Casa al Mar

At the centre of the property is a minimalist-style living space with a huge table, a bar and a seating area that looks out across a 30-metre-long pool. Here you’ll find a sunken bar, a jacuzzi tub and sun loungers that are almost immersed in the water. This overlooks a beach that feels almost completely private.

The layout of the bedrooms is simple but spacious — all of them are huge. There are two master suites that connect to private terraces overlooking the ocean and all feature private hammocks. The two bedrooms that don’t overlook the ocean have internal patios.

All of the rooms have super comfortable beds with hand-woven and embroidered Oaxacan linens. It’s all very high quality. Most of the bedrooms have either one king-size bed or two queens and there’s a kids’ room with two sets of bunks. 

Off the main living area is a TV/games room, so the house works well for families with kids. There’s so much space, so everyone can have their own area. On the beach are sunloungers where you can relax during the day and these are also illuminated at night.

Puerto Escondido is known for its surf culture and is a great place for enjoying beach life. There’s a long, sandy beach in the town that’s lined with cafes serving healthy breakfast bowls and smoothies, as well as some great seafood restaurants. I’d highly recommend tasting the oysters straight off the rocks at Playa Agua Blanca. 

Puerto Escondido also has quite a nightlife scene and the sunsets are amazing over the Pacific Ocean.
