Bed and Breakfast Description

The goal was to create a space that was both private and public, where you could get away from it all or immerse yourself in everything. Thus, we took two lots and created 3 private Casitas (“little houses”) that would serve as mini-suites. Then, we created a central area, the Area Comun (Common Area) where the pool, kitchen, dining room, and sleeping porch are all located - the space for sharing time together like swimming, cooking, eating, playing cards, and hanging out. Thus, visitors could enjoy both time alone and time together with family and friends.

Casa Viva was born from the vision of organic architects Karina and Gustavo Jasso and is built by local craftsman and skilled Mexican artisans. Much attention has been made to every detail based on ecological designs that rely on natural building materials - earth, wood, stone, and palm. Walls are finished by hand with "cop" - clay, sand, straw and water - if you look closely you can see the fingerprints of the craftsmen.

A shared multi-use building includes private nooks for reading and larger seating areas with swings and hammocks, a dinning room, kitchen and yoga room/sleeping porch along with a man-made tidal/swimming pool.

For special occasions, the caretaker’s house, next to the garage, is available for overflow capacity. Please advise us in advance that you will use this space so that the live-in staff can prepare to make other arrangements. This small hut can accommodate two adults and two kids.

Area Attractions and Activities:

Casa Viva is about a 25-minute walk from the village of Troncones and a 10-minute bike ride. Some of the area activities include horseback riding, fishing, caving, snorkeling, surfing, boogie boarding and body surfing. Staff is available to assist with notice.

There is great swimming, in Manzanillo Bay, roughly 25 minutes walk, 10 minutes bike ride, or 5 minutes car ride. Manzanillo Bay is the place for surfing, boogie boarding and body surfing. There are a few rocks, but the surf is great and the point has a perpetual break. Closer to home, there are plenty of small tide pools along the beach; you don't have to snorkel to see a vibrant and diverse biosphere of aquatic life.

Jaguar Tours, which you will see to your left as you drive to Casa Viva along the beach, has lots of equipment and plans various tours. Rent bikes or surfboards, plan a caving expedition, or more.

The Ixtapa Aqua Paradise NAUI Scuba Center pro facility can arrange scuba trips.

Most Popular Rooms:

Casa Cuadrada is the most centrally located and some guests think it has the best view of the beach. Just like Casita Redonda, it contains a king-size platform bed, with a stunning unobstructed view of the crashing waves, its own shower-hut, and alcove.

Casita Privada - This two-story “townhouse” was designed to be a completely self-sufficient living space with its own kitchen. The porch provides a comfortable living room or extra sleeping space, with panoramic views of area- property, beaches, mountains
