Don’t miss this spot! Great accommodations for a larger group. The pictures don’t do it justice, beautiful view over the ocean with plenty of space to make yourself at home. And the fishing trip is an added bonus! We loved it.

One of my best experiences!! The house is very nice, with enough space both to share with family or friends and to rest. Everything is well-organized and clean. The kitchen is very comfortable, with everything within our reach. An important point is that it is not necessary to bring water, since they use osmosis. The spectacular view, the unbeatable beach access, and Playa Redonda are beautiful and quiet, ideal for different activities. The landscape is beautiful, and with the area's fauna, it's quite a spectacle. Gerald, the manager, is an excellent person, very kind, always attentive and fully willing to help with whatever we need. We really enjoyed our stay at Aquiles's house, and of course we'll be back!!

The accommodation is surrounded by nature, 2 minutes from a beautiful beach with a small restaurant (a bit expensive; we only had cocktails there) beautiful bedrooms with air conditioning in each one. Large kitchen with somewhat limited equipment. Perfect swimming pool with sea view. Bathroom that needs a little love but nothing serious; there is a lack of pressure, and the shower jets are a little problematic. Really perfect for peace and quiet and relaxation, but you must have a car; otherwise, it's impossible to stay there for several days. Good restaurant and other beaches within a 10-15 minute drive.

Even more beautiful than the pictures. Playa de la Redonda is quiet and perfect for relaxing. The kids didn't want to leave! The monkeys came to visit us without being disruptive! Deep sea fishing was magical! And Gérald is always super available and willing to do anything to help!

I loved the place, the view was amazing, the house was very clean, a place to come back to. We were lucky enough to see turtles on our first trip; it was a recommended experience.
