We loved the view of the mountains, and waterfalls which would expand and contract with the rain. The gardens are lovely with orchids, banana trees, and other lush foliage, providing privacy. The house is beautiful with tropical colors and open windows lining the living spaces. The kitchen is well stocked with multiple pans, utensils, plates and glasses. Olive oil and vinegar were provided. Being able to walk to shops, restaurants and the beach was terrific for us. My husband and I are grandparents and vacationed with our children and grandchildren.
