Location: Lima, Peru, South America (45 Km (23 Miles) South of Lima (Capital of Peru))
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Attached Unit, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)
Keywords: beach house Punta Hermosa
This is our family vacation home in Punta Hermosa, a small beach town located at 43 Km (26 miles) South of Lima, the capital of Peru. Driving time from Lima-Callao International Airport is approximately 1.5 hours, but only 35 min from Miraflores (the main district South of Lima). Our home has two stories independent from each other, each with its own kitchen and bedrooms. The rental is mainly for the newer section in the second floor, but renters may use the first floor facilities if so desired but these are less furnished.
The community of Punta Hermosa is represented by middle class residents from Lima who own these homes for vacationing during the Summer (January to March). However, the relatively mild weather during the other months of the year allow these homes to be used as peaceful and secluded places for vacationing. The surrounding areas of the town are home to native permanent residents, mostly from very modest economical status.
Punta Hermosa streets are paved with pressed sand and pebbles keeping the feeling of a beach town. Sidewalks are of conventional concrete. The water in the faucets is potable, good for cooking but borderline for drinking due to mild salty taste. We provide a 5 gallon plastic container of purified drinking water; refills are available at modest prices from several local small store markets (bodegas), and they can also be delivered to your door.
It is highly recommended not to leave valuables unattended, and your house door always closed and locked when you leave. Punta Hermosa has a Police Station at a few blocks from our home and policemen periodically patrol the city. Garbage is picked every day and you have to keep attention to their calling bell.
The house has a permanent guard who lives in the premises in the first floor and away from the private residence in the second floor. This guard does not use the house during the days the house is rented. Please, contact us if you have any questions. Our local phone numbers are 448-3325 and 99-633-7197 (Rafael La Rosa's cell).
