"Housekeeping was great about cleaning the rooms but they were outdated, we had no hot water 4 of the 10 days we were there. The pool was almost never cleaned ans we had alot of mosquitoes due to that. We upgraded from a standard room to the nicer pool and other than access to the pool temp jacuzzi and cabanas it was not worth it. The cheaper room was better maintained and regulated... the only thing that made our stay worth it was the outings we booked with their travel group and the fact it wasnt covered with seaweed grass like the rest of the country. We did have to Uber to and from the airport as they also dont offer the service"

"For the amount I rented it was a very good deal. All the common area property is very well cared for. The apartment itself could use some minor repairs like door knobs. But it wasn't a big deal, the air conditioners worked excellent. The kitchen was fully stacked with everything we needed and more. The cleaning could have been a little better since the floor felt a bit sandy, perhaps with a vacuum, and found a cockroach in the main bathroom. But that can happen anywhere. The beach are is great for parents seeking to relax while kids play in the sand. We also enjoyed a great deal in the pool."

"We had a wonderful stay at the villa and had a truly great experience overall. The staff were beyond excellent and made our stay especially enjoyable. Frank and Jonathan were incredible—attentive, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile. Chef Wanda also did an amazing job; every meal she prepared was absolutely delicious!The villa itself was beautiful, very spacious, comfortable, and a wonderful place to relax and spend time together.Our only suggestion would be for the host to improve communication and the overall organization process. It would be helpful to have all the details clearly explained in advance, including the available extra services and exactly what they include. A smoother and more comprehensive communication process would make the experience even better.Other than that, we all had a fantastic time and truly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend the villa and especially want to thank Frank, Jonathan, and Wanda for making our trip so memorable!"
