Remote remote remote

The house is rustic, the caretaker charming however it was impossible to find and had an extremely difficult driveway entrance. In addition there were so few screens that sleeping was not possible on the first floor. Washer and dryer were inoperable making it a hassle to get clothes laundered. Vacasa did come and launder but it was not possible to dry wet towels and hand washables.

The beach access was the only asset

I loved how close to the beach it was. The price is high for what the place has to offer. Very rustic and chic decor doesn’t mean comfort. There was no dinning table, poor to not wifi, no phone signal, the fan speed could not be regulated. There were holes on the floor, rusty nails sticking out of the floor. No security and no where to secure valued items. On our last day we went to the beach and upon returning our Bose speaker went missing, we have not heard from management about it yet. I would not rent or recommend staying here.

Beautiful place!

This place is truly a gem! We loved every minute of staying there. The sound of the waves in the morning is magical along with all the animals. We saw monkeys, although the howling monkeys do start at 5am! Francisco was great as well. We will definitely be back!

Poor Equipments

There are not any table. The house need some manteinance. There was no en ought bed sheets for all guest and they were not property clean. At the check in the property did not comply with a normal cleaning standard (terrace poorly cleaned). I visited the property with family and 4 children and it was not easy to have breakfast, lunch or dinner since we did not had even enough forks. (Only 4), the Keeper Francisco then gave us from the other house which was empty, the first night.
