The design is breathtaking, I can’t recommend this incredible hotel enough. The minimalist style, the beautiful location, the rooms are so relaxing. You truly feel like you’re in another world. I spent 6 nights here solo after my boyfriend went back to London for work and I wish I could have stayed longer. The beach was so private and the whole experience was 10/10. I have stayed at a lot of Mr and Mrs Smith hotels and this has to be my favourite. If you like understated luxury, bohemian living and brutally beautiful architecture, this is for you.

Nothing, I literally loved everything.

the architecture and the style . outstanding.

they don’t have an efficient service on the beach and they don’t have cabanas on the beach but just a few little sun umbrellas absolute not comfortable for the sun and the high temperatures , if you like staying all day long (!or at least many hours ) on the beach could be e a little bit hard…; also around the common pool there not a shade area…

Very calm and comfortable hotel. Spot is absolutely private, rustic and relaxing. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, in the middle of nature, can hear animals at night as well as the waves which is amazing. We had no issue with mosquitoes or bugs, also, aircon is not required. Staff and helpful and nice, facilities are great, the beach is virgin and gorgeous (not great for swimming but there is a pool). Rooms are clean and beautiful.

Should have stayed longer

The modern minimalist design of the hotel. The indoor/outdoor concept is unlike anywhere else I've stayed in the world. The patio upstairs has views to die for on either side - towards the ocean or towards the mountain. The beach was also super calming. Cresencio, one of the staff members was friendly, inviting and the spirit of the place. Loved the welcome area and their dogs Sandy + company

The food at dinner holds this hotel back from becoming a 5 star destination. Although it is included in the room fare - a more extensive Michelin style experience would complement this hotel better. I loved how connected the room was to nature but better instructions in the room on the closing of sliding shutters as well as keeping bugs out would be advisable.

Amazing property, well maintained and close to nature. It is away from the city so it is more for staycation or relaxation. but if you want to go out, the hotel staff can arrange for transport/ excursions. the spa/ sauna is really good and also a beautiful beach is right across the road.

the road to the property is a bit bumpy

Everything was really beautiful. The rooms were very comfortable, the private terrace and pool were amazing. I especially loved the outdoor shower. The food was fresh and delicious, plenty of healthy or decadent options at Breakfast and Lunch. Dinner is a set menu with with vegetarian option, and it was equally delicious. This is a place for relaxing in nature. I was outside all day, I read books, I swam laps in the pool, I did yoga on the terrace every morning (the hotel lent me a yoga mat), and we went for sunset walks on the beach every evening. The massages were also great! This was exactly what I needed! This is not a hotel filled with drunks by the pool. The staff was so kind and attentive. This is luxury and yet not gluttonous at all.

It is hot there, and we tend to drink a lot of water. Even though they will come and fill up your water carafe as often as necessary, I wish they would also provide reusable water bottles for the guests. If I return, I will definitely bring my water bottle.

such a magical place that is even more stunning in person. great food and quiet beach.

because the bathroom is essentially open air with just a curtain to keep bugs, bats, and everything else out, the bed should have a mosquito net

What a gorgeous place! Beautifully designed and transports you to a place of calm and indulgence immediately! Every aspect of the facilities was just perfect!

It is quite far from Puerto Escondido- around 1 hour drive with large part on a dirt road. It is really more of a place you go to and stay there (which is wonderful) instead of visit Puerto Escondido.

Exquisite blend of facilities and nature far from the beaten path grabs you the moment you set foot on this property! Hotel staff so friendly and accommodating, special shout out to Donaldo in food service providing consistent First Class service with a friendly flare! Facilities all amazing…beautifully designed room with private deck and pool (OMG), Hammam, Restaurant, and other separate pools and make great use of concrete and brick construction…Beautiful! Breakfast and dinner included were all so very delicious and a delightful treat of every day, Thursdays group dinner a great addition to our dinning experience. Nearby beautiful beach a great place to walk or just sit and enjoy! Expect this hotel to make all the Great Hotel Travel list Very Soon!!!! Book it Today!

That I had to leave it behind!

Beautiful, brand new property. Gorgeous design down to the tiniest details. Excellent service. Very comfortable rooms. Delicious food and fantastic drink selection.

Rates include breakfast buffet and dinner. The breakfast buffet was meager with poor quality bread and coffee. The dinner selection was minimal and portion size tiny. There weren’t a la carte options that we were made aware of. You left hungry if you didn’t have a large lunch. The hotel is also 100% sand paths - this is not a hotel for anyone who dislikes sand and/or has any mobility issues (lots of stairs).
