This was my second stay at Casa Caballito. The accommodations are clean, comfortable and welcoming. I travel with 2 goldens and they were as welcomed as me. Karla is a great source of info on the area. I will definitely return for another relaxing stay.

What a place. We had a small apartment with everything you ever needed. Even fresh orange juice brought to us every morning. Beach with hardly nobody there. Lots of little restaurants on the beach. A must see. 8 days of ready and doing nothing....what a pleasure

We loved Casa Caballito del Mar. The place is clean and very comfortable. We stayed at the Azteca Suite. We really liked it because, even though is a small room, it has everything, AC, clean bathroom, very well decorated. I would definitely go back there. I think the owner, Karla, is a great person, very kind and pleasent.

We spent 2 weeks at Casa Caballito del Mar in Chacala Mexico and had a super relaxing time. The Mexicana Suite we stayed in was roomy and comfortable. We had coffee every morning out on the deck outside our suite or up on the rooftop. The gardens were beautifully kept with native trees and plants. Our accommodations were a couple... More

This hotel is fantastic. Clean, friendly, great location, afforedable, "off the beaten path," The owner, Karla, also helps us "gringos" in obtaining a shuttle, restaurant info, and other attractions. The location is not a tourist trap! It is laid back and down to earth. Relaxation and seeing and hanging out on the ocean beach everyday is heaven.

Four of us traveled from Seattle for a couple warm weeks in Mexico. Our first stop, Chacala, was the most pleasant surprise. Karla's recently built guest house with gorgeous gardens was welcoming. She is very energetic and helpful. We loved the village of under 300 people. Everyone knows everyone. Karla's Friday night roof top gatherings help bring people together. In... More

Casa Caballito del Mar is located in the quaint village of Chacala. The village is a refreshing pace from the large touristy towns. It is slower paced and the people are genuine. The rooms are tastefully decorated and very clean. My favorite was the gathering place on the patio roof. The feeling is open and airey. The bar on the... More
