This spacious Casita is an excellent escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Tucans perch in the trees in front as you gaze at the Lake and Volcano. Hummingbirds abound, as we have planted their favorite flowers just off the patio. Parrots, Parakeets, Oropendula's, and even the elusive Mot Mot soar overhead, some stop for a taste of mango from the gigantic tree which stands stately on the front lawn. What are you waiting for?
