Our suite, Room 6, is the whole two-story colonial casita pictured here. It’s incredibly private and spacious, and has great views of the pool and courtyard.
Casa Oaxaca’s courtyard is a serene sanctuary.
Chilaquiles for breakfast! The kitchen uses all local, traditional ingredients. Luckily for me, there were no grasshoppers on the menu (a local specialty).
The bedroom, with views onto the quiet courtyard.
Me enjoying having a flight of stairs in my suite.
Though too chilly too swim, enough sun to tan.
A vibrant poolside salad. Also recommended is Casa Oaxaca (the restaurant), which is in a separate building as the hotel.
Mercado Tlacolula de Matamoros finds.
The salsa doesn’t get any fresher.
There’s no lack of mezcal in Oaxaca; it shows up everywhere. Here it is in our tamarind margaritas.
One of the two bathrooms in our suite.
The service is exceptional, and the entire staff is so warm and friendly. Pedro (pictured here) lived in Westchester, NY for awhile, but is now back in Oaxaca.
Highs & Lows
-
The bedding was divine and locally-produced! We went to the weaver who made all the sheets and wanted to bring it all home!
-
The décor was sophisticated and right up my alley. As a photographer, I really appreciated how many photogenic moments there were in the hotel.
-
The location is ideally located in the center of Oaxaca, though it still maintains a peaceful environment inside.
