"The house was perfect. The location was perfect. The ocean view was perfect. The only grumble from my kids was the rockiness of the beach… which has nothing to do with the beautiful home. So we drove 7 mins down the street to Santa Teressa and life was all good again. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway for your family, this tucked away gem is perfect. Close enough to everything, but far away enough to hear only the holwer monkeys. "

"The units here are really beautiful, spacious, modern and clean. The property manager is real nice and was able to answer all my questions in a timely manner. The location is really close (walking distance) to a beach access street and about a 7-minute walk to the main restaurants and stores of Carmen and Santa Teresa. I would definitely stay here again."

"J'ai beaucoup aimé l'endroit. C'est en pleine nature, on peut y voir beaucoup d'animaux. Les équipements sont un peu rustiques, mais ça donne un vibe plus authentique. J'ai bien aimé mon séjour à jaser avec Jim (le propriétaire), c'est un homme fascinant, il semble un peu rough, mais est une bonne personne. La route pour s'y rendre à partir de Montezuma est un chemin de terre, mais était en très bon état (janvier). Il y a de bons petits restaurants à 5-10 minutes a pied de l'hotel."
