Carmen is an amazing host! She is so sweet and helpful, giving us recommendations for eats and shopping. Her breakfasts are also a nice way to wake up in the morning. Having a pool at the house is a good option if you don't want to make the 40 minute trip to the beach. Her house is secluded, away from the main city center, which we were not aware of initially. It is quite a walk into the downtown shopping/restaurant area. We are young and active, though, so the walk wasn't too bad, but it's something to be aware of. The neighborhood is safe. Overall, we had a pleasant stay!
