Playa La Ropa

10/10 Excellent

My Mum and I had just completed a very busy 2 weeks in the lovely country of Mexico and needed 2 days down time before boarding the plane for our arduous 30 hour journey home. We couldn't have selected a better place to rest our weary travellers' heads! Spectacular all the way around. In no way ostentatious but we felt deliciously spoilt each minute we were there. With a bird's eye view of the beautiful Zihuatenejo Bay, we enjoyed sumptuous food prepared by the finest and service second to none....
