Green luxury on Mexico's Pacific coast

Hotel Terrestre

       

Puerto Escondido - translated from Spanish, this means something like "hidden harbor". With views of the sea, jungle and mountains, the Hotel Terrestre opened here in February - and it has nothing to hide, neither on the outside nor on the inside! Designed by star architect Alberto Kalach, the hideaway not only impresses with its 14 villas, all of which have their own pool, private garden, 2 terraces and indoor and outdoor bathrooms, but also with its sustainable concept. Electricity is generated 100% from solar energy, only local materials were used for the construction and the cuisine is also consistently based on regional ingredients. Just a few minutes' walk from the hotel, the hotel's own beach club entices guests with fiery cayenne pepper lemonade and healthy detox dishes. Or you can pamper yourself in the large spa area with its spectacular hammam. Excursions in the surrounding area take you to the famous Casa Wabi artists' colony, hot springs, cool surfing hotspots or into the heart of unspoiled nature.
