The house is located on a semi-secluded beach between Punta de Mita and La Cruz de Huanacaxtle. The houses in this area are only accessible through a gated security check point, which made us all feel incredibly safe. There are probably about 24 houses in this area. The beach is very quiet (except for the crashing ocean) and about ¼ mile long. The beach and sand are lovely but it’s not the best swimming beach due to the rocks immediately off-shore. But it is well known for its surfing and we did manage to swim a few times.
As listed, the house has three master bedrooms, two up and one down and it was very hard to decide which one we wanted. All were ocean facing and each had its own benefits. All of the ensuites were large and airy as well as modern. In fact the whole house was very modern and comfortable. The house comes with everything you need including wifi, music inside/out, hair dryers, soap, towels and every kitchen tool needed.
There is plenty of room for dining or sitting inside and out and there is an outside dining area where we ate all of our meals as well as six lounge chairs by the pool. The pool and house are aligned so that you have an amazing view of the ocean and the incredible sunsets. There is also a large grass lawn which is great for playing or sitting on. There are no pool floaties so we brought our own.
The staff will handle all of the grocery shopping for you for a small fee and Miguel provides an extensive list of food choices. For an extra $100/day (plus groceries) Modé and Beto will stay and prepare and serve dinner for you and. We opted for them to take care of four evenindinners for us. For the breakfasts and dinners we wanted them to make traditional Mexican meals for us and they didn’t disappoint. Modé, our housekeeper and cook extraordinaire, made some fabulous food and was able to accommodate most of our dietary restrictions (gluten, dairy etc). We took care of our own lunches, but Modé was always happy to make us some guacamole or pico de gallo. Beto, the groundskeeper and maintenance man would cut down some coconuts and make us drinks right in the coconuts.
Modé is also responsible for keeping the house looking clean. Our bedrooms and bathrooms were always spotless and she always ensured we had fresh linens and towels. Having a washer and dryer was great as it allowed us to pack a lot less than we would have.
