I got a great deal on what I believe was the best room in the house. Stunning corner beachfront views. The place feels like a guesthouse, but I had all private amenities (kitchen, lounge area and bathroom). The building is old (part of the charm) and the room is refurbished, but has qualities that show its vintage (so expecting a 5 star hotel experience will make you disappointed). The location is unmatched, tiny walk to main parts of Hermosa, which felt safe at night for a female walking alone. But a few streets from the main promenade, so the noise was not an issue (the windows are thin, so you can hear people talking outside, but again, its part of the charm).

We got a large studio. Right on the stand. It’s an older building, yet super clean. Built in 1923, historical building… right on the strand. So don’t expect a modern kitchen/bath but clean and totally functional. It’s super charming. Right on the strand. Original hardwood floors, moulding, doors etc. We LOVED it. Jay is awesome. Super helpful and on top of it. The people there are super friendly and chill. Did I mention it’s right on the strand? Everything you need is literally 1-2 minutes walk. Hear the waves at night, people watch, enjoy the beach and great food nearby or cook in the kitchen. Sunset views, etc. Seriously, the location is unbeatable. Full fridge and stove.. whatever you need. Great TV and comfortable bed… oh and right on the strand.
