The ocean view was incredible, close to the beach to hear the waves from your balcony at night gave me complete relaxation I was looking for. Food/Drink menu you couldn't go wrong with any selection. Best dinner I enjoyed was the Catch of the Day. All staff was helpful and attention to our needs. Look forward to coming back soon.

Very relaxing and very clean. The only bad I can say is that they don’t have coffee until the staff comes to work, which is about 7:15am. I am a morning person and like to walk on the beach with coffe. Everything else is good. Probably will not stay here again.

It was not clear to me that this beach wasn’t swimmable, the room was okay but the bathroom is very small and while the staff was very kind the price is too high for what you get.

A lovely stay

Casa Joseph has thought of everything, to sunscreen and aloe caddies bright to the beach cabanas to having daily yoga/fitness offerings. The rooms are gorgeous and comfortable. 15 minute walk to either end of the beach where there are commercial areas with shops and restaurants.

Amazing hotel, everything is super clean, modern, new and right in front of the beach. Staff is super friendly! There’s not much to do near the hotel, so if your plan is to party please reconsider, but if your plan is to relax and enjoy the beach this hotel is perfect for you. I’m coming back for sure!

Beautiful luxury stay

Really pretty spot and food. Rooms are clean and excellent air conditioning. We were very grateful for the attentive staff. Food was a bit on the pricer side compared to the local restaurants near by but reasonable given the convenience and high quality. Location was perfect for us as we wanted to be close to La Punta and Zicatela. On site ATV rental was very fun and convenient. Would return :)

The property was beautiful and the service was excellent. The food was delicious. We would definitely return. We wish there was a sandwich option provided in the evening. Also, railings on the staircases. We loved the room amenities, the beach bags and straw hats saved us! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Amazing Gem in Puerto Escondido

Wonderful stay, wonderful hotel, love the attention to detail. The staff was fantastic and so was the food. The only flaw: the toilet in the room is not actually separated from the room itself - as the wall doesn't go the full height. Which means no privacy when using the toilet and someone else is in the room... neither ventilation... Could be solved easily with a glass partition or simply extending the wall all the way to the cieling.
