"Overall, we did enjoy our stay at Boca de Cielo Apartments. The complex is about a mile from the Olas Oltas Beach area, which has many restaurants, shops, and convenience stores. There is nothing else closer so we did a lot of walking. We enjoy walking so that was okay with us but may be a deterrent for others. The view from the unit is great. Our check-in process was poor as the owner was supposed to send an email with directions on how to get into the apartment. The email never showed up...
