We had a great time! The house is beautiful and served all purposes for which it was intended. It is a quick wall to the pool and to the beach; and to our other places to go when down there. We have stayed at condos many times, and the electric stoves had bad burners - but the house has a nice flat top surface - and all burners! That is important if you cook while you are there!It does need some updates - curtains in the bedrooms is a must, especially when sunrise is at 5:30 am! And maybe consider adding an additional mirror or 2 in the master bedroom as the only one is in the bathroom above the sink - a bit crowded with 2 getting ready.A good time had by all!
Great home located in a secure neighborhood in the Sandy Beach resort area. It is a short pleasant walk to a pristine beach and there is also a nice community pool & hot tub open to use. Our group had a great time here and really enjoyed the house, location & convenience of this home!
When we arrived we had problems with the lock box code it wasnât working and when I called the owner to ask for help he did not answer me on any of the numbers listed nor through the app I had to figure out the code myself by looking at my commitment letter turns out the code I was messaged was written wrong by one number. They also had ants in the front of the house going into the house and we could not access the laundry room which happened to be outside of the house and required a code when they finally called back and we had already successfully got into the house we asked about the laundry room code in which she referred us back to letter but that didnât have the code or instructions on it as she said it would and the code was not the same for the laundry room but we eventually figured out the extra key on the house key was for the laundry room overall just bad communication more like no communication thankfully we were able to figure it out on our own the ants never got addressed either besides that the house also did not have beach towels, games or throw blanketâs so I would suggest taking your own and the master bedroom sink leaks significantly when using it. Unfortunately I will no longer be renting the house again due to poor communication from the owner even when I booked the property it took a whole week to get a response back about some questions I had.
we have stayed in this same area several times over the years and we are never disappointed. The house was great....spacious and clean. Close to the beach and safe. We will be back for sure.
The transaction of the rental of Casa Blanca was transparent and easy. Victor was very communicative and responsive. We enjoyed our stay and wanted to stay longer. Will absolutely be returning
It was my buddies birthday and mine as well, we walked in to a Bottle of wine and a Birthday Cake!!! What an amazing welcoming gift that we did not expect. So appreciative!! Beautiful house house with a beautiful view of the ocean from both levels. You will absolutely love this experience and having great host like this. Security gates make you feel safe and only a few minute walk to the beach.
Fantastic week, would stay here again. Only complaint we have is the grounds security. There were 5 families from our town within Costa Diamante and 3 elsewhere in PP. we couldnât even have friends over HL for happy hour due to security. I understand the need and appreciate it honestly, but there needs to be a process for guests. Nothing to do with our home, just the development. Cheers!
The neighborhood is amazing and the house was beautiful but we ran out of toilet paper on day 2. We had 9 people and there was not enough towels so we had to go buy towels. We ran out of trash bags and paper towels on day 3 so had to go buy more. We also didnât have enough blankets for the beds upstairs. I paid extra to add 2 people and I had to buy all the stuff to stock the house.
This property has potential. Very pretty home, good location and very close to a really nice beach! Unfortunately, this house needs numerous repairs! The front door is damaged, most of the window coverings were broken, would not open blocking the views of the ocean. The bbq was broken and not usable. (We brought steaks for grilling) The lights in the kitchen kept going off and on although there were no power outages! I also thought the kitchen was poorly stocked. Plenty of plates, glasses and silverware. But no measuring cups, cookie sheets, colander etc. basically it is difficult to prepare meals. No bbq grill scrubber. Coffee maker needs the flat type of filters. This house would be amazing if was maintained. We still had a great time! Went out to eat for all meals
Overall the place was visually appealing, however for the $$ per night (and we have stayed at many for this price and above) if fell short on the following :
Towels-all sizes -corrected-initially has 2 hand towels, 2 wash clothes, 4 shower towels- not adequate for family of 5
Dryer- broken
Welcome kit-not there initially; mgmt notified and we received used contents-with little of contents left- your asked to tip housekeeper as this is a service they provide - mgmt should check to ensure lots are left otherwise remove that request
TV - upstairs TV does not have Dish; unusable- 2 local Mexican channels - intermittently
Unpainted patched holes in the wall; unused pictures in living space
Not enough drawer storage in master bedroom; there is a closet to hang thing; but most vacation clothes require a drawer- in my case anyway :-)
Should you decide to rent this house please take EVERYTHING- towels, beach towels, spices, hand towels, dish and dishwasher soap (welcome kit may not be there), and check dryer status - after 60 min cycle clothes were still wet - dried clothes on back rooftop where they could not be seen
The beach was awesome, as always and the local activities/amenities made kept us out a lot which was great.
Although your provided a list of things to bring, many times for properties at $300 or above they are stocked with a few things - please note this is not one of those properties....
The mgmt was nice enough. However this has taught me a valuable lesson of renting at the last minute .
Beautiful location
The furniture and kitchen items are very dated. Dishwasher didnât work at all. Overall cleanliness was lacking. Coffee cups all cracked, fry pans very poor condition. Ceiling fan/lights remote all have no batteries. Broken shower floor. No kettle. Glasses on bar have lots of dust.
Good from far, far from good.
6 people we all have the same review.
We had an amazing stay! The neighborhood is very nice, 24hr guards, and the hot tub and pool were great! A short walk to the beach, we brought our two dogs and they loved every minute! It was quiet and relaxing. The kitchen was stalked with all the untensils you could need, and made it easy to stay and cook 70% of our stay. We will be back!
We had a great time in this beautiful property and always felt safe here! Would stay here again and again!!!!
The beds were comfortable, nice towels, everything was clean.
** A few things just to know to make your stay a little more like home:
Dish washer wouldn't work, probably because of water pressure, but bring your own dish soap, because the dish soap that you can buy down there does not work well!!!
The house needed kitchen dish towels and wash cloths, drying rack and a broom and dust pan.
Overall it was fabulous and we loved it! Great great house!
Les points faibles : Emplacement et exactitude de lâannonce
Remotes batteries, rear exterior door and padio latch stuck, living room lights/fans
Remote for the TV batteries run down. We had to buy new batteries. The remotes for the overhead living room fans were confusing some were not work and none marked. Found extra mixed in pile of remote that we had no idea what they belong to. Lighting for livingroom was too dim. Kitchen missing dish towels. Would be nice to have a diagram showing where pots and pans, tableware and utensils were located upon arrival. It was different but eventually we found everything. We only found 1 trash bag for 7 people?
Don't get me wrong, we did enjoy our stay. There were just a few things that would have been nice to have fixed or identified. The beds, showers and bathrooms were awesome. Plenty of living space for 7 people.
