(on another local expat site recently) author: Looking for somewhere to relax, but at the same time 15 mins from beach or centre of town ! Try Cabaña Zen. alohacamp.com/property/wooden-eco-cabin-1479?_gl=1*1qakahn*_up*MQ..*_ga*NDUyNjQwNzc2LjE2ODg4MTMwMzg.*_ga_BH2YVRS4WR*MTY4ODgxMzAzNy4xLjAuMTY4ODgxMzAzNy4wLjAuMA.. Why don’t you rent it long term. You have half the people of the region looking for affordable long term rentals and I’m sure you’d have people lined up to rent it long term? Take away the summer stress, and offer for an affordable yearly rent. Honestly from experience, it’s a no brainer **** author: To be completely honest it is an option we are thinking of but being the first summer rental we have opted for summer rentals for now,as spoken to lots of people and they have had very bad experiences with long term, I think you had a bad experience too!? amongst the bad come the good. In 7 years we’ve had two bad tenants. When we did summer rentals, that was even worse. All of ours are now long term and to be honest, much less stress, just we got a bit comfortable and let out guard down, became to busy with everything else and got caught out. But long term, in my opinion, is much much better option, just have to be strict with who you accept. ****
