Casa Cuitlateca - Detailed description and walk-through

Casa Cuitlateca and it's gardens are beautifully decorated to reflect the native Mexican and Indian design and art from the various regions of Mexico. Casa Cuitlateca is situated on secure gated grounds with a total of 5 bedrooms, each with it's own spacious modern bathroom, bamboo accented closets and cabinets, cedar doors and natural wood lintels on windows and niches throughout the complex.

Upon passing through the entrance gates, a graceful, curving driveway with mosaic designs encrusted with thousands of different colored stones ascends toward the Casa and parking area. A suspension bridge connects the parking lot to the main grounds where there is a handwood boardwalk between two ponds, two fountains and a gorgeous, scenic garden with footpaths cascading down the hill. The garden displays an array of tropical plants which include mango, papaya, lemon, banana, almond and palm trees.

Above the bridge, on the first level of construction, one is presented with an infinity pool overlayed with hundreds of pebbles, and a bar and lounge area that overlook the pool, manicured gardens and the expanse of Zihuatanejo Bay and its spectacular sunsets. Just beyond lie a poolside deck, an open-air dining area and, just behind it, a large, beautifully appointed Mexican style kitchen. The kitchen includes a gas stove, convection oven, microwave, large fridge, lockable pantry and extensive cabinetry and storage space. Convenient to the kitchen and outdoor dining terrace are two half-bathrooms for guest and employee use, accessible from public, outdoor areas.

The second and third levels of Casa Cuitlateca house all the bedroom suites and a semi-enclosed living and dining area with library. In this area are also additional storage closets and a laundry room and utility patio.

Above the kitchen, the Puebla and Oaxaca rooms sit one above the other with identical floor plans. They each feature a king size bedroom, closets, cabinets, a sitting area, a built-in side table and a terrace with room for hammock and small table and chairs, that provides amazing views of the bay . On the top floor of this section a rooftop deck features a private tanning area, hot tub, restroom and, again, outstanding views of the bay.

Above the bar and lounge area a curved stairway leads up to the semi-enclosed living, dining and library office area overlooking the pool and terrace below, off of which is situated a third bedroom with king size bed and private bath, which is also suitable for use as an office. The library nook next door includes built-in bookshelves and desk, and the cozy livingroom / diningroom itself affords yet more distinctive views of Zihuatanejo Bay and town.

A short staircase leads up under an impressive, spiraling roof structure topped by palapa to a mezzanine landing from which one gains access to the Michoacan suite and the Guerrero room.

The spacious Guerrero room is a large and beautiful private haven and can be considered the "master bedroom" of the complex. It features a king size bed, ample closets, built-in desk area, spacious bathroom and its own spacious and private terrace with lounge chairs and a view of the bay framed with tropical vegetation.
