Thanks for your glowing review. I am glad that you had a good time. Best regards.
Amazing home on the beach. A constant ocean breeze goes throughout the house so no a/c was needed. Lots of seaweed but the water was nice and warm. Kitchen is well stocked. Showers are awesome, even the outside shower. Rooftop deck is luxurious! We would definitely return.

Thanks for your thoughts. Wish I could control the seaweed. It comes and goes especially during the winter. Happy that you are happy. Hoping to see you again 😊
Great property, right on the ocean, easy to visit neighboring towns. Great for swimming, walking and seeing the Mayan ruins. We would definitely return.
Home is just as pictured on VRBO. Beach and water is even better-just unbelievable. We walked out into the water 120 yards to the sandbars every day and walked for a half mile-it was wonderful. Beautiful breezes. It reached the mid 80s and we never had to turn on the a/c downstairs. Did use it in the bedroom tho. Loved the showers. Every possible appliance/dish you could need in the kitchen.
