From pampered
luxury to sleeping under the stars, Oaxaca offers a wide range of
accommodation to suit many taste, need, and budget. From rustic
campsites to inclusive resorts, from bed and breakfasts to romantic
inns, from community-based lodges to budget-friendly motels, the
options are plenty.
If phoning outside Mexico, add the country code (52)
and city code (951).
MICROPHILANTHROPY
Working with local food and craft producers, we are developing
the Oaxaca
Market Project to provide internet training to locals and tipsheets
and guides for visitors.
For those who wish to support this work, we are collecting funds
for the workshops and to buy select goods direct from the artisans
that will then be auctioned to raise additional funds for Planeta.com.
Purchases are made at local markets, holiday fairs and from the
homes of artisans. Donations are received via Chipin.
