The hype
Reviewers are universally obsessed with the views and the pool, often calling it the 'best place they've ever stayed' for the price.
Casa Roni - 5 Bedroom Luxury Villa with Ocean View
$150-250/ notte
Prenota se You want a private, cliffside sanctuary with infinity pool views that rival the Amalfi Coast, but at a fraction of the price.
Perché piace così tanto
- Stunning panoramic ocean views from almost every corner
- Quiet, secluded vibe just a 5-minute walk from Playa Estacahuite
- The saltwater infinity pool is a legitimate showstopper
In sintesi: A gorgeous architectural gem that forces you to trade accessibility for views—expect steep stairs, a cash-only neighborhood, and a strictly chill atmosphere.
Recensito da @samanthaweiss: I stayed at this incredible villa in Oaxaca and it was pure magic. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean is unreal, and the boho interiors made me never want to leave. It’s the perfect spot to just disconnect and relax.
