⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Casa Étnica – An Unforgettable Stay! We planned this spontaneous trip in just ONE week and couldn’t have picked a better place! Liliana was an AMAZING host! She personally welcomed us with a delicious home-cooked breakfast and even came in the early morning hours to see us off! Who does that?! ❤️ Truly unheard-of hospitality! She gave us the BEST recommendations for tour guides, drivers, restaurants, and things to do. Casa Étnica was absolutely BEAUTIFUL, immaculate, even better than the photos, and in a perfect location! Liliana made us feel like family! We will DEFINITELY be back again and again! 10/10! Don’t think twice, BOOK IT! ❤️

Liliana is an excellent host! We booked her home to host family while celebrating our wedding in Oaxaca. She went above and beyond helping with local recommendations, accommodating requests, and with reliable communication. Our favorite was the special Oaxacan dinner that she cooked in house for our family. It was authentic and comfortable to be in a shared space getting taken care of. We are forever grateful to Liliana for her and Caro’s hospitality! Gracias Liliana ✨ Would book again. Spacious, clean, and greatly located. Beautiful furnishings and decor!

This property is a fantastic option if you're going to Oaxaca with a large group. Liliana and Carolina's service was phenomenal. They were super attentive, friendly and proactive in making our experience more pleasant. The house's location is great for walking to the pedestrian area downtown.

Just book this place! An absolute dream and everything I expected OAXACA!! to be… This Casa is in the most fabulous neighborhood and every detail about the house is perfect. Seven of us stayed for four nights for my birthday and it was just wonderful! Liliana is the best host! She helped us arrange transportation, and also arranged a chef for a dinner. The night we arrived, which was fabulous! It was the perfect way to start the vacation since people arrived at different times. We loved the rooftop deck and took full advantage. Liliana is the most gracious hostess. She even gifted me tequila, and the cutest straw bag ever! The place was spotless with four bedrooms and plenty of amenities. I cannot say enough about this place. It was just the best! The design aesthetic was so fabulous. We literally wanted to take home everything in the house. This is the perfect location for a shopping eating and architecture. Stay here if you want the best of the best!!

We recently enjoyed a wonderful weeklong stay at Liliana’s beautiful place. She welcomed us with a traditional meal—a delicious breakfast—and communicated clearly and promptly throughout our visit. Liliana also helped us with transportation, laundry, and recommendations for activities and restaurants. Our group had plenty of space to spread out comfortably across four bedrooms. Overall, it was a warm, comfortable, and memorable stay that made our visit to Oaxaca even more enjoyable. We would happily stay at Liliana’s place again on a future trip to Oaxaca.

We can not say enough good things about Casa Etnica! Liliana and her sister wee magnificent hosts! I was traveling for work with my family (husband, 2 kids, and 2 grandparents) and needed a home base where it would be comfortable and convenient. The location was perfect right on the edge of the Centro area and quaint neighborhood area of Jatalaco close to Llano Park. Coffee shops, restaurants, museums all very walkable. The house was like a museum of traditional Oaxacan artifacts, immaculately decorated but with such a relaxing feel. There were fine touches everywhere. The amenities were abundant, in the kitchen all the basics plus mezcal to welcome us! In the bathroom as well- robes, slippers, towels, soaps! Liliana was so attentive, checking in on us, helping us do our laundry! Her sister and her made us a traditional welcome meal of tamales with traditional mole which was delicious! Casa Etnica was truly a vacation! Highly highly recommend!

✨ A 5-star experience!I experienced the most soothing warmth in a Mexican-style cottage ✨ The most surprising thing about this trip was staying at this B&B full of soul!As soon as I opened the door, I was immediately struck by the Mexican flair that filled the room— Handmade clay fish-shaped ornaments, colorful embroidery decorations, and woven wall hangings—every detail reflects the host's care. It's like staying in a small museum with countless stories.The warm yellow light falls on the clay vase, and even the air has a relaxed and healing vibe. Taking photos is effortless, and the Fujifilm effect is amazing! And what impressed me the most was the hospitality and thoughtfulness of the host!As soon as we checked in, we received a welcome meal that she had made herself. Before we left, she also made handmade chocolates. She wore brightly colored traditional costumes and smiled as she demonstrated how to make traditional drinks while sharing local food stories with us.The chocolate is rich and silky, with the warmth of being handmade. Even the fatigue of the trip melts away with this sweetness. The tiles in the kitchen, the pottery on the shelves, and even the small ornaments on the dining table all have a strong local character. Staying here is not like staying at a B&B at all. Instead, it's like being a guest at the home of a friendly local friend, where you feel comfortable and at ease. From the meticulously arranged space, including amenities such as sanitary napkins, cotton swabs, curling irons, etc., to the host's unreserved hospitality, this place gave us an experience that far exceeded our expectations.Highly recommended to all friends who want to experience the authentic Mexican style. Staying here, you not only get a beautiful house, but also a travel memory wrapped in warmth!

The house is super nice and is very close to downtown. Liliana was extremely friendly and welcomed us with Oaxacan chocolate and typical mole tamales. An extraordinarily friendly and helpful host. I highly recommend this Airbnb. Besides being extremely clean, it has everything you need, so you don't need anything else.
