The location of the house to the beach is a 2 minute walk. The beach was clean and we loved the abundance of seashells to collect. We enjoyed the outdoor space at this house the most, the upstairs patio was spacious and my daughter loved to play up there and my husband and I lounged/read enjoyed the view of the ocean. We used the firepit and hot tub several nights downstairs. Bonus was this was a quiet area and houses were not right on top of each other which was nice. Loved it, highly recommend!! ##### Jayme L.

The kids had their own space that was safe for them to play and entertain themselves and the patio outside was very secure and allowed for the younger kids to play outside as well. Host was very responsive and helped us when needed. We truly wanted to extend our stay an additional day but the property was already booked otherwise we would've stayed an extra day.

Blankets to get cozy on the couch and wonderful games for family fun. The deck is perfect and faces the ocean. Wonderful view with a nice breeze. Walking distance to the beach and not crowded.

Jun 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to stay We really enjoyed our stay at Rayo de Sol. This home has a convenient location right off of the highway and just a short little walk to the beach with no excess traffic. The neighborhood is small and quiet which makes for a peaceful stay. The beach in front of the neighborhood was also quiet and not crowded one bit. When you first arrive, you'll find that there is plenty of room downstairs for games and hanging out. Upstairs, the balcony is large and has plenty of seating. You can hear and see the waves from there, which adds a peaceful touch. Inside, pops of yellow provide a cheerful mood. The home was clean and roomy and was well stocked. We thought the beds were very comfy and loved the soft pillows. We greatly appreciated that a pack and play and a high chair was provided as we traveled with a 1 year old. Very nice touch. Other nice little touches were a few toys for very young children, the hammock, soap in the outdoor shower, choice of grills, a cooler and the so much fun, colorful party lights. We highly recommend this home. Thank you for sharing it with us! ##### Teresa B.
