Nos gusto mucho nuestra estancia, estuvimos en una cabaña privada, la regadera al exterior nos parecio una linda experiencia. Cerca de la playa y tranquilo para escuchar el sonido del oleaje. La atención muy buena, tods nuestras dudas fueron resueltas rápido.

Puntos a observar

Un lugar muy bonito y agradable , lo único a mejorar son los aires acondicionados que no enfrían mucho y una mascota (gato) que se pasea por encima de la mesa y de lugares de uso común que hace que cuides de tu alimentos y limpies constantemente la áreas de alimentos

En lo personal, me encantó aunque para trasladarme a las playas si ocupé taxi que hiban de $150 en adelante en costos.. Las instalaciones me encantaron, sin duda volveria a hospedarme ahí, su vista me encantó muchísimo... Y su cama super suave e ideal para descansar después de la playa, paseos y demás... Super privado ideal si vas en pareja

Sólo me pareció un poco insegura ya que la puerta para salir a la calle no tiene ninguna cerradura y la puerta de la cabaña no me pareció del todo segura
