Angelica and her team are the heart and soul of Villa Mozart y Macondo.
Tucked in a little jardin, this hotel doesn't feel like a hotel and more of like a local community. During my time in Puerto, I've realized that a lot of real-time gentrification and colonization is happening and many companies and restaurants are owned by "extrajeros" aka non-locals. You can proudly support this hotel because Angelica, Ale and all the staff members are locals.
Truly this spot is located just steps away from Playa Carizalillo. I wish I took more advantage of that during my two nights here. Regardless, I loved that I was closer to "El Centro" compared to my time in La Punta. The room I had was the closest to the cafe, so I woke up when the staff members got to work and the morning cafe music started to play to welcome diner and residents. Their chocolate con agua caliente is not to be dismissed. It is LOVELY and so frothy. Best chocolate con agua I had in Puerto hands down.
My room was clean,  bed was two smaller twins pushed together, but definitely very spacious for a solo traveller. Shower and sink were all together with the toilet, but I was used to smaller/tight quarters during my stay in Oaxaca de Juarez, so this was pretty nice. Water heats up after a few mins, and I always felt cool after a cold shower and the fan on. Such a special place, not bougie, very laid-back, and you'll be treated like a member of the family. Gracias para todo Angie y familia!
