    Overly attentive staff (good if thats what you like), rooms need stricter quality control for price
    Location was poetic and hotel staff cared greatly about a dislocated knee injury that I had just sustained the night before I checked in. They were attentive to my needs and cared about customer experience, so for that I am thankful.
    I came to Zipolite hoping to be able to enjoy some tranquil anonymity, so the overly attentive staff stressed me out a bit. However, I fully acknowledge that this is a somewhat good problem to have. My first hotel room at Alquimista (the suite), while impressive at a general level, one of the pillow cases had cigarette burn marks, and one of the 'clean' towels had questionable stains that led me to use my own towel instead. The room locking system is reduced to padlocks that can easily be picked, so this is something to take in mind if you care greatly for your security. The second room I stayed at had the shower head suspended from the ceiling with a makeshift string contraption (see photo) and came off the wall with a simple nudge. I had to waste time during my stay to deal with reporting this issue, and because they refused (politely) to move me to another room, I had to wait around for maintenance to enter the room to do plumbing. Overall I lost at least 2 hours of the time that I paid for because of this issue. For the price that I paid for the hotel, these issues are unacceptable and it would be nice to be compensated for loss of use value. Hope this review helps.

    Wonderful
    Excellent Food, beach and staff. A bit pricier than other restaurants but excellent quality. Drinks also a bit overpriced. Perfect beach, very popular very diverse.
    Toilet door left little privacy and it was made of sticks and did not latch. No blackout curtains. The sun was in my face as soon as it came up. Bring eye covers so that the sun won't disturb your sleep. My bed frame was very squeeky room 27.

    Memorable. I will return.
    This is a remarkable beach hotel built with simple but spacious rooms, a lovely pool area surrounded with birdsong, a great yoga studio, and an attentive and friendly staff. The restaurant is right on the beach and you can stay as long as you like with comfortable spots for reading and writing. The garden-like setting, the beach access, and the staff make this a sure beat if you want an authentic Mexican travel experience.
    The restaurant is quite good; however, it would be nice to see more regional cuisine and inventive cocktails. The Mexican dishes on the menu are by the far the best.

    El Alquimista is a gorgeous hotel with loud Pulsating music every day.
    Room is beautiful. Beach is gorgeous. Pool is an amazing sanctuary of quiet beauty. Restaurant food was delicious. Staff couldn't be nicer or more helpful.
    They could use three times the number of Beach Beds. ALL the reviews I read said ask for a room away from the restaurant if you want any hope of a late afternoon nap or going to sleep early. Unfortunately, my beautiful room was right in the path of the Loud Pulsating music that was playing at the restaurant at both 5 pm and 10 pm.

    A beautiful place to stay - clean and comfortable with a nice staff.
    The property was clean and comfortable. The staff was also very nice. The junior suite is a very nice room and we loved the plunge pool!
    Robes would be a nice plus. Also a few more lounge chairs at the beach would be great. We camped out two days next door where we had to buy food and drinks ($300peso min per person) to find a comfy spot to sit.
