Excellent, 1 month ago

Really fantastic design and comfortable, loved the modern bedrooms and contrast with the thatched palapa on top. Worked out very well for our large group and with two fantastic cooks had a wonderful time.

The stay in this house was spectacular. The house is a work of art and Juana and Martina cooked and took care of us wonderfully. It was really a vacation I would go back to.

Host Response

Happy to have them back!! Have a good trip back!

We had an amazing experience. We had a great time; Luciana was always very friendly, helpful and willing to help at all times. In addition, he responded very quickly, which is appreciated. The house is spectacular, comfortable and with everything you need to enjoy it to the fullest. The only thing to note is the location: it's about 40 minutes from Zicatela, so we were constantly moving by taxi. Still, the place and the service made it totally worth it. We would definitely have stayed much longer! :)

If you are looking for a place to escape from the city and crowds, this is it! I definitely recommend purchasing the meal package since there are no nearby restaurants. The closest restaurant is about 30-45 min walk and a 15 minute drive. Luciana was a great host, she was very communicative and attentive to our needs. The food was also delicious and the staff were super attentive and friendly. The only thing that made me and my family feel a little uncomfortable is the fact that since there are no solid walls, therefore when we showered at night with the lights on, you can see right through them. Because the Airbnb is open, there is no AC so it is a little warm at night but it gets fresher at night. Overall my family and I had a great experience, enjoyed the amenities, and loved being so close to the beach!

Casa Cal is just truly a magical place. The house is stunning and has everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Luciana helped coordinate a driver for us not only from Oaxaca City but also for getting to Puerto and Mazunte so we didn't have to rent a car. Also the house cook, Juana, was incredible. A different fresh juice every morning, a different fresh salsa every day. We ate fish, shrimp, lobster, etc. We loved every minute of our stay and can't wait to go back next year!

The place is exactly as shown in the photos; it is very quiet. If your plan is to disconnect from everything, this is the ideal place! Puerto Escondido is 40 minutes away, and to get groceries, you have to drive, but they can offer you a food package. Juanita's food is very tasty. Remember to bring plenty of insect repellent and be careful at night, as it is common for small animals to appear in the lakeside area where you will be staying. The beach is just a few steps from the house, where you can enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks. Casa Cal is well worth a visit.

Our group had a wonderful stay at Casa Cal. While it was a bit outside of the centre of Puerto Escondido, it was the perfect package for our photoshoot production. The house and grounds were stunning. The close proximity to, what felt like, our very own private beach was convenient and such a luxury. All of the rooms were spacious, clean, and allowed for a very comfortable stay for the 10 days we booked. Security was also important, as we came back late many nights and the night guards were always waiting to close the gate behind us. Luciana was very responsive and super helpful for all the logistics and any questions we had about the property. The very best part was our private cooks, headed by the lovely Juana. The food was excellent- fresh, traditional Mexican cuisine and a never-ending list of options. Even then Juana delivered beyond that! She understood and accommodated our unique tastes, and gave us off-menu items which were to die for! Thanks Luciana- we had the most memorable

Luciana has been the best host I've ever had through this app, I help us a lot in every way, the house is very nice and spacious, my only complaint is that there is nothing privacy since the walls are made of wood, a family member cough and we all heard it, that's just a matter of preference, the beach is much closer than we thought and it is very beautiful, the pool is beautiful and the common area is the best thing about the house, I would not recommend this house for small children as you have to be watching them a lot on the stairs as they are dangerous. The food service is a good option since what I don't like about Airbnb is having to cook on vacation, the food is rich but we really expected something much more spectacular with the reviews we had read, on one occasion we asked the ladies who cook to leave us some dishes that had left us to give the children's dinner and took it, from there everything is perfect, beautiful house and the best host!!

Casa Cal is a peaceful retreat for a large group and was the perfect setting for a 40th birthday. We had a great time relaxing, hanging out in the pool, exploring the beach and gathering for meals. Diana and Juana, the two cooks, were SO KIND and accommodating - highly recommend you book their services. The ocean is a little too rocky to swim, but the pool was just fine for us! Luciana was a super responsive host. A few things I would recommend: - bug spray (forgot one night and got eaten alive) - eye mask/ear plugs (the rooms are very open & can get bright early) - bring cash (the closest atm is in Puerto Escondido. We tipped the staff in cash and paid for coconuts & extra ice) - plan to bring any snacks or beverages you want that isn’t water (we stopped in Puerto Escondido on the way for supplies and then mid-trip messaged a taxi service to bring us some stuff) - the beach dinner was super special, but I recommend starting earlier than you think so you aren’t eating in the dark

This was such an amazing stay for a big group of people - there's many common areas around the pool that we loved and the cleaning and cooking crew are so lovely and accommodating. It was so easy to get anything organized by Luciana or Juana (our fabulous cook). It is also very close to the beach so highly recommend getting a beach dinner. It was hot while we were there so just be prepared there is no AC and all the walls are open so you can hear pretty much everything, but that's common with such year round hot places. Highly recommend this place we had the best time!

Our stay at Casa Cal by the end of the year was perfect. We were 12 people from the family and had a spectacular time, we were able to disconnect from everything and enjoy family time and surrounded by nature. Juani and Diana (the cooks) had an amazing season each dish was richer than the other. Luciana was attentive throughout our trip and helped us coordinate all the activities that made the stay even better. They were all super friendly and we felt right at home. We hope to be able to return sometime.

Our stay was magical, thanks in part to Luciana's generous and proactive help in arranging meals, transportation, and activities. The design of the building is great, perfectly balancing private and shared spaces with fresh air throughout. The site is incredibly peaceful, just a couple minutes by foot from a gorgeous stretch of beach. We opted to have most meals prepared on-site by Juana and her team. They were delightful and the food was delicious. Altogether, a wonderful experience that our group would highly recommend.

Wow, this place was absolutely amazing! If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is the place to be, all you can hear is the sound of ocean waves and wildlife. The breeze comes in off the water into the screened doors of the rooms, and the open air living and dining allow you to take in the gorgeous setting. You can see every star in the sky. Now let’s talk food, hire the cooks!!! This delicious food was made with love and attention, plus, the house is so far removed from the city, it’s super convenient for the ladies to cook onsite. They also assisted in arranging transportation for us. Our host, Luciana, was great! She was responsive and helpful in designing a beautiful experience for my friend, the bride to be! I would definitely come back!

Everything perfect, the house is amazing. It has everything. The super friendly cooks and the food was delicious!! would always stay here

- VERY CAREFUL WITH the LOCATION: The one shown on the page is different than the actual location. The one shown is very close to Punta Zicatela and really is 40 mins away - The house is amazing (same or better than the photos), the pool is warm, there is hot water, great service and food (well worth the distance) - BE CAREFUL with ordering private taxis, those in the area blocked us from the entrance to use their service and it was very tense

Everything was very nice! The house is beautiful, very peaceful! The beach that is close by walking is beautiful... the food is delicious. It would be nice to suddenly offer to have the daily grooming of the kitchen because you often go on vacation and don't take care of being cleaning every time you get something dirty and make a lot of flies.

Host Response

Kitchen cleaning is included in the chef's plan which is very accessible. It's important that those who decide to cook clean and don't leave food all night and day on kitchen surfaces. Cleaning of everything else is free.

Casa Cal is a perfect private Oasis. We rented cars at the airport, it's very easy 45 min drive down the highway and then we had our car for odds and ends. We added in the food option for the duration of our stay and I cannot recommend it enough. The ladies are so kind and talented and made us some of the most delicious meals I've had in Mexico. I am still dreaming about the whole fish. Luciana was always easy to get a hold of and was so helpful with all of our many requests, she hired a driver to Mazunte for us and even helped arranged scheduling COVID tests to the home for our trip back home. I cannot wait to visit Casa Cal again!

Where do I even begin? We were 8 women joining from all over the world at Casa Cal to experience lifetimes of bliss within a week. The house is as if you are in your own remote paradise and the only ones in the world there. From the sunrises at the beach to ourselves; to Juana and the ladies INCREDIBLE cooking!!! There is so much beauty and awe available to anyone who is ready to experience Casa Cal -- a true home away from home. The energy of the space is so inviting; the rooms unique and beautiful; all the animals and plants and nature you feel immersed with. It is all apart of the unforgettable experience casa cal offers. Thank you so much to Luciana and the Casa Cal team; we will be back again and again!

The good: Luciana's house is beautiful. Every room has its own bathroom, shower, storage and safe. The beach was only a short walk away and was very private. The water isn't always optimal for swimming (strong waves) but is perfectly fine for dunking in. Walking along the beach you can actually reach several restaurants on the shore, a 30min walk from the house. Lots of seafood options and great service, I believe we went to a place called La Perla and it was awesome. The not so good: the location is much more remote than expected. the ride to la zicatela (closest/main larger city) is a +40minute drive. To reach the house, transportation turns off the main road into an undeveloped, rough terrain dirt road. Every taxi/van we took had to drive very slow during the stretch of road which lasted about 10 minutes to reach the house. We were unaware of this and it made leaving the house to explore nearby areas a more difficult task, so definitely keep this in mind. Our group also felt check in could have been a bit better, as we were dropped off, and there was seemingly no one on the premises to contact. A quick tour would have been great, as there were several houses in the same compound (although many were under construction). Since the area is pretty secluded, an on site contact would have made us feel a lot more comfortable. Also this place is very beautiful but much more rustic and open in nature. Be prepared with LOTS of sunscreen, insect repellent and aloe vera!! During our stay we encountered large ants, spiders, scorpions, iguanas and snakes! haha I think all in all this stay is great if you plan on solely being here the entire time. If you want to explore the surrounding areas just know it is a bit of a trek to leave the house. We only chose to have food prepared for us on our final day before leaving, food was tasty and had a nice variety.

This is place is magical. The house is gorgeous! It’s exactly what you see in the pictures. The service team are all fantastic and great! Really glad Luciana provided extra services such as food and transportation which were all amazing for the price. Even the massage was worth it. This is not your typical airbnb as they have a team that clean up the rooms and provide all the essentials like a hotel which was a nice surprise. We also felt very safe as they have guardsmen watching over the property. The house is all very natural so expect occasional bugs and no a/c but it’s def worth it in terms of the real experience. The beach is a little rough when we went but still amazing to see in person and dip your toes in. Cant wait to go back. Highly recommend!!!

All excellent!

Luciana’s place is stunning.A quiet location not too from town, but feels a million miles away. Staring up at the blanket of stars was incredible. The ocean is very rough, but the beach is clean and empty. An amazing place to hangout with friends. The additional services such as massages and yoga are highly recommended. And the food - don’t even think about it. A huge advantage. Delicious and the women are lovely and incredibly talented.

The house is spectacular and the service is even better. Juana and Tasting cook delicious and have the best service attitude. Communication with Luciana was always clear and timely. Overall we really enjoyed the stay and highly recommend this house.

This is my second time in two years booking Casa Cal for a group vacation. I can not recommend the house more highly. First, the house is stunning. The environment is beautiful and the ocean is steps away. The house is remote and that’s what makes it even more special. Second, the staff is incredible. Our chefs were warm, welcoming and wonders in the kitchen. The gardeners and daily cleaning staff couldn’t be nicer (when you actually saw them). Third, the design of the house is out of this world. The main living area, pool, kitchen is a great hang spot. And each room is like a little private oasis with private showers and toilets as nice extra touches. The beach has soft white sand and warm water. The waves can be on the rough side for some but for us they were perfect. Luciana will help arrange outings and services. I highly recommend the massages. Everyone in our group booked one, some booked twice. The surf lessons are great too. I can’t wait to come back next year! Thank you, Luciana! Casa Cal was the perfect place to spend my birthday with close friends.

The whole experience was amazing. The house is very nice and impeccable. The perfect place to rest. Luciana is an excellent host and the people who help in the house are very friendly.

We had a wonderful time in this beach house - one minute walk to the beach. Everything was perfect. We loved our cook Angel and his help. The food was tasty and fresh and he was very attentive. The house is wonderful and was super clean. Every bedroom is special, pool & dining area is very cosy. Luciana, the host, was always very helpful and arranged everything carefully for our needs. The location is unbelievable, we were almost alone at the long and awesome beach If there is a possibility, we will definitely come back! Saludos Margit & Bernhard
