Booked Villa Niku for the kitchen as much as the view. We’re cooks and the kitchen is serious — gas burners, good knives, counter space. Chef showed us a regional technique we’ve been replicating since. We cooked breakfast together and let chef handle dinners. The market run became our morning ritual.
Puerto Escondido for the surf. Niku for the quiet. No AC needed with the ocean breeze. No pool needed with the Pacific right there. The cook made Oaxacan food — mole, tlayudas, mezcal — and we surfed until our arms gave out every day. The stars at night were absurd. My buddy and I have surfed Bali, Portugal, Costa Rica. He said this was the best combination of waves and food he’s found. The roads are rough. The electricity is unreliable. I wouldn’t change a thing.
No AC. No pool. No concierge. No WiFi worth mentioning. Just a house on the Pacific coast in Puerto Escondido with surf out front and the cook’s food at night. We surfed Zicatela when it was working (overhead+, serious waves), swam at Carrizalillo when it wasn’t. The cook made Oaxacan food — tlayudas, mole negro, tamales in banana leaf. Drank mezcal on the terrace. Read books by lamplight. This is Mexico before Instagram and it’s beautiful. The road in is dust and potholes. Good.
