Simply, richly, beautifully ideal.

MetaGrrrl San Francisco, California
Review Submitted: November 3, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
Casa D'Arte was exactly what we two busy professional couples needed for a thoroughly relaxing getaway. Their website gave us a very good idea of what to expect, but despite all the photos we weren't prepared for how beautiful a place it and Zihuatanejo. We received a great price and above-and-beyond-excellent service from Harriet in preparing for our trip; thanks to her detailed guides we had no worries and could fully relax both before and during the trip.

We strongly recommend this lovely rental and hope to return soon. If you're like us, you don't need to do anything special. Just enjoy the condo, its amazing terrace, and the infinity pools in the complex. Or stroll down the hill 5 minutes, plant your toes in the sand under a palapa, and enjoy another great, inexpensive meal at Paty's. We did go out for one fancy meal we would strongly recommend at La Casa Que Canta. We also had good dinners at the Tides and Kau Can.

Hot tip: if you arrive late, The Tides is a fancy but worry-free first stop for an after dark dinner.

We traveled in mid-October and only had rain overnight two nights. The days were perfect.

*sigh*

It's too soon to go on vacation again, huh? Darn.

Relax In Outdoor and Indoor Beauty!

Pacific Northwest Escapee Vancouver, Washington
Review Submitted: March 27, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
This two-bedroom condo is truly unique. The art and decor should be in Architectural Digest, if it's not already. The two bedrooms are situated so that there is privacy between the two bedrooms, which was important to us, but there is definitely an advantage to being in "our" bedroom with sliding glass doors facing the ocean. The back bedroom is a bit quieter, however, since you don't hear the waves pounding, and it's also cooler if you decide not to use the air conditioning.

We have stayed in different condos in this same complex before, so it is worth mentioning that Casa D'Arte is truly special, even within a very special group of condos, in terms of it's location, view, interior design, and amenities. At the same time, I want to say how wonderful the staff at the whole condo complex are. There is 24 hour security, and the manager/assistant managers are terrific, including helping us with our bags when we arrived and in choosing restaurants. They are warm, gracious, knowledgable, and helpful--it would be impossible to say enough good things about them.

Another way in which this unit stands out is the support from the rental agent and owners prior to and after your arrival. They sent high-value information that helped us plan and enjoy our trip, including up-to-date information on restaurants and activities. Again, although we were already familiar with the area, this service exceeded our expectations with better, more specific information that we typically have received.

This condo would be a great choice for a couple on a honeymoon or romantic vacation, or if you wanted an extra room for guests who were coming for a visit during part of your stay. It's close to the beach and some excellent restaurants. If you don't relish sitting on the beach, you are within easy access of snorkeling, diving, fishing, para-sailing, and kayaking options. We liked reading on the large, shaded patio surrounded by beautiful plants. The only people, other than children, who should not stay here are those who are unable to walk up a half-flight of stairs to the elevator, or if you are physically unbalanced--the railings on the porch are beautiful, but they would not stop an intoxicated adult or anyone else who leaned too far over and lost their balance.

Casa d'Art

RandJ St. Albert, AB, Canada
Review Submitted: February 17, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We loved our end of January 2009 vist to Casa d'Art and Zihuatanejo. Casa Que Ve Al Mar and Casa d'Art were both picture perfect.

The temperature was consistently 32 degrees centigrade (a significant change from our Canadian January weather), but we adjusted quickly, visited the beautiful Playa Ropa daily and always had time to relax in the infinity pools.

We explored the backside of Playa Los Gatos and made our way to the lighthouse, but ran out of energy in our attempt to hike to Manzanillo Beach...next time.

The taxis and municipal bus to Zihua were always delightful and we managed to explore much of the city and surrounding Ixtapa during our stay. We had drinks at Casa Que Cante and will plan for dinner at our next visit. Puerto de Sol was fun and the flambe dessert yummy. We had a couple of breakfasts at Casa Cafe and it was always filling and healthy... and the coffee the best we found in town.

Casa d'Art was most relaxing. We loved the huge terrace; it was the perfect place for reading, sunset watching and snoozing.

Since our retrun to Canada, we have had many occasions to praise the vacation itself, the hospitality of all the people at Casa Que Ve Al Mar (staff and guests) and the enjoyable, peaceful lifestyle of Zihuatanejo.

Thanks for the all the advice and recommendations provided in advance of our visit!

Take care,

Alberta, Canada
