This expansive five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bathroom villa accommodates up to 12 guests, making it ideal for large families, milestone celebrations or multi-generation get-togethers.

Guest reviews
“Beautiful house, great service”
Beautiful house, great service, great amenities, the view was amazing. the area felt very safe. Thank you Alex for everything and always being so responsive when we needed anything. You were phenomenal.
“Our week in Casa Ilan Ilan was perfect. ”
Our week in Casa Ilan Ilan was perfect. A few hiccups with check in (let me stress this was not Zindis fault), they had a storm the night before knocking out power to the area so we were delayed checking in. However, we were guided to a good spot for lunch and got access to our house that evening. The house is beautiful, Alex the house manager was VERY attentive to our needs. He really made it the perfect experience for us. We celebrated a 50th birthday with 4 couples and it was the perfect house for that purpose. It's hot in July so the pool was a must, we loved it but brought our own floats and discovered on the last day that we actually didn't need to, there are floats in the laundry room (oops). Plenty of beach towels in the downstairs master too! I HIGHLY recommend the private chef (ask for Jeffrey), he made the perfect breakfast AND Dinner. Perfect house, location and stay. One note: although walkable to grocery and more: The hill to the house is killer on the legs ;)
“House was perfect”
The Casa Ilan Ilan with its 5 bedrooms and comfortable beds was perfect for our 11 person family group. The maids left the house very clean and the house manager was very responsive to our needs with extra towels etc. There was ample space in the living/dining areas inside and out for family activities and gatherings. One thing we do recommend on the website is to indicate that the entrance road, while steep, is paved, and it is really not necessary to rent 4 wheel drive vehicles to access this hillside residence. Thank you ZINDIS for an enjoyable stay.
“The house is exactly as advertised”
The house is exactly as advertised including pictures. The hosts were extremely responsive before, during, and after our visit. Hermosa Heights is a quiet and beautiful location. It is not a party community or town. If you are looking for a stress free and amazingly beautiful location which is close to the airport and party town (Coco), then this is your place.
