From beach days to quiet nights together, Casa Racél offers a setting that feels both comfortable and connected — exactly what a Huatulco escape should be.
Hosted personally by Mateo & Francisco of Bravo Huatulco — happy to share local tips, restaurant favorites, and beach recommendations anytime.
– A NOTE ON LOCATION – Casa Racél is in the gated Nirú Las Casitas complex, a new, premium vacation experience. VRBO map pin may not yet be accurate because the property is new. The only public entrance is at the end of Calle Pochutla, just behind Hotel Yuu Lee Casa Bendita Huatulco.
– THE EXPERIENCE – Step into a spacious, light-filled retreat designed for groups and families who want room to actually relax — together.
Start your mornings with coffee as the birds come to life across the Sierra Madre hills that frame Huatulco. Walk just minutes to Santa Cruz Beach — known for its calm, swimmable water — where you can relax with your own beach setup or enjoy drinks at one of the beachfront restaurants.
Spend the afternoon at the community pools or exploring the marina and nearby shops. Then return home, fire up the grill area, and unwind on the terrace as the evening lights of Santa Cruz begin to glow.
– YOUR SPACE – At over 1,300 square feet, Casa Racél gives everyone room to breathe — whether you're traveling as a family, a group of friends, or two couples sharing a trip.
The layout includes:
• King bedroom with private ensuite bath and Smart TV • Queen bedroom with full bath access and Smart TV • Outdoor terrace off the living room with table and seating for 6 • Outdoor terrace off the King bedroom • Sleeper sofa in the living area • Open-concept living and dining area with Smart TV • Fully equipped kitchen with ample prep space and bar seating • High-speed Starlink Wi-Fi throughout
Large windows and an open flow between living spaces make the unit feel bright and welcoming from the moment you arrive.
– THOUGHTFUL TOUCHES – We've made it effortless to enjoy the beach lifestyle:
• Four beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, and large beach bag • Beach towels ready to go • Pickleball rackets and balls for two
No packing, no planning — just grab and walk.
A note worth highlighting: electricity is included in your nightly rate for normal daily use — air conditioning, appliances, lighting, the works. This is genuinely rare in Huatulco, where most rentals bill electricity separately at the end of your stay (often a surprise on a hot week). With us, no metering, no surprises.
– THE COMMUNITY – Nirú Las Casitas is one of Huatulco's most thoughtfully designed new communities — created for space, comfort, and relaxed outdoor living (not crowded rooftop pools).
Enjoy:
• Two large ground-level pools with loungers and umbrellas (a second pool is scheduled for completion in late 2026) • Outdoor grilling areas • Pickleball court • Fully equipped gym with restrooms and showers • Poolside restrooms, changing areas, and an outdoor shower
Everything is designed so you can move easily between the beach, pool, and your condo without interruption — no need to head back to reset your day.
– LOCATION – Located in Santa Cruz, Huatulco — just a 2–3 minute walk to the beach. Map pin is approximate due to new development. We're immediately adjacent to Nirú Ocean Suites.
You're perfectly positioned to enjoy everything:
• 2–3 minute walk to Santa Cruz Beach • 2–4 minutes to marina, restaurants, pharmacy, and shops • Steps from a local favorite breakfast spot, Restaurant Niszul • 4-minute walk to the Organic Market Huatulco (seasonal Saturdays) • 20-minute walk or short taxi ride to La Crucecita
Cruise ships occasionally arrive in the bay — a surprisingly fun sight to watch from the beach.
– BONUS EXPERIENCE – Just next door, the Nirú Beach Club offers day passes for purchase for an all-you-can-enjoy food, drink, and pool experience — perfect for mixing in a day of full-service relaxation.
– ABOUT HUATULCO – Huatulco remains one of Mexico's best-kept secrets — nine bays, 36 beaches, and a pace of life that feels refreshingly unhurried — exactly what a beach escape should feel like.
Guest access You’ll have full private access to the condo and patio, plus access to all Nirú Las Casitas amenities including pools, gym, and pickleball court.
Nirú Las Casitas is in the final stages of completion, with additional features arriving through 2026. Some light daytime construction may be present in certain areas.
We believe in full transparency — and we’re confident you’ll love what’s already here and what this community is becoming.

About the host
Hosted by Mateo
We’re Mateo and Francisco, co-owners of Bravo Huatulco / Nirú Las Casitas. Mateo brings decades of experience in property ownership and management in the United States, along with a deep commitment to hospitality and community. Francisco was born and raised in Michoacán, Mexico, and brings an authentic connection to Mexican culture, warmth, and a true sense of home. Together, we’ve built a small collection of thoughtfully designed rentals in one of Mexico’s most beautiful — and still-undiscovered — coastal gems. Our trusted local team is on the ground in Huatulco to make sure every stay goes smoothly. Our motto: Life is beautiful, no matter what.
Why they chose this property
Santa Cruz Huatulco is the heart of the bay area — walkable, safe, and full of life. You’re steps from the marina, the beach club, open-air restaurants, and the town square, yet tucked into a quiet residential enclave that feels like a true escape. Huatulco is one of the few places in Mexico where the Sierra Madre mountains meet the Pacific in a protected national park, keeping the coastline pristine and the pace unhurried. We chose Santa Cruz because it offers the best of both worlds: convenience and tranquility.
What makes this property unique
Casa Racél is a vibrant two-bedroom condo designed for families and small groups who want personality, space, and a real sense of place. One floor up from the ground level, your private balcony opens to alfresco dining for six and elevated views of the Sierra Madre and Santa Cruz harbor — a front-row seat to slow mornings and easy sunsets. Inside, bold Mexican color, original artwork, and two spa-style baths give the home a character you'll remember long after you leave. Santa Cruz Beach is a 2–3 minute walk, but the balcony has a way of keeping you right where you are.
