Gorgeous and relaxing!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay! Super clean and easy check in. I LOVED the giant sofa and the hot tub was divine relaxing place at the end of the day. Most of all, owners make it super easy to communicate and the entire stay went smoothly.

Great little casita

Second time to stay here and plan to stay here again. Parts of the neighborhood are a little more transitional than preferred but as long as you don’t like long walks after dark, it’s fine.
