“A great place to stay to see José Ignacio.”
+Fernando is an awesome host! He has a big laugh and a big heart. He has a tree right outside of his property that he puts half an orange and seeds to attract beautiful native birds. A cardinal landed while I was enjoying breakfast. He says watching the birds is his TV. He cooked a fish dinner my first night that was absolutely delicious, and the breakfasts are fantastic and huge. Great coffee, great fresh fruit, great bread, local spreads from different fruits. The room has an amazing view of this wild and rugged sandy beach, and the room feels like you’re staying in a cool Nantucket Beach House.
−More time there.
