The home is in a residential neighborhood, but is a peaceful place to relax after exploring el centro. The home, grounds and pool were beautiful and had plenty of space for two families with children. Everyone enjoyed cooking at home, hanging out with the peacock, and swimming in the pool. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay - pool towels, cookware, Bluetooth speaker, hairdryers, etc. The host was also very helpful, checking in to make sure we did not need anything.
We found several good restaurants we could walk to nearby, but having a rental car was helpful to go to the grocery, for day trips, and to get downtown.
Would highly recommend.
We had a wonderful experience and the hosts were very accommodating and communicative. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, spacious house, beautiful landscaping and private pool. Highly recommended
