We very much enjoyed our family vacation at Las Brisas. It is located on a private beach and the neighborhood is gated. We had our coffee every morning sitting on the patio looking over the beautiful white sand beach. You walk down just a few houses to access the beach itself, which was very close. On days that the beach had double red flags (no swimming), our teens were able to swim in the pool which we essentially had all to ourselves! The neighborhood was not very busy (even with a mid-June trip) so we often found that we shared the pool with just 1 family. Some of our group would sit at the ocean while the teens played in the pool, and I was never worried about their safety since the small community is gated. The house itself is beautiful, clean, beds comfortable, entertainment systems great (wifi, lots of cable channels, HBO, etc as well as a Sonos speaker system throughout the house) and the A/C worked amazingly well! (3 different A/C units - one on each level). The property manager was very responsive and addressed our 1 issue immediately (to change the lightbulb in the outdoor shower). The only item I would suggest is that if you plan to cook for a group, bring some casserole dishes, a pancake griddle, etc. They have a nice kitchen, but lacked a few items which we picked up at Walmart which is just 10 min away. A great place to stay.
