 A Pacific Paradise in Mexico

Posada Arigalan... Posada is a Spanish word most often used for inns and small hotels. Arigalan is a Zapotec word that means "beautiful water." Posada Arigalan means the perfect place to relax your senses — your ears lulled by the sound of Pacific surf, your eyes delighted by breathtaking ocean views and a profusion of flowers, your skin warmed by the sun and cooled by sea breezes.

Posada Arigalan, established in 2001in Mazunte, Oaxaca, is a small hotel set on a bluff above the Pacific. We are within walking distance to both Mazunte beach and San Agustinillo beach. Our grounds are covered with blooming bogambillias and other flowerering plants. We offer 10 comfortable, surprisingly affordable rooms to choose from, some ideal for couples, others easily accommodating four or more guests. For details, please see our page on Rooms and Services.
"What an absolute dream to awake to the sun filtering through the gauze curtains on the French doors, leading on to the patio with it huge vistas of the ocean ... Posada Arigalan is truly a slice of heaven."
— Bill and Barbara, Austin, Texas
