I stayed here for 3 months (2 months longer than expected) and I had an amazing time! The beach is only a couple minutes away and many of my days here were filled with learning to surf and playing beach volleyball, there’s also a bunch of other things to do and see. Low season was a great time to be here, it was often very laid back.
