The balcony at Lara and Denis's place is fantastic and the bottle of wine left for our arrival was a very nice touch! You can see the ocean from the bedroom/balcony, which is wonderful. The downtown area is also only a short Uber or Taxi ride away. The one bummer was that construction was incredibly loud during our stay. The building is undergoing a lot of renovations, particularly at the patio/pool area right below, which led to early morning wake-ups by drilling/ hammers/ power tools. Perhaps it's better on weekends (we stayed weekdays) but keep this in mind as well!
