Admito que estuve un poco preocupado por los malos comentarios que ha recibido este lugar pero no ví nada de eso durante nuestra estadía, mi familia y yo la pasamos muy bien, dormimos cómodos, la casa es más bonita que en las fotos, muy bien equipada, bastante fresca y espaciosa, solo hubieron pequeños detalles mínimos pero no importan ya que la verdad disfrutamos bastante durante nuestra estadía.

Great view, with great service, We really enjoyed our stay. Amazing view for our outdoor dinners. The pool was refreshing and was cleaned regularly. We had some issues with the water, but our Special Places team were hard working and fixed any problems fast. I would recommend others to stay.
