Blow Hole Villas, Oracabessa

This ocean front property is full of surprises. First, it is literally surrounded by tropical woodlands. This unusual place derived its name from the waterspouts produced by the waves, which push up water through holes in the rocks. The natural pools will also thrill you; they can be reached by steps specially provided for that purpose. All the rooms are attractively outfitted with wicker furniture to add to that tropical elegance. The wrap-around balconies add an allure all their own to this charming property. Not to be forgotten is the fantastic view that this property affords its guests. A flat rate of US$2,500 per week is charged for the property. For added information contact the owners at: Jack & Nancy Connell, 1171 Green Street, San Francisco, CA 94109, USA. (Tel/Fax: 415 929 8863).
