Vacation Rentals in Los Tamarindos

Los Tamarindos is a quiet inland colonia tucked between the coastal highway and the Rinconada/Bacocho side of Puerto Escondido, named for the tamarind trees that still shade some of its older streets. It's a mixed neighborhood of long-settled local families and newer residential development, well away from the beach-strip crowds.

What draws long-term visitors here is space and calm: bigger lots, lower noise, and prices that stretch further than a beach-adjacent rental — at the cost of a short drive to reach the sand. It's a practical base for anyone settling in for weeks or months rather than a weekend.

Choose Los Tamarindos if you want a genuinely residential Puerto Escondido base within easy reach of Rinconada's restaurants and Bacocho's beach clubs, without paying beachfront prices.

Character & location

Los Tamarindos sits inland, between the highway and the Rinconada/Bacocho corridor — close enough to reach the beach clubs and restaurants of that side of town in a short drive, but set back in a quieter, more residential setting. Homes range from established family properties to newer builds aimed at long-term renters and buyers.

• Expect a local, everyday neighborhood rather than a tourist one — small shops, quiet streets, and neighbors who live there year-round.
• Its position between the highway and the Rinconada/Bacocho area makes it a reasonable middle ground for reaching either the beach clubs or downtown.

Getting around

A car, scooter or taxi is the practical way to get to the beach, Rinconada's restaurant strip or El Centro's market — none of it is walking distance from Los Tamarindos. Build that short transfer into your daily rhythm rather than expecting to stroll to the sand.

Who should stay in Los Tamarindos?

Long-term renters and families who want space and quiet without a long drive to Bacocho's beach clubs or Rinconada's restaurants find good value here. It suits an extended, settled stay far more than a short beach vacation — for that, the beachfront neighborhoods are a better fit.
