Breathtaking
We arrived and I was completely taken aback. The views are everything I had hoped they would be. I like to call this the inside-out house. All your best living is outside. The bedrooms were very spacious, the beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were large and scenic! We had daily house care from Luz. She was amazing, we even had her cook for us one night. Next time, we'll have her cook every night! Yes, you can walk from the bottom of the stairs over to the beach. I don't suggest driving to Turtle Beach. I also suggest an SUV if you are renting a car, we scraped the bottom of our Sudan and had to make an insurance claim. DO NOT LEAVE THE AIRPORT WITHOUT PESOS. Credit cards are not widely accepted outside of the city, and they don't take foreign currency. Stop at the grocer before leaving the city for staple provisions, but for fresh fruits and veggies, you'll have plenty of roadside stands on the way to the house. Not a touristy area so not many touristy things to do. You are never going to want to leave this place! There is not enough room to state all the wonderful things about this place!

The perfect vacation spot!
Casa Exotica was the absolute perfect paradise getaway for our family. The location is incomparable with views as far as you can see and a fun surf break right at your door. A short paddle across the estuary and were able to help release baby turtles to the wild at Playa Tortuga (check off the bucket list). Miguel and Luz Elena were there to help with anything we needed, they were amazing. Luz prepared two amazing dinners for us, so yummy! We will definitely be returning!

A secluded paradise
Right above the River and the end of Playa tortugas, this house sits perched above where the river meets the sea in a very exclusive and somewhat remote enclave of about a dozen houses in a well secured and guarded community. We visited with my wife and 1 and 3 year old boys and had the best time. Ask about paying extra to have meals cooked for you right at the house. The biggest downside of this place is when your vacation is over. We canāt wait to get back! Doris was beyond helpful and such a nice woman with a wealth of knowledge about the entire area. We all loved it and would highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a quiet and beautiful landscape.

Wonderful stay!
If youāre looking for something different, this is it! This was a wonderful experience for us. The house is beautiful, clean, fun and was accommodating for the 5 of us. Great ocean view, nice stairway down to the rocks, and short walk down to the pool. The cleaning crew was attentive and very generous. Communication with Doris was easy and quick when we had questions. Within hours of being there, my family and I were already planning our next trip back!
