Welcome to Palo Alto, the private gated surffront community with an epic A-Frame wave in front!

Casa Petri is designed around the kind of surf lifestyle people come to Guerrero dreaming about: wake up, check the waves from your bed, grab coffee on the terrace, and walk straight out to paddle out directly from you property for a session at Palo Alto A-Frames. Set on a 1,000 m² beachfront lot within the private gated Palo Alto community, the property offers front-row access to a wave that breaks both left and right, creating a rare setup for surfers who want true walk-to-surf living without the crowds or daily drive.
Enjoy this uncrowded stretch of paradise where your daily rhythm is set by swell, tides and sunrise/sunset. Within a low-density community of roughly ~40 lots and only a small handful of existing homes, this prime beachfront villa offers a rare chance to secure front-row view of the amazing surf in a setting that still feels undiscovered.
The home features an easy indoor-outdoor layout built for surf living. The main living room opens toward the ocean and pool area, creating a relaxed central gathering space where family and friends can lounge after surfing, cool off in the shade, or enjoy the evening breeze while watching the sunset. The open floor plan gives the home a social, beach-house feel, with natural flow between the kitchen, dining, living, and outdoor entertaining areas. Ceiling fans, air conditioning, built-ins, and furnished spaces make the villa comfortable for extended stays, vacation use, or a shared ownership surf retreat.
The kitchen is set up as a true gathering point for the property. With a 6-burner stove, practical counter space, water purifier, and connection to the open living and dining areas, it is ready for everything from quick post-surf breakfasts to full dinners after a long day in the water. The kitchen works naturally with the outdoor dining and BBQ areas, giving the home the feel of a private surf club: fresh food, cold drinks, ocean air, and plenty of room to host friends, visiting family, or fellow surfers.
Outside, the property continues the surf lifestyle story. The pool, swim-up bar, pergola, outdoor dining space, outdoor shower, and ocean-facing deck make this more than just a beachfront villa—it is a complete surf basecamp. There is room for board storage, yoga, training space, gardens, or future guest/casita concepts, allowing the property to evolve with the owner’s vision. From dawn patrol to sunset dinners, Casa Petri delivers the simple luxury of living directly in front of the waves in one of Guerrero’s most authentic and still-undiscovered surf zones.
The property features a manicured slope designed to maximize surf and beach views. The natural elevation helps create the view-forward home design with wide decks, indoor-outdoor living, and sunsets that never get old.
This 1,000 m² beachfront lot: mornings that start with a barefoot coffee on a wide ocean-view terrace, then a jump off in front of your villa straight into Palo Alto A-Frames. The best of indoor-outdoor living—open-air living spaces, shaded lounges, a full-size pool with a swim-up bar, and a surr/sunset-facing deck made for post-surf meals with friends and family. With room for gardens, guest casitas, a yoga/surf training space, and secure storage for boards and gear, you can create a private coastal retreat that’s equal parts surf basecamp and easy luxury—a place where the days are simple, the waves are close, and the rhythm of the ocean becomes your everyday routine.

Palo Alto remains primarily undeveloped, preserving its privacy and long-term upside. With limited beachfront inventory and a gated layout, this is the kind of place where early buyers often benefit most as the coastline gains awareness.
This coastline remains largely undeveloped and refreshingly authentic, with the small village of El Roble serving as the key turnoff—where you drive through a quiet, local community on your way out to the beach zone. The location is exceptionally convenient for getting in and out: Palo Alto is roughly 1 hour from ZIH (Ixtapa–Zihuatanejo International Airport), about 40 minutes from Ixtapa, 30 minutes from Troncones, and just 20 minutes from La Saladita. That means you can enjoy true off-the-beaten-path privacy while staying close to the region’s best amenities, dining, and world-class surf breaks.




The small community of Palo Alto is a relaxed surf community up the coast from Zihuatanejo, Troncones and Saladita. The residents primarily come down for a few weeks here and there to surf, but everybody keeps an eye on each other.

Palo Alto is only 60 minutes from the airport of Zihuatanejo / Ixtapa and the improved road is a dream drive to the small town where you go on a finely maintained dirt road to the gated entry to Palo Alto.
