There’s no shortage of inspired accommodations perched on spectacular headlands on the Oaxacan coast, but the Carrizalillo stands out even on this dreamy littoral. It helps that it overlooks one of the area’s most gorgeous beaches, has a plush restaurant (Espadin) on a covered terrace, and spacious, stylish, air-conditioned apartments with one to three bedrooms.
Nearly all the grandly decorated apartments have kitchen and private terrace and about half afford panoramic coastal views. A path goes directly down to the beach. Discounts are offered for cash payments.
