The house was beautiful and as described in the listing. We had a group of 10 consisting of adults and children. There was more than enough space for our group size, the pool kept the children busy for hours and exploring along the shore was also a lot of fun. Great location just a couple minute drive into town. The house keeper did an amazing job and the host was very responsive to all my questions and helped set up boat rentals and provided great recommendations for places to eat.

Villa Oceana was the perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. The hosts, staff, concierge, and vendors made our stay completely effortless. Everyone was responsive, friendly, & most of all genuinely caring. The villa itself was beautiful, with spacious rooms, beach access, stunning scenery, and such a peaceful atmosphere. But what truly made the experience unforgettable were the people. Without them, it would have simply been another beautiful home. They kept everything clean, safe, & easy-going while always being attentive to our needs. They coordinated taxis, excursions, & provided outstanding referrals that made the entire wedding experience seamless. A special thank you to Julieta and Sofia, our wedding planners, who were absolutely amazing. I cant thank them enough for helping create the perfect day for our daughter and our family. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay at Villa Oceana, but above all, it was the people who made our stay special & memorable
