Great house in great location

We like to stay near Two Step for snorkeling, and we appreciated being close to the store and restaurants. Wonderful lanai with spectacular view.

Very spacious property. I little hard to find in the dark as it is down a dark one lane road, but worth the adventure. All the conveniences of home. Great sunsets!

Secluded Gem in the Hills

For those who want to get away from the crowds this is a great secluded home that will give you the privacy you desire. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen are all modernized. Nice spacious house with a great view of the coast and pleasant vegetation.

We had a wonderful stay overall and really enjoyed our time at this property. The home is beautiful, well-kept, and the views are absolutely incredible. The large lanai was by far our favorite feature—we spent a lot of time out there enjoying the scenery, relaxing, and taking in the peaceful surroundings.A couple of things future guests may want to know. We booked this property believing it had air conditioning, but when we arrived, the house was warm and humid. There were dehumidifiers running, which we initially thought were AC units, but they were actually putting out warm air. We adjusted and were comfortable enough, but it wasn't what we expected based on the listing.The driveway is also very steep and can be a little intimidating at first. We were driving a Pathfinder and were fine once we got used to it, but I would be hesitant to drive a smaller sedan up and down it. Thankfully, the rain that had been forecasted toward the end of our trip never arrived, as I imagine the driveway could be more challenging in wet conditions.The only other issue occurred the night before checkout when the dryer stopped working. Fortunately, the groundskeeper who lives below the home was incredibly helpful and allowed us to use another dryer so we could finish our laundry before leaving.Those things aside, we truly enjoyed our stay. If you're comfortable with a mountainside location and a steep driveway, you'll likely love staying here as much as we did.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re so glad to hear you had a wonderful stay, enjoyed the beautiful views, and especially loved spending time on the lanai. We’d like to clarify that air conditioning is not listed as an amenity for the property, and the listing description specifically states that the home does not have AC. We do our best to make this information clear so guests know what to expect prior to booking. We were also happy to accommodate your request for a 3:00 PM late check-out at no additional cost, and we’re glad we were able to assist when the dryer unexpectedly stopped working. Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your experience. We’re happy that, overall, you enjoyed the home and its peaceful mountainside setting. LUVA Vacation Rentals

We were a group of four friends who very much enjoyed our stay in this cozy house with such a beautiful view.My only suggestion would be that you send directions earlier on the arrival day, but in the end we had no difficulty getting there and instructions were very clear.All in all the house was great.
