We had a great time during our 9 days on Playa Seco. The house was better than the description and photos. Silvia was very helpful and some random guy driving by stopped and told us where we could watch baby Sea Turtles being released. Manual Antonio National Park is a must.

We had a great time going on the Mangrove tour ,Rainmaker forest and the catamaran tour. We dined at Avignon which has beautiful views of the mountains and ocean. We enjoyed our time on the beach watching the sunrise and sunsets
