Princess Mayev – Beautiful hotel in Punta Santa Cruz

Guests love waking to the ocean views at Hotel Princess Mayev!

๐ŸŒŸRating: 9.2/10 |๐Ÿ“ Sector/Area: Punta Santa Cruz | ๐Ÿจ View on Booking.com

Just a 10-minute walk from Chahue Bay lies Hotel Princess Mayev. While not far from the beach, the walk is steep as one of the main attractions of Princess Mayev is its spectacular ocean view.

This hotel is great for those looking for something of excellent value, great ocean views, and just slightly off the beaten path.

โ€œStaff are beyond amazing – location is also excellent. Close to the beach and shops.โ€

Quinta Bella Huatulco – Best hotel in Chahue Bay

The Quinta Bella is a popular 4-star hotel on Chahue beach. The ocean-view rooms also feature private plunge pools, and the hotel boasts 5 popular restaurants on site.

One of the things I like about Quinta Bella is they offer a lot of evening programming that is open to the public, like live music on Fridays, and Monday Movies on the Beach!

We love going to the “Pelicula en la Playa” on Monday nights. The film is free for anyone to attend, and you can buy drinks and food from the Quinta Bella restaurants.

๐ŸŒŸRating: 8.8/10 |๐Ÿ“ Sector/Area: Chahue Bay | ๐Ÿจ View on Booking.com

The hotel is set in a beautiful location with easy access to the beach. The two pools are excellent and clean. The dining at the different restaurants is nice and the service was impeccable with friendly and helpful waiters and waitresses. The food is first class and some of the best I have ever tasted: beef, pork, lobster, and so on.

The view of the Holiday inn Huatulco from inside the Santa Cruz Marina

๐ŸŒŸRating: 9.2/10 |๐Ÿ“ Sector/Area:ย La Bocanaย | ๐Ÿจ View onย Booking.com

Huatulco’s newest and most luxurious boutique hotel offers stunning views of one of my favourite beaches in Mexico – Playa La Bocana.

Located at the very edge of the district of Huatulco, Hotel Casa Bocana was designed to bring nature and luxury together, without losing its Mexican roots.

Lovely Hotel just near the Bocana beach. From most rooms you can see the sea and hear it as well which we liked. Nicely designed and furnished we also enjoyed the swimming pool. Our room was well equipped, spacious and comfortable in every way. Next time we will stay longer.ย

๐ŸŒŸRating: 9/10 |๐Ÿ“ Sector/Area: Santa Cruz Huatulco | ๐Ÿจ View on Booking.com

A familiar hotel chain to many, the Holiday Inn Huatulco has all the comforts of familiarity, including housing Huatulco’s only Starbucks!

The Holiday Inn offers proximity to Santa Cruz beach and amenities, a view of the harbour, and the added bonus of being one of Huatulco’s few pet-friendly hotels!


This is the third stay at this property and it always delivers. The breakfast is amazing, it’s very clean, the rooms and beds very comfortable and the staff is always kind and helpful. It’s a great location to easily walk into town or the grocery store. Quick taxi rides to all the beaches. I’ve been here alone and with my partner and I always feel safe and comfortable.

Casa Oaxaqueรฑa

Casa Oaxaqueรฑa in Huatulco is known for its colourful decor and comfortable accommodations
Beautifully decorated in Oaxacan colours and fabrics, Casa Oaxaqueรฑa is a great option for a boutique hotel experience!

๐ŸŒŸRating: 8.8/10 |๐Ÿ“ Sector/Area: Sector M | ๐Ÿจ View on Booking.com

Beloved for its colourful, Oaxacan-inspired design, Casa Oaxaqueรฑa is the perfect fit for anyone looking for a boutique, Mexican hotel experience.

Casa Oaxaqueรฑa also offers guests the added independence of access to the kitchen, great for packing a picnic lunch for a day at the beach, or making a quick breakfast in the morning.

I liked this place for its vibrant colorful Mexican design with a full kitchen at the guest’s disposal and it was close enough between center and at walking distance to the beach, 2 minutes walking to the supermarket Chedraui.

ย ยทย The room was very clean. The hotel is located in an amazing garden with various option to have fun with the kids like a mini-golf and table tennis. There was a shuttle to the beach club every half hour, but it is also possible to walk to the beach. We liked the restaurant at the beach club where the lunch was.

Best Hostals in Huatulco

Hostal Azul & Blanco

This is a fairly new hostal to Huatulco and is located right in downtown La Crucecita. Hostal Azul y Blanco is well reviewed and in a prime location for enjoying the nightlife of La Crucecita, and accessing all the amenities!

La Vivienda Villa

La Vivienda Villa is a unique concept that rides the gray area between hotel and hostel. Owned and operated by my friend Shannon and her partner, the property offers budget-friendly but high-quality room rentals (most with a private balcony!) for singles, couples, or families. The kitchen and pool are shared, as well as the roof-top patio.

La Vivienda Villa is ideally located in Santa Cruz Huatulco, only a 10-minute walk from the beach and close to the restaurants and activities available in Santa Cruz!

Shannon also writes about life in Huatulco, you can check out her blog here.
