The hotel is really nice and relaxing. Close to the beach with a great pool and excellent service. My only complaint would be that there is no point in having an ac since the doors and windows don’t fully close and the room never gets cold, it is actually pretty hot almost unbearable in the summer. Also the rooms feel a little old and in need of maintenance

Beautiful setting. For any one looking for a lap pool this is your place. 50 meter pool along the ocean. Sunrise or sunset swims. Food was great, rooms quiet and clean and staff friendly

The hotel beat my expectations. Great rooms, with private area and plunge pool. Superb setting. Excellent pool located on the beach and perfect for exercise swimming. (Almost 25 meters). Lots of nice little touches such as free fruit and cold water. Brilliant to see no single use plastic. Toiletries were all refills and no plastic water bottles were seen. Well done. Only issue was the dinning time. You can’t eat before 8pm on the meal plan. This is very late especially with time zone change. I felt hungry and tired every night, so this needs to be reviewed. There was no flexibility and you can see many guests sitting at the table from 19:30 waiting to get the orders for food. Service was also hit and miss depending who you got. Brush up on your Spanish. !

An absolute dream of a place. The design, location and atmosphere - all excellent. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed. If I had to think of minuses - the dinner at the hotel was a little inelegant and averagely tasting. And the other thing - they actively try to make money of you off small things. The location is very isolated ( which was great), but it makes it hard to reach shops et.c. Make sure you take sun cream, your favourite snacks and anything you might need - otherwise expect to pay.

Zero maintenance, not in accordance to the rates… wouldn't recommend it

Hotel Escondido is an absolute gem – perfect for a getaway where all you want to do is relax in a beautiful place. It's pretty far from other main beaches like Zicatela and Carrizalillo (but the beach the property is on is gorgeous (can't swim in it though bc of the strong waves). Staff is so nice and on top of it, rooms are great, and the food is yummy. Dinner is a rotating menu but we were pleasantly surprised at the variety of the mains and quality of desserts (they served garlicky fish one night and fettuccini the next). Cocktails are amaaazing and go very well with a long swim in the pool that overlooks the private beach. Def want to come back!

Location is very remote with a long secluded stretch of beach with a few small houses here and there. A great rocky portion is on one end of the beach and fun to climb and watch local fishermen. Also, the Manialtepec Lagoon is right down road, and excellent for kayaking and bird watching.

Amazing hotel in terms of location and atmosphere. However, many smaller details weren't satisfactory. Given the high cost of the hotel, I did expect better service and more flexibility from the staff. The staff did not assist reservations to Casa Wabi or the hotel's Omakase restaurant (even though they promised to do so when we arrived). No laundry services available ("it's broken, sorry"). Location is amazing. So is the pool. Food is very good. There were some complaints that the bar lacked basics (like Bailey's) but that wasn't a big deal for us. Overall this is an excellent place to stay, just keep your expectations in check.

The property is located about a mile of the main road. Making it a very quiet place. all of the guest accommodations are thatched roof stand alone cottages. The staff were very nice. Do watch out for couple of things. A: Check the bills that one signs for things like drinks, food etc. Got charged for cigarettes and drinks, that were not ordered. The front desk staff reversed the charges. But had to sign a paper saying that all of the disputed items were not consumed by me. That tells me that charging for things not ordered by the guests is a common practice. B: Got the stomach bug. So please come prepared with Pepto or similar medicine

Beautiful place, great food and design but lacking in basic services ( a/c was out for entire first day without any acknowledgement from staff. Hot water was sparse ( rarely available) and lighting in the room abysmal (couldn’t read my book!). No manager around. Staff is sweet but often young and inexperienced. Not fault of hotel but no swimming in ocean ( too rough). Hotel pool is glorious, though. All in all, a good experience but be ready for a few snafus.

We stayed for one week. The hotel is super easy going, the staff is very nice. The food is extremely good and the location of the property is amazing. Kilometers of white sandy beaches, very secluded and relaxing location. It’s great for a week to relax, enjoy beautiful sunrises and sunsets or go for a surf. The massages in the so are exceptionally good. We will come back!

The setting is amazingly beautiful and tranquil, but there isn’t much to do except hang out near pool as the location is isolated. The staff is very friendly and attentive, especially Eric who is terrific. The food is delicious and the drinks go down easy. However I wish there were meat options as the menu is mostly seafood, which I don’t eat due to allergies. With that said, we have been here before, enjoyed being here again, and will be back ASAP.

Hotel Escondido is simply too notch overall. Ana - the concierge- sent a pre arrival welcome email to ensure everything was set up for us for arrival including the hotels shuttle. This place is a perfect retreat from the busyness of town life. It's rather remote which makes it authentic and beautiful however you'll either need a rental car or to take the hotel shuttle to get to the town about 45 minutes away. Hower we found really no need to go to toe other than one day just to see the other beaches and a different experience. The bungalows are private yet not to far apart and the sheet /bed quality are 4start hotel quality. You are sung to sleep at night by the local birds and frogs. It was a bit of a shock the first night and then I learned to love it. Do get the half board option it is 100% worth it. The breakfast was very good but the dinner was amazing. Yes amazing. Saul the chef makes unique yet tasty experiences every evening. Also, let the hotel schedule the horse back riding and hot spring for you. It is done by a local family who owned several lovely horses and you ride through almost untouched scenery en route to a private hotspring.
