Whether you prefer convenient all-inclusive getaways, luxurious and intimate villas, bargain hotels, or family-friendly places to stay, you'll find somewhere to like in Huatulco.

    You can drift off to sleep right next to the beach at Tangolunda Bay. If being in the heart of the local nightlife is more up your street, staying in Santa Cruz would be perfect.
