La mayor parte del tiempo lo dedicamos a Cosito, Señorita, Nube y Simón, los peluditos de la casa :3 todos super tiernos, solo cuidado con Nube porque sale corriendo 🤭 yo iba por ella en bici para más fácil y se regresaba solita. Las demás actividades son de limpieza: ordenar el patio, limpieza de áreas comunes, habitación de los huéspedes, etc. Javier y Amanda son increíbles personas, te reciben con mucho cariño, sin duda alguna, una increíble experiencia.

Javi y Amanda son una familia hermosa. Ya extrañamos mucho a Señorita, Cosito, Nube y Simón, todos nos hicieron parte de su hogar. Tienen un hogar maravilloso, todo lo acordado se respeto, nos dieron de más, para mí fue un lugar hermoso, no hubiera disfrutado San Pedro de esa manera, fue, gracias a ellos. Estoy muy agradecida y ahora los llevo en el corazón viajero... Nos vemos en México 💜🫂
