What a beautiful beach resort!! We completely enjoyed our stay at Zota Beach Resort. The entire staff delivers great service. Our room was wonderful and the bed and pillows very comfortable. The pool is heated and we could swim no matter the temperature outside. Pool and beach service-available for drinks and food. The food was so delicious!! The staff work so hard so you can enjoy your vacation. And there are fun extras like Cornhole, a ping pong table outside, a large chess game, Connect Four and hammocks near the pool and beach. Guests have access to complimentary beach chairs ( chaise loungers ) side tables and bottled water at the beach. Beach Cabanas and umbrellas are extra. And you get drink and food service at the beach. You want for nothing while staying here!! This was our first visit to Zota Beach Resort but not our last.
