Perfect for our family!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Clean, simple and awesome view. I love that the room was equipped with 2 queen beds in there so me and my kids could all be closer for our short 3ngt vacation. Sofa bed isnt very comfortable because the bar in the middle is felt thru mattress but we didn't need it for our stay. Condo is perfectly placed in the middle of El Matadors property so easy access to both pools and other amenities although we didn't use the other amenities or pool but its nice being in the center.Shower handle took some effort to pull and the deadbolt was difficult to lock and door hard to latch closed.When I go back I hope to be able to get this same unit! It has a cozy home family feel vibe.
