Pros +
- I thought this was a beautiful colonial style hotel. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the pool was lovely.
- It is a paradise!, well located and beautiful views. It is full of details that makes you enjoy all your time.
- It felt authentically Mexican, not a mega-resort built for foreigners. About 60% of the guests were Mexicans. The Spanish colonial architecture revealed new details every day. The courtyard was an oasis of quiet off the busy town street.
Cons -
- If you need internet unfortunately the signal is not enough to be considered a wifi hotel. It won¿t even consistently load like an Instagram post. The pool is beautiful but there isn¿t much seating. No reclining loungers. The restaurant was closed.
- My worst enemy: stairs, Pho ok, my parents are sick and dealing with stairs was not good, and I really appreciate the manager because he moved me to a downstairs.
- Air con was noisy but effective. Restaurant only open during special holidays... but lots of yummy cafes and restaurants are close-by and a supermarket within walking distance.

The location is great and it is a beautiful hotel.
We recently stayed here while visiting Puerto Escondido. I want to start by saying the owner is incredibly kind and welcoming — he was the highlight of our stay and really made us feel cared for.
The hotel itself is very run down and in need of serious maintenance. The pool and common areas are not well kept (the main pool especially looked neglected), and the rooms also need updating. It’s a shame, because the property has charm and potential, but it doesn’t feel like it’s being taken care of.
Charming boutique hotel with a lot of character. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated, and the pool area is beautiful and relaxing. The location is great—close enough to walk to restaurants and beaches, but tucked away so it feels peaceful. Staff are friendly and helpful.. The views from the second floor are beautiful. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall, a wonderful stay and definitely a place we’d recommend.
The only downside is that some areas could use a little updating, like the pool, chairs by the pool, showers
Nothing! We were the only guest and the place was inhabited. We left immediately after checking in and booked for alternative accommodations.
The private pool was full of bugs, dirt, and visible moss growing from the floor. The walls were dirty and scraped, and overall, the room was in an unsanitary condition that made it impossible for us to stay.
Wonderful view towards the sea. Nicely decorated rooms.
No in-house breakfast available.
Loved the very clean, private terrace and the firmness of the beds. And Guillermo is a great host and told us how to get to the beach and where to have dinner.
No coffee on the premises!
We have stayed here 3 times now and I don't think we would go anywhere else while in Escondido. This hotel has so much unique charm and charisma. The location, the grounds, the views from the rooms, and they are so spacious! I would not change a thing about this hotel.
Nothing. Everything is perfect. Our friends did say they wished they could have had coffee in the morning , so perhaps that could be an offer, but otherwise I'm very pleased.
It was walking distance from the bus stop. Quaint hotel ..
The location was surrounded by dirty streets .. they could add a water cooker so we could at least boil water for tea ?
Friendly staff & owner / historic feel of the building & spacious room with big terrace
No service at all ( no coffee or any other drinks available
Property was very convenient to everything. Very central. Really liked the area. Very well lite
They only have just a sheet to cover yourself
Nice pool area, look of the hotel is nice…could need a makeover though
Reception staff seems demotivated
Nice gardens, great location.
The hotel could do with done freshening up. It’s charming, but looking very tired. There was no breakfast or bar on site. Every time I went to the front desk, the staff were watching a video on their phones. I felt like I was disrupting them.
Location. Nice and courteous staff. Clean rooms and good service but they had no extra pillows and those available were very thin.
A very hot swimming pool. Only used it once. Otherwise it was like a jacuzzi.
The location was truly the best location. Beach was within walking distance. Taco place right outside that had very good tacos al pastor. Hotel was a little confusing to find at first because it's kind of tucked in an alley, but we figured it out. The grounds were pretty and had a lot of amenities.
The shower just wouldn't get warm. Granted, I showered at midnight so I don't know if there was a time related element to this. When my husband showered in the morning, it was actually warm. The air conditioner worked but it was still somewhat hot.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, the pool and garden are beautiful (truly a hidden paradise) and it is an easy walk to Playa Carrizalillo or Puerto Angelito, as well as Playa Principal. Breakfast was nice and parking is very convenient.
We stayed one more night in an upstairs room with a kitchen and a balcony (which was beautiful), but the kitchen was quite dirty and the plates / utensils not in good condition.
Very nice place with fun attention to detail. Authentic Mexican vibe with a artistic newer spin. Old enough to have good character but new enough to offer modern conveniences. The suite was very large. The beds were firm. The AC worked well following some experimenting(in my room the trick was to put on automatic) the view was amazing and the location was good. The area was not super quiet but in my room it was by design. Close walking distance to a large mega mart and a cool town near a marina with nice stores and many good restaurants. Great organic food store nearby.There was a nice kitchenette on the third floor which was cool. Tough for those with limited mobility because it had many stairs. Not easy to find negatives. Good parking. The shower was hot option if that matters to you(trick with that was to let it run a bit)If in Puerto Escondido I recommend you give it a go. Thanks to the staff who was great.
Can't think of anything worth mentioning besides the few minor temporary hiccups in previous paragraph. It is not new and due to the built in special details it is probably a lot to upkeep. Do not expect perfection but do expect lodging with heart and the hard work to keep it that way.
Location was excellent with marvellous views of the bay, staff are excellent, and an air of faded grandeur about the place that added a sense of mystique.
