Surprisingly secluded even amidst the construction traffic next door which didn’t bother us too much. Pictures make the house and pool look larger than in real life but it was still a nice and spacious place for 2. Had issues with door locks but felt safe enough, esp with the gated/fenced property that it was never a problem for us. Property management team is very hospitable and helpful throughout our stay. Farther from Tunco than we were hoping but it was great to be able to walk to Sunzal to surf. We’d def stay here again.
