Set in the stunning Playa La Ropa region of Zihuatanejo, Mexico along a protected bay, lies the luxury Thompson Zihuatanejo. This beachfront hideaway offers golden hour sunsets where the beauty awakens your senses.

Just 20 minutes from Ixtapa- Zihuatanejo International Airport, the property is only five minutes from the resort town of Ixtapa.  

As one of Mexico’s top swimmable beaches, the resort's picturesque stretch of sand is designed for beach walks and a morning swim.

Right now, Thompson Zihuatanejo is offering a Suite Escape Package where guests are treated to a daily breakfast, a bespoke seasonal welcome amenity, and a $150 resort credit (per stay). This credit can be used for a signature massage treatment or stellar meal at the resort's signature Ceniza restaurant.

Named for the Spanish word for Ash, this restaurant is known for its wood-fired cooking techniques. Sit under a palm-thatched palapa in an enchanting open-air ambiance while enjoying a sustainable-sourced Surf and Turf menu. Specialities include scallops with spiny lobster empanadas, soft-shell crab tacos, and woodfire-baked plantain for dessert.

Formerly the Villa del Sol, this resort was redesigned into an upscale modern luxe beachfront resort in 2018. Guest rooms and suites are designed in a lovely blend of mid-century modern and traditional Mexican design. The beautiful parota wood furnishings, plush bedding, Oaxacan clay lighting, handwoven rugs, mosaic tiles and bathroom with a rainshower add an aesthetic appeal.

The art throughout the resort and guest rooms are by local craftsmen enhancing the design elements throughout.

Guests have garden, lagoon or ocean views. Many of the resort rooms and suites feature a private balcony or terrace with ocean views or private plunge pools in the swim-up suites.

This package is ideal for those who enjoy sipping mezcal poolside, nibbling on guacamole and chips, and participating in curated experiences that highlight the culture and rhythm of Zihuatanejo.

There are three thoughtfully designed outdoor pools to stay cool this summer. Guests will find the adults-only infinity pool facing the ocean a quieter sanctuary. This is also a livelier family pool featuring a swim-up bar for cocktails and mocktails, plus an exclusive pool just for swim-up suite guests.

Immersive experiences include private mezcal and tequila tastings, yoga on the beach, cooking classes with the chef to learn how to make regional specialties, and a memorable 'Dinner in the Wild' meal at Parota.

The resort is ideal for those seeking romance, wellness and tranquility in a serene seaside setting. Those looking to explore the area will discover downtown Zihuatanejo shops and restaurants are a short taxi ride away.
