We enjoyed our 2wks at "Aria Ocean". There seemed to be confusion with cab drivers when we said Aria Flamingos. It's in the Flamingos area though. The unit certainly has everything one could need. The construction is on the north side, and this unit is on the far south side, so you don't have a pool view, but a nice short cut around the back stairs to a piece of sand above the beach, which we loved, with some great sun shades, and not to many people. I was in the basement room, yes dark, but enjoyed the comfy bed, and traditional Mexican styled bathroom/shower. Could use some editing. Upstairs bedroom is very nice and big. Noise from Samba is done by 10ish no big deal. Cabs are easy to get thru front desk, you can walk to Mega in +15-20mins. There is also a deli/grocery store at Villa del Palmar to the north +5 for nessisities. Walk to Bucerias is +25 mins on beach and if u take the back road +20. The restaurant on site is excellent, they also do beach service, great price and guys are fantastic.
Dianne was very quick with responses, thank for the use of your unit.
