Great little Casita and gardens!

My wife and I stayed here for one month and really enjoyed the Casita. Great location in a quiet area. Casita has everything you need and has a real Mexican flair. Roxane is a great host, accommodating and kind. Perfect for a couple! We will be back! Tom & Carmen

Loved our one month stay at Roxanne's casita. The casita was equipped with everything you could need. Bed was super comfortable. Lots of good dining and groceries close by. Nice little table on the patio to enjoy our coffee and cribbage in the nice green courtyard space with the flowers and hummingbirds. Then there was the relaxing sitting area up on the rooftop palapa for enjoying the mild evening airs. It is only a short block to the beach for watching spectacular sunsets. Also it was great to have the use of Roxanne's bicycles to ride into Melaque centro for calmer swimming beaches and many beach restaurants. Walking down the beach to either Barra de or Melaque centro was always enjoyable and probably took less than 20 minutes each way. Taxi back from Barra was an inexpensive option in the evening. Roxanne is super friendly and helpful, Quickly addressed any minor issues we had. All in all a great holiday and wonderful place to stay. Thanks Roxanne!

WONDERFUL STAY AT ROXANNES CASITA!

We loved pretty much everything about our stay at Roxannes. The place was very artsy, well kept and well equipped with so many appliances etc and she even brought us a blender and let us use her beach chairs & umbrella as well as her 2 Bicycles. Lovely interaction and overall we would stay again. my Only issue was the amount of dust on the street in the town which was sometimes hard on my allergies. One other thing was she went out of her way to give us restaurant and entertainment suggestions and we really appreciated that. Also the gorgeoud view from the rooftop deck and so many beautiful flowers and plants in the gardens. Minor complaint is I would suggest that maybe a small bistro table outside to eat on as otherwise we ate at bar stools and patio furniture might need some updating as the vinyl was old and worn and a bit dirty but again such a minor issue. It was also super quiet at night and we loved walking through the various parts of two and the beach was two blocks from us and lovely.

Why they chose this property

Before my husband Edward Gilliam (renowned painter) passed away, he kept his paintings in an extra bedroom we had on,the property, I decided to add to that bedroom and create la Casita del Artista in his honor, which is now a complete apartment for your enjoyment.

What makes this property unique

Large lovely Garden, full of tropical plants, many sitting area throughout. A blooming cactus roof to relax, yoga or work if needed. The beach à block away. Two bicycles to get around town quickly. Beautiful paintings from my husband throughout the property. I think you will enjoy staying at Casita del Artista.. See you soon
