This two-story home is quaint, spotless, and incredibly peaceful with a great patio. The layout is perfect for couples, with a cozy kitchen and living area downstairs and two bedrooms and a bath above. Tucked away in lush island greenery, the house is surrounded by the wonderful sounds of nature. Our local host was a pleasure to work with—highly responsive and helpful with the few minor needs we had. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return!

The house is in a great location with easily walkable stores, restaurants and beaches. The large patio makes the house feel larger. The outdoor bathtub is a nice touch as well as the outdoor shower and hose to wash off all the sand.

Wonderful beach bungalow!

The house was exactly as described with a perfect location with short walk to beach. Comfy bedrooms with little balcony overlooking sunset and sea were great. Patio area was a nice place to relax and cook out on the grill. Hosts were easy to communicate with and professional. Great stay and wonderful home base in Puntas.

Perfect little retreat!

Quiet area for rest and relaxation. We loved the outdoor area, we sat out every morning for coffee and evenings we grilled and had cocktails. Walking distance to sandy beach and barefoot yoga. Ryan, Erica, and their children are exceptionally friendly and provided anything we needed. Will definitely stay again!
