Charming, romantic beachfront studio with a king bed, AC and maid service.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay and would highly recommend. The studio is well designed and well equipped and the gas grill was a great bonus. The AC and hot water were both exceptional. The patio had outstanding ocean views, which was just steps away. The snorkeling directly out the door was excellent and the beach afforded great, long walks. We will be back to this specific unit!

Being on the beach was the best! Being on/near a national park was lost on us. Was the park the turtle conservation?? If so that was extremely fascinating. The ability to snorkel from our condo to the reef was amazing. We saw all manner of marine life. Rita was great coming everyday to clean up - being on the beach means a lot of sand everywhere!!

The place was awesome. Beautiful right on the beach.

The pristine studio, clean, well appointed and maintained, couldn’t have been closer to the beach w/out being underwater. You step from your bed to the patio, onto the sand. The ocean view coupled with the sound of crashing waves is like being in paradise. Everything you need or want is at hand. Some of the condos are privately owned and may account for the unfortunate eyesore of the adjoining balcony to my ground floor space: it was deteriorating and the side of my patio was littered with some trash, rotting wood, etc. Regardless of who owns it, I was disappointed that my patio was impacted to the degree that it was. The only other disappointment was the check in process. My driver nor the guard at the property entrance spoke English. I spoke no Spanish. We were turned away! Twice. I finally found the hard copy paperwork for my reservation, came back, and kept pointing to my name and the name of the property on the paper. He very reluctantly let me in but it felt like like it was a grudging act, about as far from feeling welcome as one could imagine. It would have been nice ( and expected, given the degree of security in place) if my name had been on his clip board. The hallway in the building itself was so dark that I couldn’t see the lockbox numbers without the ( inadequate) light from my phone. I was only able to navigate the lockbox and key by way of a kind and alert neighbor who got my door open. These were minor, passing inconveniences which in no way detracted from an exquisitely enjoyed vacation. I was so happy and so satisfied that I attempted to re- book the studio after my 1st few days there. No luck for this unit, but I am definitely returning. You’re in a residential area- there are no immediate options for any shopping, etc. without benefit of a vehicle. I took a taxi to the Buddha Garden Spa for a massage- maybe 10 minutes away- $40 round trip. There’s a restaurant/bar on the beach close by- fun place with wonderful food and good drinks. You use the hotel pool and while this listing was specific about all of the hotel amenities NOT being part of your rental, another listing for another unit that is privately owned said the exact opposite, suggesting that you can eat all of your meals there and so on. I cooked my own meals so didn’t test this . It’s quiet, private and an exceptional alternative to staying in one of those gigantic hotels. You really, really can’t go wrong here. It’s perfect. And safe!
