The property is in an amazing location. There were 11 in our party. 6 adults, 2- 9 year old's, 2- 6 year old's and a 19 month old. The kids had a blast at the beach, especially in the morning during low tide. Body surfing was great. It is also a short beach walk into town, which has a very good selection of restaurants. There are also several beaches in the area, that are worth visiting. The pool is as advertised and is refreshing. There are jets for a hot tub experience but we did not find how to turn on heat, if it was available. There are ample outdoor showers to wash away the sand., and ample beach towels.
The property is worn and dated. The 5 bedrooms and 5 baths and AC in the bedrooms worked well. All bedrooms have king sized beds. The 5th upstairs bedroom is musty and dark and I would rate not that great. In a way the worn and dated was a pro as we had 5 children in our group.
Tomas and his wife Janet do a great job cleaning the property. They were there daily.
The kitchen is well stocked. We did a chef night twice and that worked out well. We would do that again.
A fan blade on one of the porch fans broke off and flew across the patio.. Had one of my grandchildren been around when it happened, it could have been tragic. We left the fans off the the remainder of the stay. It also made us uneasy to use any of the interior fans. No inspection was done. Most of the lights in the fans are out and were not addressed during our stay. So the interior light is adequate but not great.
If you are going to rent a golf cart don't wait. There is limited availability. If you rent a golf cart, there is also new marina near by to visit. There is also Uber service and taxi service in the area.
My daughter and her husband and two children took Spanish lessons. There is a school nearby and runs from 8 until noon. It is very family friendly and they were very positive about the experience.
The hosts directed us to Dervin and he handled all of our tours through his company, Yellowfin. He was outstanding and also managed some of our transportation. He is reliable, dependable, and his tour pricing seems fair compared to the prices posted on web sites.
Jimmy, also directed to us by the hosts took care of our chef meals and follows up with Tomas on repairs, like the screens on the doors, that were ripped when we arrived. Jimmy will also pre shop your groceries.. We found that beneficial and one less thing we did not need to do when we arrived.
