We had an amazing trip to the Casa in Oaxaca. My little boy, 3 years old made great friends, he still talks about them now, also the nannies! Lolita and Fanny were amazing, they really understood how to get my little boy to feel comfortable and let him lead the activities with gentle and caring attention. I was so surprised and relieved that he warmed to them, meant I could go out for two grown up dinners!
Tania has put together such a thoughtful retreat with great activities and is so helpful if you want to do something separate.
The Casa is really comfortable, the food is amazing, Rosa the chef made the best pasta sauce for my fussy little one, as well as delicious Mexican food for me.
All in all, we felt so looked after and cared for, the right balance of activities and relaxation. I would have no hesitation returning to Oaxaca, Mexico it is safe, welcoming so kid friendly and we travelled so easily from UK.
Thank you Tania and the Somos family!
My children and I had a fabulous time at the Casa. We met a great other family to spend time with. The food -- especially by the chef, Rosa -- was amazing. Even my extremely pick eater thought that it was delicious! The house is beautiful. It was so much fun to have a pool right in the house. My kids loved the nannies -- my usually tech-obsessed 8 year old had so much fun playing with them! They even put my babies to bed so that I could enjoy a dinner out with grown-ups!! I highly recommend and hope to be back soon!

Tania always organizes a great trip that is balanced between cultural experiences and down time. We met some great people, made lots of art, saw interesting sites, and ate fabulous food. I would go on a trip with Tania again.
I visited the Somos casa with my 10 year-old daughter for a week and we had a wonderful time. Tania really has thought of everything to make it a relaxing vacation for moms. I thoroughly enjoyed my massage and it was wonderful having Rosa cook some of our meals for us. My daughter enjoyed hanging out with Lolita, even though we didn't need her to babysit very much, since we spent a lot of time exploring Oaxaca. Adriana took us on some fun day trips and we ate lots of yummy food. We didn't get to use the pool since it was too cold. My only suggestions for improvement would be to somehow get a bit more water pressure in the shower (it wasn't much more than a drip), a dresser in the room for clothes, and perhaps a luggage rack for the suitcases. We were also the only guests at the casa during the week, so I can't really speak to what it would be like to share the space with lots of other people.
