Nestled in the Valley of Xaaga, also known as the Valley of Silence, Casa Silencio is a design-forward distillery hotel that pays homage to Oaxaca's rich tradition of Mezcal.

With only six luxurious suites, this stunning enclave offers an unparalleled moody allure in Mexico. Casa Silencio is an eco-conscious retreat that celebrates the ancient art of mezcal production, with its sustainable palenque (mezcal distillery) situated on the entire 16-acre property in the Valle del Silencio.

The Details

What makes it Kobu

All six breathtaking guest suites are geometrically constructed and appointed with furniture, art, textiles and decor that offer subtle nods to the Silencio spirit. Accents include burnt wood furnishings, distressed leather touches, artisanal candles, hand-woven wool rugs, velvet upholstery, and copper lamps - produced in partnership with local artisans, craftspeople and emerging artists.
Casa Silencio is the architecture behind closed doors, meaning that nothing was left over, nothing left the construction as waste. Each element of the project was reused and applied to another function. The metallic formwork was also reutilized, to avoid wasted wood left over after conventional construction.
