Wonderful Experience

Sean was amazing; incredibly helpful. He had someone to meet us at airport. Absolutely fantastic view of the lagoon - we had a great time just sitting on the porch watching the boats come. A short (5 minute) walk into town one direction and Playa Mann was 3 minutes the other direction. Sean provided breakfast each morning (bread, butter, jelly, eggs). He also gave us a custom map with preferred restaurants & shops marked We couldn’t have expected a better host and the accommodations were beautiful.
