Zyanya is a unique property situated on Punta Sur right on the ocean.
Perfect for a family or friend retreat. The home contains four large master bedrooms each with its own private master bath all with views of the ocean.
The downstairs bedroom which is also wheelchair accessible faces the ocean and opens to the poolside for easy access.
A huge double living room and kitchen with spectacular ocean views as well as a large oceanside infinity pool and deck equipped with lounge beds, dining area, and chairs are perfect for entertaining.
There is a Chef’s kitchen and an extra-large laundry area.
The House is also finely decorated with world-class hand-made furniture and a vast art collection making it one of the most beautiful and stylish properties on the island.
What the previous guests say:
“Zyanya is idyllic in its location allowing our party to enjoy relaxing massages by the pool, with singular scenic views, as well as the convenience of a ten-minute drive in our golf cart to Playa Norte where we enjoyed the night life. The house is stunning in its design, accommodating our party of ten comfortably with each room possessing a heavenly bed and ample space. From arranging our smooth arrival to greeting us (even though we were early) with mimosas and appetizers, Luis and his staff went above and beyond during our stay. Every morning we were greeted with a delicious spread of fruit, fresh made papaya smoothies, and authentic Mexican breakfast, and then welcomed, after a day of sightseeing, to a surprising entree with delectable desserts such as creme brulee. Luis’ attention to detail is unmatched as a chef and host–recalling one of our party’s special diet requests after just one meal and cooking the fresh-caught lobster we purchased during our yachting adventure! We are counting the days until our return to Zyanya.”

“The house was great, amazing views. We really enjoyed the private beach. Almost every morning the beach was raked and cleared. Dave is very kind, he recommended a couple of restaurants that ended up being our favorites. I can’t wait to go back.“
“Nice private small beach area. The owner arranged golf cart rental for us, making it easy for us to explore the island. Loved it!“
“This was our first time to stay on the Island. Let me say, “it won’t be our last”. The property was exactly like it was shown in the pictures and descriptions. Katy was very thorough with directions and the Check-in process. Once we were there Dave met us and showed us around and got us in touch with a golf cart company that brought the cart to the house for us. We enjoyed the pool and the bayside of the island for snorkeling and swimming. We also used the kayaks for a nice paddle out to the turquoise waters. There was so much to do or so little to do. Whatever you were in the mood for. Fantastic property I highly recommended. We will definitely be back“

What the previous guests say:
“Everything was beautiful! The outdoor living was incredible. They supplied everything you might need, did not expect that. Sofia was so kind and helpful! My Husband thought they might need the police to get me out!“
“I adore this Bungalow-The pictures absolutely do not do it justice. Sofia was wonderful as always with arranging the Transfers to the Ferry, Home and Golf carts as well as the Doctor’s in-home visits for the Covid Tests now required for the return home. My only thought (and only a thought)* A 2nd sofa instead of chairs in the Living room would be perfect for those days when the weather is not so good and you just want to relax/chill. This was our 2nd stay and just rebooked for the summer -It’s just that perfect”
“We were OBSESSED with this house!!! We did partial trip in playa Norte and part down in punta sur and it was perfect. We loved the pool and hanging in the palapa reading. House comes with Sonos. Sofia was incredible and her service was A++. We were sad to leave. Only complaint was WiFi was spotty and hot water in the shower didn’t last long.“

“We were quite comfortable here. The furniture consists of 4 barstools for the kitchen counter, one patio chair and a two-seat, wood slat, futon in the living room and a very comfortable queen-size bed in the bedroom. The futon would be acceptable for a young child to sleep on. Kitchen has very basic dishes & utensils, but has a toaster, coffee pot, microwave and 2 burner stove top. However, there is no hot water in the kitchen. The apt. Is centrally located and quiet and within walking distance to the grocery store. There is no on-site staff, but the owner replies quickly to email. Staff that do work there speak Spanish only. We enjoyed our stay there and hope to be able to return.“

Perfectly located mid-island so no matter what your plans are getting there is easy. There is a fantastic housekeeper and manager who makes your stay enjoyable.

What previous guests say
“Great stay, great location just outside of downtown but not too far, we walked. Great view and would stay here again.“
“This rental is in a great location right on the Malecon and within walking distance to Playa Norte and Hidalgo. The oversized balcony off the room overlooking the ocean was the best feature. We were welcomed with a golf cart ride from the ferry to the unit which was a nice touch. There was daily maid service to switch out the bedding. The property manager was easy to get ahold of. Overall great unit for the price. The only negative thing I would say is that the door to the unit is paper thin so you can hear everyone/everything in the halls. Would recommend if you want to save a few $$.“
“My husband and I celebrated our one-year wedding anniversary here and had a wonderful time. Clara was very helpful and picked us up from the ferry terminal and took us to pick up the golf cart we rented from Everything Isla! Beautiful simple room and great views from the balcony! This was close to the action and didn’t need to travel far to get to anything. Highly recommend!“
