About this property

Casa Zen is a paradise located in Oaxaca's Pacific Coast, in between the beach, mangrove marshes and lagoons. Located just 10 km away from Puerto Escondido, in the 6 Olas gated community. The house's architecture integrates local materials with modern design to generate a unique space that is in constant contact with nature.

The rental includes daily cleaning service and a local cook that can prepare the best local Oaxacan dishes. We also include ground transportation from the Puerto Escondido Airport to the house upon arrival.

The house has 2 private pools as well as a shared infinity pool that is right in front of the beach. The house is only a few steps away from the beach and one of the wonderful things about it as that this beach rarely has any people, making it feel private. There is a private outdoor grill, pizza over, wifi with a smart TV. Every room has AC and once the doors are shut no natural light comes in, providing wonderful sleep.

Wonderful/ beautiful

House is beautiful Grounds are beautiful The website says you can walk to markets- you can not Cabs are needed to get everywhere The only down side besides that is Rosa and ruth( who are amazing) are there from 830 till 5, so you are not alone They are great cooks and made us breakfast lunch every day They told us what to buy at the markets so they could cook for us If we did not go to the markets they would get the food and we had to pay for delivery All in all a wonderful experience The other two couple who have travelled with us at 6 other vacation spots rate is the best house we stayed in 10+ for all of us

DO NOT PASS UP THIS OPPORTUNITY!

I cannot overstate this... Casa Zen is amazing! We booked with a group of friends not quite knowing what to expect and were absolutely blown away! As you arrive you walk into what feels like an architectural marvel - a space clearly made from local materials but with the highest attention to detail and all clearly designed for comfort and relaxation. The views of the ocean are spectacular from the pools and deck, and the sound of the waves put us deeply to sleep every night. We booked this place for a surf trip for its proximity to some of the local surf breaks (a short drive to Zicatela and La Punta) but found ourselves having a hard time leaving home everyday as the accommodations were almost too hard to pull ourselves away from. Add spitting barrels on calm, glassy mornings right in front of the house - we felt like we had scored the best experience of any surf tourists all around! I can't not mention the staff... our group normally likes to cook our own meals and explore the local restaurant scene, but the staff at Casa Zen made it even harder to leave the house daily. For only the cost of groceries and a generous tip, the staff treated us to a plethora of local Oaxacan cuisine daily including tlayuda, mole, fresh dorado tacos, and many more snacks and drinks that we are still salivating for weeks after the trip. We weren't sure going into this trip if we would want to have staff around us all the time, but let me tell you, Rosie and Ruth were the cherry on top.

Absolute paradise!

Pictures don’t do the place justice! I have no words for how amazing Casa Zen is, from the design of the house to the location, the pools, even the towels!!! Rosi and Ruth were incredible, the food was delicious and they were very obliging about changing the meal schedule based on our plans. Walter was extremely helpful and the owner was always a WhatsApp away to answer any questions. Will definitely book again!
