Santa María Zoquitlán Vacations from $990

Very nice little hotel on the outskirts Centro of Oaxaca. The access is easy, location perfect, breakfast on the main floor and you can charge it to your room. Rooms are basic but clean and modern. However be prepared that the staff doesn’t really speak English. Hidden gem- an open roof with a 360 view of Oaxaca. It’s my third year I’m staying at this hotel.

The staff was very welcoming.

This is a beautiful, small hotel with a staff that is beyond friendly, warm, helpful, professional, and kind. It was like being with family, in only the best way. We loved our room (#5), the lovely neighborhood, the fabulous breakfasts, the sound of the fountain in the quiet courtyard, and above all, the service. Maricela, Emanuel and Gabriel made us feel that we never wanted to leave. They are very sweet, very special human beings.

Our family was obsessed with the large property thanks to its perfect layout for family gatherings, breakfasts around the enormous dining table, and relaxing evenings on the rooftop. The neighborhood wasn't the sexiest but the house was a short 10 minute taxi ride to central Oaxaca. The hosts were amazing and easy to communicate with which made our family vacation relatively stress free.
