10/10 Excellent
"Todo en el hospedaje fue espectacular y conveniente para una estancia de relajo total. Tenía una locación muy buena cerca a la playa, restaurantes deliciosos y unas tiendas de conveniencia. La cocina y patio comunal son un gran plus! Además, tienen una tortuga que te hace compañía en cualquiera de esos lugares!"
