To all our preferred return guests: check-in as well as check-out is at any time you want, we will make it happen!

The space
You will always feel a breeze on the hill coming from Ensenada Honda Bay. Being a mile from the center of town and less than 2 miles from Flamenco Beach is a nice perk around here!

Your home away from home will be on the first floor of a gated 2 family villa, Casa Sunny, located on a very very steep hill overlooking Ensenada Honda bay. We live on the second floor with our 2 Boston terriers and take care of the property and our guests. Our doggies will always be gated upstairs and we accompany them for walks in the yard in effort to avoid interference with your relaxation! The villa has a private entrance and you can park anywhere on the street.

We can't stress this enough: The house is located on a very very steep hill so make sure you book your car or golf cart as soon as you possibly can!

The first floor of the villa consist out of 3 bedrooms with 2 queen beds and 2 twin beds that sleeps a maximum of 6. Each bedroom has its own AC and space to hang or store your clothing. We provide bedding, 2 pillows per guest, and extra blankets.

For the beach we offer beach towels, cold cups, a beach umbrella, some snorkel gear, and a few beach chairs (the number changes constantly but there's usually at least 2). We have an outdoor (cold water) shower on the deck and there's additional foot towels to help you keep sand outside.

There is one bathroom in the house with a shower and a wall-mounted hair dryer and one outdoor (cold water) shower on the deck. We provide our guests with at least hand soap, body wash, and shampoo, but we add other amenities in the bathroom from time to time based on availability. The bathroom is stocked with bath towels, hand towels, face towels, and a few extra rolls of TP, but we recommend to buy more if you think you will need more.

The living room has a ceiling fan and you will find that there is almost always a breeze coming from the bay that flows through the kitchen and living room area. The living room has a 55" Smart TV for streaming content, listening to music, and it has a few free apps and channels as well. Wi-Fi is available throughout the house.

The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs, please take a look at the photos of the listing to see everything we have to offer. You will usually find the kitchen stocked with basic amenities including coffee, sugar, salt, spices, and other food items. There is a fridge with freezer top in the kitchen with ice cube trays. We provide a gallon (sometimes 2) of drinking water you can use for the Ninja Coffee Maker. Do let us know if you need any specific items stocked in the house, but please do so at least 7 days in advance of your stay.

You will have privacy at Casa Sunny with plenty of seating outdoors around the house. There's a tall wall at the front and back of the property, but you still have the view on the south-east side of the house overlooking Ensenada Honda bay.

You may find us working in the yard, in the laundry room in the backyard, or taking our little Bosties Luca and Leela out for a walk. We love to interact with our guests whenever we can, but we mostly keep to ourselves not only to give you privacy and time with your friends or family, but because we have full time telecommuting jobs Monday through Friday that keeps us pretty busy. Regardless, we always find the time to tend to the needs of our guests.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

BEACH ~ One beach towel per guest, inquire about snorkel gear and other things you think you may need at the beach.

The grocery store Costa del Sol is only 100ft down the hill from Casa Sunny if you need groceries or anything specific such as sunscreen, bug spray, or other items during your stay, but note that THE HILL IS VERY STEEP so walking back to the house from the store may be a REAL CHALLENGE!

Other things to note
CURRENT PRICING
At this time we are able to guarantee a lower nightly rate to all of our preferred return guests - you will pay the same nightly rate than your previous stay, but only when staying for 4+ nights. For our first-time guests we offer weekly discounts.

Transportation - BE AWARE!
WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU HAVE/BRING OR RENT A VEHICLE
Be sure to reserve a vehicle for the duration of your stay in advance! Casa Sunny is on a VERY steep hill and will very likely not enjoy your stay without transportation, we can promise you this! In the event that all rental vehicles are fully booked on the island we can provide you with contact information of Taxi's BUT be prepared to wait half your vacation time if you want to get from point A to point B and all guests in the group MUST WEAR A MASK when using taxi's on the island.

Confirm your booking - QUESTIONS TO ANSWER
We ask all new guests to answer a few questions. We will not confirm booking until we received answers to all of our questions. It would be nice to know more about you and your guests, in fact, it may be the deciding factor whether or not we accept your booking. In addition to the basics, if we do not receive answers to our questions or at least a response that indicates you will answer within 24 hours from the initial inquiry, we will unfortunately not be able to accept your booking. Airbnb hosts are taking great risks by opening their home to strangers (YOU) so please be kind and answer a few questions so we can feel more comfortable sharing our home with you! Our RETURN GUESTS of course have no need to answer the questions again.
Here are the Questions so you can be prepared to answer them:
1. Are you over 24?
2. Have you read our house rules?
3. Have you been to Culebra before? This more or less gives us an idea of how we can best assist you before and during your stay.
4. Do you agree to access the digital Casa Sunny TouchStay Welcome Book we will send to the phone number you have saved on file with Airbnb? We send it out upon booking confirmation and the contents may just answer all of your questions and give you a wealth of information about the island.

Violating House Rules - EXTRA GUESTS!
If you bring in extra guests we will charge you a fine of $300 per person per night for guests in excess of 6 persons (excluding infants and children under the age of 2).

Horses, roosters & dogs - NOISY SOMETIMES!
There are free roaming horses, pigs, and especially roosters that are all over the island and seems to be confusing street lights with the sunrise, so take note of the potential for noise. If you are sensitive to sounds like these, we recommend that you bring ear plugs!

Recommendation - CASH!
Bring cash to use at shops and some restaurants. There is one ATM in town but it is not guaranteed to have cash 24/7.

Grocery stores - ACCEPTS CARDS!
Grocery stores accepts cards at this time but MAY REVERT TO CASH in the event of a power outage! Note that many stores and restaurants may not yet be open, so the usual limitations of the island may seem intensified. Reconsider your stay if you are not OK with the current limitations on the island. Follow the island's coconut wireless page on social media and feel free to ask questions that locals may be able to answer for you, or just keep track of what's going on at the moment. We will do our best to keep you updated and informed of important events.

IF YOU PLAN ON TAKING THE FERRY!
The seas are rough during December/January and may prompt ferry cancellations. Additionally, the ferry is in general not very reliable so we do not recommend taking the ferry. We won't accept your booking or request to book if you are not flying in to Culebra UNLESS YOU CONFIRM that you will not cancel your reservation due to ferry cancellation or limitations.

Have any questions? - OUR WELCOME BOOK COVERS IT ALL!
We send all of our guests a digital Welcome Book (using TouchStay) upon confirmation of booking. Please take your time to review as it contains a lot of helpful information from travel recommendations, ferry schedules, contact information of captains to schedule your boat day, restaurant and bar locations and hours, information on the house, and other information we think our guests may find helpful. AND IT INCLUDES YOUR CHECK-IN INSTRUCTIONS! If your profile has a fake phone number or a number no longer in use, be sure to provide your REAL phone number at the time of booking. If you don't, WE WILL DECLINE/CANCEL the booking for security reasons.

CONGRATULATIONS! You have read our entire listing and we really appreciate it. Please start your inquiry with "I am a preferred guest" and we will pre-approve your request to book if you wish to do so!
