    Charming ocean-side retreat

    We visited just after a huge storm hit the area. The road down to the hotel is unpaved for the last half kilometre, and is rutted. Our little rental car did okay on it. As for the hotel, while the public areas were lovely and the place has good bones, the room needed updating: curtains, bedspread, and lighting in the room need to be refreshed, along with the chairs on the private deck. We appreciated the insect screens on many of the windows, though a couple were torn and in need of replacement.

    This hotel is a little oasis right on the ocean. While there are houses on one side, planting help it to feel private. It has a lovely pool (long enough to swim laps), well-tended landscaping, a restaurant with a limited, but tasty, menu, and a charming and helpful staff. Our room was tucked out of the way. The most wonderful thing about the room, aside from the ocean view, was the gorgeous, intricate mosaic mural that serves as a headboard. (There was another stunning mural on the shared landing outside the room). When we first arrived there was a fresh breeze off the water, and we opened the sliding windows toward the water with confidence since there were screens on them. Later, the aircon worked okay to cool the room. At night, the double-paned windows muffled the ocean just right: we could still hear it, but it sounded distant and we slept soundly. Plenty of parking.

    Ocean is very rough with rip tides so you cannot even bob out there. The door heights in the rooms are very low. Both of us hit our heads a few times. The bottom sheets did not stay on the mattresses at all. And the top sheet was a queen on a king bed. There was no fridge in the room as they wanted you to buy all food and drinks there. They had nice music playing by the pool but the same playlist the whole 4 days. 😂

    Pool and ocean was great. The beds were nice and soft. The serving and cleaning staff and the cooks were very friendly and worked hard to please. The morning cappachinos were great.

    The room was just that. A room. No coffee maker, no TV (which we never turn on anyhow, but others might miss it), no microwave or any way at all to make or reheat one's own snacks or light meals.

    The staff were absolutely great. We arrived in a torrential rain, which was quite unexpected for the area. Nonetheless the young man who checked us in rolled up his sleeves and helped us slog through the water to our room with vast amounts of baggage. We were staying the week and had brought a full size cooler to supplement our meals, as otherwise we would have had to go out for everything we desired to eat or drink, except water. He stepped up again after the rain had made deep furrows in the road, making it difficult to drive. He suggested we park at the top of the hill at a sister property until it was clear there would not be a complete washout while we were there! And again we were assisted when we checked out a week later, stopped for another bag of ice for our cooler, and our car electronics went haywire. Eventually everything shut down, this in a town without a mechanic... We contacted the property to ask if they could suggest a tow truck option to the nearest large town 45 minutes away, but instead they sent out one of the administrators. He checked our battery, it was nearly dead. He provided a charge, the electronics returned to normal, and we were on our way. Really above and beyond expectations! The location was fantastic, right on Mermejita Beach and easily walkable to two other beaches nearby, Our room looked across a small garden directly onto the surf. We could also sit on an elevated terrace directly overlooking the beach where we could watch the evening surfers, and sunsets. The pool was pristine and very welcome in the heat and humidity. I do not know how we could have withstood the heat had we not had that pool available to cool ourselves down. Our room was large and attractive. The bed and pillows were comfortable. We mostly just used the ceiling fan, but a few times when we turned on the a/c it cooled quickly, quietly, and efficiently. A restaurant is onsite, available all day, except on Friday.

    Maybe the curtains on the room don't provide to much privacy, as you can see inside the room at night.

    Our room was on the first floor and we wish this could have been avoided as there were already steps on the property. There was no hand rail to get in and out of the pool and we would have preferred to have had that safety feature, however-I did just put a chair close by to steady myself! Personally I could have done without the music that was played in the bar area-not necessary.

    This was a lovely peaceful stop for us to sit back and rest and enjoy. Directly on the beach we truly felt we had 'got away from it all'. Breakfast, drinks, snacks and evening meal were available and were delicious.

    The electricity was sometimes failing and the internet was outright slow. The restaurant is not recommended. We ordered a simple breakfast, which took more than an hour to serve, with only seven other people in the restaurant who had ordered equally simple items. When finally they served our food, it was already cold.

    The place is right on the beach, with a large terrace/restaurant and a decent pool. Rooms are spacious and the private terrace provided a fabulous sea view.

    We had a lot of mosquitos & there were no mosquito nets over the bed. One of the screens in the bathroom was open & we both got lots of bites. Recommended to the staff that they fix it. But they should also add nets over the bed. And a hammock on the terrace would have been great.

    The location of Casa Ofelia is exceptional. Right on the Mermejita beach below Punta Cometa with a fabulous view of the sunset. The rooms were spacious, the pool was big enough to swim laps (very unusual), the restaurant had great food. Our room had an ocean view++ & a big terrace++.

    It is quite a walk to the city center of Mazunte (10-15 minutes), but we didn't mind cause then at least we would get some exercise after all the chilling at the pool. :) Also, even though we thought everything was very beautiful and good, I would say it is still a bit on the expensive side for what you get.

    Amazing place at a quiet beach Mermejita. The swimming pool was amazing and beautiful. Food was great and service was good! We really enjoyed it here!

    There’s really nothing I didn’t like, but one needs to be prepared that it is a walk up a pretty good sized hill, and back down the other side of it to get into the commercial touristy part of Mazunte and to get to the beach in Mazunte. You could spend all your time at the hotel, but it would be remiss to not enjoy the town as well and the beach there is lovely. You can take taxis if you aren’t up for the walk which can be very hot but if you’re a reasonable fitness level it’s not too difficult.

    Quiet and peaceful except for the construction it was going on next-door. However, you can’t really stop progress. It looks like it’s going to be another beautiful beach property. This is for Mexico and I think it’s a more reasonable price because it’s a little bit out of Mazunte. It’s not perfect but the service is excellent and it’s pretty close to perfect. The pool is magnificent and a welcome rest from getting beaten up in the waves of the ocean.! It’s very relaxing and there’s lots of lounge chairs for anyone who wants the lounge.

    Nothing about the hotel. But check how the roads leading to the location are. If there was a storm recently, there may be slides and bumps which make a compact or sedan car have a tough time getting there.

    The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is beautiful and the room is clean and comfortable. Best place to watch the sunset!
