Amapas

"We had a great time at Casa Vista Linda! We travelled with our 17 & 19 yr old children and they both brought friends. The house is spacious, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kids especially liked the t.v. room where they could hang out in the evenings and watch movies etc., while my husband and I would sit outside and enjoy the beautiful sunsets. The only downside is the wi-fi is pretty iffy, so if you don't have an international calling plan to set up a hotspot, you would need to be near the modem. Alfredo met us at the house when we arrived, (used the driver service) and he had previously stocked the kitchen with everything we requested. We used the cook for breakfast and lunch one day which was very nice. Eva the maid is great too. The walk to the beach is down the cobblestone street and the stairs, (155) but really not bad at all, although with small children I may recommend a taxi. We took the bus to Mismaloya one day for jet skiing and for 8 pesos it can't be beat. Just walk down to the hwy 200, cross the street, and wait at the big rock. The bus comes every 20 minutes and the ride is about 30-40 minutes. The Sea Monkey on the Malecon has great food and $1 beers. Near there is the Loco Langostino, where you can sit upstairs in the breeze and get a bucket of 6 beers for 100 pesos. There is parasiling, snorkeling at Los Arcos and of course tons of shopping. Very safe to walk around, lots of Americans, gay couples, great restaurants and tequila shops as well. We will definitely be back!!"
