We had a great time and are grateful to John and Donna for hosting us. The casita was very comfortable and quiet. Great wifi and air conditioning for when we needed to relax. Thank you again!
This place was wonderful! John the host was very accommodating to our early arrival and just a very nice person. Super helpful with recommendations. This is a 2 bedroom apartment with a very nice private outdoor area. Really easy to get to and close to all the main areas by the water. Super clean and all the things you would need. We highly recommend this place.
