In the heart of Puerto Escondido, Raíz Hotel Boutique stands as a refuge where architecture flows in harmony with nature. Each space has been designed to offer a wellness experience that deeply connects with the environment, culture, and the Oaxacan soul.
Nature-inspired architecture at Raíz Hotel
From the very first moment, Raíz Hotel Boutique's aesthetic and natural design envelop you. The use of local materials, the integration of native vegetation, and the fluidity between the built and the organic define a natural Oaxacan architectural design that exudes authenticity.
Our spaces are not only designed to be admired, but to be lived in with awareness. Every corner invites rest, contemplation, and reconnecting with the present: that's part of the well-being at Raíz Hotel Boutique .
For the bungalows, for example, we chose plants full of chlorophyll, ideal for breathing green: Nopal, Agave, Nolina, Palma, Tamaya and Dalia , deeply Oaxacan species, which accompany the rest in the middle of the jungle environment.

Sleeping among roots: rooms and their symbolism
The rooms named after Oaxacan plants are not only an aesthetic choice, but a symbolic one. The names of our spaces evoke the connection with the earth, with what grows and gives us life. The bungalows are surrounded by living nature. The rooms, built on Mr. Felipe's old house—the root of Raíz—are named after trees with powerful roots: Ceiba, Ahuehuete, Tepozán, and Mahogany . Meanwhile, the ground-floor apartments, like base structures, are named after ground-dwelling flowers: Azalea and Monstera .
Every name tells a story, and every corner of Raíz Hotel tells a story .
Oaxacan culture in every detail
At Raíz Hotel Boutique , Oaxacan culture isn't just inspiration; it's a presence. It's in our breakfasts, as we explored on the blog Flavors of Oaxaca: A Traditional Breakfast at Raíz Hotel , where the region's ingredients and flavors are celebrated.
It's also in our drinks, as we share in La Cultura Mezcalera en la Playa , where mezcal becomes a bridge between tradition and modernity.
But it's also in the subtlest details: the Oaxacan handicrafts that decorate each room. Unique works, acquired in nearby communities like Barro Santa María Atzompa , Santo Tomás Jalieza , Teotitlán del Valle , and the traditional backstrap looms , where artisan hands bring each piece to life, transforming Oaxaca's identity into objects that tell stories. These places, steeped in tradition, are perfect to visit , where you can learn about the artisanal process firsthand and take a piece of Oaxacan culture home with you.

An eco-friendly and transformative experience
We're committed to an eco-friendly experience at Raíz Hotel , where every choice—from materials to landscaping—is thoughtfully designed to be respectful of the environment. Because we believe that true luxury is living in harmony with nature.
