Oceanfront - Extraordinary Views

Villa Diamante sits atop a promontory with unobstructed 270-degree views. Your greatest dilemma will be deciding which of three breathtaking views to focus on: the dramatic south coast, the open ocean and its mesmerizing mix of blues, or the waves crashing on Remanso beach. Yes, the pictures are incredible, but they simply cannot do this property justice. The Villa Diamante views are simply unparalleled. More than one former guest is now my neighbor-I think that says it all. Recommend 4x4 SUV
