“Great cosy place, dog and gay friendly. Far enough from the noise but close enough to the ocean and the fun. Hosts a skydiving event twice a year.”
“This area of Oaxaca is definitely rural. If you're unfamiliar with what that means, or you're hesitant to "rough it" slightly, then I'd suggest staying in Puerto Escondido, or somewhere that the cruise ships dock. Otherwise, this home is perfect. It's basically a cabin in the woods. Quiet, clean, but definitely "basic" - screens for windows, electricity yes, kitchen outside, concrete floors, no luxuries, but you're here for the beach not to sit and watch television. For me, it's perfect for a weekend away from things. The owner, James, is very nice and friendly, and judgment free which is excellent.”
“Very nice place to stay! Good value for your money, nice staff. Has hot water and air conditioning. Will stay here again when I return this area is walkable to beaches and restaurants. It's a quiet hotel & I feel safe here. Laundry is across the street.”
“It’s a good place, well located and clean. Location is good even though it is not right on the beach. It’s a 3 minute walk to the beach and also a 5 minute taxi ride from La Punta or Carrizalillo in the other direction. There are also several restaurants right next to it in case you don’t feel like walking to Zicatela”
“I first, stayed like a guest in here. Years later, I worked here as well. the passion that the staff put on their jobs is amazing. Just nice people working there. And the owner, can't be more accessible. I loved here and you will love too the amazing magic pool nights and that magical paths full of fishes!”
