Me and my partner stayed here for 2 weeks. We loved it so much, we actually extended our trip by a few days. We are already talking about going back this winter.
The house and pool area are beautiful, just as pictured. Outside patio, grill area, and pool were great. We saw toucans, monkeys, all kinds of amazing birds. Inside the house was comfortable, AC worked great in the bedrooms, bathrooms were modern....

The property is large - several acres at least. Plenty of parking. The home is older, but large, with plenty of new furnishings and ample ocean view deck and patio space.
The pool area has a covered entertainment area that we really enjoyed.
