Frutas y Verduras

Puerto Escondido


'Fruit & Veg' might sound like a strange name for a hotel, but this is the surfer-hippie enclave of La Punta where being weird is considered relatively normal. Gelling eloquently with the rustic jungly feel of the 'hood, this place sports tiny simple cabañas with mosquito nets, highly colorful screened rooms, and three apartments – some with private bathroom.

Surprise: there's a small pool, a new 'chill-out' lounge upstairs, an inviting restaurant called Café Olé and free bicycles.
