Reviews
Chris
Incredible vacation! First of all, the home is immaculate. We saw sea turtles, howler monkeys, iguanas, & kiskadee’s everyday of our trip…right in our backyard!!! Everything is kept in pristine condition. Ismael, the grounds manager, knows every square inch of the property and is on-site each morning to check on the property and assure the guests have everything they need. Miriam was an essential part of making our trip perfect! Any time we had a question, she provided us with an answer in seconds. She organized our catering, helped us with renting a golf cart, helped us with horseback riding sessions, and booked our transportation needs. Having people like Miriam & Ismael (& Ismael’s wife with housekeeping) made this trip truly feel like a vacation for us. We were able to relax on this trip unlike any place we’ve been before. We will return again for sure. Pura Vida!
