It is a brand new small complex of 4 villas. The two bedroom villa we stayed in was spacious and clean with comfortable beds, a large living room and kitchen and good AC to escape the heat. There is beautiful shared common space of a refreshing pool and large covered deck. A delicious breakfast is provided each morning. A BBQ is available for the complex as well. There is a small grocery store less than a 2 min walk away. The staff went above and beyond and were very warm and welcoming! Would definitely recommend to family and friends and would stay again! ##### Erin K. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danielle P. 9 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### What a great vacation! My family and I arrived and were greeted by Arnoldo. He was very friendly and took us to our room, which was so much nicer than we expected. The pictures don't do the place justice. The pool was refreshing and fun! Breakfast in the morning was a nice touch and super delicious. Its just a short walk to the beach across the street. We rented a golf cart, it was a fun way to get around town. We would definately come back here and recommend to anyone! ##### Danielle P. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ---
