Puerto Escondido has evolved from a laid-back surf town into one of Mexico’s leading destinations for design, gastronomy, and wellness travel. Much of this transformation bears the signature of Grupo Habita, whose three distinctive properties share a common philosophy: creating experiences where architecture blends seamlessly with the landscape and luxury is defined by simplicity.

Why we loved them?

Architecture that blends into the landscape. More than just hotels, Hotel Escondido, Hotel Terrestre, and Hotel Humano are thoughtfully designed to coexist with their natural surroundings. From Hotel Escondido’s beachfront villas to Hotel Terrestre’s sustainable brutalist architecture and Hotel Humano’s contemporary aesthetic, each property proves that great design can enhance—rather than compete with—the beauty of the destination.

An experience that embraces the rhythm of Puerto Escondido. There is no rush here. Natural materials, private pools, lush gardens, and the constant presence of the Pacific create an atmosphere that encourages guests to slow down, unwind, and fully immerse themselves in the destination.

A culinary experience rooted in Oaxaca. The three hotels celebrate the region’s rich culinary heritage through locally sourced ingredients, traditional techniques, and a contemporary approach to dining. Experiences such as Kakurega, the hidden omakase at Hotel Terrestre, and Sushi Hama at Hotel Humano elevate every meal into a memorable part of the journey.

Wellness as a way of life. Beyond traditional spa experiences, Grupo Habita has created spaces that encourage guests to reconnect with both body and mind. The hammam at Hotel Terrestre, the wellness treatments at Hotel Escondido, and the tranquil relaxation spaces at Hotel Humano reflect a philosophy where well-being comes from silence, nature, and slowing down.

Warm, genuine hospitality. One of the collection’s greatest strengths is its service. Warm, discreet, and highly personalized, the hospitality makes every guest feel connected to the destination rather than simply staying at a hotel.
