This has been an idyllic beach house for our family many times and it is a place we will return to often. Henner and Zene have created a wonderful oasis at Cristal Azul, it feels like your own place at the beach. Unrivaled privacy, incredibly comfortable and tasteful you do not feel like you are a tourist on vacation here. Especially with the care and attention you receive by your hosts and their staff. We love that the cabinas are meant for one thing, down time in the AC and sleeping, oh…and cool outdoor showers. Set apart from the rancho and pool, our group can have as much fun as they like in the Rancho (they have a professional pool table, nice touch) while others rest, and no one bothers the other. The pool is something you must dip yourself in to believe. It’s often a topic at dinner on cold winter nights. Cooking is a breeze, literally, on the grill overlooking the ocean and Z&H helped with veggies and fish if we couldn’t catch our own. Dinners and any food at their spot, LocosCocos, right on the beach is worth tossing out any plans to prepare lunches or dinners. It was our favorite food in the area (to note it’s a cool “lunch box” style joint with picnic tables right on beach serving typical local seafood from Henner’s grandmothers recipes…. it’s amazing, be prepared to spend days there). Finally, be sure you have 4WD but trust us it’s worth it. Cristal Azul is hands down one of our favorite places on the planet to visit.
