From the amazing location to the lovely and well-appointed houses, this was one of our best VRBO stays ever. The house and casita were clean and very comfortable. The main house is situated such that we had our coffee on the east porch in the morning sun, and wine in the west portal at sunset. There are little pathways around the property, through the natural desert, for meandering and meditation. The host responded quickly to any questions we had about the house or area. We are grateful for this stay, and we will be back!
