Casa 579 has a prime location. It perched atop Santa Teresa with a stunning view of the city. The house is magnificent with spacious rooms and comfortable beds. The rates are cheaper compared to beachside neighbours.

Casa 579 is a relaxing place to stay. The rooms are lovely, well decorated and comfortable. There is lovely balcony with hammocks and a nice terrace with sun-loungers. The lounge area is spacious and perfect for a lazy day. A bit away from the town, it offers a restful undisturbed sleep. The staff were very attentive yet just leave us to do our thing.
