Villa Mozart y Macondo

The good- location is great. The garden is beautiful. The room was clean. There is a king bed and fridge in the room. Dali housekeeping. Saul gave good recommendations The bad and the ugly- to close the door of the room after you enter, a key is needed. So inconvenient. It won’t stay shut otherwise. The main entrance door is also locked after sunset that you then have to lock and unlock every time. Feels more like an Airbnb than a hotel. They don’t have a terminal that works with tap (in 2025!). So much miscommunication with the staff. Angelica and Alejandra. They agreed for a 45 min late checkout that later they denied and deleted old WhatsApp messages (so petty). Eventually they honored it but gave a hard time. If you want to leave your bags after checkout, which is pretty standard, no one will be there from 4-7. That too, we aligned on in advance which they tried to push back on for the time. There is no front desk. Communication is with WhatsApp, which they would delete later if they want to change their minds! For two days and two people they gave 1 tiniest body soap. For the money paid, this place left much to be desired and all the back and forth with the communication was really unwelcoming and not hospitable.

The location is perfectly situated close to beautiful beaches to walk to and many wonderful restaurants--and is yet very quiet and peaceful at the same time. The garden is meticulously maintained and you feel like your in a tropical jungle. ||Rooms are top notch with great AC and ventilation, and balconies overlooking the gardens. And most importantly, the bed felt like a cloud in heaven!||Make sure to ask Angélica for her recommendations for restaurants and in-room massage services. I was craving pizza and she recommended La Galería, where I promise you will savor the best pizza you have ever had!||The next time I am in the Puerto Escondido area, I will return without question.

We spend two nights in this beautiful location by playa Carrizalillo. The rooms are surrounded by vegetation and gives you the feeling to be in the jungle. Two cats and tropical birds live here too.||Location is very convenient, right by the access to playa Carrizalillo and the main street with restaurants (we recommend El Cafecito, fast and competitive prices).||Rooms are not too big but it was more than enough for us. They have a fan and airco, as well as a refrigerator. Beds are comfortable and king size. ||The hosts were very warm with us, giving us tips on the beaches we should visit, and arranged a taxi for our way on the airport for 130$, which would have been impossible of stopping a taxi on the street.||Breakfast are not included but are good; locals stop by prior to heading to the beach.

I recently had a wonderful stay at this charming hotel just a stone's throw away from Carrizalillo Beach. As a budget-conscious traveler who came mostly for surfing, I found the economical room option to be perfectly adequate—nice and clean, with everything I needed. Between surf sessions, I thoroughly enjoyed lounging in the gorgeous garden, a tranquil oasis that complemented the beautiful surroundings. The breakfasts were delightful, offering a great start to each day, and the owner's kindness truly made me feel at home. The room options were beautiful, with a fantastic view of the garden. Adding a delightful twist to my stay, I found the exact book I had forgotten to bring at home in the hotel’s guest collection! This place is a gem for anyone looking for a comfortable and friendly place to stay near the beach

We just spent 5 days here and it was wonderful! Our hostess was awesome. The grounds were beautiful as were the resident parrots and of course the cat Mimi! It is very conveniently located to restaurants and beaches. We highly recommend this hotel.

We spent 5 nights at Villa Mozart and Macondo and loved it. The tropical garden is beautiful and provides a feeling of tranquility as you wander around the lush green vegetation and feel like the only person there. Our room was very clean and the staff are lovely - always smiling and helpful. The breakfasts are also very tasty. ||It's a quiet location but very close to many little shops, bars and restaurants as well as a short walk to the gorgeous Carrizilillo beach. Definitely recommend a stay here.

Beautiful and quiet rooms, comfy bed, heavenly garden with lots of exotic plants, scrumptious breakfasts and very friendly service. Centrally located with 5-7 min walking distance from the beach and restaurant area. Exceed my expectations in everything. Enjoyed my stay there very much.

Positive - The bungalow is located in a beautiful garden setting. Esthetically very pleasing. The location is great, about as close as you can get to Playa Manzanillo and right close up to the shopping and restaurants on the main drag in Rinconada. The room was adequately cleaned every day.|Negative - 'll put it this way: We were paying a 4 star hotel price for what was at best a "quirky" Airbnb or higher end room at an eccentric hostel. The bungalow had maintenance issues. The mini fridge desperately needed defrosting, you couldn't use the freezer. If their goal is "pretty", that just looks bad. Moving to the bathroom, the shower head wasn't working properly and spraying water all over the place. I asked the maintenance guy and he fixed it, in fairness. Kitchen is outside, that's not a problem. The mini stove is operated with gas, we're not used to that and had to be shown how, The stove eventually stopped working. No microwave-in this day and age, a hotel kitchenette with no microwave? They're cheap, even in Mexico. Again, we paid a lot of money, we're not talking about camping fees here. Management was difficult to deal with and ineffectual. Every one of the above issues we brought to management was met with a long discussion and excuses. I speak Spanish, so it wasn't like we weren't understanding each other. The process for defrosting the fridge was so unnecessarily complicated that we gave up on that one. We were issued one large kitchen knife. We asked for a smaller paring knife and the answer was nope, one knife only. Then that knife was so rusted that it fell apart in our hands. We asked a different person, the maintenance guy for a new one and he got us one right away. He was actually reasonable to deal with. The first night watchman was weird and made my wife uncomfortable. One morning, he was operating the leaf blower at 6 am. We complained to the proprietor about him, she looked at us like we were the problem. We were admonished for running air con and fans in 32 degrees Celsius heat. Criticize us? For what we paid? Fix your problems first before you admonish your guests. When we booked, there was a no refunds policy. We had to pay the full amount of our stay when we walked in the door.
