About this property

Spectacular View. Oceanfront, 1 BR, 2 story Penthouse.

Sol y Luna is located in beautiful 'Sueno Real', a gated 10 condo unit, at the end of Paseo Punta Santa Cruz, overlooking the principal bay 'Santa Cruz', the cruise ship pier and two of the favorite beaches in the region.

Sol y Luna features a large living area with high ceilings, marble floors, granite counter tops, stylish decoration and among the most beautiful views in Huatulco. One of the few places in Huatulco where you can see the sunrise and sun set from your balcony and terrace. Enjoy your morning coffee (locally grown) while watching Santa Cruz wake up. If you are in luck, a cruise ship will dock in front of you. The evening brings you spectacular sunsets over the mountains. In between, you can explore the many beautiful beaches, or if you prefer, lounge in the beautiful infinity pool.

If you decide to leave the confines of Sueno Real, taxis are plentiful and inexpensive (less than $2.00 into town) or an easy 15 minute walk into either Santa Cruz or las Crucesitas.

First time in Hualtulco

Nothing but good things to say about this beautiful place. The property is amazing, the condo is clean, comfortable, and the views of Santa Cruz are stunning. Dan and his team or so welcoming and always there when we needed them. The condo is in a great location and you can walk anywhere. We will definitely be coming back.

Beautiful peaceful oasis with unparalleled view.

Stylishly decorated penthouse condo with an incredible view of the Santa Cruz Huatulco harbor from decks on two levels. The host, the property manager and the staff were incredibly friendly, kind, responsive and helpful for my first-time trip to this area. The property is private, with on-site parking and security. It's just far enough off the busy streets of La Crucecita to be peaceful while minutes from anywhere you want to visit or if you need something quick from the grocery store. I will definitely be visiting again.

Amazing stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dan's place. He was super helpful prior to our arrival with recommendations in the area. The condo is stunning. The view is exceptional. You are just a short cab ride away from awesome restaurants, beaches and groceries. The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need to make a nice meal at home. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for an unforgettable relaxing vacation!

Ideal for Rest and Relaxation

We found everything at the condo to be just as it was described. We were quite comfortable there. The office attendant Priscilla went above and beyond to help us with everything we asked……even getting dental appointments needed due to an unexpected issue. The location and view are awesome!!

We Love This Place

If you want a romantic getaway, I can't think of a better place. The layout is perfect with your private balcony overlooking the harbor and what's great about this specific unit is that there's a second upstairs balcony for star gazing or watching sunsets. It's truly beautiful.

The condo was even better in person. Beautifully decorated and ever so comfortable. The property manager went out of her way to be helpful, answering our questions, arranging for taxis and restaurant reservations. The terrace looked out on the marina and cruise ship dock so there was always interesting activity including the towns New Years Eve fireworks show to watch without lleaving the condo. Loved our stay and so hope to return soon.

First time in Huatulco

The other reviews are spot on and the listing is accurate, everything was as expected and this is a very nice condo in a very good location. Dan was exception in answering our questions and was quick to ask how things were going or to give advice on where to go or eat. We did a day pass to Secrets just to see what the all-inclusives in that area had to offer and it just confirmed that we are condo and local restaurant kind of people and Sueno Real was a great choice for that.

Terrific

Dan was an excellent host and the property was in a very convenient, safe location. Perhaps the best view in Huatulco. The property crew was gracious and helpful. Loved that the property was gated, didn't have to worry about parking our car on the street. The condo was clean, well provisioned and nicely decorated. When we asked Dan for more comfortable furniture, he happily provided 2 chairs that were comfortable to sit in. The AC in the bedroom was quiet and made for a good night sleep. During the days, there is a wonderful breeze that keeps the condo cooler. The pool was lovely. From time to time it felt crowded because 1/2 of the pool is only 18" deep so everyone would be in the deep section. But we were able to work around busy times if we wanted less social engagement. The other residents were friendly and fun to talk to. We very much enjoyed our stay for work and pleasure.

New Review Category - 7 out of 5

We have read the previous reviews and really cannot add very much except that we would rate the property at about 6 or 7 out of 5! You will not find anything better in Huatulco. First, the location provides an absolutely incredible view of of the ocean, the mountains and the village from both balconies and the infinity pool. Second, the staff could not be more helpful - need a taxi, tell the staff and 90 seconds later it is at the door. Third, the condo itself is better furnished and decorated than the photos indicate, and the kitchen in particular is exceptionally well equipped. Finally, our hosts, Sonia and Dan, are the very best of any condo rental, anywhere we have travelled. We recommend this property without hesitation.

An amazing place.

Have you ever found something so good that you don’t want to share it? Well, this place is it! However, we will share because it’s a truly amazing place. Our host Dan and his wife were so nice. Dan was extremely nice to deal with via email and texts and once at the place, he met us and showed us around. It’s fortunate that he lives at the complex too and always asked us if things were good. The property was very comfortable and the view is spectacular. It’s very conveniently located to Santa Cruz (10 min walk) and the on-site 24 hr staff/ security will order you a cab for rides into La Crucecita. A helpful guide and chats with Dan pointed us in the right direction for restaurants etc. We will be back and for longer next time as one week wasn’t long enough. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your piece of Mexican paradise.

Perfect Vacation!

We want to come back! The condo was even better than we excepted! We met a lot of wonderful people that were also staying at sueño real. The views are amazing! We spent a lot of time in the beautiful pool talking with other guests and watching the boats and people down at Santa Cruz bay. All of the people working at the condo are nice and helpful, and they keep the place very clean. The location is great, with an easy walk down the hill into town or to Playa Santa Cruz. Taxis are easy to find and cheap, so you can get back to the condo if you don’t feel like walking. If you go to the end of the road, there is a trail down to a small beach with a well stocked bar. We rented a scooter for a day and it was so much fun to whizz around town and all the way up to Maguey bay, the light house, a bunch of other beaches, and down to La Bocana. La Crucecita is a lot of fun, and we walked down there almost every day/night to eat at all sorts of restaurants. We also did a tour up to Cascadas Mágicas, waterfalls that are definitely worth seeing! It is about a 1.5 hour drive up. We were with a mom and her grown son from Mexico City, and our driver. We became friends immediately, even though they spoke Spanish and very little English. I used my Spanish pretty much the whole vacation. It helps a lot to know even a little bit of Spanish, but you can get around if you don’t know any. They appreciated that I spoke Spanish well. La Entrega has great snorkeling! Perfect vacation!

You will love it!

Having travelled thru Mexico for many years this was our first visit to Huatulco and we loved it. Everything we hoped for, perfect weather, wonderful people and Dan's great condo. We were lucky enough to meet Dan when we arrived and he couldn't have been more helpful. Dan's condo looks exactly as the pictures show it to be, it is well appointed and has everything you need plus the added bonus of a bag of freshly ground local coffee. It is a lovely quiet location, no kids, a nice breeze and the staff are so kind and helpful. The only thing I would mention as a negative is the furniture. The "sofa" is the traditional concrete built in structure with cushions. It is extremely uncomfortable and there is nothing to prop your feet up on like a coffee table or foot stool. The chairs were not much better. Now if you're not planning on spending time in the condo it probably would not matter. But in the evening we enjoy hanging out reading a book and lounging around. If the furniture was more comfortable we would rent Dan's unit again, but if it were the same we would not. All in all our trip was fabulous & we would head back to the Huatulco area again.

Giving Huatulco a Test Drive

We only booked a week at Sol y Luna because we had never been to Huatulco, and wanted to ‘try it out’. The suite was spacious, very comfortable, and had a great, panoramic view. Priscilla, the on-site manager, always greeted us with a smile. Security and support staff were the same, and made calling a cab a breeze. I LOVED the pool. The beach at nearby Santa Cruz with mild surf allowed me to go into the ocean for the first time in long, long time. (Note: lots of beaches with surf if that is your preference.) We had mixed experiences with dining out, but if we were there longer we would have figured out which places suited our palate best. We have been so very lucky over the years as our VRBO hosts or property managers have consistently been very good. That said, Dan Thompson is hand’s down the BEST. He was patient and quickly responded to my rookie guest queries. Oh, and when we went for dinner at a place Dan recommended, and we told them that we were ‘Dan’s friends’ - my goodness, you would think we hobnobbed with royalty. Service and food was great that night, that’s for sure. ☺️ The driver that Dan recommended was excellent; knowledgeable and friendly with good English, and gave us a great tour of the area. I regret to say that there IS a negative, and it is a big one that I don’t know how we can get past. Sol y Luna is already booked in the time slot for when we wanted to come back!
