“Perfect Location”

Reviewed 16 Apr 2013

This property is very spacious and has a direct view to the ocean. The bed and pillows are very soft and comfy. The pull out couch was great for my two small boys. We very much enjoyed our stay!

Response from the manager Good Morning RObin, I was reading your review and i am happy that you enjoyed this unit 314 at the el matador and it was comfortable for you and your family. I know it is very convenient right there in front of the pool and also by the gazebo that takes you out to the beach. I am glad that you enjoyed everything and we will see you again next year. Thanks Chris.
