Have vivid memories of our Jan 2019 arrival at Puerta Parasio a smiling Omar welcomed us, then walked us through to their outdoor restaurant, and seeing for the first time, and every time after for that matter, the spectacle the place and surrounding area is, and me thinking and then saying out loud, 'I feel like I'm in heaven yet I still feel so alive....'
Fast forward to Jan 2020, booking too late literally meant there was no room at the Inn for us (note to self: book early!), but we did spend an afternoon there, and again, just like the first time, there was the smiling Omar and the beautiful spectacle PP and area is, the same feeling..... and another one, I can breathe again!!!
If you love quiet, peace, solitude, wide open spaces, lack of people (those there are friendly!), delicious food and drinks, and comfortable very clean accommodations, then this is the place for you (as it is for us). Walking through its doors, any worries or cares were swiftly swept away, Omar and his staff took us under their wings, their efforts and the place itself so serene.....it almost felt like our own private place.....magical really...
Yes, there are people that come to visit for the day (as we did this time, but no one else was so we did not disturb anyone!!), but .... the place needs them, how on earth can it continue to offer what it does for what it charges with only 7 rooms??? And really, there's room enough for everyone (except by my poolside chair, thank you!), hammocks and lounge chairs galore spread across its expansive tree lined beach.
And the beach.....is always a challenge of mine wherever we go to walk the whole beach....did not happen here....it is endless!! And it is considerably more comfortable to walk it in the early morning and late afternoon, unless you like doing the mexican hot sand dance - aye yi yi!! And the ocean, so very pretty, while very wavey and potentially dangerous, very sparkly, and when the sun sets, even more beautiful! We didn't venture in it other than to get our feet wet but friends we met there swam in it every day, they being more accustomed to such conditions. So back to the pool we went!
As for the resort, the attention to detail and the level of workmanship (thank you to all those hardworking souls that placed all those stones in the cement) is all very impressive; the gorgeous wood tables and chairs, the rooms themselves, and lovely touches like the lit torches and bonfires at night (sooooo romantic) and breakfast at the respectable time of 9am or later, make it too good to be true. Jan 2019 we ate all (except for one dinner out) our meals there, we were so content to just stay put; there are enough choices and then some to choose from on their (reasonably priced) menu, and if you want something that's not on it, they'll do their best to make it for you too. And the drinks.....delicious.
This is one door we are definitely going to walk through again....with better planning next time too so we can experience this bit of heaven on earth once more :)))
