Absolutely loved it!

Hidden behind blooming bougainvillea trees, Casa Cereza was truly a place we felt welcomed the moment we arrived. Cherry is such an accommodating host; thoughtful and generous. So many big and little (but still important) things are planned and provided for the guests to make your stay comfy and enjoyable! And in a case you need something else (i.e. a bigger pot to make soup or an advice where to buy the best shrimps in town), just ask. I also must note here that Cherry definitely placed her heart, taste and talent to make Casa Cereza a very unique and charming place. Once there, look around for all the décor and details; me and my husband were competing in discovering something special every day. Now to something we didn’t expect at all: on the second day into vacation we were offered a free upgrade to a bigger room! (Totally free for us, and, on a top of this, Cherry had to jump some hoops to make it work with VRBO.) We are so grateful! Planning to be back one day :)

Boca

Absolutely gorgeous authentic Jungle property. It is situated on a river, with a short walk on the cobble and dirt road/path to the ocean beach and restaurants. The outside patios are phenomenal! Cherry and Nick are absolutely fantastic hosts! I will definitely stay again when I am in Boca!

Wonderful suite and host

We so enjoyed our stay! The hosts were very friendly and helpful with suggesting places to eat and how to get around. The suite was comfortable and cute. It is right at the start of a hike to the local beaches, which was beautiful and challenging! Would definitely stay here again if we came back to Boca de Tomatlan.
