The host was fantastic, we saw monkeys, countless birds, walking distance to beach. It was a great value for the money. We explored the area and this location worked out great.

Liked: Cleanliness
We had a great time visiting the area. The home was comfortable with room for up to 10 guests. We enjoyed the pool and rancho as well as the beach where there was plenty of shade. At night, the pool table provided for some challenging fun. We look forward to our next visit.
