Traveled with four kids from 17 to 28 years old. The location of the house fit everyone’s desires. Two and a half blocks from the Malecon, literally right in the middle of the Art District, 15 minute walk to beautiful beaches, and more. Our kids loved the freedom of coming and going as they pleased, very safe area. The house was perfect for the six of us, beds were comfortable, rooftop terrace to watch fireworks, garden patio with soaking pool/jacuzzi to cool off in. Plenty of common spaces to gather and visit or to get away for some quiet time. Fidel is a wealth of knowledge - take advantage of what (and who) he knows! He setup a day of fishing for my husband and sons, they caught two very large mahi-mahi, the boat captain cleaned and cut beautiful fillets for us, we brought them next door to the restaurant Melissa and they prepared it five different ways...incredible! Yadi was wonderful, our 17 year old had a mishap with some enchilada sauce on a shirt he and I both worked on it, left it in the laundry sink to soak, when we came back later in the day it was spotless and hanging on the clothes line, it was a miracle that she got it clean. The owners Guy & Patricia are equally as helpful, they called us a few times to check in to be sure we were comfortable and to give us suggestions from restaurants to beaches, entertainment to massages and things not to miss like the Botanic Gardens. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay at Casa Romance Escondido again! Thank you!
