Well stocked kitchen, bed is very firm but was ok. Location is great to go to the lagoon and many other places. Beautiful forested area with trails just down the street.

Classic cottage vibe

Sarah was responsive to my request to enter into the suite a bit early, which I appreciated as I was needing a rest between my flight and dinner plans. It was a bonus to be able to park my rental car out front for free. I also needed an iron which she promptly provided.The place is very cute, with a classic cottage vibe. A little too rustic for me, however. But I know people who would really enjoy this relaxed, private experience. It’s great to have access to a backyard sitting area. And because of its residential nature, it’s quiet. I will state that I woke up with a number of bites on my left arm. While at first I thought bedbugs, I now believe it was fleas. I know I didn’t have these bites before going to bed. It is possible they came from the plane, rental car, or the restaurant. Apparently the place is pet free. Upon leaving, I shared my concern with Sarah, and she immediately called her cleaner and they gave the place an extra cleaning. So I acknowledge her receptiveness to feedback and appreciate her diligence.
