Three couples stayed for 11 days. Armando and Olga were friendly, smiling and gracious. We loved the house and the property and the dogs. The oceanfront is rocky, but very private. The palapa could use some new furniture. Massages were available in the palapa, professional. What an experience! Loved the rooftop for sunrises and sunsets everyday. The beaches nearby are sandy and excellent snorkling, some of the best we've ever done. Tulum is close and we loved the neighborhood. Felt safe. Loved it!
Recommended for:Sightseeing, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers, families with teenagers.
