Gardeners Reward 5br right at Pangas Drop break

Perfect beach front.  Gorgeous house.  Gaby cooks delicious.  Coming back for sure.

The place was great! Looks better in person. Very clean. Right in front of the beach. A bunch of restaurants near the entrance to iguanas. And one at the south end of the beach which is great for sunsets. On the north end just across the estuary there’s a great taco place!  Will definitely go back again.

Thank you Gabriel, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Gardeners Reward, it's true the location is fantastic, we are so glad you enjoyed the location and the sunsets! And yes, the Taqueria across the estuary is also one one of our top restaurant recommendations within walking distance from the house, the tacos and ceviche are delicious!

Gorgeous place, beachfront with lots of trees.

Incredible family destination! The house was beautiful and great location on the beach. Lots of shade in the morning and pool/patio was very nice. Concierge was the most accommodating I have ever worked with. Also the meal service is amazing, some of the best Nica food we have ever had, our chef was so nice and cooked so well we had a feast every day and cleaning service was also amazing. Some of the most friendly staff we have worked with and they were great to talk to during our stay as well! Coming back 100%

Beautiful house. Family of 11 fit perfectly and very open. excellent communication. Helpful and Pet Friendly.

Incredible house in front of the beach. Great host and very responsive. Totally worth it.

Absolutely amazing house & location! I live in California & have visited many beaches in California, Hawaii & Mexico. This beach is stunning. The house was wonderful.

I can't say enough great things about the house and David. The house is everything you can ask for. Beautiful and private with modern touches, large kitchen, and beautiful pool area. The garden attracts lots of cool wildlife and is steps away from the beach. David was super friendly and helpful with anything we needed. It's also nice to get access to Hacienda Iguana. We'll definitely be back!

David, Gabie, Karol and team were incredible! It was so worth having Gabie help us with amazing food in the mornings and David was always very responsive especially when the power was out and the generator didn’t kick in.  He helped every step of the way and we felt very cared for. It was a magical week of a ton of friends coming together to celebrate the wedding of two of our best friends and this house was the best in the beach. The bride and friends felt it was a calm sanctuary compared to some of the other party houses. It was a wonderful week and thanks to David and the team again!

This place is incredible.   It is right in front of Panga Drops so if you are surfer the location doesn't get better than this.  We don't surf but our boys had a blast watching the surfers.  There are smaller waves that the kids had a blast body surfing and boogie boarding in.   The house has more trees surrounding the properties, you get some shade and privacy.   The beds were comfy, and the master bedroom is connected with another bedroom which was great if you are traveling with young kids.   The service and property managers are top notch.  I have never experienced this type of service.  They made us feel like celebrities.   Gabby the housecleaner was there everyday and did our laundry.  We also hired Gisele a wonderful local chef to cook breakfast and dinner.   The property manager David and Kristhell were so responsive.   They set up a few tours and we felt very well taken care of.  I would definitely stay at this house again or look for a property they manage.

Great host, staff, and location! Highly recommend

Gardener’s reward is one of the best houses we’ve been at Iguana in the past 3 years. It’s a lot of privacy and shade from the big tress and the beautiful garden. It’s oriented south so that also helps with the shade and decreasing the sound of the ocean that’s amazing, but can be a little to much to sleep. <br/>Really full kitchen and grill, everything in the house is confortable and beautiful. Gaby, the cleaning lady, was also great!

Thank you for your kind words Mari, we look forward to host your family again in the near future!

Location couldn’t be better. Amazing house to spend time with family and friends. David is always available in case you need anything. I will recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice stay at hacienda iguana.

The house is amazing! David and the whole staff were very kind. They helped us with everything we needed during our stay. Very clean and pleasant atmosphere. 10/10 recommend!

It was a pleasure hosting your family, we look forward to host you in the near future!
