Ocean Front Villa, Amazing Views, Piscine à débordement, Relaxation

Our family of 6 stayed 5 nights here and we loved it. My youngest said it was the best place we stayed in Mexico! Dale has all the towels you need for the beach and pool, comfortable chairs for sitting on the deck and enjoying the view, and even a washing machine. Mariano at the front gate is a dear and had great advice about coming and going. We highly recommend going on the horseback riding beach tour at Ventanilla which is near Mazunte Beach. In retrospect, I would recommend renting a car as taxis can get expensive and are hard to find if, like us, you tend to be out past 6 or 7 in the evening at one of the neighboring beaches. The beach which you can walk to, Playa Mina is great so you don't really need to go anywhere else if you don't want to, but it's kind of fun to try new places. Also recommend Playa Estacahuite 1.9 km walk from house as very calm waters and good for snorkeling. Overall, we were very happy with Casa Graff and would stay there again if travelling to Oaxaca beaches.

Puerto Angel was nice, great beaches, very scenic. At the property, Manuela and Mariano were very friendly and helpful, but there were definitely maintenance issues. There were a lot of ants in the kitchen. There were old ant traps around, but they probably need to be replaced regularly. There was no door knob on the upstairs bedroom, which made trapping the A/C in that room problematic. The WiFi was out most of the time (but i’m not sure that’s the owner’s fault). The pool was low on water. I would characterize the issues as small but irritating. Overall, it was a nice stay and the property has a beautiful setting.

The house could have been cleaner. AC in bedroom was extremely loud so had to be turned off in order to sleep. The patio umbrella needs replacing and screen door to the main bedroom wouldn’t stay on the runners.

Very comfortable house with a wonderful view. The Infinity pool was refreshing and mostly deserted when we were there. The owner and caretaker Manuela were easily accessible when we needed them. There are lots of nice beaches. We rented a car but the driving is a bit difficult because of the mountains. Taxis are available if you don’t rent a car. The only issue we have is the internet. It did not work all the time. The neighbors also had problems.

We spent eight beautiful weeks at this lovely little piece of paradise. We were looking for a nice, peaceful place to relax and enjoy life and we found it. The owners of the house are very kind and obviously want the people staying in their home to be comfortable and happy. The house is very well equipped right down to a sewing kit that surprisingly I did need and use! We didn't have a single problem with the WIFI which is awesome for Mexico. We loved watching the the beautiful sunrises from our bed every morning. The view from the decks are fabulous. We spent tons of time watching the whales, birds and turtles from them. We always felt very safe and never had to worry about anything we left anywhere on the property or at the pool as the caretaker is always around somewhere keeping a watchful eye on everything but never being intrusive. Actually, he and his family were one of the highlights of our trip. He also kept the pool immaculate, you could tell he really takes pride in his work. We made the easy trip to one of the many nearby beaches pretty much every day and then came home and enjoyed the pool. It is also very nice to be able to walk down to your own "pretty much private beach" in a short 10 minutes or so. We really enjoyed going to the market on Mondays but most anything that you needed was available in Puerta Angel, a short drive or 20 minute walk away. We like to be home in the evenings but if you want more nightlife it is a short, cheap taxi ride to the nearby towns with restaurants etc.. We loved the peace and quiet that we had every evening. We have been going to this area for seven years now and have not experienced one single "bad weather" day on any trips!! We definitely will be going back!!
