We loved our stay at The Coast is Clear in Palmilla Beach Resort. The home was so lovely, and everything from the beds. linen, furniture, to the kitchen ware was top quality. The huge master/en suite was on the 2nd floor with the kitchen and living room. 4 bedrooms downstairs, including a 5-bed bunkroom with attached living area with sofa and tv, made it perfect for the kids to enjoy their shows.
The home was perfectly located, just steps from the beach boardwalk, making our access to the beach with our golf carts so close and easy. The home offered very nice views of the ocean from the 2nd floor deck. The crows' nest view was really amazing.
Having our own pool really elevated the experience. This pool was really nice with its built-in loungers and flowing jets of water from the stucco wall, and was shaded by the house in the afternoon.
We had gotten some misinformation from Vacasa about supplies in the house. The kitchen is well-stocked with spices, salt and pepper, foil, etc. There is also a pack n play provided, so we brought a lot of things we didn't need.
Vacasa responds quickly to texts; however, it is automated response, so there were several times we never got an answer to our inquiry, just an automated response, asking if there was anything else they could help us with. They were helpful overall.
We were disappointed that both pools at Palmilla Resort do not allow any food or drink brought in from the outside because they have a bar and one can order food there. I think they provide water. That gets very expensive with 13 people. We did not use the pools and were happy to swim and sun in our own pool.
