About this property

Stunning Uninterrupted Sea View

The property has full kitchen with all amenities, lounge and dining area with balcony and sea view, 2 full size bedrooms (main with balcony and sea view), 2 full bathrooms (one is en-suite), entrance hall area, and utility room with washer etc.
The main entrance is at ground level (There are 2 or 3 steps up to the front door). Fibre 5G wifi connection (download speed 77 Mbps). The condo complex has 21 other units, 2 pools (one infinity type with ocean view), beautiful gardens and secure entrance with 24 hour security. Car hire is available locally but is not really necessary, cheap taxis abound and the town center and 2 beaches are a short walk away, Manzanillo beach is the closest at approx 7 minutes walk. The town beach and Zicatela beach can also be accessed by a cliff walkway but it has lots of steps & big waves! I have a local agent (English/Spanish/French speaking) who lives on site to help out with any issues, and she can arrange collection from the airport if needed. Designated covered car parking is available on site if needed at no extra cost.
It should be mentioned that the condo does not have A/C. Generally there is a nice sea breeze and one can sleep with the balcony doors open. All rooms also have fans. We generally only visit in summer (when it's hottest) and have no problem, but if you are an A/C junkie then this may not be the property for you.

Close by in town is a local market to buy fresh fish, veg, fruit, tortillas, spices and all other known Mexican foodstuffs in addition to handcrafts. For the authentic experience you can also buy fresh fish straight off the boats at the beach, or arrange a trip to catch your own. Puerto is renowned for world class fishing (Dorado, Tuna, Swordfish, Sailfish, etc), along with the world class surfing at Zicatela beach.
For safe swimming there are secluded coves for swimming, snorkeling or just relaxing under a palapa with a drink. At night one can eat out along Zicatela or Rinconada, catch the sunsets there, or have your own private sundowners on the balcony before sleeping to the sound of the sea.
Recently (2023) a skydiving facility has also opened in Puerto Escondido.

Please note that the minimum rental period is set here at 6 nights, but between October 1 and March 31 the minimum rental (condo regulations) is 13 nights. Please also note summer rates are always less than winter rates. Please feel free to enquire for rates during summer time as they may be less than quoted here, depending on demand. We are always open to negotiation in quiet periods.
Note that at time of writing (Feb 2024) the construction work next door in the adjacent site that has been mentioned in some older reviews is now completed.

Please also note that the condominium regulations PROHIBIT rentals to families with kids under 14 so you can view that as a bonus or a disadvantage! Great activities for kids over 14 though. Regulations also prohibit rentals to groups of more than 4 persons per unit. While mentioning rules the complex is no smoking except for designated areas on the rooftop palapa area and the lower palapa by the sea.

Loved the condo, location for us was perfect, very central to all.
Have stayed at Eglantina before, perfect location, close to every need. Walking distance to beaches, restaurants, shopping, etc. would definitely return and highly recommend.

Fantastic view!
This condo is located straight on the sea, so there's an unobstructed view of the sea and of Puerto Escondido. It's walking distance to food stores and convenience stores. Two pools are available, so it's a lovely place for a vacation. There was a bit of noise because of a construction project nearby, but I believe it's temporary. Another issue is small hungry mosquitoes. So bring some repellent with you.

About the host

Retired from work for international energy company and currently based in Ireland. Want to spend more time in Puerto but not enough time available! Hence available for rental.

Why they chose this property

Puerto Escondido is relatively unspoilt and has NO major chain hotel or tourist infrastructure. The sea views are wonderful and one can get a taste of the real Mexico, plus have access to the state of Oaxaca with its incredible pre-colonial & colonial sites and stunning landscapes and cuisine. Recently there has been an increase in independent local restaurants offering world class food at great prices and with wonderful views. There is a lot of informal tourism in Puerto, with local hotels, rental properties and activities, and the place is popular with Mexicans who want to eat good food and get away from it all.
Maybe one day the world of commercial tourism will catch up and the condo will be worth a fortune, or maybe it'll just stay as it is, either way we win.

What makes this property unique

Peace and tranquility, great food, local wildlife. Access to other parts of the Pacific coast and Oaxaca State. Excellent surfing, beautiful beaches, sea fishing. unspoilt. Great restaurants at great prices. No major chain hotels.
