The Hidden Jewel - Stunning ocean view!
La Joya Escondida (the hidden jewel) is truly that. The house is situated up in the hills above Samara. We are a 3 minute drive to town and the beach. Enjoy the fresh breeze, views and quiet of being up in the hills. The treetop canopy is spread out before you all the way to the ocean. The Howler monkey's treetop network is quite literally your backyard. It's the best of both worlds. Float in the pool for some peace and quiet, when you want it. 3 minutes away, the beach and bustle of town.
