We apent a week at this secluded hideaway and can only describe it as paradise on earth. There are 11 suites in this botique hotel that is tucked a few miles from town along a pristine beach. The owner is also a cook at a local resturant and the food available at the Casa is from the menu of the... More

Just returned from a four-night stay at Casa Kau Kan and couldn't have been more pleased. The location is wonderfully secluded and peaceful, and our concierge / host Antonio was a pleasure. The food was fresh and tasty, and the suite was nicely decorated and well-maintained. I felt the price was more than fair considering the surroundings and level of... More

I'm a bit reluctant to write a good review. The reason is, I'm selfish and don't want the word to get out about this little gem! Selfishness aside, here goes: This place is amazing!! We spent 1 week here with absolutely no agenda. It was perfect. One small snag- there was to be an arranged taxi to pick us up... More

Sorry such a late entry but after reading various reviews of other properties I felt like this one deserved some attention. I spent 1 week in the honeymoon suite, an unbelievable deal--it was beautiful! The view from the private balcony jacuzzi was amazing and like no other I've seen. The taxi ride from the airport to the hotel was a... More

First time to Mexico for me and my bride. Don't know hardly any Spanish. Watch out when you get off the plane and need a cab, they'll swarm you. Don't go for the "great deal" unless you want to go to some sales pitch later on. To much worry about whether they would follow through with their end of the... More

We normally stay in Troncones - Manzanillo over Christmas. Oddly this year it was booked up after 12/24 so we had to find another hotel to stay for the second half of our trip and ended up in far south Zihuatanejo - Playa Larga to be specific. Going in, we had never stayed in Zihua before so from the start... More

If you are looking to stay in a room that is comfortably air conditioned with cool running water in your shower, then DON'T go to Casa Kau Kan. Yes, the place looks great online but it's not what is advertised. The area is VERY remote and not where you want to be if you travel to Zihua or Ixtapa. You... More

Casa Kau Kan was a terrific stay! I was a little nervous about pre paying for a hotel that I hadn't seen except for on the internet. Trying to get a hold of reservations on the telephone was difficult and frustrating. Judith Whitehead's agency was in only at certain times and returning emails was a little sketchy but we got...

Absolutely wonderful! The Casa Kau-Kan is the perfect place for a quiet and relaxing vacation. The rooms are very nice and the service from Antonio, Pedro and the entire staff was above average. Because the hotel has only ten rooms, the staff is able to provide excellent personal service. We often felt as if we were guests at someone's home!... More

Wow- this trip has convinced me what a great service tripadvisor is. The praise for Casa Kau-Kan is spot-on. We were so glad we stayed there on the more remote and rustic Playa Larga after seeing the crowds, vendors, parasailing, and banana-boat action on Playa La Ropa. Highlights of our trip included: - walking down the beach for lunch at... More
