Awesome Playa Punta Negra Condo
This corner unit has an excellent view, the living room and open patio floor plan was perfect. Plenty of ocean breezes combined with the fans made it pleasant, we only used AC at night in the bedrooms.
Well equipped kitchen with dishwasher, washer and dryer available on request for longer stays (we did 9 days).
The beach is amazing. Very uncrowded, public access at the north end got a little busy on the weekend, but it was fun. Some table vendors and mainly locals. Swimming is great. Water was warm, waves fun for body surfing. Areas of the entry points into the water were a little rocky but doable, find the sand channels for an easy in/out.
The infinity pool is sweet. Huge and when we were there we basically had it to ourselves.
One of the things we were really looking forward to was the large palapas restaurant with breakfast and lunch service. We took a taxi into town every day ($120 pesos to romantica zone) and ate amazing food, grocery shopped, but having the option at the building was nice. Unfortunately the palapas is no longer standing due to the hurricane last October. They still did service though, you can order online too.
As another reviewer said it would be nice to see the patio furniture upgraded. That view with margaritas on the patio watching sunsets every night is a huge reason for booking this place.
Wifi was only really useable in the living room area where the modem and router are. A cheap upgrade to a mesh system would be thumbs up!
