6BR Villa in San Rafael Coxcatlán

Briayan

Excellent, 4 weeks ago

It is a wonderful villa in terms of comfort, with large spaces throughout the villa. Every corner of the house is delivered very clean. You have the beach practically all to yourself, a large pool with the perfect temperature at any time, and excellent places to relax outdoors. We had everything we needed for cooking, barbecuing, separate beach and bath towels, amenities in all the rooms and in each of the bathrooms. The photos are identical to what you find when you arrive at the place. Everything is wonderful. Selene showed us all the bedrooms and the areas of the house when we arrived. She was always friendly and attentive to whether we needed anything. From day one, Jose Luis was attentive to us and made sure our visit was pure pleasure. In my opinion, the best thing is the views from the rooms, the beach, the pool, and the tranquility and privacy of being in a huge and beautiful house right on the beach. Thank you. We'll be back soon. We're leaving in love with the place.

Excellent service

Thank you very much, Cristian, for knowing how to enjoy and appreciate these days at the beach, taking advantage of our additional services!!!

the place is nice, and relaxing, it just needs a little cleaning, I found several cockroaches

Host Response

Erasmo, thank you for your visit! You should have kept it more orderly and clean DURING YOUR STAY.....The house was delivered perfectly clean and tidy to you upon your anticipated arrival at noon. You yourself toured my entire villa and each of its 6 rooms when you entered and everything was perfectly clean and in order. Even though check-in is until 3pm, other guests left that same day and yet you checked in at 11:55 am, with everything clean and tidy. We made a great effort to make sure you enjoyed yourselves as much as possible! The detail was that you did not clean up afterwards and left food scraps, without respecting the order, nature does not waste. That's why we suggest hiring additional services... but at least you had the opportunity to keep things tidy and clean! Thank you so much for all your 5 stars!!!! We look forward to seeing you back when you like:)

Excellent house!!! with a very good location, the views are very beautiful, José Luis is very attentive, kind and gave us very good recommendations, definitely a beautiful and clean place, the only detail is that there is no Internet, this would not have been a problem if we had been able to use our data, but there is no signal either, which left us completely incommunicado, we had to leave the house to look for a network and make calls or send messages... omitting this detail, have a great time!!!!

I was with my family here celebrating Christmas, the place is very father when you plan to spend a lot of time in the house. Be prepared to share rooms if they are multiple people, and the twin beds, are armchairs within the same room. The address on the airbnb listing is incorrect, it is not in casitas and we caused problems because we could not see things around to be able to plan activities or go to the super. The house was super clean, very spacious and the people they care for are very friendly. Yes, I would go again.

We had a great time, we were all the family and if we accommodated very well (24 people) only that I did not look at the beginning of the extras, you have to take it into consideration because the price increases a lot but it is completely worth it You have the privacy of the beach and it was clean All the time they were attentive to anything that was presented A/C well, cleaning, swimming pool, security, space, fret, all execelente No horn for music There is an Oxxo in front and 5 mins to eat and buy We would be back again 👍🏼

Excellent place to rest a weekend, it is really worth the rent, nothing to claim and above all excellent communication with the host, always aware that everything was with as much comfort as possible, the area is really very quiet, there is not much to improve, but in general satisfied, ample capacity for visitors. It's worth living your own experience, ours without words ! Service, lodging, quality hosts.

The location is awesome, it's a beach we really like for privacy. The house is very spacious for large groups and the girl who is in charge is very attentive, she supports very quickly in every situation, always attentive. Perfect place to rest and for large groups. The view is amazing, the sunrise can be appreciated from the balcony or on the beach. We loved the tranquility we had. In terms of details; of the two refrigerators only one works and with few things inside; it's important to bring repellent, there are many flies and some mosquito nets are broken, so we chose not to open the windows of the room and therefore there was no ventilation. In our case, we were 20 people and the hot water was not enough, although the details of the boiler were taken care of, in my room there was no hot water. We appreciate the hospitality and attention.

Good place, excessive prices

Host Response

Gerardo Thank you so much for your honesty and rating us 5 stars in everything, the highest rating 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 - 5 star quality! - Cleaning also gave us 5 stars ! - Exactness with 5 stars too! - Check Inn (granted early) - 5 star communication! - 5 star location! In the price you rate us low, the capacity of your pocket obviously does not approach the quality of my Villa or its facilities, however I know that they enjoyed it very much because they exceeded the check-out time beyond what is allowed!!

From the first moment José Luis was making us aware of our accommodation. Upon arrival there were some details with the air conditioning that were immediately resolved. That let me see that they were always on the lookout for us. We bought the food, they have very good season and everything was very good. You can eat in the dining room near the beach or inside the house. The people who serve you always ask where you'd like. They are on the lookout and take care of you in wonder. Cleanliness is one of the things that are very worth the place. Definitely everyone was satisfied, happy and very rested. The place is very good for its location, but it is complemented by the cleanliness, communication, and service of José Luis and his team of people who take care of you. We hope to return very soon. Thank you all!!!!

A very pleasant stay. A very good place for large groups.

The house delivers what it promises. It's an excellent place for a safe family vacation. The beach was practically private and we were grateful for the staff's careful attention. The food plan is highly recommended and the preparation of the fish is worth mentioning. Thanks again!

Host Response

It was a delightful experience, María del Pilar. Thank you for visiting! We are very proud of all your compliments about our excellent "Food Plan." Congratulations on the wise decision!!!

Excellent, 5 years ago

Highly recommended. The house is in excellent condition and very well located. Ideal for family trips. Of course I'm coming back!

An excellent option for relaxing. Everything about the house has been incredible. The service has been very good. The location of the house is better than I expected. The pool is quite large, and you are just a few steps from the beach. The rooms with air conditioning work very well. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals, with all the utensils and appliances. The only thing to note is the path down to the beach. Since it is a sandy area, it can erode, and it takes a bit of work to get down to the beach, but otherwise there are no complaints!!!

100% recommended!! We had an unforgettable stay. Both the children and the adults enjoyed it very much, largely thanks to the excellent condition of the facilities and the great service we received from José Luis and the people who attended to us. I highly recommend the food package. Very tasty food and very complete service. The spotless place and facilities in very good condition. We will definitely be back!!

The host's service is top-notch; the responses I received were clear and prompt at all times. He was always attentive to our concerns and/or suggestions. The house is in perfect condition and is quite spacious. It has all the cooking utensils for cooking and has enough dishes for 20+ people. Right in front of the house there is an Oxxo that can help supplement whatever is needed to have a good time. I definitely recommend it.

José Luis is very friendly, excellent service!!!

We spent three days with the family that we enjoyed greatly. Each bedroom is spacious and four of them have ocean views. We decided to order the food service and they served us so kindly that our family was delighted with the food and the service.

Host Response

Yuyi, thank you very much, and as with all our guests, we are proud that the Food Plan you decided to take throughout your stay also delighted you! We look forward to welcoming you again... See you next time!

The house is very nice in general, clean and the beach is practically private. The pool is a good size and nice. The bad point I see is that access to the beach is very complicated, my parents could not go down to the beach since there are no stairs or ramp to go down. The beds are very hard, the rooms do not have blackout curtains, so there is a lot of light early in the morning.

Host Response

Thank you very much, Monica, for your visit. I'm glad you had a great time! Beach access was due to a recent rise in sea level caused by the passage of recent weather systems. We are already working on the project to give you the best possible solution. The mattresses are NEW and you get to be the first to use them!!! And, of course, La Villa is located in front of the beach with ocean views. With more than 4,000 square meters on the property and rooms with ocean views, the lighting is a 10!!! We look forward to seeing you soon here in Costa Esmeralda or in Boca del Río!!! Best regards,

An excellent place to spend a few days as a family, super spacious, with a beautiful house, the rich pool and the excellent sea, apart from having staff to support who are always attentive to help, and also super recommended the food package, so you just dedicate yourself to enjoying this Paraiso 🤩

Host Response

Our space promises nothing but enjoyment and relaxation! Our Food Plan is excellent, so you can arrive with just your suitcases and enjoy a luxury vacation!!! I hope Veronica comes back soon, and I'm at your service!!!

I highly recommend the Villa! The service of José Luis and his staff is excellent! Everything is in super good condition and the garden and pool are super spacious! Access to private beach and the rooms and common areas are super clean and very very spacious! My family loved it!!

Host Response

Anna, thank you for letting yourselves be pampered in my Villa with our excellent services!!! Looking forward to it!!!

The comfort of the house is very good, however there are details such as the cleanliness of the site in the common areas such as the pool area where there are too many red ants, even the daily maintenance of the pool and of which are very small, the exit to the beach of the house which shows a total lack of cleanliness, these details prevent the experience from being the expected one, the house begins to lack maintenance especially in the bathrooms and sinks.

Host Response

David, the maintenance of the Villa is ongoing. Proof of this is the consistent and continuous excellent reviews. You received the Villa in a perfect state of cleanliness and order. You and I confirmed this by phone. You didn't want to pay for cleaning DURING YOUR STAY, so you took care of that and that's why there were bugs. All the services we offer during the stay are perfectly described and explained. WE ARE NOT A HOTEL. We don't give surprises, so your review surprises me! I sent you all the information in a timely manner. 1.- Indeed, we insist on offering you, as an option, all the amenities that have made us FAVORITES in Costa Esmeralda. The fact that you have not been able to take them means that you will have to take care of the cleaning during your stay, and therefore the decision to enjoy your days in order and cleanliness is yours... In truth, our great food plan is GOURMET AND FOR THE WHOLE DAY. It is not comparable to a buffet, where you either have breakfast, or only eat lunch, or only have dinner... since we offer it ALL DAY, and that is why David has ALWAYS rated us with 5 stars, and for all our additional services. Its price proves it and it is OBVIOUSLY not for ordinary budgets. We are not an option for just anyone. Indeed, the Costa Esmeralda area is rural and has limited offerings, which is why MY VILLA IS OUT OF THE ORDINARY, AS ARE ITS ADDITIONAL SERVICES, AND THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO APPRECIATE THEM HAVE RATED THEM ACCORDINGLY. The posted price is for 18 guests of any age. That is posted in the listing. Again, we don't give surprises. I also sent you all the information beforehand. I have proof of that. The pool was given to you freshly filled with clean water to welcome you, and chlorine, bactericide and clarifier were applied daily. It doesn't get dirty by itself. You were THE ONLY ONES who used it... Sometimes there is trash on the beach, and we take care of cleaning it up. We are very interested in doing so! David, personally, I would be very embarrassed to expose myself with photos and videos of the garbage that I myself generated! If I don't clean and I don't want to pay for someone else to do it, I shouldn't complain and you do! The shower leak was taken care of and fixed promptly. Housekeeping was offered during your stay and you did not want it. As I mentioned, if you do not pay for someone to clean and you do not do it, how do you expect the house, bathrooms, pool, etc., etc., to be kept clean? That's why I insisted so much, David! I hope you can come back and be convinced of these additional services! And now I just need to ask you to finish paying the full amount that was missing. Please, you still owe us 2,500 pesos.

Wonderful experience. We took a person in a wheelchair, and we especially appreciated that there was enough space to move it, both to the beach the pool and in the bathroom and the room. We loved Selene's helpfulness, who was always very attentive to everything we needed. The place is just amazing. I thought I was exaggerating when I said Wow when I got there, but when I heard my daughter say the same expression when she arrived a little later I realized it wasn't the only one. Thank you for your attention, and for all the service. And especially for an amazing weekend. We are thinking about when we will return and we also pass the recommendation to other family members who were unable to join us

Host Response

On the contrary, Consuelo, thank you. It's great that your only surprises were seeing that our Villa on the Beach and our services, such as the Food Plan, are exceptionally good, exceeding your expectations!

We had a wonderful time. A great house (location, spaces, furniture) and service. José Luis was very kind and attentive to everything. The food plan was sensational. We hope to return soon.

Host Response

We would be very pleased to have you back here again, especially with the splendid Food Plan that we offered you. It was a real delight!!! We were delighted, and we hope we can have the pleasure of serving you again soon! See you next time!!!

Excellent, 6 years ago

The best thing is that it has access to the beach and 4 of the 6 rooms have ocean views! Apart from that, there's plenty of room in the bedrooms.

Host Response

That's right, Mayra! Just as described in the listing. Thank you very much for your kind and cordial visit! We look forward to seeing you back again!!! Best regards,

We were happy during our stay! Perfect service, the ideal place to spend a few incredible days. JOSE LUIS is an excellent host!!

Host Response

Melissa, it was a real pleasure to welcome you here in La Playa. We were delighted to see you enjoy our excellent facilities!!! I already have your forgotten items ready; please just let me know when you’d like to come by and pick them up. Please come back as many times as you like!!!

The host is excellent, responds quickly and is attentive to needs and situations that arise. The service from the cook and the food are very good. Unfortunately, the house lacks maintenance. The cleanliness of the house is not good, the towels are worn and old, the WIFI is very unstable, the beds are very hard, and the assistant's service leaves much to be desired.

Host Response

Ximena, thank you very much for your good comments, we are proud to know that they had a very comfortable time. Your feedback is encouraging to us. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you again. I also want to let you know that the villa has just been completely painted, as well as the pool, and we have completely replaced our towels. The curtains and blinds in all 6 rooms have been new since November. The internet is from INFINITUM and supports up to 6 users connected at the same time. We are very sorry for the instability you experienced when more than 12 people were connected at the same time. Lastly I want to tell you that our Villa is the best price and quality given its large size and capacity. Your feedback is always very helpful. We look forward to seeing you back here in Costa Esmeralda very soon!!

I highly recommend the house. All the services are 5 stars. It is very worthwhile to hire the additional services. Selene, the cook, is very attentive and helpful. Delicious cuisine. The seafood is delicious. I prepared a grilled snapper that my whole family liked. We enjoyed the garden, the pool and the access to the beach to the fullest. And the best part is that the view from the upstairs bedrooms offers a wonderful landscape. My family was delighted and very much looking forward to returning. Regards.

Everything excellent

Host Response

Thank you, Emmanuel. I'm glad you decided to purchase our additional services. They undoubtedly made a very important contribution to ensuring that they enjoyed their stay in my villa to the fullest. I really appreciate your order and cleanliness. I hope you come back soon to enjoy the Villa again, its private and direct access to the beach, and all the amenities we offer!!! See you soon!!

We really enjoyed our stay at the villa. There's no better way to enjoy a vacation than in a place that's just for you. The villa has access to the beach, which is very convenient since it is actually a private beach. In general, all areas are very spacious. The person who helps in the kitchen prepares whatever you like. It's very convenient because you can just focus on enjoying yourself. The staff supports you at all times. José Luis is undoubtedly the best host, very attentive and kind and always attentive to our stay. We hope to return soon.

Host Response

I will always be delighted to welcome guests of such high quality as you!!! Please come back anytime you like!!! See you next time

José Luis's house is spectacular, overlooked by our expectations and we had a time of the best in it. The proximity of the house to its private beach and the sea is perfect and if it were not enough you have a large pool in the huge patio of the house. The rooms are very large and we comfortably slept 18 people. Each room has its own private bathroom. The extra amenities of the house increase the quality of the stay. This house sets a new standard for the places I've been to.

The house is very nice, the spaces are large and pleasant, the staff is very attentive and friendly at all times. The very rich food. Everything at hand, in short, an excellent property for an unforgettable weekend.

Host Response

It was a pleasure to serve you, René. Thank you so much for the opportunity to be part of your story by renewing your marriage vows in our spacious garden with an ocean view. Please come back anytime!!!

The house is very nice, comfortable, very clean, quality service.

A super comfortable house. Spacious rooms; living room, palapa and kitchen, suitable for family activities with plenty of space. The regional food they prepare is very tasty and affordable, much cheaper than in any restaurant. But what is delightful is the access to the beach, which is, in fact, private. The sea is calm and shallow, to enjoy with little ones. I will gladly return and highly recommend our host, his staff and, of course, the house "La Gaviloncha".

Very good house, very spacious spaces and it has the necessary amenities
