Have stayed at Las Mananitas 25 times, but first time in this unit. The place was clean, host was easy to communicate with, place is well maintained. Would rent again.

Everything was fine. The unit could use some updating and attention to some deferred maintenance items. W/D needs servicing. The primary screen door is non-functioning. The furniture could use a good shampoo. Aside from that, a nice stay.

Perfect location

The property itself is very nice and serene. The location is local to markets and restaurants just a block or two away, within walking distance. The pools are great as well as the small fridge and ice machine by the pools. The beach is beautiful, and you can walk for miles. The view from the unit is also outstanding. However, we had a small 3" Bluetooth speaker playing not even loud, just in the background as we spoke, and we had other renters tell us the owner's frown on music at the pool. Hmmm, this is SJDC. We also had a volleyball that we tossed around 3 ft from each other trying not to let it hit the water and count how far we can go. We were then told no balls in the pools. This doesn't make sense because there were only us (6) in the pools nobody else both times (both pools). The A/C in the master bedroom doesn't work too well either (it was locked?), but the remaining parts of the unit were great with the A/C, nice and cool. Also, they need to take more care of the floor mopping. I took a shower after being at the beach all day and within an hour the bottom of my feet were black from walking around inside the unit. I am not able to post a photo here. Overall, we had a great time. Don't get me wrong, we are all over 50 years old and have been to SJDC a dozen times. If you want boring and quiet this is the place for you.
