Guest Reviews
- Israel (8/5): Need a Mexican Chef!! - A excepción del chef el resto del staff amable, sin duda alguna recomendaría contratar a un chef mexicano que tenga la calidez, excelente servicio y la pasión por consentir a sus comensales que solo los mexicanos sabemos (y queremos dar); las personas que atienden en el restaurante siempre con una sonrisa y súper amables. En la cena cuando llegaron nuestros platillos, los trajo el chef, su “atención” fue meramente dejar los platos en la mesa, nunca nos dirigió la mirada, ni un “provecho” o “que lo disfruten”… o ya si el español no se le da…. Un “Bon apettit”… nada. El corte Steak Saigón estuvo muy bueno, los camarones a la diabla definitivamente para nada recomendables.
- David (10/5): - Beautiful walking beach, great food from Greg the world class chef, staff were all very pleasant.
- Thomas (10/5): Best place to stay near La Manzanilla - We’ve been to Boca de Iguanas many times before over a 35 year period because it has the best bodysurfing beach and we’ve eaten at the restaurant at Chantli Mare several times… it’s so good! This was our first stay at Chantli Mare and it was delightful… the staff, the room, the ambiance are all delightful. For our last dinner there, we asked Greg, their notable chef, to cook us a couple of lobsters in any way he thought appropriate and his preparations were fabulous! And they even let us plug in our electric/gas hybrid car for free. A beautiful place and fantastic staff.
- Scott (10/5): - Great location, friendly staff, excellent food.
- Charlie (10/5): - Beautiful spot on beautiful beach.
- ROXY (10/5): - This boutique hotel is AWESOME!! We LOVED our beautiful, beachfront stay @ the Chantli Mare! Owner Roberto & his beautiful wife are the most welcoming couple who immediately become your best friends & attend to every detail of excellence for your stay. The expansive beach is exquisite with crashing waves - so therapeutic. You can walk for hours or visit the nearby quant town. The DECADENT meals artistically infused with Mexican flavours by world famous Chef Greg are an AMAZING experience!
- Vanessa Rosalie (10/5): - Wonderful place - can't wait to go back!
- Julián Enrique (10/5): - Excelente todo como siempre
- mervin (10/5): - Great property
Can’t wait to return
- Esther (10/5): - We will return! Staff, property amazing. Enjoyed the empty beach, walk forever.
- Yovani Samuel (10/5): - El lugar es muy tranquilo, especialmente si vas a descansar, la comida es deliciosa y a precio justo, la atención de los anfitriones es bastante buena.
Totalmente recomendado.
- LARRY GOWER (10/5): - Estuvimos muy a gusto, te hacen sentir como en casa, Norma en la recepción y Jovani en el Restaurante excelente servicio y atención, desde la mañana con un rico café y pan, cortesía del hotel, el desayuno continental bien servido basto, y la comida en general deliciosa, sin duda lo recomiendo ampliamente.
- PEDRO (6/5): - El aseo de la ropa de cama dejó mucho que desear, al igual que las toallas de baño que estaban bastante desgastadas
- Mark (10/5): You owe it to yourself - This is a wonderful spot for a romantic getaway or to have peaceful rejuvenation on one of the nicest stretch of beach. The staff is just so welcoming and efficient.
- Elisa Noemi (10/5): Excelente hotel para disfrutar el mar - Pasamos unas vacaciones muy relajadas en familia, excelente servicio de todo el personal. El restaurante muy rico y muy cómodo. El mar de esa zona está muy padre, nos tocó la arena muy limpia sin piedras. El hotel es pequeño solo tiene 7 habitaciones lo cual está padre para disfrutar más las áreas comunes porque la alberca es pequeña. Muy padre el detalle que todas mañanas te tengan listo café y galletas de cortesía afuera de las habitaciones. Aire acondicionado, televisión y todos los servicios funcionan perfecto. Sin duda volveríamos!
- Gabriela Flores (10/5): - Excelente lugar para descansar! Todo ha sido espectacular
- Randall (10/5): - Very comfortable rooms, delicious food, great staff and ideal location!
- Clyde (8/5): - Staff, food, service, setting, view, beach was wonderful. We loved having our small dog with us.
Our room’s deck was not as nice as the other rooms had yet they were the same price.
This boutique hotel did not disappoint. We recommend and hope to return.
- AMANDA (10/5): - Beautiful!
- Emily (10/5): - Beautiful location , wonderful atmosphere, owner and stuff are very warm, helpful, and create a great atmosphere. Food great. Very special place.
- Jessica (10/5): - Beautiful magical spot, food was amazing!
- Suzanne (6/5): - We were given a room at back when we expected a room at the front. Bathroom taps leaked and toilet stopped flushing next morning. Other than that it was quiet and relaxing an food was good.
- Stephen (10/5): Wonderful Stay - Beautiful Hotel, great Food and location!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Service was good the restaurant was actually closed and we had to go to La Manzs for supper that night 10 minute drive.
- Steven (8/5): - Very relaxing property. Efficient and hard working staff and accommodating hosts. Directly on the beach with comfortable room. Nice restaurant that serves huge delicious portions.
- Christine (10/5): - Beautiful small boutique hotel. Only 6 rooms and so peaceful. Beach is flat so good for walking. The staff was so friendly and attentive. Food was fabulous. The owner and his wife are on site so much fun to talk too! The only thing I can find wrong is the bed was too hard. No problem I had my egg crate! Plan on another say in the next few months. You can also enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner on the beach without staying there.
- James (10/5): Hidden Gem - Chantli Mare is an increasingly rare gem on Mexico’s Costalegre. It’s secluded, set on a long sandy beach perfect for swimming. The food is amazing and reasonably priced and the staff is friendly and eager to please. The village of La Manzanilla is 10 minutes away by car for groceries, souvenirs, and feet-in-the-sand beach restaurants serving delicious fish and shrimp dishes.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very well received. Room location above expectations, staff very service oriented. Excellent restaurant.
We made a special request for Anniversary amenities prior to arrival and everything was arranged as requested. Kuddos.
- John (10/5): Great - Wonderful place. Delicious food & excellent staff. Will stay here again. Highly recommend.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - El lugar muy agradable, la gente del staff muy amable. Un par de cosas a mejorar: decía que el hotel era de no niños y si había varias familia con niños, por lo cual no es un hotel de descanso. También tiene el servicio de cocina, muy buena por cierto, excelente calidad y sabor. Pero llega mucha gente externa a comer al restaurante, y nuestra experiencia fue que los atendían antes que a los propios huéspedes.
- Kevin (10/5): - Paradise!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful setting.Very relaxing.
Great people. Tremendous food. World renowned chef.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We loved our stay! The property, room and setting was amazing. The owners and staff were warm and accommodating. It might not be an issue for many but the bed was a bit too firm for us, but that was our only issue. We will go back, nonetheless!
- Margaret Lorraine (10/5): Amazing - We booked online. We did not know what to expect. The service, food and accomodation were exceptional. Will return.
- Cindy (10/5): - It is off the beaten path but once you arrive it is paradise. Staying at Chantli Mare was a magical experience, words can't describe the tranquility and peach we felt while staying here.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Secluded and beautiful location. Great food. Highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice rooms (we were in 2 during our stay and great staff. The food was outstanding, attracting people from nearby camps & towns. This s quiet area, nothing like PV
- Verified traveler (10/5): - What a literally breath of fresh air!! Beautiful place and impeccable service!!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful people, great food, fabulous beach for swimming and walking
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Quiet, not busy or haunted by vendors, great beach. Chef is awesome! Typical Mexican service, they were always busy but didn't check on your drinks etc.
- Wes (10/5): Great!!!
- We found Chilanti Mare on an Expedia website and we are sure glad we did. My wife and I wanted to marry in Mexico and needed help with all of the unforeseen details and without Roberto's knowledge we would not have had the perfect wedding. The staff was very friendly and immediately responsive to anything we requested. Chef Greg is amazing. Greg is always early to bed and early to rise and never fails to create a delightful culinary surprise. Chalnti Mare is located in a special part of Mexico. La Manzanilla is a ten minute taxi ride and is an Old Mexico town without the big stores and hotels. The beaches are some of the most beautiful in Mexico and are clean and uncrowded. The people in the nearby towns were always friendly and welcoming and we never felt unsafe. We look forward to returning to this special paradise soon.
- rakayla (10/5): Beautiful secluded beach - Everything about this hotel was amazing! Their customer service was impeccable, view and location was perfect, food and drinks were great, and the room had the perfect view. They thought of every little detail down to the hand milled soap. We will definitely go back!
- Javier (10/5): Nice hotel by the beach. - The staff was amazingly helpful, had a restful vacation feeling at home away from home.
- Brodi (10/5): I really don't want to share this place . . . - There is nothing better than the Chantli Mare. This was our 2nd year visiting the small boutique hotel (6 rooms) that sits right on the sea. We have already booked our room for next year. The food here is amazing. The staff is attentive, fun and professional. We met the chef this year which was super fun. The beach is essentially private. We walked on the beach to the small town of La Manzanilla more than once - about 3 miles. This year Roberto had some art for sale displayed in the entryway and I scooped some of that up. We fly into Puerto Vallarta and drive 130 miles south to get here and drive is beautiful through the national forest. We. Love. This. Place.
- Brent (10/5): This beach hotel is HEAVEN ON EARTH - This was our second wonderful, totally relaxing visit to Chantli Mare and we loved it even more this time around. Everything is nice, spotlessly clean and the very best Mexican Hospitality has to offer. Roberto, Mary, Eric, Greg, Fernando and Antonio (and the other staff we do not know by name) are truly amazing at making everything nice. The cuisine is fresh, delicious, varied and of the very, very best quality, served with a smile.
While our main goal was finding a nice quiet place at the beach, Chantli Mare is just that, but we were totally thrilled with the location, the standard of accommodations, the beach, the landscaping, the surrounding jungle and total lack of traffic. Most everyone around is doing the same thing: relaxing, enjoying the beach and the wonderful scenery, stopping in for lunch or a margarita and just loving Mexico.
Everything one could want at the beach is at hand: Beach tables & chairs, umbrellas, lounge chairs, sofas, on the beach or by the pool or in the restaurant/bar area. You can walk the endless miles of white sand, visit La Manzanilla for the "totally real" Mexican family beach or just park in one spot and enjoy the view and the sound of the sea.
In a word: Extraordinary!!!
- Jamal (10/5): Owner is Amaing - It was a very comfortable stay. The owner Mr. Roberto Contreras was extremely helpful. We had a problem with the car rental from ZLO airport and he handled the entire thing for us.
Excellent service, beautiful spot.
- Olya (10/5): Secluded paradise- just what we like! - A wonderful 6-room hotel on a 5 mile long secluded beach. 2 campgrounds nearby fill for weekends- did not bother us at all. A 60 minute walk or a short taxi ride( $3.50) to La Manzanilla. Gently sloping walkable sandy beach. Reasonable waves close to the water edge- calm beyond. Great food! The owner was very accommodating and helpful, staff was friendly. We had a very pleasant and relaxing 10 days.
- Brent (10/5): Like being at home, but on the beach - We were welcomed and hosted like royalty. Everything about Chantli Mare is something to remember. The hotel, although small, wants for nothing. Mary and Erik took care of our every need - friendly "make yourself at home" atmosphere, but with discreet and excellent service.
The beach is stunning, almost deserted and excellent for swimming and playing in the waves. The water is shallow for quite some distance, so it's a great place for people who want to be in the ocean, but not have to swim in deep water.
The patio, pool and garden are all beautiful and there is seating of every kind (lawn chairs, sofas, etc.) Chantli Mare is a safe haven from the world with nothing to hear except the voices of your friends and the crashing of the waves.
Our room was very comfortable. Fine linen and towels, excellent toiletries and a silent, efficent air conditioner and ceiling fan. Very tastefully furnished, with a big private patio looking out into the coconut groves and the beach.
The food was excellent! Everything was prepared fresh and delicious. I would call it "Continental with Mexican influence". We tried the fish dishes, the seafood dishes, eggs a number of ways, hamburgers, fresh fruits... all delicious. Certainly the best hamburger I have had in Mexico!
Chantli Mare is a totally relaxing, friendly and beautiful experience. "Getting relaxed" took about 15 minutes from arrival and just got better from the
- Brodi (10/5): Perfect beachside paradise - Chantli Mare is the hidden gem of La Manzanilla. It brings a polish to the little fishing village. The location boasts an almost private beach with crystal clear water. The food at Chantli Mare is some of the best around...people not staying there come for the food! Every meal we had was excellent. The B&B on the beat has beautiful rooms with a view, daily housekeeping and mindful staff. We loved this place so much we have already booked our next stay.
- Arleen (10/5): PARADISE!!! - This was the most amazing place!
Lovely rooms with a lovely setting and amazing food.
The owners really gave a lot of thought to our comfort and providing us with the best service, and making sure every need (we never would have thought of) was met!
It is very remote and not a place to pick if you are looking for nightlife or people watching, however for us...IT WAS PERFECT!!
Very, very reasonable in regards to food and beverage pricing.
Actually have to say the food was amazing for every meal, and all was fresh and beautifully prepared.
If you are looking for a relaxing place with fabulous views, long sandy beaches and a piece of tropical paradise, this is the place to come!!
We will definitely come back!!!!
Thanks :))
