Lovely spot and super helpful host and staff. This small resort feels more secluded than nearby options and is great for families. On-site restaurant is great and our (older) kids could hang out in the pool when they were done with dinner but

Fantastic rental. Great communication with owner. Great location. I highly recommend!

Communication was excellent. Well equipped property right on the beach. Very relaxing!

We stayed at Villa Cala 11 for 5 weeks in January/February as a Covid getaway and we picked the perfect place. I search listings forever trying to find my perfect stay and I achieved it. Bahia Pez Vela Villa 11 has it all - about 100 steps to the beach and about 100 steps to the pool/bar/restaurant. We felt like we had a very private setting as well. We spent every morning on the balcony or the porch drinking coffee, followed by an hour swim in the pool ( water temps were perfect in both the pool and the ocean). We loved lounging by the pool, ordering drinks or lunch, or spending time in the shade on the beach. The black sand is a bit different as it is completely covered in high tide so it's always wet. But we got used to that and absolutely loved the sound of the surf all day long. We went to sleep with it and woke up to it.The villa itself had everything we needed and if we needed something else, they provided it ASAP - completely stocked kitchen, good beds and bathrooms, and loads of outdoor furniture and beach chairs.We did not rent a car during the 5 weeks so we figured out the system for ordering a cab and every driver was so good. They dropped us off, picked us up, waited while we shopped, etc.We had many dinners at Maracuya - the resort restaurant and they were so wonderful and romantic. All of us loved eating outside to the sound of the surf and the food was amazing. Chef Rodrigo was creative and so eager to please us with whatever we needed - the whole staff made us feel like family during our stay.We took several excursions during our stay including a great Palo Verde Nature Cruise and a boat trip - but we were happy just enjoying Bahia Pez Vela.We were totally intrigued by the wildlife around our Villa - the Magpay Jays have so much personality, the Raccoon who visited us a few evenings, the Parrots and my favorite - the Howler Monkeys. The Monkeys were around almost every day and we never tired of our monkey sightings and listening to their calls and watching them move across the property.Thank you to Al for all your great help and advice and to the folks in Villa 10 who created a wonderful beach bonfire one night.We will be back next year for sure.
