I have stayed with Miki multiple times , and it is always a great, easy stay.  Miki is very responsive and helpful with local tips / providing all the extra needs to make the stay comfortable. Highly recommend!

Miki is a top tier host! She was very nice and  helpful on many fronts including helping to arrange airport transport, local car rental, various directions and local tips and her son provided some advice about where to surf. The house itself is very nice, just as described/pictured, with good amenities to cook at home and good AC. Had a great stay here!

I stayed here for two nights and I couldn’t have asked for a better start of my holiday. Starting with the arranged pickup from the airport which was perfect, to al what you need in the apartment. Miki is very kindand very helpful. Thanks for this amazing start of the holiday!

Hi Derek thanks for the great review! Happy travels!

Very nice space to stay in an excellent location. Very safe and nice outdoor area. Thank you !!

I didn't even meet Tyler and Dan but happy they had such a good experience!  Good guests, all tidy and clean, everything was turned off and key back in the box.    Thank you guys!

Miki’s loft was exactly what we needed for our stay at hacienda iguana. Very comfortable spot for 2. She was a friendly host who made sure to introduce herself and provide anything we needed. The area is amazing. Worth a stop at pili’s for food. Can’t wait to come back!

The accommodation was everything I expected, very comfortable, accessible, and clean, we had an amazing stay, what we enjoyed the most was the quick access to the beach 😊

El alojamiento fue todo lo que esperé, muy cómodo, accesible, y limpio, tuvimos una estadía increíble, lo que más disfrutamos fue el acceso tan rápido a la playa 😊

This was my second stay at this unit. The location is perfect! Watch a howler monkey hang out in the trees by your window or fall asleep in the evening to the choir of frogs. It is always a treat to stay here and the host Miki is super responsive and thoughtful. I would happily do a three peat!

Miki is always making sure that everything is fine, and that the stay is full. After spending a few spectacular days, the final day arrived and we were sad to return. They knocked on the door and we got a gift. It was her son who brought us a cookie she had made. Great detail!! Thank you very much Miki, we will return anyway.

Miki esta siempre al pendiente de que todo este bien,  y que la estadía sea plena , después de pasar unos días espectaculares , llego el día final y en plena tristeza de volver , nos tocaron la puerta y nos llevamos un regalazo era su hijo que nos traía una galleta preparada por ella . Genial el detalle!! Muchas gracias Miki volveremos de todas maneras.

Super grateful. Mike was always attentive to my questions and needs. Apartamento super clean . Iguana is a place that fills any expectation.

Súper agradecida. Mike siempre estaba atenta a mis preguntas y necesidades. Apartamento súper limpio . Iguana es un lugar que llena cualquier expectativa.

Perfect place for my friend and I! Close to restraunts/beach! Miki was beyond helpful :)

We loved this place. it's a quick walk to the beach to surf. It's a 10 or so minute walk to restaurants and the grocery store. Groceries are super expensive here, so make sure to stock up outside of Hacienda Iguana! Filtered water is very appreciated. Had amenities like salt, and left coffee and sugar as an extra nice touch. Had bath and beach towels, a place to store surf boards, nice shampoo and conditioner. There was a great outdoor shower. The house is behind the main house, so make sure you follow the photos in the instructions when you are finding it!

Hi Juliana Thanks for the great review and thank you for your feedback. We will be improving<br/> Those points you mentioned. Appreciate it

I loved my stay at this casita and instantly felt right at home. It is perfectly walkable to the beach club and surf out front. <br/>It is cute and private. The studio was equipped with everything I needed and was super clean. Miki is the best host and super helpful along the way! I would definitely stay again!

Miki is a wonderful host. She always makes sure that I got everything i need. Love the place. Super close to the main surf spot. Amazing restaurant close by. Highly recommend this place! Mahalo

Thanks so much Richard! ! Taqueria next time :)

Miki was a great host and her place was perfect for relaxing after surfing all day. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking to surf and maybe even get some work done. Thanks again Miki!

We enjoyed our stay at Mikis. The place is wide and luminous and close to the beach as indicated in the description. the AC works like a charm. Miki was really helpful and friendly, I'd love to go back.

I had a great time. The apartment is efficient, clean and complete. Mike was very kind and ready to help me with anything I needed. I will definitely be coming back!!!

Me la pasé súper bien. El apartamento es eficiente, limpio y completo. Mike muy amable y pendiente de colaborarme en lo que necesitara. Sin duda volveré!!!

The loft is beautiful, it's just a few minutes from the beach, it's clean, equipped, comfortable, Perfect for couples 🎉

El loft es precioso, esta a solo unos minutos de la playa, es limpio, equipado, cómodo, Perfecto para parejas 🎉

Such a perfect little spot. Super close to Pillis and the beach! Will definitely stay here again.

The place was exactly what I needed. Nestled in the tree tops and in a quiet location. The studio was clean, in a great location and well appointed. The host Miki was super attentive, informative and just overall a great human.<br/>The location is a very short walk to the beach.<br/>An added bonus is this area of Iguanas you get to hear the calls of the howler monkeys and once in awhile they will drop in to say hello and swing on the branches mere feet from your window.

Wow I need to stay there to see the iguanas! Thank you Adam! You too! A great human!

This is the second time I've stayed with Miki and first time in this space. Miki is a great host always happy to help with anything you need. The space is perfect. It is really clean, comfortable and it's a close walk to the beach and Colorados. Highly recommend staying here.
