A home base and a home away from home
We loved the beautiful, safe, quiet neighborhood, in nature and within walking distance of town and swimming. The house is clean, bright and appealing. The simple floor plan, the two outdoor covered areas, and the simple decor and functionality of this house were great!
We had some days when we stayed in for a long morning, while our teens slept in (one came down with a bug during our stay and was able to convalesce quietly there any time of day). I enjoyed walking in the neighborhood and the clearing behind the house, and saw a wonderful variety of birds and butterflies there. Other days we were up and able to get to amazing places with ease. We cooked several times for dinner, and the kitchen worked well, with a window over the sink. You might bring a few small necessities like your favorite pan, potholders, or spatula if you plan to cook a lot. The beach chairs, unbrella, etc. were very useful for a trip to nearby Xcacel beach for first-rate snorkelling. No sunscreen is allowed when swimming there, so the shade was a helpful (Bring biodegradable sunscreen from home-- we couldn't find it readily in nearby stores)
Helene made great recommendations for plaves to go-- both printed and in the online description, and even on the fly as we were getting our bearings in the neighborhood.
We would love to come back for another stay! There is so much to see and do in nature and culture here, and the people around are delightful, welcoming, and patient with our beginner Spanish skills.
