The Tides Zihuatanejo

Superlatives only hint at the unique charms of The Tides Zihuatanejo, a discerning traveler's favorite since its previous incarnation as Mexico's best-kept secret, Hotel Villa del Sol. The 35 guest rooms and 35 luxury suites, no two alike, nestle perfectly in adobe-inspired casitas connected by tropical gardens and gentle waterfalls. Three swimming pools expand the water theme, including a beachside infinity pool that seems to flow into the Pacific.

Corporate events and business meetings also flow effortlessly at The Tides Zihuatanejo, which offers two boardrooms and a 60-capacity meeting room filled with coastal charm. In addition to windsurfing, diving, and deep-sea fishing, other popular incentives include golf, tennis, horseback riding, yoga, exploring nearby Ixtapa, and just plain daydreaming while enjoying a spectacular Pacific sunset.
