How to get to Zipolite from Puerto Escondido

A guide for travellers arriving via Puerto Escondido and continuing to Zipolite and Playa del Amor.

Puerto Escondido is the arrival point, Zipolite the destination

Cocos Hotel is not in Puerto Escondido: it is in Zipolite, on Camino a Cocos, within the Playa del Amor area. Puerto Escondido works as a gateway thanks to its airport, and from there you continue by road to Zipolite, a small and relaxed village on the Oaxaca coast.

If you are looking for accommodation in Zipolite and your flight lands in Puerto Escondido, this page sums up the order of the trip: airport, road transfer, arrival in the village and a place to stay next to Playa del Amor.

1. Arriving in Puerto Escondido

Puerto Escondido is one of the usual gateways to the Oaxaca coast thanks to its airport (PXM). It is a separate destination from Zipolite: from there you continue by road to the south-east of the same coastline.

2. Continuing by road to Zipolite

The journey is made by road. The usual options are a private transfer booked in advance, a taxi or a rental car. If you arrive with luggage or late in the day, a direct transfer is the most comfortable choice.

3. Arriving at Playa del Amor

Once in Zipolite, ask your driver for Camino a Cocos, in the Playa del Amor area at the quiet end of the village. That is where Cocos Hotel is, with parking included for guests.

Before arranging your transfer

Travel conditions change with the provider, the season and road conditions, so it is best to confirm the details directly with your carrier or airline. The hotel does not operate transport services.

If your flight lands at Huatulco airport, we cover that route in a separate guide. From Huatulco to Zipolite.
