Massive Private Beach


If you\'re looking for down-time, if you love the ocean, you will love Casa Ivan! A large bungalow and beautiful pool are great places to spend time. All while listening to the waves on the beach close by.

We Found Paradise


This was one of, if not the best vacations we\'ve had in Mexico. Barb and Ivan arranged an air conditioned taxi to bring us from Huatulco airport to the property. Our taxi driver spoke english and gave us lots of insight into the area during the drive which flew by. Upon arrival our friendly hosts, Barb and Ivan, showed us our wonderful accommodations and around the beautiful tropical paradise. The pictures really don\'t do it justice. We spent many days relaxing between the pool and the beach which is just steps away. The pool was so refreshing and a treat to hang out at. The beach is endless and you basically have it to yourself. The surf was pretty big when we were there and was so much fun to play in. After enjoying the beautiful sunset we retired to our comfortable suite which had all the amenities of home. There\'s even a smart TV if you want to stay connected although we only used it a couple times as it was so nice to listen to the serenity that this secluded location provides. Nothing like laying in the hammock in the family room and listening to the waves roll in. Access to and from town is so simple. A quick walk down a tree covered, shaded lane brings you to a classic Mexican village called La Barra. From here you can easily find either a $6 dollar cab or 40 cent collectivo ride into Puerto Escondido. Once there you have access to fantastic shopping, outstanding restaurants, adventurous excursions, magnificent beaches, world class surfing, etc, etc. Barb and Ivan were so awesome. They were so friendly and have such great energy. They helped us out with several rides to town, lots of local information as well as a few entertaining \"happy hours\". They have created such a beautiful atmosphere. Whether you just hang out or visit the surrounding areas, you really have the best of both worlds staying at Barb and Ivan\'s. When we come back we will be staying here again.

What a wonderful place!


A lovely second floor apartment with giant windows facing front and back. A large bedroom w en suite bath and also a smaller, sunlit bedroom.. Open floor plan kitchen and living room. Look down to the pool or out to the beach,just a 4 minute walk. Lovely grounds with lots of mature plantings. I had a chance to look into their casita and it was lovely, too. Barb and Ivan were great hosts with lots of helpful suggestions. You can drive 10 minutes into town to eat, go shopping, etc and then come back to your lovely retreat.

Amazing spot away from the busy city areas!


Absolutely loved our stay with Ivan and Barb! We had the pleasure of staying for 2 weeks in the cabin on the property. Excellent value for the money! Barb arranged for a driver to pick us up at the airport, so it was relaxing to know we didn\'t have to figure that out ourselves upon arrival. Ivan had been dealt a health emergency the day we arrived, but Barb held it together and made sure we were as comfortable and welcomed as possible! The space was comfortable and well equipped, exactly what we were hoping for! The pool was a blessing in the heat, and we truly enjoyed their company. Once Ivan was out of hospital and on the mend, he arranged for us to go fishing with Omar\'s Sport Fishing, and we had an experience we won\'t soon forget! We were able to bring some tuna and mahi mahi back for a huge meal we shared with our hosts and Ivan\'s sister, boyfriend and mother, and it was simple to die for:) Thank you so much, Ivan and Barb, for making our first (but not last) trip to Puerto Escondido absolutely amazing!! xo

Best place we have ever stayed in Mexico!


When we arrived we were immediately amazed at how beautiful the property was. It is was even better then the pictures. The place is very clean and has all the comforts of home. The beach walks you can take were endless. You can walk for hours on the vast, beautiful beaches right from the property and barely see anyone else. We loved that the house was a few miles from the town of Puerto Escondido, providing a quiet place to relax and unwind. Puerto Escondido, is a beautiful town with very nice restaurants, markets and all we needed throughout our stay. The owners made the planning process super easy and responded quickly to all of our questions. They made us feel so welcome! We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation!
