Villada Inn

A hidden gem! Villada offers bare bones rooms with wonderful amenities and hospitality. I needed a night away from the city and chose Villada Inn for its lovely pool and location. Villada Inn is tucked up in the Oaxaca City hills on a quiet street surrounded by mountain views. The owner, and the innkeeper/cook and her daughter handle the day-to-day operations. The innkeeper greeted me upon arrival and allowed me to check in early to take advantage of the pool. My lunch and dinner was made to order by the Zapoteca innkeeper. She cooks the most amazing mole! There's a small on-site chapel, temescal, studio/meeting room and new bar area. The bar area is not yet open. It also looks like they are still renovating. ||I must also mention there was a rainstorm during dinner which provided a once in a lifetime experience that I'll never forget. The innkeeper and her daughter were always making sure I was happy and comfortable. ||I hated to leave and already planning my next visit. Love you, Villada!

La Villada Inn Hostel is out of town into a quiet residential area. It’s in a quiet and peaceful location in Oaxaca and once you walk in there is accommodation and the swimming pool.||We had a basic room and it was fine, clean and with plenty of space and there was a sitting area under the veranda outside.||There is a pool with seating around and from here there is a great view to the mountains.||We had a tasty cooked breakfast with sweet black coffee and the food is cooked to order. There are pleany of places to sit and relax and at the time of writing in the room where we ate there are tables for people to eat around and there is graffiti all over the wooden beams etc. of people who have stayed here before.||Relaxing and peaceful and easy to get transport into town, would be happy to stay there again.

QUIET AND SIMPLE ! Is my first time in Oaxaca city and I had recommendation from my friend to visit this beautiful cabañas. I am very happy I did go over here and enjoyed amazing views of Oaxaca city. They also have a pool and stuff is very friendly and flexible. No TV ( perfect for your quality time ) I will definitely coming back again

We had a fantastic stay for 8 nights, We slept better here than anywhere else that we have traveled in the last 3 weeks. The room we had was spacious, clean and comfortable, with a hammock, & beautiful garden. But the best thing about Villada were the people, we were greeted with such sincerity and warmth. The view from the dining room is of majestic mountains,& coffee always served with a smile. I totally recommend the Mexican breakfast omelette truly delicious. Juliette went out of her way to help us when my son was sick, she bought the doctor to our room, acted as an interpreter, an is very genuinely kind. I’m hoping we get to return on day. Would definitely recommend.

Sometimes a place has better pictures than it actually ends up being. This is the opposite- better than expected, and it already looked great. It is "simple", but a very relaxing and unique experience that really worked for us to relax and unwind. Sitting in the hammock, looking at the mountains over Oaxaca, feeling the pleasant breeze blow, really helped me recharge and center myself after a long week on the road. Chatting with the hosts was very kind and pleasant. They are helpful without being intrusive. Julietta speaks perfect English, and YaYa is a wonderful and kind older lady with dignity and a beautiful smile. This is a great place. Be warned- the drive up is a challenge. If you have a lowered sports car, you might hate trying to get here. We liked it so much we changed our plans and stayed another day.

fantastic experience. Get to know the actual culture and how things are in Mexico. The food, the culture, their whole way of life. Family run and friendly. on sight food prep traditional dishes of Mexico. City center easy access by taxi.. things to see and do within walking distance. I felt completely safe in everything I did. The local people were friendly and helpful. In a hostel setting, you meet many young travelers from Europe, Australia, and the US. very friendly and like to talk. All costs are very reasonable and affordable.

It's a very nice place to stay when you want to relax. with the swimming pool and the chill vibe the stress just melts away, the staff is friendly, the place is neat and the food is amazing. The very nice owner takes time to talk with you and recommend you all kind of tours. All by all, we enjoyed our stay a lot. It's a bit far from the city center, but for us it was perfect to get away from the busy city. we were by car so it was easy to get there.

I've been here 2 times. Once was in 2012 and 2013. The very first one was with my husband and the second one with my in-laws (8 pp).||They have an amazing staff, always attentive and willing to help you. They have information and they also offer tours.||The place has a big pool that you can enjoy before or after your touristic activities.||THe rooms are rustic and clean. You can listen to the crickets during the night. The landscape of Oaxaca City is amazing.||It is 10 minutes away from downtown (by car). I wouldn't walk because of the steep hills.
