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.

This is by far the nicest place in zipolite by far. I have been there several times the restaurant is fantastic. And they open early. However they need to modernize some Areas. My first room was unacceptable and they provided another

10/10 Exceptional

Zipolite is such a special place and El Alchemista is a lovely hotel situated on the most beautiful area of the beach. The rooms are very comfortable with solid A/C. The staff are very kind and hospitable in every facet. As for the restaurant, the food and seafood are exceptionally fresh. Every item I tried was ok, but the tuna tostado, ceviche and guacamole are very delicious. The restaurant waiters and the stunning front row view of the rocks and crashing waves made the experience truly special. Would absolutely stay again. Gracias para un viaje hermoso!

Patio garden area needed attention, had not been cleaned up
Robert jay, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

8/10 Very good

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.

Los camastros pocos y en mal estado, el hotel ya vio pasar sus mejores días, perros dentro del hotel y en el área del restaurante pidiendo comida, el excremento de los perros en la arena de la playa, hacen sus necesidades frente a la gente

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!
