OK, so imagine all those photos of the blue domes U see on all the magazines, online marketing images, portraits, etc… Now imagine actually staying pretty much within arms length of the those 3 famous blue domes. Not next to it, not nearby it… literally right smack on it. You’ll notice mobs of people that travel all over the world to get a glimpse of the domes just a few feet away from your private residence, but they’re kept at bay (at a distance) by more than 1 (several) security gates. So yes, as U make your way out of your property through the private access & then eventually reach the further out public access areas, there are hoards of people morning, day, & night lining up to photograph the blue domes which are essentially located on your property.
Like it or not you’re gonna feel like a bit of a celebrity cuz U have access to the 1 spot everyone wants to be at. I wish the rating would allow 100 stars. It’s rare when photos & online reviews meet expectations. Don’t get me wrong, the online pictures are amazing, BUT… the real thing actually blows any photos U see out of the water. The WOW factor is just off the charts.
Then the other half of the equation is Mary & her team. If the place is ridiculous, get ready to meet ridiculous x 2. She’s got this breakfast to bed delivery down to an art. Never late, always on time. And not some rinky-dink breakfast. We’re talking omelette, eggs, bread, fruits, croissants, the whole 9. The porter assists bringing luggage to room at arrival & then again to car at departure. Believe me, that itself is its weight in gold because on day 1, you’re not finding this hideout w/ any Waze or Maps GPS system. U quickly learn your way once you’re there though. Mary’s quick to respond any & all questions, held our luggage in storage on day of checkout til night time, & porter brought to our vehicle @ 10:50 PM sharp as requested.
Simply a mega-superstar all around from day 1 before arrival up to final minute of departure. Is it the cheapest place around? Obviously not. They can’t be. What they’re providing doesn’t come cheap. And to be honest, when people like this roll out the red carpet the manner in which they do, it’s worth every penny. Believe me, we’re not rich & sacrificed a lot to make this happen. If this is anywhere near your price range or budget & it shows available in calendar, book it ASAP! If it’s not within your budget, do some extra overtime work & make it fit in your budget. You will not regret it.
This review may almost seem like I’m 1 of Mary’s family members or something. Believe me, I’m not. I’m a Cuban from Miami, FL & just hit the photo lottery jackpot w/ this property. Not a bad photo spot anywhere (literally), don’t care from what angle or spot. The small private pool is warm water, not hot tub. The other larger cave pool U have access to but shared w/ like another 4 residences is also kinda warm (not hot, but not cold either). The bathrooms are exquisite & hot water not an issue. A/C works magnificently well all throughout. Wifey & I slept like kings & queens. Kitchen is small but adequate w/ sink & fridge. They have Nespresso coffee maker + pods in kitchen. U name it, they’ve got it covered.
You may ask, do I have anything bad to say about this property? Well, I wish it were cheaper so I could visit more often. Other than that, not even a semi-bad comment I can say. The place is beyond amazing & the owner’s a well rounded superstar w/ a crew to match so what else am I gonna say other than if available, book it! You’re not gonna regret it! Thank U again Mary for all your attention to even the smallest of details. This experience will not be forgotten anytime soon. Can’t wait to go back home & be all braggadocious about this!
