A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

Unforgettable Experience ... Amazing Staff

Review Submitted: July 14, 2012 Date of Stay: March 2012
Our experience at Vivo Resorts was unforgettable! The 4-bedroom beachfront condo is luxury at its finest, with a 180 degree view of the ocean to die for! There was ample space for us all, and the condo is very comfortable to live in. Listening to the sounds of the breaking waves both night and day was very soothing and good for the soul. The staff at Vivo are amazing too, and were always there to help in any way and answer any questions we had! In addition to relaxing in the infinity pool every day or going for a leisurely stroll along the miles and miles of beaches, there is lots to see and do in and around Puerto Escondido! We enjoyed swimming and snorkling at Carizalillo Beach, whale and dolphin watching, and a fantastic guided tour of the lagoon! The people are very friendly and made us feel welcome! I can't wait to go back! It's Heaven on Earth!

It was quite the momentous week as I moved into our condo for the first time since its completion. I spent the week with my teacher daughter and two of her teacher friends – it was great fun to share our ‘dream’ with one of our children and experience life at Vivo in reality! Vivo’s motto has been, “Making dreams into reality”, but we’ve now changed the motto to read, “Dreams are even better in reality!”. It’s almost impossible to describe the gorgeous condo, its ample size and beautiful furniture and décor. The 4 bedrooms/3 full baths provide lots of space and privacy and is very suitable for family gatherings or 2-4 couples sharing. The patio and ocean view is spectacular with unbelievable sunrises and sunsets. The lulling sound of the ocean waves calms the soul and the quiet beauty of the ocean in front with miles of beach, the mountains and fresh-water lake behind, and the infinity pool beside us reminds me that there is more to life than busyness! The Vivo staff are so happy and anxious to please in every and any way. Nothing is too much to ask. While it’s great to rest & relax, it’s fun to know that a trip to town (Puerto Escondido) is only a few kilometres away with lots of shopping and quaint beach restaurants. The local people are happy, friendly, and fun! We look forward to retirement when we can spend more time to enjoy our ‘dream’.
