Hotel Escondido

Sixteen spare bungalows on Oaxaca's Pacific coast, where the design is minimal-rustic and the surfing is the point. This adults-only boutique hotel from Grupo Habita trades urban polish for barefoot isolation, though the bar and pool lounge suggest the team never fully left the city behind. Local seafood at the restaurant, kayaks on the water, and a stretch of coast that surfers have known about for a while.
