Oaxacan home w/ palapa, sea view

Summary:

Handmade brick cupolas, colorful Oaxacan tile and a private palapa with ocean views make this single-level 3-bedroom home in El Faro one of the most distinctive stays in Puerto Escondido. Two of the three bedrooms have king beds. The only shared spaces are the garden and a pool used by just six homes. The stairs down to Playa Manzanillo are about 10 minutes on foot. Great for families and groups of friends.



The Space:

All three bedrooms sit around an open-plan living room, dining area and kitchen, and the home is on one level. Only the palapa is up a set of stairs.



Bedrooms: the main bedroom has a king bed, its own bathroom and a handmade brick cupola that keeps the room cool. The second bedroom has a king bed and air conditioning, the only air conditioner in the house. The third bedroom has two twin beds. There are ceiling fans, portable fans and room-darkening shades.



Bathrooms: two full bathrooms with shampoo and a hair dryer.



Kitchen: bright Mexican tile, a stove, oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, toaster and coffee maker, plus cookware and a dining table.



Outdoors: the private palapa looks out to the ocean. There's also a sunny terrace by the entry, an outdoor kitchen, a BBQ grill and beach essentials.



Extras: washer and dryer, TV, Wi-Fi and a spot to work on your laptop.



Guest Access:

The whole home is just for you, including the palapa. The only shared areas are the garden and the pool, which six homes share. Secure, gated parking is right outside.



The Neighborhood:

A quiet residential pocket of El Faro, a couple of minutes on foot from Mirador Un Sueño Posible. The stairs down to Playa Manzanillo are about 10 minutes on foot. There are a few restaurants nearby, though not enough to make noise at night, and the Rinconada is about 20 minutes on foot.



Getting Around:

You can call a taxi, walk to the corner of 5a Sur and 3a Poniente to grab one, or walk up to the main road to catch a colectivo. If you're driving, there's secure, gated parking right outside the home and free parking on the street.
