There’s really nothing like a meal in our restaurant. The sense of quiet soaring at the edge of our terrace. The fresh food from farms and fishing boats around Zihua. The connections with one another. This place was built for moments to remember.
LA ROPA BEACH
The best beach in Zihuatanejo is just down a winding hillside road. La Ropa Beach is legendary. It ‘s bent palms over warm, sheltered saltwater. It’s sparkling new resorts, long-lived iconic hotels, and local Zihua families, mingling together easily over a long and ambling stretch of sand. Body surfing with the kids, massages in the breeze, long walks and friendly talks with old mariachis. There’s no place quite like La Ropa beach. And it’s right in our backyard.
ROOM TO RECONNECT
Each room at Tentaciones is steeped with personality – each, like the parts of a real house, has its own shape, its own features, its own balcony style and bathroom and bed. And each provides unique moments of magic, from first light to the setting sun. Connect. Enjoy. Settle your soul with us.
FROM THE SOIL OF ZIHUA TO AN INFINITE SKY
Tentaciones was built to an elevated architectural principle, rooted in Zihuatanejo’s natural landscape: every stone, every beam, every piece of plaster here reflects the earth of Zihua, its plants, and its palette of colors. And these built forms reach, up here on this hillside, for the blue sky that shines over this bay. From the earth below, to infinity above, so to speak.
CATCH THE MORNING LIGHT • DURANTE LOS PRIMEROS RAYOS DEL SOL
Every morning in Zihua, down on the beach, dozens of wooden boats slide up onto the sand, heavy with fresh fish. Before long, the fish market comes to life in the early sunlight. Ice buckets emptying, the calls of the fishmongers, people laughing. Local chefs, taco stands, and families alike come down, all milling among the boats to gather their daily catch.
For us in Zihua, it´s a timeless ritual – simply part of living here. But for visitors, the fish market is an essential local experience. This is the real town, unpolished. Friendly, warm and real, it´s a Mexico that few visitors get to see.
Cada mañana en Zihuatanejo, a orilla de la playa, docenas de “lanchas” de madera se deslizan sobre la arena, cargadas de pescado fresco. En poco tiempo, el mercado de pescado cobravida duranteprimeros rayos del sol. Las llamadas de los vendedores de pescado, personas riendo, Chefs locales, puestos de tacos, y familias enteras bajan por igual.
Para nosotros los habitantes, todo esto, es un ritual atemporal - simplemente es parte de la vida diaria. Pero para los visitantes, el mercado de pescado es una experiencia esencial. Zihuatanejo es una maravilla, un lugar, sin pulir, acogedor, cálido y real, es una parte deMéxico que pocos llegan a conocer.
