Set in the vibrant Brisas de Zicatela neighborhood of Puerto Escondido, Casa TO offers a quiet, architecturally striking escape just steps from world-class surf beaches. This boutique hotel embraces eco-conscious design with solar-powered hot water while maintaining a stylish ambiance throughout.

“Stayed from May 1st to May 3rd. Casa TO is a very instagramable place, far from that, the pool is almost useless since it is very cold, luckily I got the room that comes with a … tiny pool/ jacuzzi which made the stay more worth it. The shower does not have warm water during the nights/mornings since the boiler works with solar panels. The breakfast that is included has limited good options compared to other hotels I stayed in. There is no parking spots, you leave it in the street. Services is good, shoutout to the guy outside that always greeted us and was very friendly every time we came back to the hotel, helping carry our bags too. The road to get there is rough, uneven and with potholes, although the last day I saw they were starting to place rocks on the entrance to help with that… I stayed at Casa Yuma first and will like to stay there again in the future, Casa TO I think one night is enough to get the experience/photos…”
“Highly recommend! Such a beautiful place with the most lovely people. We stayed for 5 days and it definitely felt like a home away from home. We had complimentary daily breakfast that was freshly cooked to order. We had the best omelette with arepas and pecan French toast, espresso and matcha everyday . Perfect. Delicious breakfast ! We had dinner at their restaurant Glou Glou twice and it was amazing ! They deserve a Michelin star ! Beautiful and delicious with the servers letting you know the ingredients and where it’s from. They gave us a beach kit everytime we went to the beach , free fruits all day. The pool was a treat to get back to and hang out around. They had a little bar with yummy drinks, I love mezcal now. The Friendliest staff, just love the vibe of the whole place . We will definitely be coming back ! Thank you Casa To !”
“First and foremost, the ambience at Casa TO is absolutely breathtaking—relaxing, tranquil, and beautifully designed. The drinks and cocktail program are exceptional. I’m a big fan of the Apple Spritz and the Mezcal Negroni—both were outstanding. The rooms are eco-friendly and thoughtfully built as part of the architect’s original vision to create a space that’s truly in harmony with the environment. Because the hot water is powered by solar panels, you may occasionally get less-than-hot water—but honestly, it adds to the experience and feels oddly refreshing. The rooftop restaurant is easily one of the most incredible dining experiences we’ve ever had. The gastronomy is truly out of this world. Another huge advantage of staying in La Punta is the location. You’re surrounded by everything—beautiful beaches, great nightlife, and endless restaurants and cocktail bars—all within walking distance. We’re leaving feeling deeply relaxed, at peace, and incredibly thankful for the experience. Casa TO is truly special, and we can’t wait to return.”
“Absolutely stunning hotel. The pool is clean and fresh. It looks just like the pictures. A very serene place to stay and feel grounded. The bar serves up excellent cocktails. The staff are all very attentive and friendly.”
“Marvelous experience. The hotel is quiet, except for the perfectly curated music. The pool is nice and refreshing after a long day at the beach. Drinks at The Cave bar are classic, with a tinge of eccentricity that makes them unique. The architecture is exceptional, yet organic enough to let the mind wander, making the place whatever the imagination wants it to be. The perfect tropical paradise.”
“TLDR: The most architecturally unique hotel I've ever stayed in by a long shot. During our stay, had nothing but excellent service from friendly and welcoming staff. Do yourself a favor and book the tasting menu at Glou Glou one night as well. From the included daily breakfast to the kind front desk, couldn't recommend Casa TO more highly. Before we arrived, they organized a delivery of flowers to the room for my spouses birthday, arranged a scooter rental and sorted out transportation to and from the airport (with an extremely friendly driver named Elio!). While there, they gave great recommendations for exploring the local area and even supplied us with new beach bags / towels at a moments notice. We surfed every morning nearby and would rush back for the breakfast- and for good reason (Must try the french toast and the flautas). My spouse is a chef in a 1-star Michelin and they couldn't get enough of the food. Especially the tasting menu. Only a few minutes walk to the buzzing strip of La Punta, Casa TO is the perfect refuge after a long day in the sun. With only 9 rooms, the atmosphere is perpetually tranquil. Ona busy night, you can sometimes hear the bustle of the restaurant in your room, but it is not overwhelming in any sense. Thank you Angie and all the front desk staff as well as Miguel at the bar and Elio for the ride. Nos vemos pronto :)”
“Casa TO and their staff are absolutely incredible. Mario, the GM, and Alejandra, at the front desk, are attentive to every request and provide an environment to relax, thrive, work, and play. HIGHLY recommend Casa TO as well as the restaurant Glou Glou on the rooftop terrace. Mind blowing design and architecture as well. If I could give 10 stars I would!”
