Absolutely lovely space, we stayed here in Feb 2024 and can't wait to return! The room was spacious with a king size bed and had a large bathroom with twin sinks, soaker tub and a gorgeous tiled shower. Swimming is close by maybe 200m, in a sheltered bay. It's a public beach, but quiet. There is no lifeguard. Restaurants are close by, within 800m so an easy walk, but our host Jiscily makes such a wonderful breakfast that we gladly paid the extra. There is no scheduled garbage pickup in Boca, apparently, so don't be surprised if you see garbage on the streets, watch your step. There are foot washing areas near the entrance so you don't need to track sand upstairs. Thank you Olga and Jiscily for a terrific stay!

Wir haben sehr kurzfristig gebucht und ein superschönes, sehr großes Zimmer mit großem Badbereich und extrabreitem Bett bekommen, das zudem noch blitzsauber war. Das Frühstück wird auf der schönen Dachterasse mit Blick zum Meer serviert. Die Unterkunft selbst liegt nur wenige Meter vom Meer und einem kleinen Sandstrand entfernt (wenig touristisch, mehr Einheimische, aber trotzdem Liegen zum Mieten). Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit z.B. bei Währungsfragen oder der Bestellung eines Taxis zum Flughafen.
