Reviews

Luxury Living on the Beach I never write reviews, but must share our 2 week experience.
Casa De Oro commands one of the choicest locales in all of Troncones.

THE COMPOUND:
We drove through tall woven gates into a lush Paradise with palm trees, exotic plants and stone art.
Caretakers Jose and Amadelia gave a warm welcome and escorted us past a glorious fountain. We entered through the main home gates into Grand Palapa living. Spaces are tiered flowing down to open aired living area under a giant palapa. The kitchen has a large 6 burner gas range and is equipped with everything you need, even basic pantry items. A long tiled bar counter is perfect for laying out meals. The dining area sports a table that can seat more than 8 people, from here you step down to the living area with 3 sofas and a hammock. Then step directly onto the luxurious pool deck with 2 more large shade palapas, 8 cushy lounges, and another dining table allowing for everyone to spread out. The first floor pool deck and living spaces look out to the beach and adorable bay. The pool is large with an infinity edge. No one can view into the property because it is elevated offering the utmost in privacy. There is a hidden gated stairway stepping down to the private beach yard in front of the Casa. Of course, this is where you find the outdoor shower for rinsing yourself and boogie boards.
There are 4 California King Master Suites with En Suite Bathes. Two are connected to the Grand Palapa, the other two (Bungalows) are nestled among the grounds. Perfect for parents with children that may be worried about direct pool deck access. Our group fluctuated between 4 and 8 people depending on when family and friends could join us. To top things off……literally….there is full service bar and lounge area on the top Palapa floor offering gentle ocean breezes, sea views and sunsets.
This was a fun space to sip on Margaritas & party, or read and nap.

LUXURY AMENITIES:
Air conditioning in every suite.
The mattresses are devine and the sheets had to be 400+ thread count. Towels were soft and fluffy.
The entire estate is well manicured and very clean. Jose can fix anything, and arrange for the fish vendor or the fruit/veggie man to drop by for your shopping pleasure. The produce variety was amazing and Bacdyn drops are provided at the Casa for food safety. Amadelia cleaned our rooms everyday except Sunday.
Purified water is offered in every suite and the public areas.
Ceiling fans throughout.
Lockboxes in every suite for passports and cash, large closets.
The 2 suites connected to the main Palapa are huge and can sleep more than 2 people.
A separate drink fridge and blue tooth stereo.
A separate barbecue palapa.
A landline to the local restaurants and stores.
WIFI, which I found to be the same speed as the local 3G.
Interiors and exteriors are tastefully decorated with gorgeous local art, hand woven textiles and handmade furniture.
The property can accommodate just a couple or a large family get together.

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION:
This is a very private property with views of greenscape and the beach. Yet, you are still in the pueblo with a short walk to everything.
We spent our mornings walking the beach and body surfing, then back to the Casa for a dip in the pool and another breakfast.
Late mornings/afternoons were spent at the local farmer’s market & craft fair, boutiques, visiting with local expats and driving to nearby pueblos.
In the evening we enjoyed strolls on the beach to all the restaurants (there are now 37) and a Tortuga Sanctuary.
Bedtime found us sleeping with the windows open (screened) dozing off to the rhythms of the ocean = Heaven!

WE WILL RETURN:
Hands down we are coming back. Casa De Oro offered one of the most restorative, relaxing vacations we have experienced in years! - 2/19/2019 

Excelente estadía en un lugar maravilloso El lugar es precioso y está dentro de Marloth park. Es una casa enorme con todas las comodidades. Pasamos unos días increíbles en familia, sintiéndonos en el medio de la naturaleza. Lugar seguro, si o si es necesario estar en auto. Hay algunas tiendas cercas. - 1/01/2019 

Longing to Return There are first class resorts and then there is Casa De Oro! Wow, from the attentive Tina to the wonderful house staff Jose and Anadelia, this place is a piece of heaven in paradise! The Casa is beautifully laid out with amazing artwork! Everything is comfortable and the pool is large. The delicious restaurants footsteps away and numerous beach activities kept our family busy for the week! I honestly had no complaints except that we had to leave this oasis. This place will make you feel like a king and I highly recommend it! Cheers! - 2/01/2019 

NO Recomendable Casa de oro es una de las muchas propiedades existentes en playa troncones que se rentan a los vacacionistas. Esta villa cuenta en su primer nivel con un área principal donde encontrarás la cocina (estufa, cafetera, microondas, licuadora, vasos, platos, ollas, sartenes, garrafón de agua potable, dos refrigeradores), sonido estéreo, medio baño, un comedor para 8 personas, una barra con dos bancos, una sala y hamaca; ( en los cajones de la mesita de centro hay cartas y juegos de mesa para una velada amena), pero el toque distintivo es que todo lo anterior está dentro de una palapa, es decir en un área abierta por lo que no existe aire acondicionado, sólo ventiladores. En esa misma zona encontrarás la alberca con borde infinito y la salida trasera donde verás unos escalones que te conducen primeramente a una regadera exterior y a su vez a un camino que te da acceso a la playa, este detalle es genial ya que las demás propiedades (con excepción de casa luna del mar) no cuentan con escaleras para descender a la playa por lo tanto tienes que hacer un esfuerzo adicional si quieres entrar o salir al mar. Al lado de la alberca encontrarás un dormitorio principal amplísimo que cuenta con cama King, ventilador y aire acondicionado así como baño toallas y jabón. En el segundo piso se encuentra una recámara exactamente igual que la primera y en el tercer piso hay una zona para disfrutar de unos exquisitos atardeceres, o mecerte en su hamaca al arrullo de las olas del mar. Existe también un área accesoria que cuenta con un asador (carbón o leña no incluidos) y dos bungalows; en el interior de cada uno encontrarás una cama King, ventilador, aire acondicionado y un baño completo así como garrafones de agua potable. Lo mejor del lugar es el matrimonio encargado de cuidar la propiedad: Enedelia realiza la limpieza de la propiedad y además es una gran cocinera, puedes llegar a un arreglo económico para que te prepare desde una sola comida o varias, gracias a esa flexibilidad ella nos preparó langosta, camarones y pez vela deliciosos José es el mejor amigo que te puedas encontrar, es súper amable, servicial y siempre está dispuesto a procurar que tu estancia sea placentera, pues no sólo le da mantenimiento a la alberca y al resto de la casa sino que además conoce dónde, cómo y cuándo puedes conseguir los insumos que necesites: por ejemplo nos consiguió langosta, y le llama a los vendedores de fruta, verdura y mariscos que pasan casi diario a la puerta de la casa y también nos proporcionó unos deliciosos cocos que él mismo cortó y abrió (de paso arregló unos focos fundidos) también sabe sobre los horarios para la liberación de tortugas y si quieres un paseo a caballo o un masaje, él conoce a las personas indicadas. En una sola palabra Casa de Oro es sinónimo de DESCANSO pues a diferencia de un resort, no hay restricción de horario para usar la alberca, no estás lidiando con otros huéspedes escandalosos y no tienes que levantarte temprano para tener que alcanzar el desayuno o alistar a la familia bien bañada y vestida y corriendo para llegar a tiempo para la cena en el restaurante de especialidades. Algunos aspectos a tomar en cuenta: La propiedad está en el medio de un lote vacío y de un estero por lo que no es extraño que encuentres fauna rondando por algún rincón o debajo de algún plato (hormigas, iguanas, arañas y cuijas o besuconas) También los escalones de la alberca no son muy amigables para las personas que tengan dificultades para caminar. Los insumos básicos pueden ser más caros de lo habitual (jitomate 20 pesos kilo, huevo 43 pesos kilo) por lo que es recomendable llevar despensa o programar una ida al mercado de Zihuatanejo; sin embargo la distribución de la casa, la infraestructura de la alberca, el precio de la villa y los encargados del lugar hacen de CASA DE ORO un sitio inmejorable para vacacionar. Si preguntas la razón de por qué éste pedazo de cielo es No Recomendable, se debe a que este pequeño tesoro es difícil de compartir jajaja...ojalá y siempre estuviera disponible, sé que es egoísta pero es verdad. P.D. Espero que puedan mejorar el acceso y salida a la piscina, haciendo los escalones no tan altos, transformar su sistema de cloración a salina, lo cual es más amigable con la piel y el cabello; también sería genial poner un jacuzzi(mucho mejor si estuviera en el ultimo piso) y que incrementaran la velocidad del wi fi. Si quieres hacer feliz a José llevale una bolsa grande de papas fritas de las de bolsa amarilla jejeje. - 1/01/1970 

Fantastisch!!! Wat een heerlijk huis , met een fantastisch uitzicht en vlak bij de rivier waar we zoveel gespot hebben leeuwen , olifanten ,buffels, koedoe’s en vele vogels . Alle avonden heerlijk bij de Boma gezeten en genoten van de braai , de geluiden en de vele sterren . - 8/01/2019

Perfecte ligging, heel veel dieren om het huis, klein kruger in je eigen tuin aan het zwembad. Schitterend, heerlijk rustig en superleuke braai plek aanwezig bij het huis. Dieren volop te spotten en game drive bij dylan is erg leuk - 8/01/2019 

“Casa De Oro is a mystical place to visit. The beauty and grand scale of the casa will take your breath away. Retreat, retreat, retreat!”
“Believe me, the photos on the website barely do Casa de Oro justice. Completely enclosed, the casa is a tropical paradise. The compound provided more than enough room for our party of seven to relax, play, swim, cook and dine at our leisure. The ocean is only a few steps away, just beyond a natural lagoon, and the views from the rooftop terrace (there was a daily race to occupy the hammock) are spectacular, the beach in one direction and the jungle in the other.
“But here’s the bonus, something we all enjoyed. We weren’t staying in a resort; we were in Mexico. Casa de Oro is on the edge of the village of Troncones. We were able to walk into town in only minutes, either along the road or along the beach, where you can stop (and we did) for lunch or a beer at one of the ocean side café-bars. The village has a small market, a handful of restaurants, a few small hotels, plus a small community of ex-pats. And if you don’t want to walk into town for supplies, you can have fresh produce and fish delivered to the casa.
It was the best of two worlds: a self-contained tropical paradise with an interesting and very friendly Mexican village right outside. We felt very safe. And we had a ball.” - 7/12/2018 

Just spent a fantastic week at Casa De Oro in Troncones. Hands down the best beach vacation I've been on yet. The house is great, the pool is excellent, and the beach is out of this world. 5 stars all the way. We will be back! - 1/06/2020
