It was absolutely perfect for a family of four with two teenagers. The pictures do not lie - this place is beautiful, clean, and surrounded by the most breathtaking views. It was very easy to communicate with the host over WhatsApp, although we did not require much communication, as every went smoothly. The Playa Flamingo area is very nice and very close, but you will definitely need a vehicle to stay here. We liked that we could head out for the day and go on adventures, but that we always had our private oasis to return to.I would recommend this rental to friends and family, and to you! ##### Dayna N.

Ben, our host, was great; good communication and plenty of great recommendations for eats and shopping. By far our favorite was an early morning walk on Playa Flamingo beach (<10 min drive.) We also did a sunset cruise, great recommendation. Thanks Ben! ##### Pamela B.
