Excellent stay
When we arrived there was a hiccup at airport / rental car. I was very concerned but called Thisbee. She calmed me, explained options, and was a trusted colleague. The owners went well above their “jobs” to assure our stay was perfect, and it was.

Lovely host! Difficult to get transportation as the property is located in a residential community outside of town. Only one dining option. The restaurant at the property only serves very small breakfasts, so you will need to go elsewhere for all other meals and food. Would be a better choice of stay if we had rented a car. We

Staying at Pura Vista Hotel was such an incredible experience. It is a very cozy hotel that has mesmerizing views and romantic atmosphere. It is very clean and set up comfortably. Only 10 minutes walk to the beach through a peaceful and quiet neighborhood, this very unique place made our vacation memorable. Definitely would want to come back!

The view is amazing, even better than the pictures. Everything is spotlessly clean and it's a very quiet neighborhood. The owners are very caring and very, very helpful with everything and anything. Most days we just lazed around by the pool and still slept for 10 hours each night.

The view is amazing, everything is super clean. With only 6 rooms, we don't have to deal with a crowded pool. Some of the wild birds are very friendly.

Disliked: Staff & service
OWNER reneged on hotels.com booking details
I booked this with Hotels.com and free breakfast was included in the booking. After checking in, the owner confused my booking with another, I had to switch rooms, did not get any toiletries at all during the stay. The owner, after stating that we would get the free breakfast, told me at breakfast the next morning that my breakfast was NOT free, because my room rate was so low. Very unprofessional, I notified hotels.com and they issued me a credit, but this owner clearly doesn't live up to his promises. Stay away.

Don't pass on this gem!
Flo is a wonderful host, he could not do enough to make sure your stay is a pleasant one. A bit out of the way, but close enough to get around . His food, his tips on what to do, he tries to help you any way he can. He advised me of a fabulous tour guide, and gave me a contact with a reliable cab driver. Would have no hesitations of staying here again. I made a friend with Flo! :)

Beautiful view! Exceptionally friendly and helpful host. Practical room, desk to work at, coffee maker. Good lighting. Very quite and peaceful. Can walk to Father Rooster. That’s about 1/2 mile and quicker going there down the hill than coming back up. Otherwise need to car to get around.
