Some Reviews About Us
Diane's Testimonial at AirBnB:

“What an AMAZING place and experience for the whole family. The groundskeeper and maid service was wonderful and so pleasant. The rooms, so tastefully done, were immaculate and so comfortable. There is so much to do, plus the private, beautiful calm beach. Ahhhh .... so pleasant. Everyone had a great time. We loved it!!!!!!”

VrBo Review #30189600

I wish I’d written immediately after our stay so it was fresh in my memory. We were eight adults and seven grandchildren in the house was perfect. There was plenty of room for everyone the food was absolutely fabulous, the pool, the beach, the grounds, and the staff were absolutely perfect. We had the chef service’s for brunch and dinner every day; finally a true holiday for everyone (especially those that usually have to cook). My only regret is that I dip not speak Spanish as I would have loved to have spoken in more detail to those that took such wonderful care of us all. Do not have any hesitations about booking this gorgeous and special home.
