Villas Kaukan 502 "El Escondite" - Your Boho Chic Hideaway in the Heart of Zihua | Condo in Zihuatanejo
1 Bedroom Condo in Playa la Madera, Zihuatanejo
Summary:
Tucked above the shimmering Zihuatanejo Bay, El Escondite is your private escape - a luxe one -bedroom penthouse designed by the iconic Zozaya Arquitectos.
Think breezy elegance, jaw-dropping views, and effortless comfort, all wrapped up in bold bohemian style.
From the moment you walk in, the wow-factor is real: soaring lines, natural textures and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that makes it feel like you're living in the sky.
Whether you're here to hide away or live it up, this boho-luxe penthouse is your invitation to slow down, sink in, and savor the magic of Zihuatanejo.
The Space:
Retractable glass doors open to a spacious terrace made for lounging, dining, or catching those epic Zihua sunsets through the signature porthole window. And the beach is just outside the door, steps away...
Fuel your days with fresh juice or a perfect cappuccino in a fully equipped gourmet kitchen — complete with high-end appliances, dishwasher, convection oven, and a super-automatic espresso machine (yes, it grinds and froths for you!).
Wind down in the air-conditioned bedroom, where a king-size bed and cool organic sheets promise deep rest and sweet dreams. Stream, share, or totally disconnect — with high-speed WiFi and a Bose wireless speaker, you’re in control of the vibe.
El Escondite is all about curated calm. Elevator access makes life easy, and the beach is just steps away via a private path.
Guest Access:
Head to the rooftop for next-level lounging: a teardrop infinity pool, shaded loungers, a brand-new grill, and panoramic ocean views that will make you forget what day it is.
Bonus: fast WiFi even up top.
* Beachfront Privileges: Direct access to La Madera Beach – no need for long walks or cab rides to the beach.
*Rooftop Pool Priority: While shared, your proximity means claiming the best lounge chairs first.
* Elevator Key: Skip stairs entirely (rare in Zihua) – critical for sunset champagne runs.
*Parking Included: Rare perk in Zihua – secure spot for rental cars (free, no fine print)
The Neighborhood:
* Dual-Access Superpower
* Beachside: Step barefoot from the villa’s private gate onto La Madera’s golden sand.
*Street Side: Exit uphill to grab taxis (always waiting) or stroll cobblestone streets to cafes like Café Marina (best churros in town).
*Why This Beats “Regular” Beachfront Rentals
Most Zihua properties force you to choose: either easy beach access or walkable streets. Villas Kau Kan gives you both – morning swims without a 10-minute trek, and instant access to taxis, groceries, and nightlife.
Nestled at the exact intersection of La Madera and La Ropa districts, Villas Kau Kan sits where Zihuatanejo’s soul splits into two vibes:
*To the North: The lively pulse of La Madera Beach – fishermen hauling dorado at dawn, toes-in-sand seafood grills, and sunsets soundtracked by mariachis.
*To the South: The serene luxury of Playa La Ropa – powder-soft sand, upscale beach clubs, and turquoise waves for paddleboarding.
* Walkability Score: 9.8/10 (Yes, We’re Bragging)
* 5 Minutes North: Dive into Zihua’s beating heart – the Central Market (handmade textiles, mango-chile paletas) and Plaza Kioto.
* 8 Minutes South: Arrive at Playa La Ropa for snorkeling or a coconut-shrimp lunch at La Perla.
* 12 Minutes West: Wander the Malecón boardwalk – sip micheladas while watching local kids backflip off the pier.
Closest Attractions You’ll Actually Care About
*Partenón del Negro Durazo (3-min walk): Snap worthy shots of these cliffside ruins glowing at sunset.
* Fish Market at Playa Principal (6-min stroll): Handpick red snapper from morning boats – grill it on your villa’s BBQ.
* Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande (10-min walk): Nerd out on pre-Hispanic artifacts between beach naps.
Getting Around:
Walkability Score 10/10: 15 mins to downtown’s craft markets, 20 mins to Playa La Ropa’s powdery sands.
Steep Hill Hack: Taxis wait out front for $3 rides uphill (we’d walk down, taxi back too).
Interaction with Guests:
“Your Wish, Our Command”
Profesional local Hosts: Zero intrusions, but 24/7 availability for last-minute reservations, boat tours, or emergency guacamole fixes.
Concierge Magic: Ask us to pre-stock your villa with champagne, arrange private chefs, or book Day of the Dead cemetery tours.
