I really liked this small hotel. I loved having the availability of the kitchen, we didn’t really use the pots/pans, micro or toaster oven, but we did use the fridge, espresso machine and the small sink.

Overall Rating of Hotel Plaza Huatulco Bungalows in Huatulco, Oaxaca, Mexico

I really liked this small hotel. I loved having the availability of the kitchen, we didn’t really use the pots/pans, micro or toaster oven, but we did use the fridge, espresso machine and the small sink.

I was a bit disappointed in the lack of hot water. I thought the water was cold. My travel companion said it was lukewarm :). The internet was generally ok; it did go out a few times, but this is pretty common in Huatulco from what I heard. Laundry service was available for 30 pesos per kilogram, 15 pesos per pound.

I love the ambiance of the place, the center garden pool, the bungalows that open directly to the pool and the ivy covered walkway leading into the courtyard. The public access to the beach is a bit of a walk, but well worth it. The tranquility of this area of Tangolunda Bay is fab. I would stay again.
