished.

I arrived at hotel to book for the night, connected to their wifi but it was very slow and got disconnected and the site ended up changing the dates with a new session that I didn’t notice til my confirmation. Staff was unwilling to cancel the booking even though this all happened directly in front of them.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Where do I start… the destination was good, on the main ave, so easy access to everything. However, parking lot capacity was only 3 cars, the wifi and internet connection was nil, completely non-existent, so don’t go expecting to do anything online!!! There was no way possible to access the tv as it is ONLY a Samsung tv so your iPhone is useless but without no wifi/internet it was useless anyway! There was no use of the pool, yes it was being renovated but state that in a message or give me a discount because literally non of the amenities mentioned were available! Yes there is access to the beach, however there are but 2 benches and 4 beach beds-which are occupied by the long term expats (although they really were the kindest people) on the daily-so don’t expect to get a place to spend a beach day! There was no real service for bevies, but the restaurant next fore will come serve you and they have palapas for use there, so there is access to that! The best part, the water was hot! For price meh, it I think I would suggest spending the extra and get the full deal with all the amenities that actual exist!

A guest walks out the back of this property directly onto the beautiful beach or out the front directly onto main street. The hotel is quiet, seems secure, adequate lighting without being too bright and glaring. The pool and surroundings looked great, but I didn't go in since the ocean was right there. Room staff very attentive and in and out by mid-morning. I extended my original reservation and will go back.

Staff were terrific. Welcoming and very attentive. Can't beat the location. The room is very basic but very clean. The bed was very comfortable - great mattress. Overall the room met my needs. I'd have liked it better if the internet worked more often and better and if there'd been a secure locker/safe to keep things. Having said that I'd definitely return.

Great location

The hotel is basic, but clean, and the beds are comfortable. Also, the AC is fantastic, and for the price point there are not a lot of options with hotels that offer AC. The location could not be better, beach front and next to some great restaurants and beach clubs. WiFi is spotty throughout the day, and hot water runs out when too many people shower in the morning, but overall not too much of a concern if you can work around that. On a side note, the room had a fridge. I plugged it in, and it worked, but emitted a foul odor. I would suggest not plugging in the fridge if your room has one. Once unplugged, the smell went away. Originally booked 2 nights, ended up extending the stay. Easily recommend the hotel for anyone that is looking for basic but clean accommodation.
