Nice Home in the Caracol

Very nice home in the Caracol with excellent views. The propane tanks for the fire pit and BBQ grille were empty. We were expecting bath/shower soap/shampoo, but none were provided. I guess you have to bring your own? I would recommend that a night shade be provided for the large window in the master bedroom sitting area. Otherwise, a very enjoyable stay!

The most beautiful home I have ever stayed at and the views were equally impressive!

Fantastic. Everything we needed was there already. Even had two 5 gallon bottles of fresh water, a bag of ice in the freezer, and a new tub of coffee for the mornings :-)

Great Stay - Will Return When Back in San Carlos

Nice property / Michael (host) was extremely responsive and helpful. Quiet area - great view - has everything you need. Was there on business / pleasure and found it to be a very nice stay. Suggestions for improvement - maybe update the directions to include “follow the number signs” to the property. The streets in this development are a little confusing if you have never been there - but the numbers are sequential and there are signs everywhere telling you which numbers are which way. Initial visit - so that was the only challenge upon arrival - but Michael was available via telephone to sort it out. Once at the property - was a great stay - stayed for one week.

Great vacation property

I visited with my husband and kids (ages 16 and 8) during spring break. San Carlos is a wonderful town- and the Caracol Peninsula is a quick drive to everything. The listing accurately shows both the beautiful house and the amazing views. The host was responsive and generous- they really thought of everything to make this an easy and relaxing trip. 5 stars!

About the host

Hosted by Michael J Boufford

Host profile image
We purchased the lot in 2004. We took our time building the home paying as we go. We spent our first night in our finished (paid for) home in 2014. We live in Phoenix AZ and get to our home as much as possible. Driving time from door to door is around 7 1/2 hours. We can not get enough of kayaking when we visit our home. I grew up in Florida around water and moving to the desert I missed the ocean. I found the love of my life in San Carlos Mexico and where the desert meets the sea was a bonus.
