#### Perfect villa with pickleball and so much more!

Our group of 8 (family of 6 plus grandparents) had an amazing week at Casa Navidad! We chose it over other similarly priced villas because we all love playing pickleball and it was our chance to have a court to ourselves for the week- but beyond that, it was just a beautiful home with everything we could possibly need. There was never a shortage of towels, linens, etc. The kitchen and dining areas plus the indoor and outdoor spaces are so luxurious and well thought-out. The kids loved playing billiards on the beautiful table. We had so much space to feel comfortable and at home. The villa owner, Jeff, sent us lots of organized information ahead of time and was easily reached when needed. The concierge, Diana, was always eager to help with reservations and information. She shopped for us before we arrived, and booked us surfing lessons, and always asked how else she could help. We also enjoyed the Hacienda Pinilla beach club a couple of days. All in all, it was an awesome week and I highly recommend staying there if you can!
