We spent a delightful month in this condo, near the end of the summer low season. The unit is very well located on the top floor, with a great view of the golf course and sunset. We could even lay in the sun from about 3-5pm on our own, very private balcony. There are screened doors and windows on opposite sides of the condo, so it gets a very nice cross-breeze during the night. If anyone is worried about Zika, we never saw a mosquito here. There was pesticide fogging done occasionally in various locations around the neighborhood and golf course, but the very consistent breeze always carried it away from our condo. This particular unit really has an ideal location.
The furniture and all appliances are very good quality and work well. The whole-house water purifier is an extremely nice feature. The place was very clean when we arrived, including all of the extensive sets of silverware, glasses, dishes, pots and pans, and so forth. The internet was very consistent (down only once, after a storm in the middle of the night for a few hours), and the speed is 3Mbps down, 0.3Mbps up. That's fast enough for IP calling services like Skype, and for two or three people to watch Netflix at the same time. The owner was quick to respond to all communications, even though they were traveling when I first made an inquiry.
We did not have a car, and didn't miss one. The nearby supermarket has a good selection. The whole area is very safe day and night, and there's a public beach access a short walk away, right next to the Barceló. We had a great time here. It's obvious the owners and manager have put a lot of thought, time, and care into making their guests feel welcome and comfortable. We sure did!
