We arrived and I was completely taken aback. The views are everything I had hoped they would be. I like to call this the inside-out house. All your best living is outside. The bedrooms were very spacious, the beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were large and scenic! We had daily house care from Luz. She was amazing, we even had her cook for us one night. Next time, we'll have her cook every night! Yes, you can walk from the bottom of the stairs over to the beach. I don't suggest driving to Turtle Beach. I also suggest an SUV if you are renting a car, we scraped the bottom of our Sudan and had to make an insurance claim. DO NOT LEAVE THE AIRPORT WITHOUT PESOS. Credit cards are not widely accepted outside of the city, and they don't take foreign currency. Stop at the grocer before leaving the city for staple provisions, but for fresh fruits and veggies, you'll have plenty of roadside stands on the way to the house. Not a touristy area so not many touristy things to do. You are never going to want to leave this place! There is not enough room to state all the wonderful things about this place!
