Top 10 Bed and Breakfast Inns in Puerto Escondido, Mexico
Looking for a tropical Mexican fishing village with relaxing beaches, oceanfront seafood bars and restaurants, unspoiled reefs for diving and snorkeling, and waves suitable for championship surfing? Puerto Escondido has all that plus the Laguna de Manialtepec mangrove lagoon for tours combining kayaking, boating, bird-watching, and swimming in phosphorescent waters. Regularly scheduled airline service links Mexico City and Oaxaca to Puerto Escondido Airport (PXM).
Rent an umbrella at the town beach, Playa Principal, which parallels the Avenida Perez Gasga hotel and restaurant row. Stop in one of the hotels near the beach for a drink or take the family horseback riding. A small freshwater lagoon at the mouth of the river, Rio Rigadillo, marks the border with Playa Marinero, which has waves suitable for beginning surfers. The whole family will enjoy the mile-long shoreline walkway known as Andador Escénico, which leads across the rocks to El Faro lighthouse and the Sueño Posible scenic overlook.
Beyond the lighthouse, Playa Principal transitions into Playa Manzanillo, a swimmable beach with clear waters extending towards Puerto Angelito. Rent a boogie board or equipment to snorkel the coral and rocks. If Playa Manzanillo gets too crowded on a holiday weekend, catch one of the water taxis linking Puerto Escondido’s seven beaches. Hire a skiff to take the family sightseeing or dolphin and sea turtle viewing. Fish for trophy sailfish or catch a dinner of yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi (dorado), grouper, roosterfish, mackerel, or snapper.
Watch the experts surf the 6-15 foot swells and hollow tubes of Playa Zicatela. International competitions in August and November draw the pros to demonstrate their prowess on the Mexican Pipeline.
Snorkel or surf the clear shallow waters beneath the high cliffs surrounding Playa Carrizalillo. High red cliffs, housing, and hotels surround riptide-plagued Playa Bacocho, which is good for long romantic beach walks and sunsets. For more adventure, dive Pressure Point’s tectonic plate fault lines or Punta Colarada’s volcanic overhangs, ledges, and lava rock swimthroughs. If you are lucky you will see lobsters, stingrays, moray and snowflake eels, barracudas, yellow tangs, parrotfish, and puffers.

Beautiful hotel in La Punta, Puerto Escondido
Reviewed By SophiaekkieI stayed here for 2 weeks whilst taking part in a yoga teacher training. I would highly reccomend this hotel for the following reasons: 1. The staff - they are incredibly kind and hardworking, really going above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic stay. 2. The location - the hotel is located very near the centre of the La Punta area, with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to choose from. 3. The hotel itself - the facilities such as the rooms (especially in the newer part of the hotel) fitness studio, pool and restaurant were all well maintained and great to use. Overall, I really couldn’t fault my experience here. The hotel is beautiful but what really makes it are the wonderful, kind staff who made it feel like a home away from home.

Reviewed By O9674ZVpetervBest price per value. Pay for a 3 star hotel and got 4 star service. The restaurant next door is amazing. Very nice quality meat and good Argentinean sides. The empanada is flavourful and is presented in a really nice way. Really recommended

Excellent boutique hotel near to La Punta
Reviewed By BouloysWe spent five amazing nights at Casa Beu, it's a charming property, well laid our, clean and safe. Furthermore, it's only a short walk to La Punta, the most happening area in Puerto. Morning breakfast of fruit, toast and coffee was excellent. Furthermore, we had to change our reservation twice and both times they were very accommodation without any penalties or questions. This place is highly recommended and I would definitely stay here again!!

Absolutely amazing
Reviewed By Aneira_RoseMy boyfriend and I stayed for just over a week at Casa De La Gente Nube during our travels of Mexico and felt extremely welcome there. We very kindly offered to have our room ungraded by the owner as it was available during our time there. Both the first and the second rooms were very comfortable and had lovely sea views breaking through a canopy of native trees - the sunsets from which were spectacular. Rooms were clean and maintained well during our stay and a small breakfast buffet was on offer each morning for a very reasonable price. The hotel is family run and that gives the place its welcoming and friendly vibe. The owner himself was a legend, a super chilled guy who spoke great English and who was more than helpful during our time there - at the end of our stay he even gave us a lift to the bus station after struggling to get hold of a taxi! We were offered a scooter to rent during our stay at a rate far cheaper than any of the other rental places in the area which made getting around to all the different spots and beaches a dream. Although Zicatala beach was only an easy 2 minute walk away which was really convenient. I’d definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for somewhere that’s got a good vibe, great location and won’t break the bank!

Cesar was attentive at all times.
Reviewed By greencopemopeI booked this hotel because I saw that Cesar replies to all reviews. This turned out to be a wise decision, because he replied to me right away. He gave me a room with air conditioning; I got a quadruple room with a sea view; and he provided me with a fan, which I use to create white noise to block out other noise. He gave me everything I asked for. The pillows should be replaced with ones more comfortable. The property has a kitchen, which would be an asset, if it was cleaned better and if better curtlery was provided. The kitchen really could be a boon to the property if it was better maintained. The other staff don't speak English, sadly, but Cesar who lives at the property, is easily reachable. The internet wasn't great, but Cesar would have fixed this for me if I had asked to changed rooms. I had an 02 corner room, so it wasn't very strong. The property is well located, close to the main beaches, with Playa Principal just ten minutes walk. It is opposite the hotel, and you can walk down some steep steps or take the road around to get there. It's really just ten minutes away. Zicatela can be reached simply by walking down Playa Principal until you reach the statue of the cupped hands... then after that it's La Punta. Walk in the opposite direction and you will reach rinconada where lots of restaurants are to be found. If it's beaches you are after... they are all really close.

8. Daikiri House Hotel
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 15 reviews
Casa Daikiri has space for 23 people to stay, we offer private suites and mixed dorms, so you can choose what’s most suitable for you. All private suites have a bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen. You can choose a suite for 2 or 3 people. The mixed dorms have a shared fridge and bathroom. All accommodations (dorm and suites) have good wi-fi connection, air conditioning (optional) and hot showers. Daikiri house offers great minimalist funk deco accommodations. The place doesn’t just look very cool and relaxed, it actually is! We are located 2 blocks away or 5 minutes walk away from Zicatela Beach witch is a good location to SURF and to get to know either side of Puerto Escondido, 10 min away in car to north Carrizalillo, Bacocho or Puerto Angelito beaches and a 10 min walk on the shore to south beach area La punta.
Comfortable and cheap accommodation
Reviewed By GerardoMaldonado1992The price is perfect for backpackers ( 150MXN ish for 1 bed in a shared room). Despite the location is not the best, as you need to walk around 3 blocks to the beach going through irregular streets with slope, shouldn't be a big deal if you are just getting there at night to sleep. The place and the rooms are nice, it has a pool and a cool rooftop, the only thing I think it's missing, is a bar inside, you need to but your beer outside if you want some drinks.

Highly recommended!
Reviewed By O3495MBmmWe can highly recommend that hotel! We spend spontaneously two nights there and had the big apartment with kitchen. The rooms but also all common areas as the pool and roof terrace were super clean and very calm. The view from the roof terrace is super nice and the location close to the beach. They offer to store your luggage until check-in or after check-out in a separate room which is key-locked. Even when we had problems with our next hotel reservation they stored the luggage until late in the evening until we found a new hotel and even tried to help us find a new hotel as they were fully booked themselves the next days. The couple leading the hotel is super friendly and there all the time I case you have a problem. I would always come back and highly recommend to everybody! The only downside is the very slow Wi-Fi.
