Beachfront Open-Air Oasis

** Rates listed include up to 12 guests. Additional guests will be subject to a fee of $50 USD + IVA per night per guest **

A beachfront masterpiece offering an expansive setting for group and family vacations. Hosted by My Huatulco Vacation, complete with six bedroom suites, all offering ocean views, this home comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests.

Boasting unique features such as its artfully crafted handmade dining table and two-tiered palapa roof, this expansive estate is a standout along the coast.

This home offers a remote oceanfront feeling while being only minutes from town. Take a walk on the beach to a secluded lagoon just minutes away or watch the waves for whales, dolphins, rays and turtles. With an onsite property caretaker and housekeeper, you will enjoy the feeling of being truly pampered.

The fully equipped kitchen will provide a great setting to take advantage of the Oaxacan culinary delights. With the option to hire a cook for the week, you can decide how much time you want to spend preparing meals or lounging in the sunny outdoor spaces.

The open-air living and dining spaces make it possible for you to continuously enjoy the tropical setting. Towering over the expansive central great room exists the handcrafted central palapa, an example of a true local art form. This space opens up to the ocean front private pool. Here you can soak up the warm southern sun on one of the many poolside loungers.

The villa is located about 20 minutes from the Puerto Escondido Airport just off the highway in the quaint, secluded La Parota neighborhood while still being close enough to the city and Zicatela Beach to enjoy all they have to offer. The villa is grand enough to enjoy the whole gang all together, or sneak away to a quiet nook to relax by yourself.

PLEASE NOTE: This property cannot accommodate events, unless coordinated and approved by the owners in advance of arrival. All guests and visitors must be registered in advance and approved by My Huatulco Vacation's Guest Services Team.

Amazing place, amazing experience

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is amazing, and more than we expected. The service from house personal was exceptional and their attitude and disposition make our days more enjoyable. The only opportunity we identified is the concierge service. In general it was complicated to get in touch and have a continuous communication; and agreeing on the final prices and additional services was also complicated. I noticed there is always an "effort" to charge you more for anything, even simple things.Watch out, the house is like 30min from "La Punta" (restaurants), so plan that in your stay and transportation and you will avoid any frustration. Overall, it was amazing and I would differently recommend and repeat.

This vacation will be very hard to top!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was even prettier than the pictures, and that’s saying a lot. A group of us came together for our 40th birthdays and we had the most amazing time. We didn’t leave the house much because the staff cooked better than anywhere we tried and we didn’t want to keep trying random places, knowing we had the best at our finger tips. The rooms were beautiful and most of them had immaculate views. There were 11 of us, but it never felt like we were crowded because the house is so open and expansive. There was always a new place to hang out around the property for morning coffee, sunset drinks and all the things. We had fun playing in the ocean and the pool. Mauricio was a very kind and patient host, and was always quick to answer any of the millions of questions I had and arrange anything we needed. I really don’t know how I’ll ever top this entire experience. I plan to try another one of their rentals in the future for a smaller group!

Great Location, but concerns

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house and location were wonderful. The house was right on a beautiful beach and the rooms were lovely. One big problem was that the rental company were unprofessional. For example, they did not show up at check in as promised and that made the process very hard. We were never told there was a code needed to enter the gate for the house. This was after telling us we would have to pay $50 if we were late. Plus, there was no information on how to navigate the house such as an information book on logistics. We have rented houses in the area for many years and this was never our experience before. Further, the prices the company wanted to charge for meals was ridiculous and we ended up hiring our own amazing chef.

Casa serenidad

This ocean front beach property is beautiful , just steps away from the sand and ocean, although it needs a little bit of maintenance in some areas , we were happy and had a great time , service crew was very nice and helpful , some house items need to be upgraded ASAP , like bathroom towels and bed sheets are old and weary, another downside was that when it rains , in some rooms water poores thru the windows , food is just basic, nothing special , firts 2 days food was served in poor portions and we paid a lot of money for groceries . No hot water on the showers. Ice has to be purchased on demand. Menu is very limited, Staff is very kind and helpful but not well trained to serve. Mauricio the supposed Administrator never showed up when we asked him to come to the house because we had issues with the menu, a lot of extras with the shopping list. The cooker missed one day because she couldnt get to the house and no body was in the house to supevised the staff in the kitchen , they dont know how to cook that they menu and the administrator never came to the supervised. We have rented other houses in Oaxaca and we dont even have to ask for anything .Very bad client service from Mauricio.

Lovely Property with Concerns Over Management and Security

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed at this property, attracted by its beautiful amenities and scenic location. While the property itself met our expectations, there were aspects of our stay that were concerning.Management Practices: Our experience was significantly affected by the management's handling of services. The pricing for the "private chef services" was surprisingly high. As long-term residents of Mexico, we are well-versed in the typical cost of such services, and the prices quoted to us seemed excessive, especially given the quality of meals provided. This discrepancy was disappointing.Upon declining further chef services, we noticed a marked change in the staff's behavior, including restricted access to amenities like the washing machine. This felt unnecessarily punitive.However, after reaching out directly to the property owner, the situation improved. The owner offered revised pricing for the services and facilitated better interaction with the staff. While this resolution was appreciated, the initial approach by the management left much to be desired.Safety Concerns: Additionally, there was an incident that raised concerns about the property's security. At sunset, two unidentified individuals attempted to enter the property from the beach, claiming they wanted to take photos due to the home's beauty. This situation was swiftly handled by a guest and the house staff, but it did highlight potential security issues that need addressing.In conclusion, while the property is indeed lovely, the management practices and security concerns significantly impacted our overall experience. Future guests should be aware of these issues. We believe that with improvements in these areas, the property has great potential to offer a wonderful stay.

Experiencia

Muy bonita propiedad para ir con familiares y amigos. La experiencia de tener beachfront es muy agradable, además de que las amenidades/instalaciones de la propiedad son muy buenas. Sin embargo, quisiera resaltar que se nos hizo muy complicado el proceso de gestión y contacto con los administradores, para todo es un cargo extra y tienen sobre precios incluso para el servicio de chef y servicio de super. Además, de las 11 personas que acudimos al viaje, 5 se enfermaron del estomago. Por lo que el costo/beneficio del servicio de alimento no fue lo que esperabamos.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were a big group of 16. The house location is very good not too far away from Punta Zicatela. We hired the service of a cook fro the 3 days, and the quantity of the food was not enough, and whenever we asked her for more food she was not really kind. Apart from that and that one room needs a lot of maintainace everything was amazing. The house is great for big groups and the customer service was always nice and friendly solving any issue or concern.

Still dreaming about our beautiful stay at Villa Serenidad!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I chose Villa Serenidad to celebrate my 50th birthday with 15 of my closest girl friends. It was exactly what I had envisioned and more!! The house is beyond gorgeous and the location idyllic. It felt like we were the only ones on the beach because we rarely saw anyone else for days. The service and food were delicious. The rooms really spacious and well kept with all the amenities. Make sure you plan in advance with the staff to have your meals, drinks and snacks all stocked because you really won’t want to leave once you arrive. I’m definitely ready to go back.

Rooms are spacious and property is kept very clean. Amelia and team are absolutely incredible - I can't say enough good things! They are wonderful with our kids, very accommodating to such a big group and the food is always great. This year we arrived on the full the surf was a little stronger than normal...but we managed to get some good open time in near the end of our week. We just got back and already looking forward to 2023!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: La casa es muy bonita, se encuentra en buena ubicacion, y tiene acceso a la playa. La casa es comoda, con buena distribucion y excelente area para estar an la picina. Sin embargo le falta algo de mantenimiento. Los banos sucios, los sanitarios no bajan, las sobre camas rotas, etc... Al llegar a la casa nos recibio la encargada Yessi junto con las dos senoras que nos atenderian durante las 4 noches.La encargada Yessi ya nunca regreso ni tuvo comunicacion con nosotros y la senoras dos dieron un pesimo servicio y mal trato. La tercera noche se fue la luz y agua por toda la noche y nunca nos pudieron dar razon ni apoyo en resolver el problema. Se termino el agua potable, hielo, comida y no teniamos acceso a transporte y la encargada no nos consiguio. En resumen la casa muy bien pero el servicio pesimo. Por este motivo no recomendaria la casa.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is very beautiful and offers a comfortable stay. There are small aesthetic details that need to be addressed like outdoor Jacuzzi, outdoor grill, and minor paint details around the property. One major concern is the water filtration system is not working correctly. The bath water has a very strong pungent smell and this should be addressed immediately. Overall we had an excellent stay. The property manager was very attentive and helped coordinate in house services i.e. Cook, massage, yoga instructor etc. We would definitely stay here again in the future when details are fixed.

We weren't able to swim in the ocean due to rip currents, but that is okay. The floors are VERY slippery when wet, so be careful. Wonderful place if you are looking for seclusion (there are no markets/bars, etc within walking distance).

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our experience was just perfect! We spent two weeks in this beautiful house by the beach. The house is really big and comfortable, and the staff is super helpful. We were staying there for a corporate retreat, so we got the space and time to work but also have small breaks to take walks on the beach, swim in the ocean or just hang around the house. I'd definitely recommended to a friend, and would certainly like to stay there again in the future!
