Facing Tangolunda Bay, this Mediterranean-style hillside resort with Mexican accents has a 300-meter (980-foot) beach that is exclusive to resort guests because the terrain cuts off public access.
The Camino Real Zaashila offers 148 spacious guestrooms and suites in 2- and 3-story white, Mediterranean-style buildings with primary-color accents and no elevators. The hotel is terraced into a hillside above the beach and interspersed with flowering gardens. All rooms and suites have furnished balconies overlooking Tangolunda Bay.
Decor and furnishings include tan-marble floors and bathrooms, rose-marble vanities, wrought-iron dining sets, rattan reading chairs with footstools, ivory-colored furniture with green accents, white walls, brightly colored ceilings, and pastel fabrics. Rooms are cooled by ceiling fans or air conditioning.
During winter, spring, and summer school holidays, complimentary, supervised activities are provided for children ages 5-12 in an air-conditioned room and outdoors. An air-conditioned room off the lobby contains two computers with high-speed Internet connections that are complimentary for the first 15 minutes. Open-air massage (surcharge) is available under a thatched-roof palapa. A hilltop fitness center contains cardio machines, a Universal gym, free weights, and an outdoor plunge pool.
