Villa Aikia (Adults Suites A/C)

Excellent location with an amazing view. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. Everything was clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and always available whenever we needed anything. The food at the restaurant was also delicious.

I liked everything.

Yes — that makes the point even better because it shows that nude-friendly doesn’t mean you’re expected to be nude. We loved how quiet and peaceful the property was. It felt tucked away from town, while still being close enough to walk there if you wanted to. The cliffside location was incredible, with beautiful views over the ocean. Our room was beautifully decorated, and we especially loved the terrace and the view. The colour schemes, décor, and attention to detail throughout the entire property made it feel very special. The property is also nude-friendly, which I wasn’t sure I would be comfortable with at first, but it ended up feeling completely natural and relaxed. We wore our bathing suits around the pool and never once felt judged or out of place. At the same time, we felt comfortable enough to enjoy our own terrace nude. There was no pressure either way — the whole atmosphere felt very safe, respectful, and accepting. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay.

The staff, leading with Daniel, were fantastic. The room was excellent, the view fabulous, the food and drinks on point and the surprise bottle of champagne for our anniversary was an amazing touch! Thank you!!!

We were there in low season, and because of it, the bar and kitchen weren't open extended hours. We would have loved to have a snack or drinks a little later in the evening (and earlier in the morning), but we understand the timing...

excelente lugar

Amazing don’t doubt for one second if you’re having trouble deciding that this is the one to pick! I’m an incredibly picky , somewhat fancy person , that still has a casual soul and needs amazing views wherever I stay to be happy. this place fit perfectly!

Need to keep the lower level Baja shelf Water feature maintained year around. It was empty and look unkempt when we were there.

Lack of cleaning in common areas , slow service in restaurant and limited options available in menu. Yoga area and showers to beach lack mantainance.

La vista de la habitación estuvo genial

Aunq se encutra un poco lejos , la verdad esta muy tranquilo para descansar

el hotel estaba increible, el personal estupendo, atento a cada cosa que necesitaramos, todo super limpio diario y las amenidades que ofrecen 100/10, la vista del cuarto magnifica y el espacio tambien, sin duda vuelvo a este lugar tan hermoso para quedarme más dias!!

que el restaurante cerraba muy temprano y la tienda si estaba algo lejos, pero pues es algo que se podia resolver, solo nos hubiera gustado tener algo de comer en la noche , pero era avaricia, todo estaba excelente en este lugar

The room. The location. The view.

Había algún daño de una tormenta. El hotel nos subió a un suite más grande con una vista maravillosa. Los empleados fueron los mejores. Es muy relajante, nos gustó el ambiente de ropa opcional.

NA

Las habitaciones son muy cómodas y el personal es sumamente cordial, buscan como hacer de tu estadía muy confortable, las áreas comunes del hotel están muy bien decoradas y la vista al mar es espectacular.

La ubicación es un problema, si bien da mucha privacidad, no es fácil ni accesible llegar aún con automóvil porque los espacios de estacionamiento son limitados e incomodos,

The location of the villa, built into a cliff, with a private beach. Very friendly staff and tasty cocktails.

That i had to leave. 😞

A good secluded location, which feels very private whilst being a short walk to the main town of Zipolite.

There were entire areas of the hotel that are no longer in use. Namely, the pool and bar close to the beach. Per the booking.com photographs these look to be in use but in fact that is entirely not the case which is a real disappointment. I had booked this hotel largely with this in mind.

We had such a wonderful stay at Aikia. The staff, especially on the front desk, were so friendly and accommodating. The pool was great to lounge around all day and the food was very tasty. We had an incredible room with a sea view and a very comfortable bed. It all felt very luxurious. We would definitely stay again.

Las habitaciones esta muy cómodas y el lugar muy bonito. Elnpersonal te atiende muy muy bien y todo es muy comodo. Esta a 8 min de la playa pero es mucho mejor por que esta mas tranquilo

Todo bien

Instalaciones bonitas

Poco empaticos

The view is stunning and the staff incredibly helpful and responsive! Max is amazing!! From the moment we checked in, he touched bases with us via WhatsApp and offered help with everything. The place is really clean, good AC, good mattress and nice apartment!

The wifi doesn’t work in any location, which is very annoying. The pool is also always dirty, no one is ever there. For the price we paid, I expect these two things to be working well for sure.

Super Team & Service Clean Super Blick

Buchungssystem zu sehen, wo das Zimmer in der Anlage liegt

Mooie ligging en het personeel was heel vriendelijk

Alles was perfect!

The views, the amazing service by Max, the superb waitstaff, the awesome cleaners, the pool, the AWESOME FOOD & COCKTAILS, the quiet location… the classy rooms. The nakedness of it all…

Having to walk up and down the hill each time you go out, but budget for taxis and easy to walk down and taxi back.

Great staff with special mention of the receptionist - Marco I think - who was extremely helpful. He put us in a room with fab view on the sea.

The place could benefit from some refresh (lick of paint, fixing of defective lights or other stuff…). Also limited service (no drinks / bar after 19h) which made it feel a bit less lively . Could increase price/value proposition.

The staff is amazingly kind. All of them. Starting with Max the receptionist.

Its just an incredible relaxing place

Great location a bit away from the noise and the crowds yet super close to the beaches (15 mins walk). It’s the only hotel on the hills that has actually a bit of a community soul. We visited the others around and there are more like proper hotels whereas this one sees a lot of interactions between guests. The pool area and the yoga area are pretty magical, and the rooms with terrace are fantastic. Accra to a very secluded small beach down the hotel is a secret magical touch that makes it perfect.

No option to have dinner in the evening or even drinks, but Maquil next door is a fantastic restaurant.

​Fantastic nude-friendly stay! The views from the room and the newly upgraded pool were spectacular. The room was perfectly laid out with a comfy bed, a bidet, mini fridge and plenty of space for suitcases. ​Max was incredibly helpful with all our bookings and recommendations. The vibe was chill and friendly, and as a couple in our 30's, the stairs and 8-10 minute walk into town were no problem at all. We’d definitely come back!

The staff were friendly and did their jobs well. The view from many rooms and common areas is lovely. The restaurant has vegetarian options.

The property is on a hillside and depending on where your room is, you might have to walk up and down a lot of stairs.

La vue, l’ambiance légèrement à l’écart de zipolite, la sympathie du personnel, l’environnement gay friendly. La petite piscine très agréable.

La lenteur du service en particulier pour les plats. L’absence de room service.

The rooms were very spacious and well positioned for incredible views.

A few movable umbrellas could’ve helped provide some additional shade around the pool and on balconies.

Posizione

Acqua fredda per tre giorni. Piscina sporca

La atención del personal es estupenda, ese fue el punto central para disfrutar la estancia, todos y todas sin excepción. La ubicación es una zona tranquila y La vista del Hotel es espectacular, por lo que vale la pena caminar un poco más para llegar a la playa y la calle principal. En cuanto a las instalaciones, la zona de la piscina es de primera y las habitaciones son espaciosas y confortables.

La habitación requiere mosquiteros en la ventana del baño y en la puerta principal.

The setting and design of the hotel is beautiful. The view is amazing, the rooms are well designed and you are just a short walk from the beach. There was an issue with the water at one point but the staff were very helpful and got it fixed.

Nothing. Just worth noting that the restaurant closes at 5pm. Also that there are regular infrastructure issues in Oaxaca, e.g. electrical and water problems. The hotel works hard to manage these but they may occur.

Loved the private, quiet location melding into the cliff face a short walk away from the main Zipolete beach. I also loved my spacious, airy and stylish, well appointed room. The bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in and the view over the green plants and trees to the sea, priceless Max and his team are exceptional. Everyone super friendly and happy to be working together. Breakfast down by the pool is the best. I’d make a return booking in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.

Nothing.

Max and the staff were fantastic. Rooms were very clean and nice. Pool area was great!

It’s a bit further than expected from town.

La habitacion

Los arboles alrededor de la habitacion impiden la vista al mar. Antes se veia sin problemas.

We had a wonderful time at Villa Aikia! Staff was so helpful and friendly. Facilities were spotless and accessible to the main attractions in Zipolite. We would definitely come back!

Modern, spacious, quiet and clean room. Great breakfast service. Amazing views from the terrace. The best of all were the hosts, Max and Daniel, always attentive and helpful with tons of recommendations on how to get around town, where to go for food or fun, transportation, and out of town activities.

Max was very helpful and carried our bags Thank you

The staff were so helpful and made my stay even better - special thanks to Max, Pablo and Alan for their hospitality. Also( Breakfast was so good and also the bed was super comfortable. And gorgeous view from the hotel.

Everything was great, but to make it even better, I’d recommend the hotel install a stronger wifi, blackout curtains, (and this is very nitpicky) and for breakfast serve the salty food before the sweet.

L’emplacement, la vue, la chambre était bien

Pas de piscine de toute la semaine car en maintenance … ce n’était pas annoncé au moment de la réservation, nous n’avions pas été prévenu à l’avance, dommage quand on réserve un hôtel avec piscine à Zipolite

La vista es hermosa.

La atención del personal puede mejorar. Oa piscina necesita mantenimiento.

El desayuno

Que no había agua caliente

extremely clean, great staff, beautiful view, free parking, a/c, bidet, hot water, clothing optional allowed me to sun and moon bathe nude so it was wonderful

pool was is disrepair and looked dirty, the private pool wasn't a pool it was a tub but the water wasn't chlorinated so I didn't use it, just a few details about room like refrigerator rack was left out on counter, there was a dead fly on the table by the sofa, the towels smelled sour, the lamps were all unplugged, the bedside lamps emitted extreme heat, the a/c was difficult to maintain a temperature (typical of mini splits), no onsite dinner

Me encantó la habitación (muy amplia) y la vista del hotel en si, muy bien ubicado a pesar de que no era tan facil de llegar cuando el camino estaba inundado, el desayuno también era muy rico.

La señal de WIFI y que no tuviese servicio de atención en caso de cualquier cosa luego de las 18 horas, tuve dos situaciones que no se resolvieron hasta la mañana siguiente.

The staff is AMAZING! They’ll do their best to ensure you have a good time.

It’s not too far away from the beach but getting back is a bit of a hike which can be hard with the warm weather. The pool wasn’t bad but it needs some maintenance.

The little spa on my balcony, the new rooms, the view, the walk down to the quiet beach - max the reception staff was hot and friendly. Felt very free being naked here.

Would definitely return. The AC is the best I ever had; it cooled my room without a noise and without me feeling it blowing at all. Note that the beach is NOT swimmable: it’s dangerous. The pool is refreshing and very clean. However there are many small details of improvement, that a 4 star hotel should have, hence the slightly lowered rating; The bed looks so luxurious but is soooo hard…I had neck pain every day. A Wellpur-mattress topper would have fixed this, and better quality pillows. The wifi is quite weak in the room. The room lacks some amenities for women(hair conditioner, hair dryer). The shower was never hot, i thought this is normal in the area but afterwards i checked into a low standard house where i had hot water. Some electrical plugs/lamps were not working. A ”do not disturb” sign is missing in the room, it could be a small rope and sign to close from the main stairs towards the terrace. The cleaning team and the bar waiter are respectful and hardworking and excellent. But apart from them there are a lot of different staff all the time walking around the pool,bar,stairs next to my room, which makes me less comfortable in my clothing optional paradise. I also noted most guests were not nude, I was the only one, but I stayed in the semi-privacy of my terrace mostly. Regardless of all these suggestions and notes, I loved my stay, it was excellently clean including the outdoor furniture. I loved the decor all over the main areas, and the view and paintings and iguanas and the sound of the sea. And of course the wonderful welcoming by receptionist Max, Tak!

Amenities, access to a private beach, the staff was excellent- helpful and professional. The food was very good

We stayed in Villa Aikia for 4 night and we loved every moment. The Villa itself is beautifully located, a short walk away from the busy beaches. So it's really quiet. The view from our Suite with terrace was stunning. The pool is big and super nice, breakfast very delicious with a wide choice of dishes. But the best is the team. Max is the manager, he was always there and more than friendly and helpful. Thank you all so much for a wonderful time! We will definitely come back to beautiful Zipolite (!!!!!!) and will stay definitely at Villa Aikia. Highly recommended!

The staff. Max. Pablo. Francesca. Rosanna. Junior. The room was spotless. The kingsize bed was wonderful. Meals were excellent.

Having to come home.

Max is a sweet host and so hot

nothing

We loved staying here. Nothing better than lying naked by the pool!

I loved everything about this place!

Could have a TV and a water boiler for instant coffee or tea

The property is quiet and secluded nestled up on top of a hill giving it stunning sea views. While the hotel is atop the hill, it is still close enough to the town and all the action. My partner and I loved the quietness and privacy that the hotel offered. Having the restaurant/bar right off the pool and easy access to the beach from the hotel, you never have to leave the property during the day. We also loved how the pool was he heart of the property and all the rooms were basically right off the pool. The property was clothing optional for those who chose to partake and it made for a comfortable atmosphere. We were very happy with our comfortable terrace room. It was a large in size, had a very comfortable bed and air conditioning. We felt the room to be very private and quiet. The room was very clean and tended to daily by the delightful Pablo, who was so caring and welcoming.

Even with my next comments, my partner and I are planning to come back to this property, only next time for a longer stay!Our room did not have a proper door to the bathroom, it was just a sliding glass door, which does not give you significant privacy while in the bathroom. Couples, whether new or together for a while or even on their honeymoon need and deserve a bit more privacy whist using the bathroom facilities. Our lovely terrace doors, should have been able to open completely to allow the beautiful sea air and breeze in, however they did not open. The water pressure and temperature were inconsistent, but I believe that to be all of Zipolite and other parts of Mexico we have stayed, so I don’t think that is solely related to this property. The Wi-Fi was also inconsistent.

Great vibe.

A little rough around the edges.

Great place! highly recommend! Best on Zipolite.

Great location , only few minutes walk to town though small trail. Rooms are updated and spacious. Bar and pool area are very nice. They have happy hour with tasty drinks. Beach is down the stairs and very nice and calm , possible to snorkel. Beach is public , but with few people

Pool need to be updated. Water was not clear on our visit.

Service is excellent. Food is heaven. Location and views of the premises are good. Idyllic spot. The planning of the rooms is genius to give everybody privacy. Big bright and spacious room with good iterior design.

Little noisy a/c.

Views

no enough space to park and dirt roads too many stapes to go to your toom

The staff was unprofessional. Like the staff said “ the manager doesn’t care about anyone that is not a 20 year old mexican fit guy. The manager didn’t care about any issues , infact he was part of the issue. There was no hot water in the room, the hotel is not beach front. It’s is a 10min walk into town. The hotel is on a hill. You have to walk 3 set of stairs 200+ step down and up. Save your money and stay anywhere else. The hotel is at best a 3 out of 10 and the staff and manager just make it worst. The manager insulted my friends and over all the manager had a nasty attitude. Unless you were like the staff said “ a 20 year old mexican guy” he didn’t care. The pool was dirty. The manager was in the pool 3 out of the 7 days I was there with his friends partying. When we told the staff about issues they stated that they will tell the manager and the manager never came to us. Of course not all the staff is rude some staff is great and nice but they are scared of the manager. A staff me never told me me that in order to get hired there you have to be young and the manager has to like your appearance. Not a good place to stay. The hotel is full of stairs and honestly you could get a better rate and better location anywhere else. NO HOT WATER TO SHOWER WITH. THE WIFI DOESNT WORK. To finish when I tried to check out they tired to over charge me. Be aware

The property is a perfect location away from the parties but close enough for convenience. The private beach is worth it alone. Room 9, 15, 14, 13 have the best views. The staff is 24/7 and very helpful. The rooms are modest but also very roomy and comfortable each with a view (although some are obstructed). Having a bar & restaurant on property was also welcomed when I only wanted to relax.

The property is great and is in the process of upgrading some features. I wish the restaurant had longer hours if only for snacks, and an ATM machine would have made a great addition. I also wish there were beach chair like the hotel next door had but I’m sure they’ll consider it.

Everything

-

Great modern clean rooms with beautiful view. fantastic staff.

Restaurant is average

Beautiful views, great art, bold architecture. The staff was warm and very kind. .

The steepness of the site presents physical challenges, the many staircases and very tight, steep access road are part of the charm, as long as you can handle them.

The room was above expectations. Hot water, AC, safe, comfortable bed with a great view. Staff were all excellent and having the bar and restaurant at the pool was great.

Further away from the main beach, just a short walk down a foot path.

Everything we wanted to experience just got better. We were returning to Zipolite for our 7th time and have stayed in many different places with varying styles and comforts. Villa Aikia took it to another level. Big shout out to the entire team there - especially Pablo and Francisca who kept our spaces immaculate and brightened each of our days. The whole experience was fabulous.

This property is not for everyone- we are an athletic couple who enjoyed doing the multiple sets of stairs to get up the hill to the property every day- even doing them two to three times. Car 🚗 services are available but would still require dexterity on stairs once you are at the hotel. Stairs create lift and unparalleled views here of all the surroundings and magnificent Roca Blanca.

It's obvious the staff enjoy working there and it shows in the service they provide to guests. Everyone was very helpful, attentive and kind. The grounds and pool was great. Room was spacious and clean. Would stay there again for sure.

Great location with an amazing view and access to a beautiful beach. It is clean, safe and also very well decorated with a minimalist peaceful style. The staff is more than amazing. they make you feel home.

Everything is great at this place. They could just add a couple extra options to the breakfast menu.

Location, quiet and the view

The WiFi is very spotty and not strong

The views were amazing! We had one of the rooms with the private pool and large deck that overlooked the ocean. I don’t recall the name of the lady who cleaned our room but she did an exceptional job of making sure that our room was clean and comfortable. All of the staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating especially Max, Daniel and Sebastian. The staff went out of their way to help arrange tours and provided us with great information to make our adventures memorable and they always checked in to see if everything was to our liking. The food and drink was very good albeit a small menu.

What we didn’t like is that we can’t return whenever we want! Unfortunately the restaurant was not open in the evening and that would have been nice especially given the location and views but given that it is a small hotel we understand that it is hard to keep staff working at all times. We still found good places to eat near by and it did not inconvenience us.
