Vacation Rentals in Santa Monica

Very well designed, felt like an upscale hostel

the place was clean, remote, quiet, beautiful. the owner is a wonderful man who’s keen on taking the time to talk and very welcoming. the place feels special and it was amazing to spend some time there.

The location in Burgos and north coast was perfect. Ann the owner and hostess was such a nice lady. The room was very clean and on the beach.

It was wheelchair accessible for my needs

The apt was so nice. There were just a little bit of ants but other than that, all good.

The facilities were great, as expected. The little bungalows are all equipped with a mini fridge, a table and a little balcony, making them much more homey than a typical hotel room. The grounds are BEAUTIFUL. There’s fluffy grass, tons of plants and beautiful flowers, all under some twinkling outdoor lights along the path. If you walk a bit further into the property, there’s a whole garden with 10+ tables and benches under palm trees. It’s perfect for children or pets. The location is great, it’s a quick 10 mins walk to Burgos, where you can find restaurants and convenience stores. They rent scooters at the property and also have a gas station, which makes being able to get around so easy. You can drive to the different beaches around Burgos, which are less crowded and more wild and natural than the ones near General Luna. The staff was truly incredible. They were so kind and made sure all of our needs were taken care of. Needed a tuktuk to the airport? They’ll arrange it. Need laundry done? They will fold and deliver your clothes straight to your bungalow. Need to know where to go to print a document? They offered to do it for me by just emailing it to them. I could text them on WhatsApp at any time of the day and night and they would reply quickly and kindly, and answered all my questions and requests. Honestly, I hated the Philippines. I’m autistic and everything was too much, wrong and not what I’m used to. But I stayed over a month at Chris & Mar and finally managed to enjoy the beautiful island by feeling safe and comfortable at the homestay. When I left after my original reservation of 1 week to go explore General Luna, I immediately missed the nature, kind staff and clean and spacious rooms. I came back 3 days later even though I couldn’t get a refund on my (more expensive) General Luna homestay, and I’m a budget backpacker, but that’s how amazing Chris & Mar’s is.

Super clean and comfy, big room, private bathroom. There’s a coffee shop attached to it/part of the property. The host is wonderful! Will be staying here again

Its very spacious, clean room, the design is very traditional, and the owner is very accommodating and close to the main road.
