House in Rincón del Mar

ErinRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We loved our stay at Daniel’s house. He was a great and responsive host, always quick to answer any questions or requests. The house is located in a beautiful gated community. We loved the location and felt safe. Bedrooms were great, comfy beds and house had lots of areas to hang out. Great stocked kitchen and the out door bar and rooftop deck was great bonus touch. We can’t wait to stay here again.

Cozy with Ocean and Mountain View

LeslyRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Lovely home to stay in with family. The beach was near within 8 mins in car, and La Bufadora was about 12 mins away. Cars were allowed to park inside which made us feel more comfortable rather than leaving them parked outside. Water pressure from sinks were low, but the showers had amazing water pressure! would definitely recommend this location.
