"My stay at Oceanside Villa "Campeche" was great. Our directions were easy to follow and the entry to the Villa was easy. The house was well stocked with water and coffee and plenty of towels. The view from the oceanside patio was excellent of the morning sunrise and the Caribbean. The location was good for walking to Playa Norte and many great restaurants a couple of blocks away. I would stay again, "

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (77 reviews)
"Loved our stay! Perfect location — amazing beach just steps away and Hidalgo only a quick walk. Staff was so welcoming. Condo is listed for 6, but 4 people would be more comfortable since there’s only one small bathroom. Bed in master was a bit firm for our taste, but that’s just preference. Would definitely stay again!"
