How long the drive takes
Plan on about an hour from Puerto Escondido International Airport (PXM) to us. The road distance is roughly 68 km, and almost all of it is Highway 200, the two-lane coastal road that runs east along the Oaxaca coast and passes through Mazunte itself.
How to get here
The simplest way is our private transfer. A driver meets you at the airport and brings you to Camino Mermejita, inside El Torón Reserve. Book it ahead with our concierge at +52 1 954 147 1069 or mazunte@lavalise.com, and send us your flight number so we can track a delay.
We're a small, hillside place. Once you arrive, expect steps and stone pathways between the casas rather than lifts, so pack in something you can carry up a few flights.
Puerto Escondido or Huatulco?
Both work. Huatulco (HUX) is about 50 minutes from us; Puerto Escondido is about an hour. Pick whichever has the better flight for you. The difference on the ground is small.
If you arrive early or late
Check-in is from 3:00 pm. If your flight lands in the morning, tell us your arrival time in advance. We'll try to have your suite ready, and if we can't, we'll hold your luggage while you have lunch or go down to the beach. Rooms are held until 6:00 am the day after your check-in date, so a late flight won't cost you the booking.
