The dinner experience was great. We didn’t feel rushed like other similar places. We got our drinks and talked and asked for the menu when we were ready. The food was amazing and there were I would like to try on another visit. This view was breathtaking at sunset. Looking down on the city lights was beautiful. It was a little dark, but they provided individual modules for mood lighting and the overall aesthetic was comfortable.

We were just there this past weekend for my 30th birthday and it was an incredible experience, from great service (you are able to Whatsapp message a beer to your room), amazing views, and delicious food. We stayed in Lilia villa and the bathroom + room + balcony were gorgeous! I want to thank the hotel for the hospitality and great experience as we will definitely be revisiting. Thank you Luis, Carmen and all the Espuma hotel team, we had a great time from Nick and Dania :)

Had an amazing meal there once again! We have been many times, however this time Juan and his team went over and above. The quality of the food, and cocktails were absolutely first class, we let Juan recommend all courses and they nailed it! Going back again this week, their signature cocktail is out of this world, we both had mahi mahi done in different styles. Best we ever had! Thank you guys, and we ll see you soon. Steve and Alison

Restaurant review - we didn't stay in the hotel. Stunning location, good food and great service. I marked them down on the drinks - they seemed over priced and their "Best Margarita in the Universe" didn't live up to the hype. I would definitely return!

After a week of surf in Saladita with the entire family, my husband and I decided to stay in Zihua a few nights last May. We stayed at Espuma Hotel for three nights and had most of our meals on-sight. One of the best stays of my life. Despite being only three rooms (we were the only guests all three days) the service was AWESOME! The food AWESOME! The view from the rooms, pools, and restaurant… AWESOME! The AC in the room was quality and across the board the staff was so kind and welcoming. It is a 15 min walk to town but an easy stroll down hill to the malecón / but the stairs are hardcore coming back. Other than that 10/10

Amazing service and food! The home made sweet banana bread was fantastic. The pepper steak literally melted in our mouths and the lava cake was some of the best we've ever had. The view was awesome and the atmosphere was phenomenal. Very classy. Perfect for a romantic dinner for two to celebrate renewing our vows after 25 years of marriage.
