The house is incredible, the pool fantastic and views incomparable to anything. The house is well stocked and comfortable. We did lose power a few times throughout the stay, but never for very long. Diana the host is fantastic and responsive. Highly recommend ❤️ ##### Kristy K. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian S. Jan 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful views This is a lovely property with incredible views. It is spacious and had most of the kitchen essentials as well as pool towels etc. Beds are comfortable and each of our three adult couples had their own room with air conditioners specific to room. Hot water had some glitches but we expect owners will get that rectified. Our children and grandchildren had a perfect vacation. Thanks Dianna!! ##### Brian S.

We didn't miss a day enjoying the pool and being in the backyard. Early each morning we enjoyed the toucans that would visit as well as many other species of birdlife. The was very clean with an open floorplan. Plenry of room for our group of 11. The kitchen was stocked wirh everything we needed to cook as well as a large freezer and refrigerator.
