Home - North America & Caribbean - Mexico - The Tides, Zihuatanejo

Zihuatanejo’s sun-kissed beauty provides the backdrop to this stunning hotel, rich with all the luxury trappings of a state-of-the-art hotel and hugging the perfect shoreline of Playa La Ropa. Treat your feet to a stroll along The Tides’ thousand foot stretch of private beach, the gentle lapping of the waves distracting you momentarily from the swaying of palm trees and the idyllic sound of coconuts dropping to the ground. This is the Mexican beach paradise that will take you to a world a new-found bliss.

location

On Mexico’s Pacific coast, Zihuatanejo is the idyllic beachside town that gently murmurs paradise with its golden sands, cobalt blue Pacific waters and slow pace of life. The amenities of the town’s craft and food markets are just a few minutes’ drive away, but for exquisite food and intimate bars, The Tides offers bountiful choice. La Villa restaurant offers a refined, candle-lit ambience, perfect for romantic meals on those dreamy Pacific nights, serving Mexican and seafood favourites. For a slightly bouncier atmosphere, La Marea has got it covered and its bar serves all manner of exciting tropical cocktails. The barman at Coral Bar has some wicked secret recipe cocktails (if you’re brave enough) and The Tides even offer a special ‘lunch on the beach’ service for a lazy lunch on the sand.

your room

The seventy rooms and suites offer awesome luxury with their adobe-inspired villas nestled amongst manicured tropical gardens. Each accommodation is unique, with individual features like twisting tree-trunk beams and palm tree fringed terraces. Coloured with crisp whites, the rooms exude a Pacific feel and boast modern iHome docking stations amongst all the now expected super-modern amenities. The bathrooms are lavished in indigenous marble and the all-out luxury of The Tides suite treats its guests to their own private infinity pool, outdoor tropical-style shower, and even (if desired) your own personal butler. Can’t say more luxurious than that.

why we like it

The incredible luxury of the hotel’s rooms and service is something we at Black Tomato place high on our luxury check-list, and when there’s also a sumptuous spa for all your pampering needs, an infinity pool with Pacific views and high-class restaurants and entertainment, The Tides is ticking all our Black Tomato boxes. We also love that all the activities are so close, such as diving, snorkelling, horse riding, surfing and all manner of water sports, all afforded by the spectacular location that is Zihuatanejo. For Pacific beach paradise, Zihuatanejo is it.
