Descripción
=========
At the moment we are looking for some extra help during the busy month of July and August.
=========
We are Marlen (49) from Switzerland and Marco (59) from Peru with our two daughters 16 and 13 years old, and our four dogs and four cats. We opened this place in 2016 and have grown during the years to a guesthouse with 12 rooms, a restaurant and bar. We are just in front of the beach of Mancora, a few minutes away from the surfers point and the center of Mancora.
