History
Perched above the private cove of Playa La Ropa on Zihuatanejo Bay, the resort traces its roots to the late 1970s, when the beachfront property first opened as the Villa del Sol, a Zihuatanejo classic dating to 1978. In the following decades it grew into one of the Mexican Pacific's most storied getaways, later operating as the Viceroy Zihuatanejo.
In 2019 Hyatt's luxury-lifestyle brand Thompson Hotels took over the former Viceroy and reopened the 56-suite property as Thompson Zihuatanejo, the brand's third address in Mexico and its first on the Pacific coast, following The Cape in Cabo San Lucas (2015) and Playa del Carmen. A design-led renovation fused mid-century-modern lines with traditional Mexican artwork, giving the intimate beach resort a sophisticated yet laid-back character.
