Beautiful space and hotel in a quiet corner of Zipolite. The staff were attentive and friendly, the room was spacious and comfortable, the food was excellent, and the ocean views are unbeatable. Can't wait to go back.

We had a nice week long stay in February at this hotel in a basic cabin. The room was large with stained concrete floors, separate bath area (also spacious) and two private patios, though we only used the one which entered into our room since the other one was just dirt. The room was quiet with a rustic design, on the ground floor, and in a building with 3 other rooms. It was also just steps from the beach. Housekeeping was great with consistent, daily service. Our towels were replenished when we wanted and soaps and shampoos replenished as needed.
We had only two meals at the restaurant, one lunch upon arrival and breakfast on the day of departure. Both were good but on the pricier side for Zipolite.
Two bottles of drinking water were provided daily and a water cooler was available to fill a reusable water bottle near the Mexoni gift shop.
The only two minor issues was our room did not have a coffee maker (though I think upgraded rooms may have one) and coffee at the restaurant was approximately $5 USD, a little steep in my opinion. It would be nice if all rooms had complimentary coffee/tea. My last concern was that the staff contacted me via WhatsApp App to arrange for a taxi on our day of departure a few days prior. I expressed we wished to pay by credit card and was told that would be okay. On our departure it seemed no one had made arrangements, and though we again requested to pay by credit card, the taxi that arrived would only accept cash so we had to stop at an

Fourth time at El Alquimista. The hotel is really showing its age. The recent storms have taken a toll. Instead of investing in the property each year, the property has stayed the same over the past four years. The fixtures and fittings are showing age, the menu hasn’t changed, the loungers are worn. I’m sad to say that my time at El Alquimista is over. On to find a new hotel in the area.

We love El Alquimista! This is probably the most luxurious place to stay in Zipolite and you will not be disappointed. Attention to detail and exceptional service is one of the key points for our recurring stays here. They truly take care of you!
Two of our favorite staff are Louis & Cheely. They take excellent care of you in the restaurant and on the beach! After just day one they knew what we drank and what we liked. They just made life so simple and enjoyable for us. Louis had our umbrella and table waiting every day. With him we truly never needed for ANYTHING! Food here is EXCELLENT!
The grounds here are just beautiful and well maintained! The front desk guys also do a wonderful job and can schedule transportation for you to and from the airport. Nothing like getting off the plane in HUX and having a smiling face holding a card with your name on it!
El Alquimista makes it difficult for you to want to leave the property. The quality of services and food are hard to beat in this small town. The ambience is also just over the top! We loved all the candles at night and the refined vibe!
This is our forever place in Zipolite!

I enjoyed my stay. It’s a nice getaway. I had few issues, but nothing out of the extraordinary. I specifically dislike the fact that there’s a lot of street dogs around; they walk around you while you’re eating in the restaurant.

We stayed at three different places in Zipolite. Alquimista was best for food and location. The service was also good. We weren't aware that some of the hotels in Zipolite, while air conditioned, don't have glass windows, just wooden shutters and thatched roofs. In September when we visited, the air conditioner only keeps the room so cool, especially if you want to open the shutters for light. We weren't attracted to Alquimista because it was clothing optional, so we were okay with discovering that only the beach area in front of the hotel (not the hotel itself, like we had read) is clothing optional, although it seems to be okay on some of the hotel-serviced lounge chairs by the beach. Our room was by the hotel's kitchen, so between the crew working late in the night and the crew working breakfast, there was a considerable amount of noise. The view of the ocean from our room and the view from the pool were both obstructed by vegetation that could have been cut back, but we experienced the same issue at another hotel. Alquimista is definitely one of the better stays in the town, and the restaurant serves delicious, fresh food. It's a pleasant laidback cabana experience. Not fancy, but nothing is in the town.

The property is very boutique and located in Zipolito known for nude beach. , bungalow type rooms, reminded me a little of Bora Bora style bungalows. The food is very good at hotel and if you want to try other food option there are local restaurants with in walking distance that offer great food at half the or less the price of hotel. If you want to try a shrimp burrito then go into the town of mazunte and stop in at the Burrito fish local.

Absolutely gorgeous place, couldn’t recommend this place enough. I would recommend the beach side cabins, it’s gorgeous to walk out the door on to the beach, idyllic. I almost didn’t want to review this because I didn’t want more people to know about it so it doesn’t get too busy 😂

special place that is worth the splurge.
We had a suite close to the water that was super private yet close to the beach,pool & restaurant.
The location is perfect as it’s close enough to walk anywhere but this end of Zipolite Beach is definitely quieter.
The staff could not have been more friendly & attentive to any of our questions or requests.
Our only issue was the pool was so chlorinated that ourselves & other guests we talked to didn’t really use it which was a shame as the setting was really nice & chill.

Property was very nice. Staff was good but service was very slow at reception and at the restaurant. Prices are too high for what you get.
Also had poor communication with front desk. They ask you to use WhatsApp and EVENTUALLY reply.
Bad experience upon departure. One person help three groups!! THEN Our taxi was negotiated at one price with the front desk and the driver later asked for much more!!!
Consumer BEWARE.

The room was simple, but perfect, facing the sunrise, yet still protected from the direct rays of the sun by the beautiful vegetation on the hotel property. We will be back here in 2024.
