Casa Kau-Kan is one of the best kept secrets in Mexico. Now hear me out on this. We found this boutique hotel on Booking.com. I specifically was looking for places in Zihuatanejo, because I didn’t want the crowds, the cattle corral and corporate sameness of the Ixtapa all-inclusives. The reviews we read and pictures we saw for Casa Kau-Kan doesn’t do it justice. We were amazed when we first got here. This is a true paradise on earth. If you add the price of the room, plus what you pay for food and drinks, you still pay way less than for an all-inclusive with the all-you-can-eat gorge yourself till you become a stuffed turkey buffets. And the bedrooms are spacious. The place is quiet. The people are friendly. And the beach is untouched by civilization. If you want to recharge your batteries, meditate, and stay away from the noise and the crowds, this place is for you. But if you want to socialize and meet new people, the fellow guests you meet here are so friendly, giving and sharing you’ll leave the hotel with a whole new set of friends! One day I was walking to the beach with my morning coffee and I saw a herd of about 7 or 8 horses running down the beach, followed by a rancher rushing them along. You can also walk down the beach a few minutes and go to a beachside restaurant and eat the best seafood in the world for less than $10. But if you want to stay at the hotel and eat, the food is great - although the menu is limited. If you want a drink, the choices are also limited on drink selections. I recommend ordering the piña coladas. Ask for them “cargados” (with plenty of alcohol). They’re delicious, and after one you’re flying high. Overall, this is my new favorite beach hotel. I’ll be staying here very often, and I recommend you do too.

The delivery time of food ordered. You have to order at least 45 minutes before you want to eat.

I enjoyed the tranquility. I felt like I was the only guest there, only to find out later there were other people staying there. It is quiet. The room was spacious and had a kitchenette. The AC worked perfectly. The room was exceptionally clean. I also enjoyed the food. The restaurant is not heavily advertised, but when traveling alone, it nice to stay in for meals especially after dark. Alfredo arranged safe taxi travel for me. I felt safe and at peace at Casa Kau-Kan. I would absolutely recommend Casa Kau-Kan to friends and family. I would like to stay there again.

Comfortable bed, friendly staff, beautiful view, fridge in room. The AC wasn't working well and breakfast wasn't explained well. Lunch was good but there is limited food in the evening and a very long wait. The pools lovely though!

The place was extremely quiet and perfect for a relaxing time. The property is located right at Playa Larga, so it's a few steps away from the sandy beaches. Pristine facilities and well maintained. The staff was very nice.

The room didn't have a fridge

the situation right on the beach is spectacular… you can feel the pacific. the beach is secluded and not too many travelers find the way there. If you can do without service this is a dreamlike place…

The service is absolutely minimal… the free breakfast is a slice of toast with jam… all restaurants at the beach close at 18.00 … you need a car… the next town with plenty of very good choices is 15 min drive away. Rooms and facilities show some wear and tear…

Great breakfast made to order. Pool was nice and location was remote and quiet.

Wifi wasn’t great but that’s kind of the point of being on vacation. Also bring bug spray! Lol

Excellent breakfast and lunch. Dinner available next door. Huge beach and nice pool. Small, quiet hotel. Very spacious and attractive room.

Fresh fish every day. A huge eight mile beach with nobody on it. There is a fresh water lagoon with interesting wildlife. Hotel is beautiful and very comfortable. The population is fifty so it is certainly not touristy.

I am an ocean swimmer and the water is prone to riptides and tow making it tricky for swimminf

Perfect location

huge balcony beach view very quiet except for the waves crashing
