The Resort & Setting
WorldMark Zihuatanejo occupies a traditional hacienda-style building at P.º del Morro 5, right in the Centro district of Zihuatanejo. It's part of the WorldMark by Wyndham collection, and guest reviews (4.5/5 from 420 ratings on Google) consistently mention the bright rooms, the on-site restaurant and the pool. This isn't a sprawling resort complex — it's a more intimate, town-centre property with a genuine sense of place, which suits owners and renters who want to walk out the door and be in the middle of things rather than tucked away on a resort strip.
The Area and Things to Do
Zihuatanejo grew up as a fishing village before tourism arrived, and it's kept much of that character even as it's become a well-known stop on Mexico's Pacific coast. The town beach, Playa La Ropa and Playa Las Gatas are all within easy reach, and the harbour area is lined with seafood restaurants, market stalls and small galleries. Zihuatanejo sits a short distance from Ixtapa, its more purpose-built resort neighbour, so owners and renters get the choice of a quieter, local-feeling base with easy access to Ixtapa's beachfront hotel strip and marina when they want it. Zihuatanejo International Airport serves both towns, which matters for anyone renting out a week to guests flying in.
Selling or Renting a Week Here
If you own a week at WorldMark Zihuatanejo and are deciding on your options, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and buyers or renters contact you through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee, and that's it.
Before you list, it's worth understanding how WorldMark by Wyndham handles resale, since this affects what a buyer actually receives. According to WorldMark by Wyndham, a resale transfer carries a $399 fee (as quoted by brokers in 2025–2026 price lists), and the process typically takes around six weeks once a broker is involved. No right of first refusal appears in the current ownership documentation, meaning the resort doesn't appear to have a formal right to step in and match a resale offer.
A key point for buyers: Club Pass exchange privileges apply only to developer-purchased vacation credits, so a resale buyer may not have access to Club Pass in the same way the original owner did. Likewise, owners report that VIP and TravelShare status transfer only within the same family, not to a new resale buyer. On the exchange side, WorldMark credits can be used through RCI, a verified exchange network for this ownership.
For renters, what matters most is straightforward: a central Zihuatanejo location, a pool and restaurant on site, and proximity to the beaches and harbour. Be upfront in your listing about what week or points you're offering and what's included.
Practical Notes
When listing or buying a week here, confirm directly with WorldMark by Wyndham (or your broker) the current annual maintenance fee, since that figure isn't fixed and changes year to year — it isn't something to take on trust from an old listing. Buyers should also ask specifically whether Club Pass, VIP or TravelShare benefits apply to the week being purchased, given the restrictions noted above, before agreeing a price.

Travel Tips
Pack light, breathable clothing and sandals for walking the Centro streets, which can get warm and humid most of the year. Bring cash in small denominations for the municipal market and harbourfront food stalls, as not all vendors take cards. If you're renting out your week, let guests know that Playa La Ropa and Playa Las Gatas are best reached by taxi or water taxi from the resort, rather than on foot.
