Our May 2026 stay at Casita Ristra was wonderful. The property was better than the photos conveyed and perfectly met our specific needs for a 4-night stay. Host Victoria provided excellent, prompt communication and truly cared about our experience. We enjoyed easy spur-of-the-moment walks to the plaza area for lunches/ historic sites/ galleries/ shopping, cooking dinner in the well-appointed kitchen (knives were even sharp!), relaxing in the fenced, private outdoor spaces at different times of day, and listening to the birds in the quiet neighborhood. The safe, flat layout with ground-level access was easy for our senior blind dog to navigate both inside and out.In addition to paved routes, there are two major hiking and biking trail systems each just 10 minutes away that we enjoyed miles on each morning. On site parking (and generally throughout the area) is best suited for smaller cars or SUVs and we were glad we chose not to bring our full size truck on this trip. Although the house is technically walkable to the Railyard, I would recommend expecting to just drive to that area.Plant-based visitors: be sure to check out Fiesta Oaxaca just a few blocks away. They offer multiple dishes with vegan protein and their Mole de Oaxaca was amazing! Thank you again Victoria for your hospitality!
