18.8/10 Exceptional! (170 reviews)
The property at puente vista is always well maintained and the views are priceless. The units are clean and well kept and ease of fishing is fantastic whether you have a boat or not. Very relaxing and gives that tropical feel. If you run across anyone everyone seems quite friendly. I am always looking forward to coming to island and staying here. It always feels like my home away from home.
