6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
First let me say we had a very good time despite a few disappointing things. The villa was a bit oversold. It was adequate for our needs but little things like sheets with tiny holes, dirty bathroom walls,especially the down stairs half bath. The pool was in the shade 90% of the day. Gated community is dirt roads with a arm across the entrance unattended during the day. Kristi made the car rental and transportation to and from the airport very easy. The house is 30-60 minutes from activities such as fishing, snorkel boats, zip lining etc. 3 restaurants in the compound was a plus. The beach is quiet and beautiful. Watch the water.. strong rip tides in some areas. Take them serious when they say to keep doors locked and alarm activated. We failed to lock a sliding door and the alarm was not set the night we were robbed while we slept. Our own fault for getting complacent as the area feels very safe.
