Flamingo Casita - Wander through a Garden Hideaway with Shared Pool

The grounds are beautiful and truly feel like a hideaway. The gardens are lush and full of butterflies, and there is a lovely greenhouse on the property (although guests are not permitted inside). The pool area was pleasant and clearly maintained as well as possible given the foliage and natural setting. The owners also have two friendly dogs, Chip and Coco. They do bark, but were approachable and sweet. It’s important to note that children under 12 are normally not allowed; however, our young daughter was permitted due to a miscommunication between the rental company and the owners. As listed, the space is shared with the owners and their sons, so it is not a completely private rental.The bungalow itself is charming and quaint but showing its age. It would benefit from some updates, minor repairs, and a deeper cleaning. The bed felt quite worn, with a mattress topper added for comfort. Windows are older single-pane units—some cracked or drafty—and a few would not stay open. Doors required effort to close due to sagging, and some locks were misaligned. The gas stovetop worked well, but the oven would not turn on. The kitchen exhaust fan was loud, and the refrigerator had a small leak that dampened some of our food items. There was also a noticeable mildew smell inside, so we ran the provided dehumidifier.At checkout it was pouring rain, and we were asked to leave in any case as another guest was arriving that day. This made departure feel rushed, and we got soaked.

Everything was absolutely wonderful in all aspects.

Elizabeth the host was great. I will miss the dogs. The property is amazing. We will be back.

This was the perfect stay! The casita, home, and property are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! The host and host pups are even better We loved our time here and spent most of it working and relaxing by the pool. The property is so gorgeous and unique! You can tell they truly love their home It is in a prime location!
