Lots of reviews made it sound like the rooms are dirty, sandy etc - what do you expect? You're in a beach hut right on the sea! Embrace the chat with the guys that work there, enjoy the amazing sea front hammocks. The owner was also kind enough to give us a private bathroom upgrade as the room was available. Your room will get sandy, you will get sweaty, you'll love the cold shower. Our mosquito net had no holes in it. You can also go naked anywhere on the beach or the hotel (most don't), but no one minds! Zipolite was a really relaxing part of our holiday.

The beachfront is noisy at nighttime, but that is Mexico!

The location is perfect, you can’t ask for a better spot!! The team that works there are amazing people, super helpful and nice. It is nice and quiet bungalows, that you can enjoy naked and go from the beach to your bed without getting dressed ever!!

They are in the middle of reforms so there are stuff that is missing or not well, but this doesn’t make the place noise, you only heard the sea.

Amaaaazing location right on the beach. Super lovely staff. Loved all the hammocks and lounge spots. Clothing optional. Mosquito nets over the beds were much appreciated.

The wifi was very spotty. Luckily there's a great co-working space less than a 10 min walk away. Also some mosquitoes about, but if you're right on the beach, the breeze was normally strong enough to keep them away. No kitchen facilities.

The staff were all very sweet and made the best margaritas in zipolite ;) I loved being right on the beach and in the centre of town. The cabana with sea view and balcony was cute, peaceful. I felt very relaxed. Hammocks in the shade outside. There was a powerful fan in the room which was a bit loud but worked well in the humidity

The bedding was a bit threadbare and not the best quality. Would be better to have cushions for the sunbeds.

Amazing little gem right at the centre of Zipolite’ beach front. Very laidback atmosphere. We booked ourselves one of the newer beach view rooms with a basic private bathroom and had an amazing time. If you’re looking for a quiet place that is still close to all the hustle and bustle that Zipolite has to offer, then look no further.

Amazing and friendly staff, unbeatable location and definitely your go to option if you want value for your money.

Would love to see the bathrooms improve just a little bit, maybe painting the walls or separating the shower from the toilet. Water from the shower gets everywhere and it gives me the ick to step in the bathroom like that.

Location

The basic rooms are VERY basic. No privacy as walls made of wood with gaps between. Fan was loud and we weren't able to change the setting! We moved to the upstairs room which was nicer, however there was a horrible smell every now and then from the drains in the bathroom. Fan was quieter and adjustable. Didn't get to see imside new rooms at the front but they looked nice.

The view from our room was incredible, it was nice to have beach chairs and hamacas available from the guests. It was great to have a mosquito net for the bed.

A bigger or greater fan in the room would have been desirable, due there are no windows in the room we didn´t want to open the windows wood doors while we were sleeping.

Perfect location! Cannot get a better location in Zipolite than Ballelita. The price was also very cheap and great value for money. Alex (the owner) and the guys are very friendly and make you feel welcome. We also loved our room over looking the beach.

No complaints although bathroom facilities could be slightly improved.

This was my unique and perfect Oaxacan Pacific Beachfront hotel experience!! I LOVED that my room was rustic and beachfront, and I was serenaded by the sound of the crashing waves 24 hours!! My windows looked out on the majestic waves of the Pacific Ocean!

There was NOTHING which I did not love!
