Absolutely a lovely little slice of bohemian beauty; smack right on the beach. A True rustic beauty that is on the beach but away from the madness of the main district of Zona Hotelera. Both restaurants on the property are lovely; Olivia has sensational, fresh breakfast and Agave on the beach for lunch is lush (fab tacos). Biggest brownie points go to the staff who are warm and kind and endearing, if you’re looking for something that feels truly local but safe and clean and extremely quiet and tranquil, this is it.
