Ernesto and Marielle were incredibly thoughtful and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. The home was fully equipped with everything our family could have asked for — spacious rooms, a kitchen, and plenty of entertainment options for the kids. The location was also great close to everything we wanted to explore, but honestly our children didn’t want to leave the property. The highlight for us was the saltwater pool and plenty of space to play. Highly recommend this place for families looking for a relaxing and fun getaway!
