*Wonderful property! Please bring drinking water if you prefer it and food with you, especially fruits and vegetables. There are no shops less than ~40min for more than VERY basic essentials.*
We had a wonderful time. The owner was very responsive and also put us in contact with the property manager, Alex, who provided us with exceptional customer service.
The bedrooms were all good size, the beds comfortable and clean, the air conditioning worked well, wardrobes for personal items. There were enough towels to have separate bath and pool towels for each person.
Bathrooms were clean, and it was great to have two half bathrooms downstairs by the pool.
Other than sleeping, we spent all our time in the outdoor living space by the pool. The kitchen is very well stocked, the appliances work great, there is a huge deep freezer stocked with ice. The couches and tables were all clean and comfortable. The shaded space during the day and when it rained was amazing. There are lots of ceiling fans to help create a nice breeze when there isn't one. The pool is large, clean and the perfect temperature. The kids loved it and spent most of their time swimming. The outdoor shower coming in from the beach has 3 heads. We had 11 people and there was more than enough room to lounge around comfortably.
The beach itself is black sand. There are some beautiful cliffs and caves you can walk to down the beach. The water/undertow was too rough for swimming, but beautiful to look across and watch the sunset.
The house manager, Alex, was wonderful. When our car broke down on the way, he was quick to find transportation for us. He and his wife are excellent cooks, and are available per request to cook at the house or you can walk a few properties down on the beach to their outdoor restaurant. BEST ceviche we've ever had. They also delivered to the house a meal we ordered from their restaurant. Excellent food!
Activities: Alex was also helpful in setting up horseback riding on the beach, an amazing experience. The horses were brought right to the beach gate of the house, and the ride was beautiful. He also arranged a deep sea fishing charter, which was a little over an hour away by taxi.
If you're looking for a quiet, out of the way place with comfortable accommodations, an attentive host and a beautiful pool - all beach front, this place is great!!
Again - TAKE FOOD. Not many places to eat out and no local supermarkets.
Thank you!!
