An Authentic Guest Ranch Experience at Rancho Pitaya

Rainbow over Guest Lodge

Rancho Pitaya sits nestled as the base of the western foothills of the valley of Tlacolula, the eastern arm of the great valley of Oaxaca. While the ranch is only 20 minutes from Oaxaca, a UNESCO world heritage city with all the cultural experiences it has to offer there are countless fascinating destinations within 20 miles of the ranch.

Get away from the for a little as an Overnight Ranch Ride or immerse yourself for a week in the real Mexico with our true insider’s Adventure and Discovery Guest Ranch Stay

The Cactus Suite

Traditional Mexican architecture in wooden beams, wild cane and hand-painted tiles define the design of the three spacious guest rooms of the adobe lodge. Guests will relax to expansive vistas on their 300 sq. ft terrace that nearly duplicates each private living space. Well-stocked kitchenettes in each room make relaxing in the warm sun after the day’s adventures even better.

But if you prefer a freshly made Margarita just meander up the stone walkway to the ranches’ spacious open-style kitchen & dining room where local cooks prepare fresh Oaxaca specialties. Rancho Pitaya is about outdoor living and its old-fashioned verandas offer 360º views down valley and up into the mountains.
