incredible view and gardens
This house is beautiful, well maintained, with incredible gardens and view. the only draw back is the lack of bathrooms for the number of beds....one of the bedrooms off the kitchen is awkwardly located, and another is across the entire house from a bathroom. The staff is delightful, Christina is a good cook, and everyone was super helpful in arranging outings for a 3 generational family. We had a wonderful vacation at Casa Britto.

Awesome
My retreat group loved our stay at Casa Britto.. The home, the furnishings, the view, and the help that the owners, Zeida, David and the rest of the crew gave us every day starting with guiding us there, was top-notch. From the beautiful pool area and three dining areas (we couldn't believe the furnishings and artwork), to the roof and upper garden paths and the Zen little covered "lookout" with fireplace (amazing for meditating or yoga), we found our days at Casa Britto positively enchanting and I definitely hope to return.
