An awesome, wonderful bed and breakfast!This was truly the perfect spot for a relaxing, refreshing vacation. Tony and César were so helpful, giving us great advice for day trips. Tony’s breakfast each morning was truly a delight. Fresh food made with such care. We had six of the best days ever. What a treat! — Robin, U.S.; August 2024
Amazing place, 100% recommended. You really feel at home and the hosts are some of the kindest people I have ever met. —Salvador, Mexico City; August 2024
I absolutely loved staying at this hotel in Puerto Escondido. From the cat Mao to the beautiful rooftop sunset, this hotel was everything we hoped for from our weekend at the beach. Our hosts greeted us with such care when we arrived in a rain storm and helped us with everything we needed from recommendations for dinner to extra towels to calling us a taxi on our last day. Thank you so much for this amazing experience. — Neva, U.S.; August 2024
We had an incredible stay at Zandoyo Bed & Breakfast in Puerto Escondido. Tony, Mane and César went above and beyond to make our stay one to remember. The property is situated within an easy walk to multiple beaches, including Carrizalillo and Coral. A few other highlights include the delicious breakfast, Oaxacan coffee and a peaceful pool with shade from the mango tree. —Maximillian, Australia; July 2024
