Very rural hotel that is family run. The hotel has several en-suite cabins in the grounds. The restaurant is in a separate building close to the entrance to the grounds. Very good Mixe and Mexican food menu and a great team working in the kitchen. The freshest food ingredients. The facilities are good but basic, good for the region and wanting to make a good contribution to the still developing local tourist industry. Cyclists and motorcyclists welcome. The town centre of Ayutla is ten minutes walk up the hill and has a good Sunday market, several small cafes and many good comedors (eating places). Ayutla is at high altitude and often cloudy first thing in the morning. When the cloud lifts you are rewarded with superb biews across the mountain landscape. I recommend this place if you want a few nights in a friendly rural hotel that serves as a base for visiting Mixe communties here in the mountains of very rural Oaxaca. Don Carlos and his family are great hosts with tremendous local cultural knowledge. Highly recommended.

Es un lugar muy acogedor y tranquilo, el restaurante está muy bien atendido y puedes encontrar un poco de todo, sin mencionar que el "Machucado" que es un platillo tradicional de la comunidad les queda exquisito. Super recomendado.
