Description
Casa Monarca was built with an off the grid solar system to provide comfort with a low carbon dioxide footprint. This Villa is located at the top of the hill in La Ropa, Zihuatanejo, because of this it provides unobstructed views of both Las Gatas beach and La Ropa beach, while giving the convenience of being only 900 m (0.6 miles) from the beach. Casa Monarca gets a constant breeze so there is no need to worry about those pesky mosquitoes.
Five ensuite bedrooms are spread across a large multi-leveled 700 m2 lot with lots of green space living between. The secluded location provides with privacy and natural beauty. Once fully grown, the gardens will provide with local fruits such as lime, mango, guanavana, banana, pomegranate and orange. Casa Monarca has two pools, terraces and green areas for maximum relaxation during your stay, not to mention the tropical weather all year round with average temperatures around 25-30ËšC during the coldest months.
Casa Monarca has five bedrooms. Each suite is uniquely decorated and designed with tranquility in mind. The master suite is a large bedroom with a queen size bed, vaulted ceiling, a cozy living room with resting area, t.v., fans, AC and two twin size sofa beds, sleeps 2 adults and 2 children/teenagers comfortably. Ensuite bathroom contains a double sink countertop with a double shower. This bedroom has its own private infinity pool with a terrace featuring a 180 degree view of Zihuatanejo Bay, playa "La Ropa" overlooking the vast Mexican Pacific Ocean.

Please read the following before requesting a booking
We welcome you to stay at our home. Please note, we are not a hotel. We have built our home to encompass our strong beliefs in conserving energy and leaving as small of a footprint as we can to preserve the environment for our future generations. We, personally, do not have daily housekeeping services or an onsite cook. We can, however, put you in touch with locals who can provide these services, should you request them.
Our home is built to rely completely on solar energy to run the electrical aspects. Although we have a lot of energy, it is unlike traditional power that is unlimited. We only have what is stored. We therefore encourage that if you stay at our home, you follow the same ideology as we do, i.e. turning off the lights and fans when not in the room.
We have 4 rooms in total. Two of which have ocean/pool views and two more with garden views. Each room has its own ensuite bathroom and can accommodate between 3-4 people. Although we normally sleep using fans only, all rooms are equipped with A/C units. Keeping with our philosophy, the units are on a timer to conserve energy. We do have a crib also available.
The land surrounding our home is currently not build on, which gives great privacy and surrounds the property with a lush jungle. The area is home to many different species, including a variety of birds, geikos, and insects. It is not uncommon to see insects and birds come over the wall to drink the water from the pool, as it is the only source of water in the area.
Finally we ask that you treat our home as you would your own and hope you enjoy it as much as our family does!
This Villa sleeps a maximum of 14 people in 4 bedrooms.
Recommendations for families that have not traveled to Zihuatanejo before and have not rented with us.
Spread indoor insecticide in all rooms in a daily fashion to keep the bugs away. Our bi-weekly fumigation may not be enough.
Please Turn OFF the lights / AC / Fans of any EMPTY room.
Enjoy your stay !

Just like advertised
The weather in Zihua was hot during the day, but fabulously cool at night. The house itself is beautiful and beds are very comfortable. The walk up the road was steep, but was a good workout. Sergio, the host attendant, made mention the road was being fixed to decrease the slope. The property was very large. There were bananas on the trees, but were not quite ready for us to eat yet. We were pleasantly surprised with how crystal clear the pool water was, especially in comparison to most hotel pools. The walk down to La Ropa beach is very close and we even discovered a walking trail to get us to Las Gatas beach from La Ropa! We were able to snorkel in Las Gatas beach and we were lucky to see lots of colorful fishes by the Jesus Christ statue that is immersed in the ocean. Looking forward to returning!
