With stunning views of the Caribbean A recently completed house on a verdant, tree-lined hill with stunning panoramic vistas of the Caribbean and Sierra Nevada mountains. Located in the back corner of the beautiful indigenous fishing village of Taganga--just a fifteen-minute walk to the beach but far enough away to relax in the pool or swing in a hammock and listen to the parrots squabble and watch the iguanas jump from giant cactus to mesquite tree. Pop open a cold beer and go up to the 360-degree sky terrace to watch the sun set and the moon rise. Only a forty minutes from Santa Marta International Airport and 1 hour from the main entrance to Tayrona. Buy a fresh-caught fish from the fishermen on the beach and pair it with passion fruit--maybe even picked from the vine on property! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Water dispenser ### Dining - Breakfast available for a fee - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5.5 bathrooms - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: In the open areas.
