We had a very relaxed and quiet visit while at Puerta Azul. Loved how calm and quiet it is here. Caught up on sleep, reading, and work.

Nice place

The house was overall really nice and well kept, garage access was pretty tight and the neighbor kept their car in the driveway which made it tough getting in and out of but overall nice home in gated community with nice pools.

Very nice property in a beautiful location!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It’s located in a beautiful community and has been updated since our last visit with new paint, refinished kitchen cupboards, new tile flooring in the bedrooms and new furnishings inside and outside. The mattress in the master is amazing. It was very clean and the owner and property manager were very responsive to any questions/concerns. We would definitely recommend this property.

Great community!!

Thank you Michael for your patience with us the first day, attempting to get into the property. We could not follow directions and Michael help us out quickly, The property was clean and well stocked with anything you need. We did have a small problem but Damian came to the rescue and fixed the problem. The community was close to our family and things we needed to do, shopping and dining. We will stay again at any of Michael's properties . Thank you Dyroff Family
