I can't say enough about this rental! It surpassed all our expectations far and wide. It was much larger than we had anticipated; the pictures on the website did not do this property justice at all. We were not in need of anything. This rental had EVERYTHING we needed for my family to prepare, serve, and eat dinners at home on a dining table. The kitchen had pots, pans, silverware, plates, a coffee maker, all that we needed was there. We were all able to relax in the living room and watch tv. We all slept very comfortably and even had a washer and dryer. We had WiFi, which was quite a relief since I realized too late that my phone would not work in Mexico. There was a beach within walking distance, but it was rocky and not quite suited for a relaxing swim. However, driving into town a little ways we were able to find an excellent beach called Algodones where we swam (in January!!). The neighborhood was quiet and we saw many other residences with Americans living there as we could see the plates on their cars. We NEVER felt unsafe, even when we walked to a few of the local stores. San Carlos was a wonderful experience and we can't wait to go back to this same rental.
