Great location. Spacious. Beautiful views.

I’m not sure what to say here. I normally never leave a bad review, but this place caused us a lot of trouble. We had little communication from the host, save the original instructions, but we managed to find the home. When we got there (on time), no one was there to give us the keys or grant entry, as promised. We knocked on the door, messaged the host, tried calling the host, and eventually contacted Airbnb support. They too failed to connect with the host. In the end, we were basically ghosted — a family with small children out in the middle of nowhere. We scrambled and found a local hotel. Not sure what the problem was with this home, but renters beware of the risk of being left stranded.

Everything was excellent as always!! Rafael was accessible and flexible, making adjustments and trying to make our stay better

Perfect Retreat to Truly Disconnect This beach cottage is exactly where you want to be if you’re looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. If you love—or grew up around—the beach like I did, you’ll appreciate how peaceful and refreshing the water is. The stress of the outside world melted away the moment my family and I stepped inside. The cottage is beautifully decorated, blending charming rustic touches with modern conveniences in a way that feels both cozy and intentional. I will absolutely be back—and next time, I plan to stay longer. If you’re hesitating because of the distance or the remote location, don’t. Put that aside and book it. You’ll be so glad you did. A special note about Rafael, the owner: he is incredibly kind and welcoming, treating guests more like friends than renters. This is exactly the kind of hosting experience you hope for. Highly recommend—enjoy!

Peaceful, remote area. Great beach view and access from the house and bedrooms. Completely private beach. Bbq area was nice. Well equipped. All bedrooms are great, and most bathrooms are updated and pristine. Amazing home for a family vacation. The host is very friendly and responsive. I will definitely be coming back!
