Great time in Rio del Mar
We had a great stay just blocks from the beach. The property had a lovely and comfortable backyard with the listed hot tub. There were beach chairs, beach towels, boogie board and a wagon to take it all there. The only thing missing was a sun umbrella, but we had a great time anyway as the mornings were overcast. Overall a comfortable and fun stay!
