Construction
Over the 22 years of coming to Zihuat this is the first time staying above Las Gatas. We always run up to the security gates so we were excited about seeing the other side. We’re active and could run, walk or cab the few miles to the beach & town. But we won’t return. I’ve never written a negative review, but felt this time I had to. The good: Beautiful view! Extremely quiet at night. Very peaceful. Roomy. The committee pool is beautiful. We were always alone. I found weights and a yoga mat in the closet 🧘🏻🏋🏻‍♀️ We know the property manager, pool cleaner and driver from other properties and they were great!! The Bad: We were not told there would be a high rise condo under construction (four stories and a one story foundation). It was only a feet away and sadly will completely block 1/3 of the view. The noise was constant during the day. I had to keep my AirPods on during the day and it was hard to work remotely. We learned two more condo units are going to be built. The pool had no Internet service- not for everyone but my husband and I both own businesses & need it. Not a deal breaker. Since we are so isolated we planned to cook most our meals. The kitchen is not set up for cooking. 3 bad Knives, no grater, broken can openers, limited dishes, etc. Doors in bathroom and laundry room are awkward- to get to the toilet in one bathroom you have to manipulate the doors around the shower edge and you could twist your ankle. The door stoppers had to be lifted to close doors. Not a huge issue it was just annoying.

The place was beautiful. We had an issue with little ants everywhere and a sewer smell in master bedroom. The smell may be coming from stagnant water from dipping pool. I only wish this was closer to town.

Luxury in Paradise
The property was exactly as described and pictured - except that the owner had very recently completed a total remodeled of the kitchen. The view from the living room, bedrooms and master bathroom were breathtaking. The condo administrator and other on-site staff were incredibly helpful. Being on a high hill, there was always a pleasant cooling breeze throughout the condo, and the air temperature was often a refreshing 5 degrees cooler than in the central part of town. The property is in a high-end, gated, beautifully maintained, safe and quiet development. Incredible stars at night and beautiful sunsets over the Pacific. The condo was everything I had hoped for.

Una Casa con Vista
We recently returned from a 5 week stay at The Villas del Vigía in Zihuatanejo. We have been to Zihuatanejo several times but this was our first stay at this property. As the listing describes, the 2 bedroom condo is in a small condo complex with expansive views of Zihuatanejo Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The views are truly breathtaking. Situated high above Playa Ropa in a quiet gated community we opted to rent a car for our stay as the location is remote and requires a lot of walking or cab rides to get to the main beach or town. The condo is spacious and comfortable for 4-6 people and is equipped with everything you need for your stay. The condo is open, allowing for beautiful ocean breezes but also for easy access to critters, so beware! There is a lovely infinity pool with lounge chairs for the exclusive use of the condominium owners and we were the only ones who used it! There are tennis and pickle ball courts as well but it was too hot to play! The property is well maintained and Filiberto, Aurora and Noe were quick to respond if we had any questions or needed anything. The property owner is also quick to respond to emails. Zihuatanejo is one of our favourite spots in Mexico and if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing location with amazing views away from the crowds I would highly recommend this property.

Why they chose this property

My husband I were married in Zihuatanejo in 2007. This town means the world to us and we found ourselves visiting over and over again. We finally decided to begin the search for our second home and immediately fell in love with the Villas at Cerro del Vigia. The views are, without a doubt, the best in town. We hope to make it our full time home within the next few years.

What makes this property unique

Arriba de la Bahia will offer all the comforts and technologies of home, with views you can't believe are real. The full kitchen will allow you to bring home fresh fruits and veggies as well as cook up the day's catch after a long day of fishing. It is completely secure 24 hours a day and the gate can call cabs at any time to take you shopping, to the beach or out for a night on town. If you are into an invigorating hike, there is a hiking path to Las Gatas Beach that will take about 15 minutes to tackle. The open air showers are my favorite feature and the personal infinity, plunge pool is inviting any time of the day or night.
