The location is amazing ! Being able to walk half a block in the morning for the best coffee or listen to a band and have a cocktail made for a different adventure each day. Great shopping. The pool is right out the front door, which is great. On the small side but refreshing. The beds were comfortable, I just wish the main bedroom had a king size bed in it. Overall we had a good time.

We stayed in this condo a couple years ago and loved the accommodations. We come to visit a friend who has a home in Greune and like to catch up with her and each other. We love the location and excellent conditions at El Grande Patio. And we especially appreciate the accommodating patio! This has been an annual trip for us and we hope to rent this condo next time as well!
