About this property

Playa la Ropa Apartment w/easy Beach Access and Pickleball around the corner

Privacy and Covid 19:

This apartment is very private, with it's own entrance, parking, patio and garden. It is separated from our living quarters with a fence and locked gate. The maid and gardener will be in your area for about 1.5 hours weekly. We will offer you fresh towels mid week, and other than that, you will only be around other people if you invite friends or family to join you. We are very much into our privacy and designed this apartment with that in mind. If you are concerned about exposure to others or just want your time to be yours, this apartment is the place for you.

A brand new Pickleball facility, La Cocina just opened in March, 2024. This covered facility is literally just around the corner from us, the same distance as to the beach.

Karen cleans thoroughly with bleach, vinegar and glass cleaner. These are the only chemicals that we allow her to use.

The apartment:

With the exception of the walls, everything in this apartment is new. From the floors, cabinets, appliances, linens, and kitchen items to the mattress, the furniture and the paint, all is new. We have decorated it with a small part of our art collection from Mexico and Guatemala.

Located near the Dolphin Statues on Playa la Ropa, Casa 4 Vientos is a large home that has a private apartment occupying the first floor. It features a private entrance, furnished covered patio, landscaped private front yard, elevated fish pond and a dedicated parking place. Although it is on the first floor, it is 13 steps up to the entrance of the apartment. It is a block and a half from the water-close enough for us to carry our paddle boards down daily without a steep uphill climb.

The large one bedroom one bath queen bed apartment has a well appointed kitchen, with refrigerator/freezer, four burner gas stove with oven, microwave and coffeemaker with loads of counter space. We are cooks and tried to set up the kitchen with the items we need to cook with, and there is service for four of everything. There is a dedicated router with FREE 50 Mbps of secured wifi service. The windows are all fully screened, and there is a safe.

Once-per-week bed linen and twice weekly towel changes are included, along with weekly cleaning of the apartment. We include your drinking water, dish and bath soap, and toilet tissue.

The weekly gardener maintains the exterior areas. You have a large, secure pet friendly private front yard. The yard has been planted with tropical plants, mostly heliconias and gingers providing wonderful flowers. Of course there are several large coconut palms too, an absolute necessity in the tropics. As an added bonus, there is a small elevated pond with blooming water lilies and fish that we invite you to feed.

There is a large AC unit and there are three ceiling fans with lights. There are reading lamps on each night stand, several seating areas, and a private covered patio just outside the front door with seating. We are also providing two Tommy Bahama type beach/backpack chairs and an umbrella. There is also a drying rack for bathing suits and towels.

Lighting is very important, so along with the reading lamps on the night stands, there is an under counter light in the kitchen, and the entry and stairs are very well lit with switches both at the gate and in the apartment. There is even a peep hole in the front gate so you can screen any visitors!

A dedicated, free parking space is available by request on site that will hold any size vehicle.

FLASH!!! We have just gone solar, with enough panels that we are sending our excess electricity production to CFE, Mexico's power company!

Please note: Our check in and check out times are flexible. Just let us know when your flights arrive and leave and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Lovely, private apartment for a couple
This is a wonderful space for a couple. It was spotlessly clean and every bit as attractive as the pictures. Jane and Ray have provided many nice features for a comfortable stay -- beach chairs and umbrellas, drying rack for towels and swimsuits, reading lights on both sides of the bed, night light in the bathroom, coffee and some basic kitchen supplies. We enjoyed breakfast and coffee outdoors. The garden and patio are beautiful, and the space is completely private. Easy walking distance to the beach and to a number of nice restaurants with wonderful seafood. We stayed for a week and walked to a different restaurant each night. Transportation to the Centro is quick, easy and inexpensive on the combis. We'd be happy to stay here again!

Great La Ropa Vacation Spot
First time staying in La Ropa - pleasantly surprised! After five visits to Zihuatanejo - staying in La Noria, El Centro and La Madera - we decided to try La Ropa. We had thought it might be too far away from the center of town but that’s not the case at all. Combis and taxis are plentiful and stop right at our front door. The vibe here us so much more relaxed and the restaurants are fantastic! The beach is gorgeous and the water super clean! We couldn’t be happier here! The apartment is perfect for us - well equipped and nicely maintained. Our hosts are dog lovers and our mid-sized Labradoodle has a beautiful fenced in patio/yard to enjoy the outdoors! Would highly recommend Casa 4 Vientos!

Ideal Location with Consummate Hosts
My husband and I stayed at Casa Cuatro Vientos for ten nights, and we enjoyed our stay tremendously. First, the apartment is completely private with a secure gate, and it is thoughtfully outfitted with everything one needs in order to be comfortable; there’s even cooking oil, salt, and pepper for cooking. As someone who is mosquito bait, I especially appreciated that all of the windows had screens. Anything forgotten at home can be purchased easily at the Oxxo convenience store right across the street. The apartment is located right near one of the entrances (the northern entrance) to Playa la Ropa, and so the walk to the beach is only about one and a half city blocks away. There are merchant stalls selling souvenirs as well as another convenience store on the walk to the beach in case one needs water, bathing suits, beach bags, water floaties or the like. There are also a number of tasty restaurants a short walk away such as Los Adelitos, Jungle Pizza, and Trattoria Gianni as well as the restaurants on the beach such as Triton and Patty’s. Because of the pandemic, we chose to take taxis into town instead of getting on the combi. Since taxis passed by regularly on the road in front of the apartment, hailing a cab was easy. The cost to get to el centro was 60 pesos. What makes the rental truly special, though, are the hosts. Jane and Ray are wonderful people who want their guests to enjoy the apartment and to love Zihuatanejo as much as they do. They live above the rental in their own separate unit, so they are easily accessible if one has questions. On one of the nights of our stay, it rained unexpectedly, and Jane thoughtfully gave us an umbrella to use. Jane and Ray also responded to any emails I sent in a timely manner. They are great, and my husband and I had a lovely time chatting with them and meeting their beautiful dogs, Karma and Zihuatl. We would stay at Casa Cuatro Vientos again in a heartbeat and have already started talking about our next trip back to Zihuatanejo. Muchas gracias, Jane and Ray, and hasta la vista!

About the host

Hosted by Jane and Ray

Host profile image
After spending 6 months a year in Zihuatanejo in an RV, we decided that it was time to move into a house and stay permanently!
We specifically wanted a home with a great view, lots of outdoor living space, and a short walk to the beach-short enough that we could carry our Stand Up Paddle Boards down and back daily without using a cart.
Casa 4 Vientos fits that bill perfectly!
We are now living full time in Zihuatanejo in the upper floors of this great home.

Why they chose this property

We are close to the water, the combi's stop out front and there are a number of great restaurants within 500m of us. Within a kilometer, there are dozens.
We can hear the surf at night and watch the world go by. It's paradise!

What makes this property unique

Casa 4 Vientos is a very easy stroll to the beach with a short uphill walk, NOT STEEP to get back to the house. We can hear the surf, and it's close to everything!
