"A good stay in Puerto Escondido.
We especially loved the staff. Doña Rosa makes delicious salsa its amazing with breakfast. Fernando tends bar in the morning and will spoil you! Lulu makes excellent food during the pm shift. Alberto tends the bar during the pm and makes awesome mezcalinas!
We felt safe and well tended to. The reception is very pleasant and helpful.
The sunsets were beautiful! We stayed in room 2 and had excellent views. Our boys loved the pool. There are a lot of cats on...
"Great location and staff are very attentive. Breakfast is included however it is a very limited menu. You get coffee or tea, fruit, and some bread with jelly."
"This hotel had a power outage when we arrived with 90+ degree weather and staying in a room with no power and no air conditioning was not possible for my family! The front desk said they couldn’t do anything because the power was out and did not give us a refund so they just kept our money and we had to find a different hotel to stay in . This is theft terrible service and terrible policy!"
"Just finished a stay Casa Joseph. One of the nicest hotels I’ve ever stayed at. We had a one bedroom suite. The room was terrific with lots of space and a nice bathroom. The A/C worked great.
The grounds of the hotel were well taken care of and I can’t thank the staff enough for the wonderful hospitality. They were attentive and took care of any issues immediately.
Would highly recommend staying here if you are in Puerto Escondido."
"Hotel was clean, staff was nice and breakfast was delicious. Only complaint is the at on Expedia it indicated that it provided shuttle to airport, however, it doesn’t provide that service"

Don’t even get me started on the free breakfast. It is one slice of plain toast. That is it. The breakfast is definitely false advertisement.
I have more stuff to say but I’m done wasting my time. Love puerto Escondido, so sad we had such a terrible stay."
"Do not stay here.
We booked Punta Nayaa for the final leg of our 10th anniversary trip—four nights we'd been looking forward to, drawn in by the hotel's photos and glowing reviews.
Check-in seemed fine. The suite looked adequate, and the welcome drink was a nice touch. We headed out for a pre-booked bioluminescent lagoon tour and got back around 11pm.
That's when it fell apart. Pulling back the covers on the bed, we found blood stains on the sheets and yellow stains across the blankets —...
