We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Paloma's property. The bed was comfortable, the home was tastefully decorated. The neighbors were friendly. The host responded quickly to our messages and even left a sweet welcome basket.The airplane traffic wasn't too distracting and it was even exciting seeing them fly overhead!I will stay there again! Thank you Paloma!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We had a great stay! The landing flight path was not too disruptive and we enjoyed seeing the planes coming down. The space is minimal and could benefit from minor additions such as a dish drying rack, but overall very comfortable and affordable for 3 adults. Paloma thought of almost everything we could need, from ear plugs to body wash. We will likely be back in the future!
