Figuring out how to use the hot water in both showers was difficult for some of us. The pool was great but the hot tub didn’t really get too hot and we had hoped the jets would have been stronger. I couldn’t figure out how to turn on the fan in my room but they had someone come over & helped with that. Overall a good stay.

The Penthouse is a stunning ocean front property. We enjoyed whale watching and sunsets on the patio and deck. We did not rent a car and it was easy to call ubers for very cheap rides to the Romantic Zone/Malecon, etc. There is a bus nearby that we would have used but we were there when services were interrupted due rare/ atypical unrest in the area. We felt safe and comfortable and the owner was quick to reply and check on us as needed. My biggest recommendation is to stop at a grocery store or build time into you first day to get to the grocery store if you plan on cooking a lot. There is an oxxo nearby and some small markets in the romantic zone to grab light groceries but they are not within walking distance. The Costa Sur property a few doors down has a resort market if you are desperate. You can also walk over and enjoy their restaurant and amenities. We spent a relaxing day at Sapphire Beach club, lots of time strolling the malecon and Romantic Zone, and had planned on a turtle release and whale watching tour but they were cancelled due to disturbances in the area. We hope to make it up next time as well as a visit to the botanic gardens and other small fishing villages nearby.

Great host, very responsive

The property is clean and updated with incredible wall to wall glass views of the ocean and a nice patio for outside whale and dolphin watching. Small infinity pool was nice as well off the lower level stairs or elevator. My only issue with this property was how remote it is and no beach access. To make this property a stay to enjoy you need a rental car and you need to go grocery shopping for your time there. The property is off a twisty coastal 2 lane road that does not have sidewalks and the Ubers will pass people on blind corners without a care for your life one bit. Wild couple rides for us then we bounced to an awesome hotel in the Malecon.
