Monthly Rentals in Hidalgo Yalalag

We enjoyed our stay. Its fairly close to Oaxaca, if you have a car, its very convenient to get there, always was a place to park the car next to the accommodation. The place is clean. The only downside is that there were no mugs to make coffee.

We had a wonderful visit to Calpulálpam de Mendez thanks to Yolanda, Marta, and David! The cabin was very comfortable and cozy, staying cool even when the daytime temperature spiked and staying warm enough overnight for a restful sleep -- plus, they even provided firewood for the fireplace. Marta gave us great local recommendations via chat, and everyone we spoke with in town (in Spanish, never heard a word of English) throughout our stay was incredibly nice. We hired a local driver from Oaxaca City to take us to and from the pueblo. The more affordable alternative seemed to be taking a colectivo van from outside the city to Ixtlán, then hiring a cab from Ixtlán to Capu (but we didn't take that approach because we had some luggage and have limited Spanish skills). However you get to Capu, please make the effort to visit this peaceful mountain town and pay respect to their community :)

The days that I spent with this family were the happiest in all my trip. When I read the excellent reviews I knew I had to try it and it was better than I already thought it would be. Food there tasted so good, I’m missing it already. I feel lucky to be able to own now some of the most beautiful and unique pieces from their family workshop.

Very nice place to rest after a walk through Mitla, I recommend the place since it is very well kept and Sel is very kind, the only thing is that to get there you need directions since it is not in sight but Sel was always available and received us immediately, really, highly recommended!
