Nice Zen Buda little beachfront hotel. Great staff. Basic rooms are small but clean and no AC, shared bathroom. Larger rooms have private bathroom and AC. Great pool. Good food too!
Most enjoyable stay of the places I stayed during my time on the Oaxaca Coast. Friendly and helpful service, pristine property and very comfortable and quiet rooms.
it was good service, nice employees, Omar, Rosy& Cristal were great to us. Food was really good.
Water heater not that good I only had 1 hot shower during a week period.
I highly recommend it because it is one of the best in the area, only a few has pool and it is well located, no stairs to get to the beach and it has a convenience store right in front.
Beautiful hotel right on the beach. Super friendly and knowledgable staff, great amenities, comfy beds and a lovely view of the coast. Highly recommend!
Excelente lugar, muy acogedor y tranquilo. Las instalaciones (club de playa y alberca) son increíbles. El personal es muy servicio, con algunas excepciones. Únicamente el área de oportunidad sería la comida.

Fotos engañosas y falta de detalles en descripción
Las fotos que se muestran son de las suites, no muestran fotos de las demás habitaciones y son muy pequeñas, el personal no usa cubre bocas ni sigue las medidas de sanidad, el servicio de restaurante es muy malo (aún peor en el turno de la noche). Las habitaciones de baño compartido no cuentan con aire acondicionado, ni caja de seguridad, ambos los mencionan en la descripción. Los pagos con tarjeta ahí tiene un 5% adicional que no menciona en ningún otro lado
El lugar esta increíble y súper bien ubicado, desde la playa se pueden ver increíbles atardeceres y la playa es muy buena para nadar. Las instalaciones muy cuidadas, limpias y crean un ambiente de paz. La actitud del personal podría ser mejor, desde las 9 am nos recordaron un par de veces que el check in es a las 12, cosa que ya sabíamos y que hace que te sientas presionado para desocupar la habitación.
Muy buena experiencia, el personal es amable y servicial, lo unico que puedo recomendar es el cambio de las llaves de los cuartos, son incomodas de usar.
El personal muy mal educado, groseras e ignorantes, se creen las dueñas, a excepción de un mesero que fue muy amable y hasta nos dijo que “así eran las recepcionistas y demás mujeres que laboran ahí “
