Top Story is Top Shelf
Excellent accommodations. Lots of different spaces for everyone. Multiple balconies. AC works really well in each room. 3 flights of winding staircase but it’s part of the charm. Norma responds quickly to any concerns. We would stay again.

Family vacation
What a wonderful place! Large, airy beautiful apartment perfect for our family of 6. Super close to everything - the beach, shops, amazing street food vendors plus an amazing little taco right below. We cooked some great meals in the big kitchen. Norma was always available via email to answers questions, make suggestions and provide anything that was needed. Santa Cruz was great and felt very safe, our 3 teens were out and about on their own with no problems. We rented a car for exploring and parked on the street with no issue. Just a note that you are in the middle of town and the nighttime party buses can be pretty loud! We loved this place and would return without question.

Chris met us as we arrived, couldn't have been an easier or quicker check in process. Thx place is a gorgeous, authentically Mexican styled, open concept, private, breezy, nice lighting options, AC, excellent WiFi (though, who cares?!), bird song when you wake, sounds of nightlife (not very late), excellent proximity to the ocean, to the Chedraui,to townships, to other beaches with brilliant opportunities for snorkeling, scuba diving (Anfibios), swimming, paddleboarding.... loved every minute. Hated to leave. Excellent hosts, excellent abode. Can't say enough. Go enjoy!!!

Fantastic, but loud Vacation
Property is spacious and as described. Plenty of space for two families of three. Within walking distances of area resources and town center. Heat made us use local taxi. Norma and Chris were quick to respond to any issues we had. They even assisted with search for medical supplies; facilitating a amazon purchase and delivery. It went above and beyond support for vacation. Unfortunately, trip overlapped ‘Carnaval’, first since COVID. Although we witnessed unanticipated rich local customs and practices, we were also intimately exposed to five days of little sleep. Third floor view of grounds with Music & Barkers, concerts and celebrants) was challenging. Chris and Norma were apologetic about unanticipated scope of events. No information was available online . We would suggest avoiding property, unless planning to attend the events. Wifi speeds for Remote work was not available available. Desk space was not ideal. Overall we would recommend, property, hosts were wonderful.

Outstanding locale for us - family of 6 adults. Loved the bird-filled park/square across the street, and 1/2 hr walk to La Crucecita. So many semi (and totally) deserted gorgeous beaches within relatively short drives and hikes. The apartment is great, albeit a serious challenge for the mobility impaired. Comfortable beds, great amenities and great communication w Chris/Norma. Pretty noisy at night, although this may be reflective of Christmas holiday. In a word - fabulous! Would definitely return.

Location, spacious, authentic Mexico
Our host Norma was available to us for every query and help. The location was perfect and the spacious size with four bedrooms was just what we needed for our family get away. As the penthouse is old and authentic Mexican, some updates will be required but we were comfortable and happy.

Lots of Space, Great Location
The condo is huge and capable of sleeping 8 -10 people. It's on the third floor of a mixed use building in Santa Cruz. The condo is dated but has everything you need. Access can be a challenge as there is no lift and you must navigate a very tight circular staircase to get to the unit. There are not really any views as the other buildings block any sight lines save a few. The TV and internet were a constant issue. Many hours were spent without either as the service (?) in the area is so poor. The host did hire a service tech to stop by and fix but there really was no fix. Internet in other nearby locations was better (eg. Holiday Inn lobby next door). This was the biggest problem we had. The hot water was broken for 10 days of our visit but the host got it fixed as fast as possible (10 days). The neighbourhood people were pleasant and helpful. Area can be noisy at night as it's in such a popular location (people and cars). Perfect for the four of us as we each had our own bedroom. So great for larger groups. If internet and TV are important to you please discuss this matter with the host before booking. The host was pleasant to deal with and wanted our stay to be enjoyable. Host was willing to work with us during Covid times when the cancellation policy had to be more liberal.
