What an incredible home!
The home is like a 5 star hotel. But better. It has all the little personal touches that one should have in a home, and Ana is quite proud of her piece of paradise. Great finishes and fixtures.The area is quite after dark, excepting a few dogs here and there. All the beach tourists leave by dark ish.Ana offered to have Sara cook for us for a nominal fee. I was a bit skeptical, but really happy with the choice. She made us breakfast and late lunch everyday, and she even let us hover close enough to learn how to make a few dishes. Awesome.We did eat at a newer restaurant around the corner. Cute little family run operation with great shrimp tacos... and cheap. Dona Duvi.The stairs seemed a bit daunting to start... but with Saras cooking, it was a good way to burn some calories...lol. There is an elevator, which worked great for getting heavy bags to the 3rd floor.Smart TV in the master was great for the late night time.Pool was awesome. The upper deck has been really been improved from some of the VRBO pics. It now has a great pergola, and enough shade to stay up there all day regardless of temps. Nothing to improve there...Communication with Ana was top notch. She sent a ton of info on the areas attractions and restaurants etc.Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

It's hard to believe that such a big house can feel so cozy. I think that being split up into 4 floors makes the difference. 2 good restaurants next door and the cooks were well worth the extra money. We had a wonderful time and will probably come back.

The property is excellent. Gabby did a great job. Sarah also did a great job. Our great grand daughter learned to swim in the pool. We had a taxi driver named Leo who was an excellent guide and driver. We went to many excellent beaches. The local restaurants and the hotel up the street were all very good. Villa Rena Rubio is fantastic.

Perfect family trip
Absolutely stunning property overlookingthe beach. Appearance as pictures suggest but also larger than I expected. Rooftop patio with pool and unobstructed views of the ocean. The beach is quiet (even during Easter!) The kitchen is modern. We took the kitchen helper Sara and Paulina which was the icing on the cake making for truly relaxing vacation for our extended family of 8. Highly recommended. Extremely good value.

La Bocana is very beautiful. We loved the rustic feel it had but the home was beautiful and had everything we needed. We loved the cleaning ladies and pool guy. They were very polite and helpful. The house is honestly speechless on how beautiful it is and its view!!! The only thing was there were some neighbour dogs that endlessly barked some early mornings but the view and the place made up for it. The owner of the property was super helpful and answered my questions in a very timely matter. I hope we will come back to stay again soon.

Beautiful home on secluded beach
My husband and I (along with 3 other couples) stayed at this amazing house for 7 nights. All of the rooms were perfect for multiple couples traveling together. We had plenty of privacy and everyone had their own private bathroom. The beds are very comfortable and the entire house is very clean. The kitchen is large and well stocked. Sara (the housekeeper) is very sweet and worked very hard to make sure we had everything we needed. Ana is VERY good at communicating and offering advise on everything from restaurants to transportation and activities. We had our hot water go out due to high winds and she had it fixed within hours! The upstairs deck and pool area are fantastic in this house. We spent most of our days there. The beach in front of the house is very beautiful and quiet. We were surprised that there are still beaches in Mexico that are not over crowded. There is not much for night life in this area. There are a few good restaurants but no shops or stores. You need to take taxi's or vans into the main town to find more action. We did this several nights of our stay. The transportation is easy and inexpensive so it's not a big deal. Overall, I would highly recommend this property on your next visit to Huatulco!

She truly takes pride in her work, and the cleanliness of the property!! She also can whip up an awesome ceviche!!! Sara also came to work everyday with her beautiful smile!!!

Beautiful Stay at Villa La Nena Rubio
My extended family and I had a fantastic, two week stay at Villa La Nena Rubio. This is a beautiful property with massive views of La Bocana beach. The kids bedroom is small, but we only had to use it when some flights home were cancelled. The five additional bedrooms are large and each has fantastic views. The rooftop deck and pool just added to the feeling of being in paradise. Sara kept the home in immaculate condition and is very warm and friendly. We really enjoyed seeing her everyday. Gaby, the property manager, was very quick to respond with any questions we had. Unfortunately, two of my adult children were sick with high fevers and Gaby was able to get a trusted doctor who spoke English to come to the house and help them. Everyone recovered quickly and was able to enjoy the rest of the vacation. Ana, the property owner was also very helpful and able to respond to any needs or questions we had. My family has been to Huatulco many times and have stayed in hotels, villas, all inclusives, and condos. Each has their own advantages. We generally do not like to stay in the all-inclusive resorts in Huatulco because we love to go to the different beaches and restaurants in the area. La Bocana is different from other areas of Huatulco in that it is not as developed or crowded. Quiet evenings, uncrowded beaches, beautiful views and all of the wonderful things to do in Huatulco a few minutes away. Thank you, Sara, Ana, and Gaby for a wonderful stay!

Fabulous house overlooking the beautiful beach
Wow! Our family and friend group of 9 parents and adult children so enjoyed our week at this home where every detail was designed for our relaxation, comfort and enjoyment. Ana was so quick and helpful to respond to our questions and in steering us to the correct pharmacy for our required COVID testing before leaving to return to the US. Gaby was so attentive to making our stay special even cooking our seafood dinner one evening including local specialties. Sara and Gude cleaned the entire home daily and prepared a delicious breakfast and coffee for us. We spent many hours on the rooftop in the pool overlooking the bay and slept so comfortably in the beds listening to the ocean waves. The house is 20 minutes to the town but taxis were very accessible and affordable. We always looked forward to returning to our comfortable home in the small La Bocana Bay. We loved meeting the local fishermen, surfers, eating in the beachfront restaurants and having poolside massages Highly recommend this retreat-like house and look forward to returning soon.

Paradise on the beach!
Ana's house is spectacular! We had a group of 12 (plus one child) and the layout was perfect. Nearly all of the rooms feel like very spacious master suites with jaw dropping views of the ocean! The rooftop pool was fabulous to watch the sunrise, relax and enjoy the view of those surfing and boogie boarding in our group. Ana was beyond a pleasure to work with as were Gaby (property manager), Karen and Margarita (cleaner and breakfast cook). We were welcomed with open arms. They helped us organize an in home chef one evening, massages on the rooftop and even painting classes on the rooftop as well! The house itself is about 12-15 minutes from downtown restaurants, etc but was not at all a bother to us. The house and kitchen were so lovely we spent much of our time there. There are so many things to do in Huatulco and Ana made sure we knew everything available. From snorkeling to birdwatching to eating at nice restaurants. We stayed in 3 houses in Oaxaca over the course of 2.5 weeks and this was by far our favorite! We're already talking about a return trip!

Magical Stay at the beach
The stay was so relaxing. The house is HUGE and you can see the beach from the house which is so important. The views from the house were amazing. We arrived weary and travel worn and it was healing for our souls to rest and enjoy the home. The owner and the ones connected went above and beyond to make sure our stay was amazing. There will always be things that come up but they went above and beyond to take care of the details. We loved the pool on the top deck and plenty of seating to enjoy morning coffee or an evening meal. The beds were amazing and the a/c worked fabulously. Thanks for blessing us with such a wonderful time as we got to enjoy lots of chill time with family in the lovely Mexico.
