Beautiful and quaint, Casa Elvira is a safe and inexpensive little hostel, that is steps from the beach, restaurants, bars and night life!

Se come rico y a buen precio desde la michelada cubana pasando por el agua de limón hasta el filete de marlin y los camarones además de una muy buena atención de los meseros.

El restaurante es amplio y de ambiente relajado y tranquilo, el servicio es amable y los costos son económicos. Nota: el ceviche lo prepararan como si fuera cóctel de camarón (con salsa catsup, de hecho el Ceviche De Pescado sabe igual que el Cóctel De Camarón)

El lugar es muy bonito y pintoresco, las habitaciones son todo lo que necesitas para descansar después de un día en playa o caminando por el centro de Zihua. Sin duda lo visitaría de nuevo, viaje en 2019.

Muy buena ubicación, y la comida fantástica, sin embargo lo mejor y el plus total de este lugar fue Gabriel quien nos brindó un servicio mas allá de la excelencia, felicidades casa de Elvira, ojala puedan reconocer el gran esfuerzo de su personal.
