Loved the private pool and aesthetics. Also Lise was an incredible staff who spoke so highly to how well the hotel owners treat them.

Excellent location that was walking distance to a popular area but far enough away that it wasn't loud. Loved the kitchen to reheat leftovers and morning coffee. Two minute walk to the beach and excellent customer service. They even hand delivered a surprise birthday cake and a special note from my sister. All of the staff was wonderful and welcoming.

I’ve stayed many places in Puerto. This was one of my favorites. It was new, internet great, hot showers, the staff was AMAZING. Super cute, quiet, 10 min walk to La Punta or Zicatela. 5 min walk to the beach. It’s quiet and calm. Really no complaints other than the Oaxacan sun. But the bedroom A/C upstairs fixed that. I wanted to surprise my gf with a bday cake and a quick message to the staff, they had it ready for me in our room! They even provided a bottle of wine, beach towels and umbrellas for us to use. Can’t recommend enough

My friend and I had the most amazing stay at Casa Mava this week, the rooftop pool was our highlight! Fernando and his team were the perfect hosts and couldn’t do enough for us, thank you for having us. We will be back!

I'm a greedy American so would have loved a room with AC in both the living space and bedroom. However, it only being in the bedroom was sufficient, and it's my understanding that this it the norm in Puerto Escondido.

Casa Mava is a very zen hotel. The rustic modern design aesthetic is well done, and the stand out for me is the massive shower in my room with a skylight.

Stayed in February 2025

Not the hotel's fault, but we stayed in a room below the pool/rooftop. We stayed in that room on our first visit as well without issue. On this visit, we could hear other guests moving furniture upstairs and talking loudly. Just inconsiderate guests, not an issue with the hotel.

This was our second stay at Casa Mava. The staff is very friendly and very accommodating. It's always very clean. The shower and the toiletries are amazing. The pool is a nice spot to relax. No tele's in the rooms so it's quiet and very tranquil, as long as the other guests follow suit :) The bed was very comfortable.

We stayed at Casa Mava for our babymoon and had an amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed—the hospitality was incredible. The hotel is beautifully designed with so much thought put into every detail, and unlike some places that look great in photos but aren’t functional, Casa Mava strikes the perfect balance of style and comfort. Our villa was spacious and well-appointed, with a super comfortable bed and a private pool that we absolutely loved. The rooftop pool was another highlight—a perfect spot to relax and unwind. We also really appreciated the gym, which was well-equipped and a great addition to our stay. One of the things we loved most was having a kitchen to make breakfast and lunch, while still being able to walk to La Punta for amazing food. The neighborhood is quiet and full of charm, with great local spots just minutes away. We especially loved Nasiva, just a two-minute walk from the hotel, which has the best fish tacos in the world! There are also plenty of little shops nearby for groceries, and we really enjoyed visiting Zicatela Mercado for fresh ingredients and other essentials. It was great to be able to support smaller, family-owned businesses in the area—it really added to the experience. Beyond the hotel itself, the location was fantastic, making it easy to explore while always looking forward to coming “home” to our little oasis. We spent four wonderful nights here and couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate this special time. Highly recommend Casa Mava to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway!

Truly amazing. Location just outside of bar area so not in the noise, but walkable (10 min) if you do want to go. Brand new, super clean and staff very welcoming. Pool is super nice. Best stay guaranteed

Exceeded expectations, so clean, reasonably priced, and truly amazing. Just far enough from the craziness, but still so close to the beach. Would absolutely stay again. Luis managed the property and was SO helpful-- he gave us tips, made sure our stay was comfortable, stored our luggage, etc. He truly made the experience wonderful!

I enjoyed my stay very much. To future guests, please be aware that the rooms have no sound isolation so sometimes you may hear guests passing by if they are too loud. Same with neighboring guests, particularly in the private pool area. Overall, noise was not a concern to me, but for some people it may be. One feedback item is that for my personal preference the mattress and pillows were too soft. Nonetheless, I rested beautifully but needed to pile up the pillows so I wouldn't end up with a sore neck.

Excellent stay at Casa Mava. Fernando and Luis are extremely attentive and eager to accommodate one's requests. The hotel is extremely well located, in a quiet area with good restaurants nearby (to make up for the fact that the hotel does not provide any food services). Very close to the beach (a 3 minute walk) and also a 10-15 minute walk away from Punta Zicatela where more restaurants, bars and shops are located. Fernando welcomes you with detailed orientations regarding how to move in Puerto Escondido, what to do and his recommended spots. The hotel pool is delightful and comfortable with a small living area to rest and enjoy a sunny afternoon. My room was in excellent condition, it included a private swimming pool which I enjoyed very much. Decorations were very tasteful and allowed for a very pleasant rest. The shower is amazing, very illuminated and great water pressure, feels like showering outdoors. I also enjoyed very much the complimentary toiletries from Vervan, excellent choice. If you wish to cook, the room has a fully-equipped kitchen. The room has its own private wi-fi which is ultra convenient if you have to devote a couple of hours to working remotely as I had to. Definitely will come back and highly recommend!

The location is alright. It’s between La Punta and Zicatela

The vibe inside was beach meets desert. The hosts were really friendly and helpful. Luis was really great. The hotel management knows how to run a hotel business. They were doing everything right. No complaints at all!

Everything. The property is new and immaculate. Cleaning is constant and thorough. Rooms are comfortable and spacious. Fantastic rooftop swimming pool area. Staff is amazing: Fernando, the manager, and his son are the kindest and most helpful people you may wish to find when on holiday!

Liked everything!

A beautiful beautiful place to stay! The pool is incredible, the rooms and gorgeous, and the staff are so nice! I loved the location, very very quiet at night but not too far from La Punta, where the majority of restaurants and bars are. Can’t wait to come back!

Although Casa Mava is a short walk away from the hubs of La Punta and Zicatela, the immediate surrounding area is still in a state of development which means at night time you’ll find yourself walking along dirt roads with very little light. Solo travellers should consider this.

There has been so much thought and attention to detail put into Casa Mava. They have really thought of everything - from a shower downstairs so you can wash the sand off you before you go to your room to providing parasols. We stayed at a few places in Mexico and this was our favourite. Our room was beautiful and we loved all the fantastic smelling products provided, you can tell they are high quality. We felt like we could go to Fernando for anything, he was so welcoming and helpful. We also really liked the pool area and spent a lot of time there - only thing missing is a bar!

Everything is absolutely perfect and gorgeous!

Casa Mava Mava is THE best place to stay in Puerto Escondido. The place is fabulous and absolutely perfect. It has wonderful and meaningful Mexican decoration with an amazing and elegant style. Casa Mava is 5 min away to La Punta, 10 min away from Zicatela and a block away from the beach which makes it even a better place to stay. They offer beach towels, umbrellas and all you need to make your stay a wonderful experience. The pool area is fantastic and relaxing. Fernando, the manager is an amazing host, extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He has great recommendations to do around. I highly recommend this place because it is simply perfect and it has all you need. Casa Mava, feels like home. Thank you for everything, staying here was the best experience ever!! We will definitely recommend it and we will stay here again when visiting Puerto Escondido.

The Flavors of soap and shower gel. I didn’t like it. They smelled like cheap product. It was the only thing that upset me those days

Very stilish and clean

Not staying more time.

Everything was exceptional there, every detail. Beautiful architecture, the most comfortable bed, the facilities, everything was of the highest quality. Fernando was the best host I've ever met. He was always available to help in the kindest way.

Everything about our stay was perfect. Fernando our host was a fantastic communicator. The location was incredible. In the middle of la Punta and zicatela so nothing felt to far to walk but was away from the noise. Our rooms were new, always clean and the staff were so helpful with any requests

Stayed in February 2024

Nothing - everything was pretty good.

The property is brand new with awesome rooms. There’s a parking lot, a good WiFi and pool. Fernando is a kind person, who shared with us some tips of what to do in the city, best restaurants and tours. It’s well located (just one block from the beach), a quiet street and just 7 minutes from Puerto Escondido center (by car). There’s no breakfast included, but there’s a Cafe just a 5-minute-walk from the hotel that was surprisingly tasty.
