Jorge González Parcero completed Lo Sereno Casa De Playa Hotel with a rustic luxury, honoring the natural surroundings, while giving guests comforts of an upscale hotel.

Where the water of the Pacific Ocean meets the mountains of the Sierra Madre del Sur, and half an hour from the Zihuatanejo International Airport, you’ll find Lo Sereno Casa de Playa, a boutique hotel that awakens the sensory pleasure of getting reacquainted with the exuberance of the sea and tropical vegetation while enjoying personalized attention, exclusivity and privacy.

Taking a timeout of the everyday life maelstrom to listen to the wind whispering between the palm trees and the sound of waves breaking on an almost virgin beach, with nothing and  nobody around to interrupt — that’s one of the best ways to enjoy this unique destination that allows you to rediscover the pleasure of no-frills leisure. A haven to enjoy the concept of barefoot luxury.

The harmonious contemporary aesthetic of Lo Sereno balances respect for its surroundings’ authentic beauty and a unique, intimate essence, which gives guests the feeling of being in their own beach house.

The architectural project, headed by Jorge González Parcero, used Mexico’s plastic art tradition as a reference point and made the most of the richness provided by tropical woods and other local materials. The result is a structure with character, comprising. 10 suites with terraces, an infinity pool with an ocean view, and a covered terrace with a handcrafted pergola.

The interior décor uses furniture exclusively designed for Lo Sereno; it boldly brings together textures and finishes to achieve an avant-garde, artistic look in every space, from the lobby to the rooms and even the bathrooms, infused with minimalism through glass walls and outdoor rain shower heads. All in all, Lo Sereno’s interiorism creates an atmosphere that fully reflects the concept of barefoot luxury.

Gastronomy is a unique value. Lo Sereno’s culinary offer is distinguished for using local products and fresh ingredients. Be it for breakfast, lunch or an intimate dinner, the outdoor restaurant, La Terraza, is the perfect setting to enjoy its dishes, which can be accompanied by pairing suggestions or the bar’s mixology. An excellent option is the hotel’s namesake cocktail; it undoubtedly surprises the palate with a hint of vodka, citrus, a dash of basil and lemon-lime soda.
