The location was outstanding. We didnt have a vehicle so we walked or took the shuttle which was at the corner of our block. The beach was amazing and super close. We had an amazing time. People were so friendly and helpful. We corresponded with hosts since May and answers came quickly ALWAYS. We didnt have a vacuum that worked(one wheel), a worn broom and pesty little fruit fly type critters. The laundry was so great to have and wouldnt have a unit without. Had the time not been taken for 2027...I'd have snatched it up again.
All you can eat Tues at Grouchy Gringo!
