Luxury, family-friendly residence with unlimited views of the Pacific Ocean!

Beautiful home and property with spectacular ocean views

We loved the pool and the outdoor living areas. Antonia and team were lovely to is and so helpful. Georgina was a fabulous host. We're already planning a return visit...

We had an amazing family vacation at Casa Jaguar. The home is gorgeous and the views and sunsets are spectacular. We enjoyed many meals prepared by Adriana - breakfast, lunch and dinner and they were all delicious. Tonia and Iselda were a pleasure - always smiling and willing to do whatever they could to make our stay enjoyable. The home was spotless and very tastefully designed, no small details overlooked.

Thank you Georgina for our allowing us to share in your piece of paradise - you were also a pleasure to deal with and very responsive to any of our requests.

If you are a looking for a stress free vacation in a gorgeous home then look no further - we would highly recommend.

The Good:

Casa Jaguar is a gorgeous home in a spectacular, safe location with stunning views from every room. The house is beautifully designed with great attention to detail. The staff of three is wonderful. If you love home-made tortillas, ceviche, fresh fish, rice and beans. mole or other traditional Mexican fare, you are in for a treat. The food served at the home is fantastic.

The main floor consists of 4 large, air-conditioned bedrooms, kitchen, living room, outdoor dining room, lawn and pool area. Each bedroom has its own full bath, a large closet and more than one bed. Internet is available throughout the house.

The Bad:

Unfortunately, the upstairs (actually, up-ladder) bedroom - despite amazing views - is not worthy of this lovely home. There's no place to hang a towel or clothes (despite the listing stating that all bedrooms have closets). There's not even a mirror in the bathroom - to shave, you have to descend 2 flights to the well-lit bathroom in the basement. The "king-sized" bed is really two twin mattresses, so if you cuddle with your sweetie, someone will sleep uncomfortably on the crack. And the water in the shower sometimes slows to a literal trickle with no warning. There's also a room-wide step between the bathroom and bed. Because the step is at an angle to the bathroom, we each tripped several times, especially at night.

We chose this rental in large part because this home boasts a shaded, heated pool with a large shallow area for our youngsters and a swim-up bar for adults. We wrote the host in advance to ensure the pool was heated to our desired temperature, and the host graciously confirmed those arrangements a few days before our arrival. However, in the 10 days we were there, the heater never worked, and the pool was usually too cold for us to use it. {The adjacent narrow lap pool was unheated but 5 degrees warner because it is in the sun. It was fine for adults. However, the kids couldn't play there on the fun pool toys we brought because they would have hit their heads on the side of the pool when falling off. Also, that pool has no shallow area.)

The TV in the media room had no reception (confirmed by the owner after our arrival).

Everything is excellent! The view is amazing and the service are great!

We hope to come back soon!

Beautiful property and lovely location and staff although very little English spoken. Would do well to have a part time concierge to assist. Also tried to communicate with Owner multiple times via email but for some reason did not receive a response which is strange and certainly do not appreciate receiving a negative rating from her on our own traveler profile when we certainly tried to reach out multiple times! Luckily the very kind staff helped us.

Everything was perfect--the staff, the home, the owners, the views, and of course the margaritas. We will definitely be back! Could not have dreamed of a better vacation.
