Contemporary Beachfront Luxury at our Zihuatanejo Resort

Named for the Spanish word for ash, Ceniza puts a spin on traditional wood-fired cooking techniques in this balmy beachfront setting. Under a palm-thatched palapa, you’ll be enchanted with its open-air ambiance and enticed by a sustainably-sourced menu of Mexican surf and turf dishes. Enjoy specialties like scallops and spiny lobster empanadas and soft-shell crab tacos, paired with woodfire-baked plantain for dessert. The possibilities are virtually limitless at our onsite Playa la Ropa restaurant. Celebrate a special occasion as a couple or with your closest friends, and we’ll take care of the details with our personalized service. All are available upon reservation.

Whether dining on the beach, by the pool or at our alfresco restaurant, you’ll enjoy seasonal ingredients prepared in modern Mexican style at this oceanfront all-day bar. Wake up to refreshing tropical fruit breakfast bowls and Zihua benedicts for breakfast, then mark your midday with whole local spiny lobster and grilled cheese ribeye tacos. Share the seafood hibachi grill under a canopy of lights for the perfect dinner to cap the evening. Thursday HAO Grill Out: Enjoy fresh seafood and premium cuts of meat, displayed and selected to be grilled oceanside against the background of crashing La Playa Ropa waves while live music envelops your culinary adventure. Saturday Taco Experience: Settle into a beachfront location where guests are invited to relax oceanside and dine on lobster, octopus, pork pibil, and short rib authentic tacos with handmade rolled tortillas. This authentically Zihuatanejo experience is followed by dessert, where decadent churro or cookies and cream taco invite you to indulge.
