Hotel Cordelias

Puerto Ángel


Not many elect to stay in Puerto Ángel, but, if you do, head to this bright, white hotel run by the owners of boat-tour specialists Azul Profundo. Rooms are large (most with two double beds) and 10 overlook Puerto's merry beach and harbor. There's a fresh-fish restaurant downstairs and boat trips push off from the adjacent jetty. Just the package!
