Cecilia was wonderful in arranging a birding guide for me , suggesting restaurants and ordering taxis. Location is right on the beach and you hear the ocean all day and night....heavenly. When not high tide you can walk the beach. Taxis are cheap and easy to get to stores and restaurants. Property is beautiful, so nice to get a drink and relax right there. Strong and reliable wifi.
