Playa Escondida is the most amazing place we have ever been. We choose this resort for our Honeymoon for the name itself..Hidden Beach. There is not one negative thing we have to say. Annie who helps with reservations and your questions is prompt, considerate and caring. Jorge, Joel and Alejandro made our meals and drinks the best possible experience and... more

What else can we say. It was the perfect place, the perfect vacation, perfect staff. We can't wait to visit again. We were sad to leave our new home away from home and our new friends. We loved everything...even our nightly vistors ( tejons, crabs and geckos) The food and staff were excellent. The accomodations and the beach and the... more

This place was everything I expected. I kept up on the reviews so I knew what we were getting into. If you are in for a jungle experience then this is the place. The people are nice the food is great and the setting is beautiful. The pool was clean and a nice place to eat breakfast and dinner.If you... more

I should give this a terrible rating to try and thwart the crowds that will eventually find this place and make it something it should never become...discovered. However, that would be a disgrace to the staff and the developers that have made it such a magical experience. Accomodations: As you will read from many of these reviews, every room is... more

So, my wife and I went to Playa Escondida to try something new - a vacation without plans, family, schedules, camping, or tasks (unless you count walking into town to go surfing). In short, without effort. This was hard at first, and I struggled to believe I really didn't have to remember anything, or call anyone, or attend any type... more

The place is gorgeous: private beach + lush jungle. Perfecto balance between wild and simple with some unexpected luxuries (great food + wifi). The bungalows are beautiful and spacious with enough privacy between one and the next one. Service is fabulous, everyone is friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Given that the hotel is hidden in the jungle and to... more

What a wonderful surprise discovery to find this down below the highway on the beach. The tree houses were fantastic. Each had been individually designed modeled on the first one built by the owners when they were hippies. The accomodations were special, the beach beautiful, and the bar and restaurant actually had the best drinks and food. There was only... more

We stayed at Playa Escondida during spring break 2009 with our almost 9 and almost 13 year old children. (They discourage to bring children, however, it is really a perfect property for all kids over toddler age and there are always playmates - the owner's children!) The property itself is just as described by the other guests, beautiful pool and... more

My husband and I spent 5 days at Playa Escondida for our Honeymoon. What an amazingly rustic, yet elegant tropical paradise. Getting there: We arrived by plane into PV, then crossed the pedestrian bridge and hopped the public bus to Sayulita. Total cost: $3 USD. Once in Sayulita, we grabbed a taxi to the resort (about $7USD). Very easy and... more
