A small ocean-view wellness property on nearly two and a half acres above Zihuatanejo, combining massage and body treatments with a temazcal ceremony and farm-to-table dining as part of its broader retreat programming, though single treatments can also be booked outside a full retreat stay.
ZihFit Wellness Retreat Spa sits on nearly two and a half acres above Zihuatanejo along the road to Playa La Ropa, on Mexico's Pacific coast in Guerrero. The property functions primarily as a retreat compound but also operates its treatment menu as a standalone spa for visitors not booked on a full program, offering ocean-view massage, a temazcal sweat-lodge ceremony rooted in regional indigenous tradition, and body scrubs made with local ingredients. Treatments are delivered by the retreat's resident therapists and wellness staff, and the property's reputation is built on pairing bodywork with its broader farm-to-table and fitness-retreat identity rather than functioning as a pure day spa. Facilities include outdoor massage areas positioned for ocean views, the temazcal dome, and dining space serving the property's farm-to-table meals, though full retreat accommodation is reserved for multi-day guests. Single treatments run 60 to 90 minutes and are available daily by appointment between 9AM and 6PM; the property does not accept walk-ins given its retreat-focused operation. Visitors choose from the treatment menu when booking rather than a fixed package, distinguishing single spa visits from the multi-day retreat programs the property also runs. Prices range from about MXN 800 for a shorter massage or scrub up to MXN 2,800 for the temazcal ceremony or longer combination sessions.
