As a nomad who is always looking for the best experiences around the world, I have been fortunate to stay in boutique hotels in Europe, Asia and many other destinations.
My friends had recommended Puerto Escondido to me and of course I had it on my bucket list. Finally, I decided to make this paradise my next destination, and Raíz was my choice.
From the moment I arrived at the hotel, the welcome was warm and genuine. The team made me feel at home, something you rarely experience from the first greeting. I was greeted with a Donají, their welcome cocktail, a classic of the house with a delicious tropical flavour. The architecture and design of the hotel blends perfectly with the local atmosphere, giving it a unique and welcoming touch.
The first thing I would like to highlight is the quality of the food and drinks at Hotel Raíz. Each dish is a fusion of Oaxacan flavors and presentations that seem to have come straight from an art gallery.
The breakfast was simply irresistible, abundant and varied, accompanied by a delicious coffee. And of all the dishes, I'd go for the enchiladas with mole coloradito, which are without a doubt the signature dish of the house .
One of the most memorable moments was the mezcal tasting organized at the hotel. This experience was unique, showing me the richness and diversity of this Oaxacan distillate. Trying it with fruits and salts was a true explosion of flavors.
The Raíz Hotel is a true oasis of peace. Despite being a small place, it is very cozy and full of corners where you can relax.
From the pool next to the bar, ideal for enjoying drinks, to the palapa on the top, which was almost always empty and I could enjoy that magical place just for myself. But my favorite moments were undoubtedly the yoga classes I enjoyed every morning, included in the reservation.
The rooms have a unique decoration, which keeps alive the essence of the Puerto Escondido of yesteryear. Every detail is thought out to offer comfort and authenticity. The cleanliness and care were impeccable, which made my stay even more pleasant.
Without a doubt, what made my stay unforgettable was the hotel team. Every member of the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I felt like I was spending time with friends rather than hotel employees.
My time at Raíz has come to an end, but I leave with the certainty that I will return. This place not only offered me a relaxing and comfortable stay, but it also made me feel part of its community. The memories I take with me from Puerto Escondido and this beautiful hotel will be with me forever.
