“This was a great experience! The location of the studio is perfect-walking distance to everything. I also feel I got a good sense of everyday life by living in a neighborhood instead of a hotel. My room was very spacious with a wonderful cross breeze and the tile bath is especially attractive. The rooftop and pool are my favorite spots. I loved reading or eating breakfast and looking out over the ocean. My room also had a great ocean view. And then theres the food! Alicia’s cooking is spectacular! I loved having authentic  home cooking  I’m glad there was so much walking to or I’d have gained 10 lbs. Thanks so much to Alexandra, Manuel, Martin and Alicia for all your hospitality. Its been an unforgettable experience.”
