Mar 24, 2019 #### Lovely place, spectacular views, very close Casita Miro and Onetangi Beach Had a great stay, lovely location. Greeted with local wine and hand made soaps. Very comfortable, aircon was appreciated although opening windows and putting mosquito deterrents on also worked well. Everything was of a high standard. Only issue we had was upstairs shower was blocked but just used the downstairs instead. Lovely big bath our 2 year old enjoyed and had a fantastic bbq dinner overlooking the wonderful vista. Price seemed on the more expensive side but was worth it for the view and location. Property manager very easy to deal with. Would recommend. ##### Marcel A.
