Alta Vista holiday rentals

Every lovely thing you read in all the other reviews is exactly true! The short version--If you've got a group of 8-10 -- Book. This. Villa. We had a wonderful weeklong Christmas stay. Exceptional communication pre-arrival from the owners. Once you get there, the warm, friendly staff will take great care of you without being one ounce obtrusive. Easy to communicate with and attentive--they even noticed that we had a tiny string of Christmas lights out on the counter that I forgot to get batteries for and one morning when we woke up they had put batteries in it and turned it on. Christina, Jaime and Heidi were wonderful! (Please tell them we miss them already!) Believe all the reviews that talk about the exceptional breakfasts and snacks with poolside margaritas. We are all forever ruined. Property is as pictured and then some--sprawling place with plenty of unique nooks and crannies for together or private time. The open-air living/kitchen/dining/pool area is stunning and has THE BEST VIBE! Controlling your own AC in the bedrooms was a hit for our group. It’s near everything, just slightly up a short incline—enough to give a lovely view of the bay but not so far up that you must take a taxi—but you can. We walked back sometimes and taxi’d back some, depending on what we were wearing or carrying. It’s also lush and private, nestled in just the perfect spot. I highly recommend a stay (or a dozen) here!
