The casita is located very close to the beach with great views from the balcony! There are about 6 cats next door but they were friendly. There are approximately 15 steps up to the property from the street. We were travelling with 2 babies in strollers so this was not ideal for us. The listing amenities includes a microwave but there wasn’t one. Gabriel was very easy to deal with & there were groceries waiting for us when we arrived late at night.
