Pros +
- The hotel was perfect for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of puerto Escondido central, yet not too far to enjoy amnesties.. The best part hands down was the rooftop infinity pool. Did not disappoint especially at sunset
- Loved the filtered water stations.
- Nothing, they took money from my room. They didn't help
Cons -
- The only real flow was the water pressure in the shower and the hot water take a bit to get hot
- Would have been nice to have a coffee machine and a small fridge in the room.

Great staff, clean, quiet property with secure parking
Staff were excellent and very helpful, suggesting local services. Location is great particularly if you or anyone in your party has trouble walking as it is on the beach. Most other hotels are located on top of the steep hill and its a walk up and down to get to the beach. Some roads are not paved. Elevator was broken when we got there, but fixed the following day. They have filtered water to refill water bottles. Rooms are very clean and AC works great!
There was no gas initially when we arrived over the new year holiday therefore there was no hot water and the hotel restaurant wasn't able to cook anything. So we loaded up on yummy guacamole and chips and fruit bowls when pool side. The gas was delivered the following day and we were able to take hot showers and order from the full menu. I appreciated that they gave us food and beverage vouchers for the day without gas.
Hotel was great for the kids! The apartment we stayed in was perfect for the 4 of us & the pools were lovely.
Our son was sick & we had a fantastic concierge pediatrician come to us. The receptionist was rude & on a power trip with her & us. Otherwise, the rest of the staff was great.
The roof pool had a nice sunset view. They provided pool and beach towels.
Due to a bad stay elsewhere we were forced to book this motel like accommodation last minute and it cost the same as the rosewood mandarina. It was clean, but this is a 3 star pretty much in the middle of nowhere and the onsite restaurant was not very good. Meh.
Clean , location is pretty good , nice staff
No gym, pool is not open later at night, no fridge in the room, umbrellas and lounge chairs closer to the ocean would be a nice addition
Clean, had two pools, the one on the fourth floor overlooking the ocean was our favourite. Air condiioner worked great. We got an ocean view room which was nice. Wifi was decent too.
No fridges in the room so you couldn’t have cold drinks. Puerto Escondido is oppressively humid so a mini fridge would really help. Our shower curtain would billow out if we turned on the water full blast right at the beginning of our shower. The curtain would not keep the water in the shower so we had several large spills/miniature floods. Lastly, the shower head in our shower probably needs replacing.
Nice hotel , with 2 pools and nice balcony. Large room and large bathroom. Very clean and quiet. Hotel has a parking. And umbrellas with lounge chair right on the beach.
Right on the beach but not so close to restaurants etc. good thing we had a car.
The rooftop pool with a view is truly a unique feature in Zicatela
The booking description of the room is misleading. And it’s clear that the staff is aware but doesn’t care. I booked a room that said “sea view” thinking it was the rooms in front with a direct sea view - so was surprised to be given a room with only had a partial view. When I raised the issue I was told there were no other available rooms (which clearly wasn’t true). You would also expect some level of service for the price but there really is not much offered other than 24 hour front desk and parking. I’ve stayed at this hotel before in the apartments but will not be doing so again and would no longer recommend it. There are many other options near by that are a better value and are not trying to trick you with the room descriptions.
It was clean and the ac was good ?
The hot water took forever to get warm. They scammed us out of 100 pesos when we left because they said we cracked the tissue cover, we never touched the item. The employees were cordial until we checked out. We will never stay there again and we will go out of our way to keep people away.
Great location across the beach and walking distance from shops and restaurants. Roof pool has great views. Very clean hotel. Nice architecture.
Loved the roof top pool. Right across the road from the beach which gave us a nice place to walk. Down the beach there were plenty of places to eat and shop. Off street parking for our car was a bonus.
Buildings and architecture are ok and double pool and fabulous view on the beach
No soul, no decoration, no staff, location a bit in the middle of nothing , reception horrible, no service a part from a locked fridge
The pool top swimming pool
The property pressured via WhatsApp to pay balance pre arrival despite booking.coms terms. Very stressful saying they would cancel the booking. Air con did not work. No tea or coffee, no restaurants in the vicinity, no minibar/fridge. A lot of small children
I was expecting a hotel at the beach to reach the beach you have to walk across a goat’s head weeds.
The location and that they overcharge money from the original price on booking. They offered a room with balcony with ocean view and gave us a street view to a house
Good food, helpful staff, excellent room and a fantastic rooftop terrace with an infinity pool to take in the amazing sunsets!!
Not real criticisms. Laundry took a day longer than told to come back (including other people’s items) and we did have to wait a while to get a waitress to order food / drinks but these were minor points.
Breakfast and freshly squeezed juice in the hotel restaurant exceptionally delicious, beautiful view from the hotel terrace, room was clean and comfortable
We liked the pool and the room view. We were able to see the ocean by just opening the window!
The room we stayed in did not have a key card and the top lock did not lock (on purpose) which made the stay a little uncomfortable. At some point a lady was trying to enter our room, luckily we were inside and confronted her. She said she “got confused” and went to the room next door. Felt very fishy. Secondly, the location felt isolated from all the restaurants and night life. We couldn’t access beach across because the waves were too aggressive.
