10/10
After 6 days at Octopus Garden, I did not ever want to leave, but with a sweet wife, two sons and four grandkids under 6 years of age at home, I realized that it was time after a full month in Mexico.
The room, while basic, was spotlessly clean, the bed comfortable, and unfailingly quiet.
The young volunteers from Europe, South Ameria and other parts were exceptionally well-mannered and friendly and hard working.
The kitchen produced terrific salads and meals; a wood fired pizza oven turned out great pies. Coffee drinks made to order, a gallery of native art and crafts.
Good restaurants, a fine marina, pickleball courts and good swimming beaches nearby, and with easy access to PV by bus, La Cruz has it all.
Yoga classes, Tai Chi, dancing, goodbye parties, and an eclectic mix of quiet dogs and cats rounded out a beautiful human experience.
Aruna, the proprietress, is a study in calmness, confidence, and skill in hosting guests at the Octopus Garden! I will be back next year for sure!
