Chill surf condo
We took a chance on a non-all-inclusive in San Jose where we have stayed four previous times. So we obviously love the area and were excited to have more freedom to explore. What a lovely experience. For just two of us (no kids with us this time!) buying and cooking our own food was a much more authentic experience and we enjoyed going out to dinner each night. With so many great dining locations, we had more than enough places to try out, and getting around via Uber couldn't have been easier. The condo itself was great, pretty modern, and very well stocked with all the supplies. The deck and view was STUNNING. The grounds and pool were well kept and we never had to fight for a seat at the pool or beach (mind you, we were visiting in April, a less busy time of year). My husband rented a surf board and surfed every day while I enjoyed a covered "cabana" area on the beach (something you would pay extra for at an all-inclusive). We will 100% go back. You can't beat it for the price. I took one star off for the road noise. It's no fault of the owners, and I know it has been mentioned here (the noise machine they provided was helpful) but it is definitely a thing. The trucks gear down as they come down the hill and it really is loud. But for us, on vacation with no kids and all the time in the world, we could sleep whenever we wanted lol, so no matter.
