First and foremost Donna is an amazingly thoughtful host; outstanding communication. We could not have asked for a better first stop on our holiday. The house was very clean, stocked with essentials, and comfortable. The environment was peaceful with a lot of bird life right outside the windows on this wonderful property. Great access to outdoor activities, whether it be beaches or forest. Good restaurants and food market nearby. Wish we could have stayed longer.
