I made it a point to visit the San Fabian Public Market, which presented an excellent opportunity to explore a diverse array of local delicacies, fresh produce, and regional delights. What's even more convenient is that Happy Ripples Beach Resort is situated just a short, less than 15-minute car ride away from this market. It's here that I could sample and acquire a variety of local specialties, enhancing the delightful dimension of my travel experience. I didn't want to let this opportunity pass, and made sure to relish the authentic flavors of the region during my stay.

If you are looking for a cheerful place to stay with your entire family, you can consider booking this colorful property. You won’t need to leave your fur babies behind either as it has a pet-friendly policy. You can fill up in the morning as breakfast is free, and unlimited coffee will keep you recharged throughout the day.

You can walk down to the water whenever you feel like taking a dip in the sea, and can easily rinse off any sand in the outdoor shower. As a grill is provided and tables are beautifully set outside, you can end your nights by munching on delicious barbecue dishes while listening to the waves.

In my opinion, this property is ideal for families with kids who can swim in the mini pool and have fun on the swings.

5. Angelita’s Beach House (from USD 18)

This property is a great choice if you are searching for a home away from home. On lazy days, you can pick up your favorite book and find a cozy corner in the sunroom, which offers beautiful views of the surrounding green trees.

If you have been wanting to disconnect from the outside world, you can leave your phone back in the room and meditate in the garden as waves break in front of you. In case you enjoy an occasional smoke, you can head to the covered seating in the garden and light a cigarette while watching ships sail by.

I feel this house is ideal for large groups and families who can use the outdoor areas and play fun games in the evening.

  • Property highlights: This rental boasts ample outdoor area where you can bond with your family over fun games after your beach excursions.
  • Nearest beach: The beach is a few meters away from the rental.
